  • Terminal connector and electric wire with terminal connector
    Patent number: 8430700
    Abstract: An electric wire with a terminal connector includes an electric wire and a female terminal connector crimped onto a core wire exposed at the electric wire. A female terminal connector has a wire barrel having a surface to be applied to the core wire. The surface has a plurality of recesses formed therein. Each recess has an opening edge. The opening edge of the recess includes first opening edges that are parallel to each other. The first opening edges are arranged to overlap with each other in the extending direction of the electric wire so that the first opening edges are present over the entire length of all over the plurality of the recesses on the crimping portion in the extending direction of the electric wire.

  • Terminal connector and electric wire with terminal connector
    Patent number: 8337262
    Abstract: An electric wire with a terminal connector includes an electric wire and a female terminal connector crimped onto a core wire exposed at the electric wire. A female terminal connector has a wire barrel having a surface to be applied to the core wire. The surface has a plurality of recesses formed therein. Each recess has a parallelogram-shaped opening edge. The opening edge of the recess includes a pair of first opening edges that are parallel to each other and a pair of second opening edges that are parallel to each other and different from the first opening edges. The recesses are spaced in the extending direction of the first opening edges and are spaced in the extending direction of the second opening edges.
