Abstract

A coaxial cable has an inner conductor, an insulator provided on an outer circumference of the inner conductor, a film provided on an outer circumference of the insulator, an outer conductor provided on an outer circumference of the film, and a sheath provided on an outer circumference of the outer conductor. At least a part of the film is colored in a different color from both colors of the insulator and the outer conductor.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A coaxial cable comprising:
an inner conductor;
an insulator that is provided on an outer circumference of the inner conductor;
a film that abuts an outer circumference of the insulator;
an outer conductor that abuts on an outer circumference of the film; and
a sheath that is provided on an outer circumference of the outer conductor, wherein
at least a part of the film is colored, over an entire circumferential direction of the insulator, in a different color from both colors of the insulator and the outer conductor.

2. The coaxial cable according to claim 1 , wherein
the film includes a film base and an identification layer; and
the identification layer is colored in a different color from both colors of the insulator and the outer conductor.

3. The coaxial cable according to claim 1 , wherein
the film includes a film base that is colored in a different color from both colors of the insulator and the outer conductor.

4. The coaxial cable according to claim 1 , further comprising:
an adhesive bonding the insulator and the film with each other.

5. A wiring harness comprising an assembly of a bundle of a plurality of electric wires including the coaxial cable according to claim 1 .

6. The coaxial cable according to claim 1 , wherein
the film covers the insulator in the entire circumferential direction of the insulator.

7. The coaxial cable according to claim 1 , wherein
the film is configured to prevent plasticizer from permeating the insulator.

8. The coaxial cable according to claim 1 , wherein
the sheath abuts the outer circumference of the outer conductor, and
the film includes at least one layer, and each layer of the film is a non-metallic layer.
