[0009] [Description of Embodiments of the Invention] First, embodiments of the present invention will be described by way of examples. The shielding receiving member of the present invention, (1) A plate-shaped main body portion extending in a circumferential direction with both ends of the circumferential direction facing each other, the main body portion having an outer circumferential surface in contact with a shield portion of an electric wire and an inner circumferential surface in contact with an outer sheath of the electric wire, a concave portion recessed in the circumferential direction is formed at one of the two ends of the circumferential direction of the main body portion, a convex portion protruding in the circumferential direction and arranged inside the concave portion is formed at the other of the two ends of the circumferential direction of the main body portion, and the main body portion has a first locking portion and a second locking portion bent from the outer circumferential surface side to the inner circumferential surface side. The first locking portion and the second locking portion respectively extend from one end serving as the one end side along the circumferential direction to the other end serving as the other end side, and are arranged along an axial direction intersecting the circumferential direction, one end of the first locking portion is located at the bottom side of the recess, the other end of the first locking portion is located at the top end side of the convex portion, one end of the second locking portion is located closer to the opening end of the recess than one end of the first locking portion, and the other end of the second locking portion is located closer to the base end of the convex portion than the other end of the first locking portion.

[0010] According to the above structure, the shield of the electric wire can enter the first locking part and the second locking part respectively. In addition, the first locking part and the second locking part can be respectively sunk into the outer skin of the electric wire. Thus, the shield receiving member can hold the electric wire. Furthermore, according to the above structure, when the convex part is arranged inside the concave part between the two ends of the main body in the circumferential direction, the other end of the first stopper part and one end of the second stopper part can be discontinuous or continuous without a large interruption in the circumferential direction when viewed from the axial direction. Therefore, the above structure can reduce or eliminate the interruption of the wire holding force between the two ends of the main body in the axial direction, and can achieve an improvement in the wire holding force.

[0011] (2) Preferably, the second locking portion is disposed on both sides of the first locking portion in the axial direction. According to the above structure, the first locking portion and each second locking portion can firmly and stably hold the electric wire.

[0012] (3) Preferably, the second locking portion has a flat surface along the axial direction on the inner peripheral surface side, and the first locking portion has a sharp or curved protruding surface on the inner peripheral surface side. According to the above structure, the shielding part can easily enter the second stopper, and the shielding part is stably held by the second stopper because the second stopper is arranged on both sides of the first stopper in the axial direction. In addition, since the protruding surface of the first stopper can be firmly sunk into the outer skin, the displacement of the outer skin (electrical wire) relative to the shield receiving member can be restricted.

[0013] (4) Preferably, the width dimension of the first locking portion in the axial direction is smaller than the width dimension of the second locking portion in the axial direction. According to the above configuration, even if the main body is small in the axial direction, a sufficient separation space between the first locking portion and the second locking portion can be ensured within the axial width of the main body, thereby achieving excellent space efficiency.

[0014] (5) Preferably, the recessed portion has the bottom in the axial center portion of the one end portion of the main body portion, and has the open ends at the two axial ends of the one end portion of the main body portion, the recessed portion is a shape in which the bottom and the open end are connected by a concave inclined surface, the convex portion has the top end in the axial center portion of the other end portion of the main body portion, and has the base end at the two axial ends of the other end portion of the main body portion, the convex portion is a shape in which the top end and the base end are connected by a convex inclined surface, one end of the second locking portion is arranged at a position overlapping with the concave inclined surface when viewed from the axial direction, and the other end of the second locking portion is arranged at a position overlapping with the convex inclined surface when viewed from the axial direction. According to the above configuration, the first locking portion and each second locking portion can be arranged with good space efficiency within the axial width of the main body, thereby contributing to the axial miniaturization of the main body.

[0015] (6) It may also be a shielded connector, which comprises: a shield receiving member of any one of the above (1) to (5); an inner conductor terminal connected to the core wire of the electric wire; a dielectric body that accommodates the inner conductor terminal; and an outer conductor terminal arranged on the outer peripheral side of the dielectric body, the outer conductor terminal having a crimping portion, the crimping portion clamping and crimping the shielding portion between the shield receiving member, and the first locking portion and the second locking portion are clamped by the crimping portion.

[0016] According to the above structure, the shielding part can enter the first locking part and the second locking part respectively by the tightening force of the crimping part, and the first locking part and the second locking part can be sunk into the outer skin. Therefore, even if the main body is small in the axial direction, the wire holding force can be improved, which can contribute to the axial miniaturization of the outer conductor terminal.

[0017] [Details of Embodiments of the Invention] Specific examples of the present invention are described below with reference to the drawings. The present invention is not limited to the examples, but is indicated by the claims, and is intended to include all modifications within the meaning and scope equivalent to the claims.

[0018] <Implementation Method 1> The shield receiving member 10 of the first embodiment of the present invention is a cylindrical member that receives and supports the shield portion 92 of the electric wire 90, and is a member commonly referred to as a "sleeve". The shield receiving member 10 constitutes a part of the shield connector 60. In the following description, the front-back direction is not shown except for the front-back direction. Figure 5 The left side of each figure except for the left side is the front side. The front-to-back direction is equivalent to the length direction of the wire 90, and is sometimes called the axial direction. The up-down direction is Figures 1 to 4 and Figure 6 The up-down direction is used as a reference. The up-down direction is not necessarily consistent with the vertical direction of the shield connector 60 when it is mounted on a vehicle or the like. The circumferential direction refers to the direction intersecting (orthogonal to the axial direction in detail), and unless otherwise specified, it refers to the circumferential direction of the shield receiving member 10. In the accompanying drawings, the reference symbol "X" indicates the front-to-back direction (axial direction), and the reference symbol "Y" indicates the circumferential direction. The arrow "Y" in the figure corresponds to the top.

[0019] (electric wire) The electric wire 90 is a shielded electric wire, such as Figure 1 As shown in the figure, it comprises a plurality of conductors 91, a shield 92 surrounding each conductor 91, and an insulating sheath 93 covering the outer periphery of the shield 92. An insulating member 94 is arranged between each conductor 91 and the shield 92. In the case of the first embodiment, two conductors 91 are twisted together to form a twisted pair. Each conductor 91 is a coated electric wire in which a core wire 95 is covered with an insulating coating 96.

[0020] The front end side portion of each conductive wire 91 is exposed without being covered by the shield 92, the outer skin 93, and the insulating member 94. At the front end portion of each conductive wire 91, the insulating coating 96 is stripped off and the core wire 95 is exposed.

[0021] In the case of the first embodiment, the shielding part 92 is a braided wire obtained by braiding conductive wires into a cylindrical shape. The front end side portion of the shielding part 92 is a shielding tip portion 97 that is folded back toward the outer peripheral side of the outer skin 93. Figure 2 As shown, the shield receiving member 10 is interposed between the shield top end portion 97 and the outer skin 93 .

[0022] (Shielded Connector) like Figure 1 As shown, the shield connector 60 includes a shield receiving member 10, an inner conductor terminal 50, a dielectric body 40, and an outer conductor terminal 30. The structure of the shield receiving member 10 will be described in detail later.

[0023] The inner conductor terminal 50 is made of conductive metal, and a pair is provided corresponding to each of the two wires 91. The inner conductor terminal 50 is electrically connected to the core wire 95 of the wire 91, and is mechanically connected to the insulating coating 96 of the wire 91. In addition, the inner conductor terminal 50 has a square cylindrical box portion 51 electrically connected to a counterpart inner conductor terminal (not shown).

[0024] The dielectric body 40 is made of synthetic resin and is composed of a detachable first dielectric body 41 and a second dielectric body 42. The first dielectric body 41 is arranged on the upper side of the second dielectric body 42, and has cavities (not shown) on both sides thereof for accommodating the inner conductor terminal 50. The second dielectric body 42 is a cover-shaped member that closes each cavity opened downward. The dielectric body 40 has the function of maintaining the inner conductor terminal 50 and the outer conductor terminal 30 in an insulated state.

[0025] The outer conductor terminal 30 is made of conductive metal and is composed of a first outer conductor terminal 31 and a second outer conductor terminal 32 disposed below the first outer conductor terminal 31. The second outer conductor terminal 32 has a surrounding portion 33 surrounding the outer periphery of the dielectric body 40 and a strip-shaped extension portion 34 extending rearward from the rear end of the lower wall of the surrounding portion 33. The surrounding portion 33 is electrically connected to the outer conductor terminal of the other shielded connector (not shown). Figure 3 As shown, the extension portion 34 is arranged on the outer peripheral side of the shield tip portion 97 .

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 1 , the first outer conductor terminal 31 includes a mounting portion 35 mounted on the rear of the second outer conductor terminal 32 and a crimping portion 36 connected to the rear of the mounting portion 35. The crimping portion 36 includes a base 37 extending continuously from the mounting portion 35 and a plurality of barrel pieces 38 protruding from the left and right sides of the base 37. Figure 3 As shown, three cylindrical pieces 38 are arranged alternately in the front-rear direction at both left and right ends of the base 37. The crimping portion 36 is bent into a cylindrical shape during the crimping process. Each cylindrical piece 38 is wound around the outer circumference of the shield tip portion 97 and the extension portion 34 during the crimping process.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, a plurality of claws 39 are formed in a circumferential arrangement at the rear end of the crimping portion 36. Figure 2 As shown, each claw portion 39 is bent radially inward from the rear end of the base portion 37 and is arranged to face the shield receiving member 10 from behind. Each claw portion 39 restricts the shield receiving member 10 from falling off from the outer conductor terminal 30 to the rear.

[0028] (Shielding receiving member) The shield receiving member 10 is made of conductive metal and has a main body 11 bent into a cylindrical shape (see Figure 4). The main body 11 is in the shape of a strip plate and has a certain width dimension in the front-to-back direction. A concave portion 12 that is triangular in shape when viewed from the radial direction is formed at one of the two ends of the main body 11 in the circumferential direction (in the left-right length direction in the unfolded state), and a convex portion 13 that is triangular in shape when viewed from the radial direction is formed at the other end. That is, the concave portion 12 is a shape that is concave in the circumferential direction at one end of the main body 11, and the convex portion 13 is a shape that is protruding in the circumferential direction at the other end of the main body 11. The concave portion 12 and the convex portion 13 are shapes that can fit into each other.

[0029] When the main body 11 is bent into a cylindrical shape, Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 1 , the two ends in the circumferential direction are opposed to each other, and the convex portion 13 is arranged inside the concave portion 12. Figure 3 As shown, the inner peripheral surface of the main body 11 is arranged along the outer skin 93 of the electric wire 90 and can contact the outer skin 93. The outer peripheral surface of the main body 11 is arranged along the shield tip 97 of the electric wire 90 and can contact the shield tip 97.

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, the recess 12 has a bottom 14 at the center of the width direction of one end of the main body 11, and has open ends 15 at both ends of the width direction of one end of the main body 11. In addition, the recess 12 has a pair of concave slopes 16 extending from each open end 15 to the bottom 14 in a tapered shape.

[0031] The convex portion 13 has a tip 17 at the center of the width direction of the other end of the main body 11, and has base ends 18 at both ends of the width direction of the other end of the main body 11. In addition, the convex portion 13 has a pair of convex inclined surfaces 19 extending in a tapered shape from each base end 18 to the tip 17. The opening angle of each convex inclined surface 19 is set to be the same as the opening angle of each concave inclined surface 16.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, the main body 11 has a top end tapping surface 21 on the outer peripheral surface on the side of the top end 17 of the convex portion 13, which is inclined in the direction of reducing the wall thickness toward the top end 17. In addition, the main body 11 has an opening end tapping surface 22 on the outer peripheral surface on the side of each opening end 15 of the concave portion 12, which is inclined in the direction of reducing the wall thickness toward the opening end 15. Since the main body 11 has the opening end tapping surface 22 and the top end tapping surface 21, the elastic reaction force of one end and the other end of the main body 11 can be suppressed, and the cylindrical shape of the main body 11 can be easily maintained.

[0033] The main body 11 has a first locking portion 23 and a second locking portion 24 arranged side by side in the front-rear direction. The second locking portions 24 are arranged in pairs on both front and rear sides of the first locking portion 23 in the main body 11. The first locking portion 23 is formed to extend in the circumferential direction and Figure 3As shown in FIG. 1 , the serration shape (rib shape) is bent from the outer peripheral surface side to the inner peripheral surface side (radially inner side) of the main body 11. Figure 5 As shown, the first locking portion 23 has one end 23A as a closed end at a position close to the bottom 14 of the recessed portion 12 on one end side of the main body 11 in the circumferential direction. Figure 4 As shown, one end 23A of the first locking portion 23 is disposed adjacent to the distal end striking surface 21 in the circumferential direction on the outer peripheral surface of the main body 11 . The first locking portion 23 has another end 23B as a closed end at a position close to the tip 17 of the protrusion 13 on the other end side of the main body 11 in the circumferential direction. Figure 5 As shown in FIG. 1 , the other end 23B of the first stopper 23 is in a triangular convex shape when viewed from the radial direction in a manner corresponding to the top end 17 of the convex portion 13 on the inner circumferential surface side of the main body 11. The first stopper 23 extends continuously from the one end 23A to the other end 23B in the circumferential direction. Figure 3 As shown, the first locking portion 23 has a triangular (V-shaped) cross-sectional shape and has a protruding surface 25 that protrudes sharply radially inward on the inner peripheral surface of the main body portion 11 .

[0034] The second locking portion 24 is formed similarly to the first locking portion 23 and extends in the circumferential direction. Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1 , the serration shape (rib shape) is bent from the outer peripheral surface side to the inner peripheral surface side of the main body 11. Figure 5 As shown, the second locking portion 24 has one end 24A as a closed end at a position closer to the opening end 15 of the recessed portion 12 on one end side of the main body portion 11 than one end 23A of the first locking portion 23. Figure 4 As shown, one end 24A of the second locking portion 24 is arranged at a position overlapping the concave inclined surface 16 when viewed from the axial direction (front-rear direction). like Figure 5 As shown, the second locking portion 24 has another end 24B as a closed end at a position closer to the base end 18 of the protrusion 13 on the other end side of the main body 11 than the other end 23B of the first locking portion 23. Figure 4 As shown, the other end 24B of the second locking portion 24 is arranged at a position overlapping with the convex inclined surface 19 when viewed from the axial direction. Figure 5 As shown, one end 24A and the other end 24B of the second stopper 24 are inclined relative to the front-rear direction on the inner circumferential surface of the main body 11 in a manner parallel to the concave inclined surface 16 and the convex inclined surface 19, respectively. The second stopper 24 extends continuously from the one end 24A to the other end 24B in the circumferential direction without interruption. Figure 3 As shown, the second locking portion 24 has a trapezoidal (square U-shaped) cross-sectional shape and has a flat surface 26 that is horizontal along the front-rear direction on the inner peripheral surface of the main body 11 .

[0035] like Figure 5As shown, the front-to-back width of the first stopper 23 is set smaller than the front-to-back width of the second stopper 24. Within the front-to-back width of the main body 11, a separation space 27 is formed between the first stopper 23 and the second stopper 24 and between the front and rear ends of the main body 11 and the second stopper 24 at intervals that are uniform or nearly uniform and exceed the front-to-back width of the second stopper 24.

[0036] (The role of shielding receiving components and shielding connectors) When assembling the shielded connector 60, Figure 4 As shown, the main body 11 of the shield receiving member 10 is arranged on the outer peripheral side of the outer skin 93. The main body 11 is bent into a cylindrical shape, and is arranged in a manner that the convex part 13 is fitted into the inner side of the concave part 12. In the cylindrical main body 11, the bottom 14 of the concave part 12 and the top 17 of the convex part 13 are opposite to each other in a butt-jointed manner, and the concave inclined surface 16 and the convex inclined surface 19 are arranged in a manner that they are in contact along an inclined direction intersecting the axial direction. Figure 6 As shown, one end 23A and the other end 23B of the first stopper 23 are arranged at a distance L1 in the circumferential direction. In addition, one end 24A and the other end 24B of the second stopper 24 are arranged at a distance L2 in the circumferential direction. On the other hand, when viewed from the axial direction, the other end 23B of the first stopper 23 and one end 24A of the second stopper 24 are arranged at a distance L3 that is sufficiently smaller than the above-mentioned distances L1 and L2 in the circumferential direction.

[0037] from Figure 4 Starting from the state shown in FIG. 1 , the front end side portion of the shield portion 92 is folded back, and the shield tip portion 97 is arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the main body portion 11. Furthermore, the crimping portion 36 of the first outer conductor terminal 31 is crimped to the outer peripheral surface of the shield tip portion 97. Figure 3 As shown, at the lower end side of the shield connector 60 , the extension portion 34 of the second outer conductor terminal 32 is disposed on the outer peripheral surface of the shield tip portion 97 , and each barrel piece 38 of the crimping portion 36 is crimped to the outer peripheral surface of the extension portion 34 .

[0038] like Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the shield tip 97 crimped to the crimping portion 36 enters the concave openings of the first locking portion 23 and each second locking portion 24 on the outer peripheral surface of the main body 11. In particular, since each second locking portion 24 corresponds to the front-to-back width of the flat surface 26 and the opening width is larger than the first locking portion 23, the shield tip 97 enters more. Therefore, even if a pulling force or the like in the rear direction acts on the shield tip 97, the shield tip 97 is restricted from falling off between the crimping portion 36 and the shield receiving member 10.

[0039] In addition, the protruding surface 25 of the first locking portion 23 and the flat surface 26 of each second locking portion 24 are arranged so as to sink into the outer skin 93 of the electric wire 90. In particular, the protruding surface 25 of the first locking portion 23 arranged in the central portion in the front-rear direction of the main body 11 can be firmly sunk into the outer skin 93 by its protruding shape. Therefore, even if a pulling force or the like in the rear direction acts on the outer skin 93, the outer skin 93 (electrical wire 90) can be restricted from falling off from the inner side of the main body 11.

[0040] As described above, the main body 11 is bent into a cylindrical shape, and when the convex portion 13 is arranged on the inner side of the concave portion 12, when viewed from the axial direction, the circumferential distance L3 between the other end 23B of the first stopper 23 and the one end 24A of the second stopper 24 is sufficiently smaller than the distance L1 between the circumferential ends of the first stopper 23 and the distance L2 between the circumferential ends of the second stopper 24 (see FIG. 2 ). Figure 6 Therefore, the serrations of the first locking portion 23 and each of the second locking portions 24 are discontinuous in the circumferential direction as a whole, but can be continuous without significant interruption in appearance.

[0041] Even if a gap is generated between the concave slope 16 of the concave portion 12 and the convex slope 19 of the convex portion 13, the serrations are formed substantially continuously in the circumferential direction, thereby reliably preventing the wires 90 from falling out of the shield connector 60 and improving the wire holding force.

[0042] Furthermore, according to the first embodiment, the second locking portions 24 are arranged in pairs on both the front and rear sides of the first locking portion 23 , so that the electric wires 90 can be firmly and stably held.

[0043] In addition, since each second stopper 24 has a flat surface 26 along the front-rear direction on the inner circumference, the shield tip 97 is stably held by the second stopper 24. Furthermore, since the first stopper 23 has a sharp protruding surface 25 on the inner circumference, the protruding surface 25 can be sunk into the outer skin 93, the outer skin 93 (electric wire 90) is reliably restricted from misalignment with respect to the shield receiving member 10.

[0044] Furthermore, since the front-to-back width of the first locking portion 23 is smaller than the front-to-back width of the second locking portion 24 , even if the front-to-back width of the main body 11 is reduced, a sufficient partition space 27 can be ensured within the front-to-back width of the main body 11 .

[0045] Furthermore, since the other end 23B of the first stopper 23 is arranged at a position overlapping with the convex inclined surface 19 when viewed from the axial direction, and the one end 24A of the second stopper 24 is arranged at a position overlapping with the concave inclined surface 16 when viewed from the axial direction, the first stopper 23 and each second stopper 24 are arranged with good spatial efficiency within the front-to-back width of the main body 11, which can contribute to the miniaturization of the main body 11. If the miniaturization of the main body 11 can be achieved, the first outer conductor terminal 31 can also be miniaturized, so the material cost can be reduced and the versatility is excellent.

[0046] [Other embodiments of the present invention] The above-mentioned Embodiment 1 disclosed this time should be considered as illustrative in all aspects and not restrictive.
