Abstract: Core shield pipes and one collectively encasing braided shield tube are fixed and electrically connected using a metal bracket and a metal clamp. The metal bracket has two semi-circular members formed by dividing a circular plate sized to be covered by the collectively encasing braided shield tube into two parts. Semi-circular pipe insertion grooves are provided side by side at intervals on facing sides of the semi-circular members to face each other and the core shield pipes are inserted respectively into the pipe insertion grooves. The collectively encasing braided shield tube is mounted to cover the outer periphery of the metal bracket formed of the semi-circular members and the metal clamp is fastened to the outer periphery of the collectively encasing braided shield tube.

Abstract: A battery terminal comprising first and second tightening plates continuous with an open free end of an annular electrode-engaging portion into which a battery post is inserted; and an electric wire-connecting portion continuous with the first tightening plate or the second tightening plate or the electrode-engaging portion, in which the first tightening plate is moved toward the second tightening plate to close the free end of the electrode-engaging portion so that the battery terminal is fixed to the battery post. In the above construction, a nut is tightened downward on the bolt to move the sliding contact portion downward along the inclined portion so that the first tightening plate is moved toward the second tightening plate.
