SHIELD CONNECTOR AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREFOR

摘要

Provided are a shield connector (C1) that can provide required electromagnetic wave shielding without necessitating an increase in the size of the connector as a whole, and a manufacturing method for the shield connector (C1). The shield connector (C1) is provided with: a plurality of terminals (10) that include at least one terminal to be shielded; an insulating housing (20); and a shielding sheet (30) that is fitted to the terminal to be shielded so as to cover a sheet fitting surface that is set about at least a portion of the surface of the terminal to be shielded, excluding the portion that makes contact with the counterpart terminal. The shielding sheet (30) has an insulating layer (32) and a conductive layer (34), and is fitted to the terminal to be shielded when the insulating layer (32) is closely bonded to the sheet fitting surface, said shielding sheet (30) having a flexibility that conforms to the shape of the sheet fitting surface. When the sheet fitting surface is covered by the shielding sheet (30), the terminal (10) to be shielded is housed in and held by a terminal housing part (22) of the housing (20).
