  • Patent number: 6528731
    Abstract: A flat shield harness includes a flat harness including a plurality of first conductive cores arranged in parallel and an insulating cladding which clads the first conductive cores; a thin film sheet having a thin film conductive layer; and an electric wire including a second conductive core and a second cladding which clads the second core. The thin film sheet is wound around the outer periphery of the flat harness with its ends superposed in a width direction of the flat harness, the electric wire is superposed on the ends, and the conductive layer at the ends of the thin film sheet at the ends is bonded to the second core. In this configuration, the flat shield harness can surely dissipate externally the noise which is about to invade the core of an electric wire and suppress an increase in the cost in the wire harness to be assembled.
