Method for manufacturing connector
View Patent ↗In order to avoid cost for accommodating a shield wire in a housing while bending, and smoothly and readily accommodate within the housing while the shield electric wire is insulated, a conductive housing 1 including a rear wall 4 continuing to an annular wall 3 , and a tube wall 5 continuing to down the rear wall 4 , a method comprising the steps of: passing through a shield electric wire 2 from a lower opening 5 a of the tube wall of the conductive housing to a front opening 3 a of the annular wall while bending the shield electric wire; putting a shield terminal 9 movably around the shield electric wire from top of the shield electric wire; exposing a core wire 2 b and a braid 2 a of the shield electric wire by stripping a tip thereof; connecting an L-shaped terminal 11 to the core wire; mounting an L-shaped insulation inner housing 12 outside the L-shaped terminal; connecting the shield terminal to the braid; and accommodating a vertical part 14 of the inner housing within the conductive housing by pulling in the shield electric wire in an direction contrary to that of the shield electric wire having being passed through, so as to project a horizontal part 13 of the inner housing from the front opening.
1. A method for manufacturing a connector having a conductive housing including a rear wall continuing to an annular wall, and a tube wall continuing to down the rear wall, the method comprising the steps of:
(a) passing a shield electric wire from a lower opening of the tube wall of the conductive housing to a front opening of the annular wall while bending the shield electric wire;
(b) putting a shield terminal movably around the shield electric wire from top of the shield electric wire;
(c) exposing a core wire and a braid of the shield electric wire by stripping a tip thereof;
(d) connecting an L-shaped terminal to the core wire;
(e) mounting an L-shaped insulation inner housing outside the L-shaped terminal;
(f) connecting the shield terminal to the braid; and
(g) accommodating a vertical part of the inner housing within the conductive housing by pulling the shield electric wire in an direction contrary to that of the shield electric wire passed through, so as to project a horizontal part of the inner housing from the front opening.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the shield terminal is provided with an annular part brought into connection with the braid, and a plate extending from the annular part and including a projection with a bore, the method further comprising:
(i) thread-fastening the shielded terminal to the rear wall of the conductive housing by inserting a bolt through the bore of the projection.
3. The method according to claim 2 further comprising:
(j) placing an insulation outer housing provided with a conductive shield shell therewithin outside the horizontal part of the inner housing; and
(k) bolting a flange of the conductive shield shell and a flange of the outer housing to a flange of the annular wall of the conductive housing.
4. The method according to claim 3 further comprising:
(l) putting a wire seal around the shield electric wire before passing the shield electric wire through the conductive housing;
(m) moving the wire seal along the shield electric wire after placing the outer housing outside the horizontal part of the inner housing, to put the wire seal within the tube wall of the conductive housing; and
(n) holding the wire seal by a holder.
5. The method according to claim 1 ,
wherein the shield electric wire is passed from the lower opening of the tube wall of the conductive housing to the front opening of the annular wall while the shield electric wire is bending along a slope of the rear wall.
6. The method according to claim 1 ,
wherein the vertical part of the inner housing within the conductive housing is pulled by the shield electric wire from the lower opening of the tube wall of the conductive housing.
