Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention provides a terminal structure for a covered electric wire, including: a terminal portion including a tip of a covered electric wire; a connection terminal having a crimp portion crimped to the terminal portion; and a mold resin of a hygroscopic reactive type covering the terminal portion of the covered electric wire and the crimp portion of the connection terminal. The crimp portion includes a conductive crimp portion crimped to the tip of the covered electric wire. The mold resin includes a first portion covering the conductive crimp portion and the tip of the covered electric wire; a second portion covering a part of the connection terminal which is further toward a tip than the tip of the covered electric wire, the part having a thickness smaller than the thickness of the conductive crimp portion; and a first step formed between the first portion and the second portion such that the height of the mold resin decreases from the first portion to the second portion. A first recess formed on the second portion in the vicinity of the first step so as to recess toward the connection terminal.

1 - 8 . (canceled) 9 . A terminal structure for a covered electric wire, comprising: a terminal portion including a tip of a covered electric wire; a connection terminal having a crimp portion crimped to the terminal portion; and a mold resin of a hygroscopic reactive type covering the terminal portion of the covered electric wire and the crimp portion of the connection terminal, the crimp portion including a conductive crimp portion crimped to the tip of the covered electric wire, the mold resin including: a first portion covering the conductive crimp portion and the tip of the covered electric wire: a second portion covering a part of the connection terminal which is further toward a tip than the tip of the covered electric wire, the part having a thickness smaller than the thickness of the conductive crimp portion; and a first step formed between the first portion and the second portion such that the height of the mold resin decreases from the first portion to the second portion, a first recess formed on the second portion in the vicinity of the first step so as to recess toward the connection terminal. 10 . The terminal structure for a covered electric wire according to claim 9 , wherein the crimp portion includes a covering material crimp portion crimped to a covering material of the covered electric wire, a second step is formed between a third portion of the mold resin covering the covering material crimp portion and the first portion of the mold resin, and a second recess is formed on the first portion in the vicinity of the second step. 11 . The terminal structure for a covered electric wire according to claim 9 , wherein the distance between a step surface of the first step of the first portion and the tip of the core wire of the covered electric wire is at least 0.5 mm. 12 . The terminal structure for a covered electric wire according to claim 9 , wherein a length from the first step of the second portion to a tip surface is equal to or larger than 2.6 mm.
