Crimp-style terminal
View Patent ↗A crimp-style terminal ( 10 ) which includes a base plate ( 13 ); a conductor crimp unit ( 12 ) which is formed, to have a substantially U-shaped cross section, from a pair of conductor swage pieces ( 14 ) which extend to both sides of the base plate ( 13 ) and are swaged to encase conductors (Wa) of a wire (W), the wire being arranged on the inner surface of the base plate ( 13 ), and which is crimped and connected to the terminals of the conductors (Wa); and a plurality of serrations ( 16 ) which are on the inner surface of the conductor crimp unit ( 12 ) and which are formed from cylindrical concave sections having identical radii. The depth of the serrations ( 16 ) formed at the rear end-side inner surface of the conductor swage pieces ( 14 ) is shallower than that of the serrations ( 16 ) formed at the front end-side inner surface of the base plate ( 13 ).
1. A crimp-style terminal, comprising the following:
a conductor crimp unit formed into substantially a U-shape by a base plate and one pair of conductor swage pieces extended on both sides of the base plate and swaged so as to encase a conductor of an electric wire disposed on an inner surface of the base plate, and crimped and connected to a terminal of the conductor;
a plurality of serrations formed from cylindrical concave sections having identical radii in an inner surface of the conductor crimp unit;
an electrical connection unit integrally formed on a leading end of the base plate via a leading-end side coupling unit and electrically connected with a mating side terminal; and
a coating swage unit integrally formed on a trailing end of the base plate via a trailing-end side coupling unit and swaging a part with coating of the electric wire, wherein
in the above configuration, the depth of the serration formed in a trailing-end side inner surface of the conductor swage piece is set shallower than the depth of the serration formed in a leading-end side inner surface of the base plate.
2. The crimp-style terminal according to claim 1 , wherein
the depth of the serration formed in an inner surface of the conductor swage piece is set shallower than the depth of the serration formed in an inner surface of the base plate.
3. The crimp-style terminal according to claim 1 , wherein
the conductor crimp unit is formed from a leading-end side crimp unit positioned on the leading-end side, and a trailing-end side crimp unit positioned on the trailing-end side; and
the depth of the serration formed in an inner surface of the trailing-end side crimp unit is set shallower than the depth of the serration formed in an inner surface of the leading-end side crimp unit.
