In a terminal-equipped electric wire in which a first barrel of a crimp terminal is crimped to a core wire exposed portion of an electric wire, a second barrel of the crimp terminal is crimped to a covering portion of the electric wire, and an anticorrosive portion is formed at least in an opening portion between the first barrel and the second barrel, an adhesive member is arranged on an outer peripheral surface of the covering portion, a base member and adhesive layers of the adhesive member are held in an elastically deformed state by being crimped by the second barrel, the inner adhesive layer of the adhesive member adheres to the entire circumference of the outer peripheral surface of the covering portion, and the outer adhesive layer of the adhesive member adheres to the entire circumference of an inner peripheral surface of the second barrel.

A terminal-equipped electric wire includes: an electric wire in which a conductor is covered by an insulating cover; a crimp terminal including a conductor crimping portion crimped to the conductor exposed from an end of the insulating cover, a cover crimping portion crimped to the insulating cover, and an intermediate portion that couples the conductor crimping portion and the cover crimping portion and in which the conductor is exposed; and a anticorrosive material covering at least the conductor exposed in the intermediate portion. The intermediate portion has grooves that are provided on a surface on the conductor side and formed from both end portions in a circumferential direction such that each of the grooves is formed toward a center side in the circumferential direction.

The present disclosure provides embodiments of insulated compression-type electrical connectors used to connect one or more branch wires or conductors to one or more run wires or conductors.

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.

The present invention provides a connecting terminal for connecting a wire, including: a body; a clip portion extending from both sides of the body and configured to hold a conductor of a wire; and a fixing part extending from both sides of the body, including: a clamping part configured to clamp an insulating layer of the wire; and a stopping part formed on the clamping part and configured to abut the terminal position assurance device to enable the connecting terminal to be fixed in the housing when the connecting terminal is mounted in the housing of the connecting assembly. Since the fixing part has both a clamping part for clamping the wire and a stopping part forming an appropriate height difference with the wire, the connecting terminal provided by the present invention becomes more compact and miniaturized.

A terminal includes a bottom wall having a through hole, a pair of sidewalls disposed on a pair of sides of the bottom wall, and a first elastic arm extending from a first side of the through hole in a direction away from the bottom wall. The sidewalls and the first elastic arm contact a pin inserted into the through hole.

A terminal with a connecting end, a midsection, and a crimping end is disclosed. The midsection is adapted to prevent damage to the terminal. The connecting end is configured to be received in a housing. The crimping end is configured to be connected to a substrate. At least two of the connecting end, the midsection, and the crimping end are conductive and formed as a single, unitary component.

An electrical connector consists of a connector housing (10) and at least one electrical contact element (1). The connector housing (10) and/or the electrical contact element (1) have a lead content of <0.1 weight percent. A method for manufacturing a contact element from a blank which has a lead content of <0.1 weight percent, uses the following method steps: Loading the blank into a manufacturing machine; producing a pin region or a socket region for electrically contacting another, opposite contact element; producing a fixing region for fixing the contact element in an insulating body; producing a crimp region for electrically connecting a conductor to the contact element or finishing the crimp region if the blank has already been previously prepared on a different machine; and removing the finished contact element from the manufacturing machine.
