Abstract

A shielded cable fixing structure includes a shielded cable that includes an electric wire, a braid for covering the electric wire, and a sheath for covering the braid, an insulation housing that receives a terminal fitting electrically connected to the electric wire, a pair of split shield shells in which the insulation housing is mounted, a groove-shaped portion press-formed on a section of each of the split shield shells to cover a wire lead-out port of the insulation housing, from which the electric wire is led out, and is recessed on an outer surface of each of the split shield shells, and a braid fixing member fixed on an annular mounting groove constituted by the groove-shaped portions of the split shield shells, in a state where the braid is disposed between the annular mounting groove and the braid fixing member.

Claims (8)

1. A shielded cable fixing structure, comprising:

a shielded cable that includes an electric wire, a braid for covering the electric wire, and a sheath for covering the braid;

an insulation housing that receives a terminal fitting electrically connected to the electric wire;

a pair of split shield shells that is formed in a half-cylindrical shape, and in which the insulation housing is mounted;

a groove-shaped portion that is press-formed on a section of each of the split shield shells to cover a wire lead-out port of the insulation housing, from which the electric wire is led out, and is recessed on an outer surface of each of the split shield shells along a circumferential direction of the electric wire extending therethrough; and

a braid fixing member that is fastened and fixed on an annular mounting groove constituted by the groove-shaped portions of the pair of the split shield shells fitted and fixed to each other, in a state where an end portion of the braid is disposed between the annular mounting groove and the braid fixing member.

2. The shielded cable fixing structure according to claim 1 , wherein the pair of split shield shells include a first split shield shell for covering a portion of a section of the insulation housing, which is intended to cover the wire lead-out port, and a second split shield shell for covering the other portion of the section of the insulation housing, which is intended to cover the wire lead-out port, and a body portion of the insulation housing.

3. The shielded cable fixing structure according to claim 2 , wherein a positioning boss is provided on an outer surface of the insulation housing and is engaged to a positioning hole provided on the second split shield shell.
