Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A terminal-equipped electric wire has an electric wire including a bonded portion formed at a part of a conductor exposed due to absence of a sheath at a part of the electric wire in a longitudinal direction and in which strands of the conductor are bonded to each other; and a terminal including a wire barrel portion, the wire barrel portion covering at least a part of the bonded portion. The bonded portion includes a load release portion configured to reduce stress applied to the conductor.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A terminal-equipped electric wire comprising: an electric wire including a bonded portion formed at a part of a conductor exposed due to absence of a sheath at a part of the electric wire in a longitudinal direction and in which strands of the conductor are bonded to each other; and a terminal including a wire barrel portion, the wire barrel portion covering at least a part of the bonded portion, wherein the bonded portion is provided with a load release portion configured to reduce stress applied to the conductor. 2 . The terminal-equipped electric wire according to claim 1 , wherein the load release portion is provided in at least one end portion of the bonded portion in the longitudinal direction, and a diameter of the bonded portion gradually increases toward an end of the bonded portion in the load release portion. 3 . The terminal-equipped electric wire according to claim 1 , wherein one terminal of the terminal is fixed to a plurality of the electric wires. 4 . A terminal-equipped electric wire comprising: an electric wire including a bonded portion formed at a part of a conductor exposed due to absence of a sheath at a part of the electric wire in a longitudinal direction and in which strands of the conductor are bonded to each other; and a terminal including a wire barrel portion, the wire barrel portion covering at least a part of the bonded portion, wherein a diameter of the bonded portion gradually increases toward an end of the bonded portion in an end portion of the bonded portion. 5 . The terminal-equipped electric wire according to claim 4 , wherein one terminal of the terminal is fixed to a plurality of the electric wires. 6 . A method for manufacturing a terminal-equipped electric wire, the method comprising: forming, in an electric wire, a bonded portion in which strands of a conductor are bonded to each other in at least a part of the conductor in a longitudinal direction exposed due to absence of a sheath at a part of the electric wire in the longitudinal direction; and fixing a terminal including a wire barrel portion to the electric wire such that the wire barrel portion covers at least a part of the bonded portion, wherein at least one end portion of the bonded portion in the longitudinal direction is provided with a load release portion configured to reduce stress applied to the conductor. 7 . An electric wire comprising a bonded portion, in which strands of a conductor are bonded to each other, formed at least at a part of the conductor in a longitudinal direction exposed due to absence of a sheath at a part of the electric wire in the longitudinal direction, wherein a diameter of the bonded portion gradually increases toward an end of the bonded portion in an end portion of the bonded portion.
