Connection structure between terminal and electric wire
A connection structure between a terminal and an electric wire includes: a terminal with a tubular shape continuously having an electric wire connection part with a bottomed tubular shape and an electrical contact part; and an electric wire having a plurality of core wires and an insulating sheath for coating the plurality of core wires, the plurality of core wires being exposed from the insulating sheath by peeling off the insulating sheath at an end part, and the plurality of core wires being inserted into the electric wire connection part and being press-fastened. The plurality of core wires exposed at the end part of the electric wire) are integrally joined to form a core wire bundle, and the core wire bundle is inserted into the electric wire connection part and is press-fastened.
1 . A connection structure between a terminal and an electric wire comprising:
a terminal with a tubular shape continuously having an electric wire connection part with a bottomed tubular shape and an electrical contact part; and
an electric wire having a plurality of core wires and an insulating sheath for coating the plurality of core wires, the plurality of core wires being exposed from the insulating sheath by peeling off the insulating sheath at an end part, and the plurality of core wires being inserted into the electric wire connection part and being press-fastened, wherein
the plurality of core wires exposed at the end part of the electric wire are integrally joined to form a core wire bundle,
a serrated part is formed on an outer surface of the core wire bundle in contact with the electric wire connection part, and
the core wire bundle is inserted into the electric wire connection part and is press-fastened.
2 . The connection structure according to claim 1 , wherein
the plurality of core wires exposed at the end part of the electric wire are integrally joined to form the core wire bundle having a rectangular cross-section.
3 . The connection structure according to claim 2 , wherein
the electric wire connection part is formed to have a bottomed cylindrical shape, and
an outermost length of a diagonal line of the core wire bundle having the rectangular cross-section is equal to or shorter than a diameter inside the electric wire connection part.
4 . The connection structure according to claim 2 , wherein
recesses are formed at positions of the electric wire connection part which face each other, and
when the core wire bundle, which has been joined to have the rectangular cross-section, is inserted into the electric wire connection part and the core wire bundle and the electric wire connection part are press-fastened, the electric wire connection part having the recesses is press-fastened such that at least a part of an upper surface and a part of a lower surface of the core wire bundle are recessed inwardly.
5 . The connection structure according to claim 1 , wherein
the plurality of core wires exposed at the end part of the electric wire are integrally joined to form the core wire bundle having a circular cross-section.
6 . The connection structure according to claim 5 , wherein
the electric wire connection part is formed to have the bottomed cylindrical shape, and
a diameter of the core wire bundle is equal to or shorter than a diameter inside the electric wire connection part.
