Abstract

Abstract An electrical connector for a shielded multiconductor cable, which includes a shielding case (3) including a contact retention portion (6) with at least one jig inlet (11) formed on a bottom face thereof, a shield wires crimping portion (7) with crimping tabs for crimping shield wires of the multiconductor cable, and an outer sheath crimping portion (8) with crimping tabs for crimping an outer sheath of the multiconductor cable; an insulator body (4) provided within the contact retention portion; and at least one signal contact (5) having a contact body (14), a signal line crimping portion (15) with crimping tabs for crimping a signal line of the multiconductor cable, and an insulator crimping portion (16) with crimping tabs for crimping an intermediate insulator of the multiconductor cable and supported by the insulation body such that the signal line and intermediate insulator crimping portions are positioned above the jig inlet.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 138 words
An electrical connector for a shielded multiconductor cable, comprising: a shielding case including a contact retention portion with at least one jig inlet formed on a bottom face thereof, a shield wires crimping portion with crimping tabs for crimping shield wires of said multiconductor cable, and an outer sheath crimping portion with crimping tabs for crimping an outer sheath of said multiconductor cable; an insulator body provided within said contact retention portion; and at least one signal contact having a contact body, a signal line crimping portion with crimping tabs for crimping a signal line of said multiconductor cable, and an insulator crimping portion with crimping tabs for crimping an intermediate insulator of said multiconductor cable and supported by said insulation body such that said signal line and intermediate insulator crimping portions are positioned above said jig inlet.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 138 words
An electrical connector for a shielded multiconductor cable, comprising: a shielding case including a contact retention portion with at least one jig inlet formed on a bottom face thereof, a shield wires crimping portion with crimping tabs for crimping shield wires of said multiconductor cable, and an outer sheath crimping portion with crimping tabs for crimping an outer sheath of said multiconductor cable; an insulator body provided within said contact retention portion; and at least one signal contact having a contact body, a signal line crimping portion with crimping tabs for crimping a signal line of said multiconductor cable, and an insulator crimping portion with crimping tabs for crimping an intermediate insulator of said multiconductor cable and supported by said insulation body such that said signal line and intermediate insulator crimping portions are positioned above said jig inlet.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 77 words
A method of loading a shielded multiconductor cable on said electrical connector of claim 1, which comprises the steps of: placing a prepared end portion of said multiconductor cable on said shielding case such that said signal line, shield wires, and outer sheath are placed on said respective crimping tabs; and pressing said respective crimping tabs either successively or simultaneously onto said signal line, shield wires, and outer sheath by means of crimping jigs for effecting connection.
