Electrical connector terminal

摘要

An electrical connector shield configured to be attached to a shielded wire cable having a conductive wire cable and a shield conductor surrounding the wire cable that is separated from the wire cable by an inner insulator. The shielded wire cable further has an insulative jacket surrounding the outer shield. The electrical shield connector includes a connection portion for connection with a corresponding mating electrical connector shield and an attachment portion having a conductor crimp wing for attachment to the outer shield and an insulator crimp wing for attachment to the insulative jacket. The insulator crimp wing defines a prong having a pointed end to penetrate the insulative jacket. The end of the prong penetrates the insulative jacket but does not penetrate the inner insulator. The connector shield may define a protruding triangular lock tang to engage a lock edge within a cavity of an electrical connector body.

1. An electrical connector shield configured to be attached to an end of a shielded wire cable having a conductive wire cable and a shield conductor longitudinally surrounding the conductive wire cable that is separated from the conductive wire cable by an inner insulator, said shielded wire cable further having an insulative jacket at least partially surrounding the shield conductor, said electrical connector shield comprising:
a connection portion configured for connection with a corresponding mating electrical connector shield, wherein the connection portion defines a shroud configured to longitudinally surround an electrical terminal attached to the conductive wire cable; and an attachment portion having a conductor crimp wing configured for attachment to an end of the shield conductor and an insulator crimp wing configured for attachment to an end of the insulative jacket, wherein the shroud defines an embossment proximate a location of a connection between the electrical terminal and the conductive wire cable and wherein the embossment projects outwardly to increase a distance between the connection and the shroud.
