Abstract

A wire harness includes a coaxial conducting wire including a plurality of high voltage paths which are coaxially aligned, a covering member, accommodating the coaxial conducting wire, and a terminal, connected to one of the high voltage paths disposed outside of another one of the high voltage paths, and including a tubular portion coaxial to the coaxial conducting wire. The terminal includes a connection tubular portion as the tubular portion, a crimping tubular portion connecting the one of the high voltage paths to the connection tubular portion by crimping, and an outside connection terminal integrated with the connection tubular portion.

Claims (15)

1. A wire harness, comprising:

a coaxial conducting wire including a plurality of high voltage paths which are coaxially aligned;

a covering member, accommodating the coaxial conducting wire; and

a terminal, connected to one of the high voltage paths disposed outside of another one of the high voltage paths, and including a tubular portion coaxial to the coaxial conducting wire,

wherein the terminal includes a connection tubular portion as the tubular portion, a crimping tubular portion connecting the one of the high voltage paths to the connection tubular portion by crimping, and an outside connection terminal integrated with the connection tubular portion.

2. The wire harness according to claim 1 , wherein

the coaxial conducting wire further includes a shield member that is formed by metal and is coaxial to and disposed outside the plurality of high voltage paths.

3. The wire harness according to claim 1 , wherein

the covering member is formed from a metal tubular body covering the coaxial conducting wire or a resin tubular body covering the coaxial conducting wire.

4. The wire harness according to claim 3 , wherein

the covering member has a bend pipe portion configured to be bent during routing and a non-bend pipe portion continued to the bend pipe portion and configured not to be bent during routing.

5. The wire harness according to claim 1 , wherein

the coaxial conductive wire includes an insulator located between the high voltage paths,

one of the high voltage paths disposed outside of another one of the high voltage paths is made up of a plurality of conductive strands, and

the strands are spirally twisted on an exterior surface of the insulator.
