  • Publication number: 20230307859
    Abstract: Provided is a female terminal. The female terminal includes a spring member and a terminal main body. The spring member is electrically connected to a male terminal to be connected. The terminal main body includes a base portion which has electrical conductivity and is electrically connected to the spring member. The base portion has a pair of side walls spaced apart by an insertion space that is inserted with a part of the male terminal. The spring member is arranged between the pair of side walls in the base portion, and the spring member is fixed to the side wall with a conductive welded portion with which the spring member is conductively welded to the side wall.

  • Publication number: 20230133056
    Abstract: A terminal-equipped electric wire includes a terminal and a coated conductive wire, which are electrically connected to each other. A crimp part of the terminal is a part that crimps the coated conductive wire and includes a conductive wire crimp part crimping a conductive wire exposed from a coating on a tip-end side of the coated conductive wire, and a coating crimp part crimping the coating of the coated conductive wire. The coated conductive wire includes a tension member disposed in an approximate center of a cross section, and a conductive wire including a plurality of conductors disposed on an outer periphery of the tension member. The tension member includes a plurality of strands. The conductive wire is crimped at the conductive wire crimp part from the entire circumference of the circumferential direction of the conductive wire. Preferably, a tensile strength of the tension member is greater than that of the conductive wire.

  • Publication number: 20230070010
    Abstract: A terminal-equipped electric wire includes a terminal and a coated conductive wire, which are electrically connected to each other. A crimp part of the terminal is crimped to the coated conductive wire, and has a conductive wire crimp part, which is crimped to a conductive wire that is exposed from a coating on the front-end side of the coated conductive wire, and a coating crimp part, which is crimped to the coating of the coated conductive wire. On the front-end side (terminal body side) of the conductive wire crimp part, an electric wire holding part, which applies a relatively strong holding force on the conductive wire, is provided, On the rear-end side (coating crimp part side) of the conductive wire crimp part, a conductive part for achieving conduction with the conductive wire is formed.

  • Patent number: 11289289
    Abstract: The problem to be addressed is to provide a highly safe and compact switch that is adapted to improvements in portability, weight reduction and size reduction of machines, or the like. An operating part has a button covering the upper part of a cylindrical housing that receives a downward pushing operation and a rotational operation. A contact unit part has contacts which open by being coupled to the downward pushing operation of the button. A twisting coil spring is disposed on the interior of the button, one end being joined to the housing, and the other end being joined to the button. A latch part disposed to the interior of the twisting coil spring, has a plunger coil spring that expands and contracts in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the downward pushing operation, and when a downward pushing operation is performed on the button, causes a sliding rod to slide along an inner wall of the housing while being displaced in the direction of the downward pushing operation.
