Claim 7

A shield connector, adapted so that a base-side portion of a terminal fitting press-attached to a conductor of a shield wire is accommodated in a housing covering an end portion of said shield wire, and which is provided in a through hole formed in a mating shield wall so that a shield layer of said shield wire is electrically connected to said mating shield wall, and that a conductor of said shield wire is maintained in a condition where a tip-side portion of said terminal fitting is plunged into said mating shield wall, said shield connector comprising: a flat plate portion provided in said fitting so that the entirety of said terminal fitting is L-shaped by bending said flat plate portion to continuously extend from said portion, which is press-attached to said conductor, of said fitting in a direction orthogonal to said shield wire, a part, which extends from said base-side portion to said tip-side portion thereof and is provided in said fitting and extends from said base-side portion to said tip-side portion thereof, is covered with a heat-contractive insulating tube or by applying a molten insulating resin onto said terminal fitting, and wherein said housing is L-formed by an electrically conducting synthetic resin filled in a resin-forming mold, into which said shield wire is inserted, in a state, in which said shield layer is exposed, to be mated with said terminal fitting.

Claim 8

The shield connector according to claim 5 , wherein a metallic ring is press-attached to said exposed shield layer of said shield wire, wherein a plurality of protruding pieces are provided in said metallic ring to project therefrom and extend sidewardly therefrom, and wherein said housing is formed by filling a space provided around said metallic ring and said plurality of protruding pieces with an electrically conducting synthetic resin.

Claim 9

A shield connector, adapted so that a base-side portion of a terminal fitting press-attached to a conductor of a shield wire is accommodated in a housing covering an end portion of said shield wire, and which is provided in a through hole formed in a mating shield wall so that a shield layer of said shield wire is electrically connected to said mating shield wall, said shield connector comprising: a plate portion formed in such a way as to continuously extend from a first press-attaching portion, which is press-attached to said conductor, of said fitting, the entirety of said terminal fitting being L-shaped by bending said plate portion; an insulating member with which said terminal fitting is covered; a shield member adapted to cover an outer surface of said insulating member covering said terminal fitting and provided in said housing so that an end of said shield member is electrically connected to said shield layer of said shield wire, while the other end thereof is disposed at a portion, which abuts against said mating shield wall, of said housing; and a second press-attaching portion, to which an interconnection wire is press-attached, said second press-attaching portion being placed in said housing and provided at an end portion, which is opposite to said first press-attaching portion, of said terminal fitting.

Claim 10

A shield connector, adapted so that a base-side portion of a terminal fitting press-attached to a conductor of a shield wire is accommodated in a housing covering an end portion of said shield wire, and which is provided in a through hole formed in a mating shield wall so that a shield layer of said shield wire is electrically connected to said mating shield wall, said shield connector comprising: a plate portion formed in such a way as to continuously extend from a first press-attaching portion, which is press-attached to said conductor, of said fitting, the entirety of said terminal fitting being L-shaped by bending said plate portion; an insulating member with which said terminal fitting is covered; a shield member adapted to cover an outer surface of said insulating member covering said terminal fitting and provided in said housing so that an end of said shield member is electrically connected to said shield layer of said shield wire, while the other end thereof is disposed at a portion, which abuts against said mating shield wall, of said housing; and a second press-attaching portion, to which an interconnection wire is press-attached, said second press-attaching portion being placed in said housing and provided at an end portion, which is opposite to said first press-attaching portion, of said terminal fitting.
