  • Patent number: 9590324
    Abstract: A terminal-equipped electrical wire includes: a covered electrical wire in which an outer periphery of a core wire including a plurality of element wires is covered by a cover portion; and a terminal portion that is provided to an end portion of the covered electrical wire and that is configured as a terminal by exposing the core wire from the cover portion and providing a connection hole to the core wire. At the terminal portion, the element wires of the core wire are divided into two divided sections, the tip of each of the divided sections is folded back toward a base portion in order to form the connection hole, a conductive member is arranged between the divided sections, and a resistance welder is used to configure the terminal.

  • Publication number: 20150099406
    Abstract: A structure for joining an electric wire and a connection terminal by a resistance-welding is provided. The electric wire includes a core wire made of metal. The connection terminal is made of metal different from the metal of the core wire. The core wire includes a melt-joining portion configured to be resistance-welded with the connection terminal. The melt-joining portion has an inclined surface which is inclined so that a thickness of the core wire becomes larger toward a base-end side from a thinnest part of the melt-joining portion along an extending direction in which the core wire extends.
