Terminal and wire with terminal
A terminal to be connected to a front end part of a wire in an extending direction is provided with a terminal body for sandwiching the wire, and a slide member slidable with respect to the terminal body along the extending direction of the wire. The terminal body is formed by a worked metal plate material and includes a sandwiching portion for sandwiching the wire. The sandwiching portion includes a first holding protrusion formed by folding the metal plate material on a side edge intersecting the extending direction of the wire, projecting toward the wire and configured to contact the wire and a second holding protrusion formed to be located forward of the first holding protrusion in the extending direction of the wire by folding the metal plate material on a side edge along the extending direction of the wire, projecting toward the wire and configured to contact the wire.
1. A terminal to be connected to a front end part of a wire in an extending direction, comprising:
a terminal body for sandwiching the wire; and
a slide member slidable with respect to the terminal body along the extending direction of the wire,
the terminal body being formed by a worked metal plate material, the terminal body including a sandwiching portion having a first sandwiching piece and a second sandwiching piece for sandwiching the wire between the first sandwiching piece and the second sandwiching piece,
the sandwiching portion including:
a first holding protrusion formed by folding the metal plate material on a side edge of the first sandwiching piece intersecting the extending direction of the wire, projecting toward the wire and configured to contact the wire; and
a second holding protrusion formed to be located forward of the first holding protrusion in the extending direction of the wire by folding the metal plate material on a side edge of the first sandwiching piece along the extending direction of the wire, projecting toward the wire and configured to contact the wire, and
the slide member including a pressurizing portion for pressing the sandwiching portion toward the wire.
2. The terminal of claim 1 , wherein the first and second holding protrusions are disposed at an interval in the extending direction of the wire.
3. The terminal of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first or second holding protrusions has burrs formed by working the metal plate material and is formed to contact the wire with the burrs projecting toward the wire.
4. The terminal of claim 1 , wherein the sandwiching portion further includes a third holding protrusion formed by folding the metal plate material on a side edge of the second sandwiching piece along the extending direction of the wire, projecting toward the wire and configured to contact the wire.
5. A wire with terminal, comprising:
the terminal of claim 1 ; and
a wire to be connected to the terminal.
