Claim Text:
1. A terminal treatment method for a coaxial cable which includes a core member in which an inner conductor is covered with an insulator, an outer conductor provided around the core member and formed of a plurality of wires, and a sheath covering an outer circumference of the outer conductor, the terminal treatment method for branching the core member and the outer conductor from each other at a terminal of the coaxial cable in which both the outer conductor and the inner conductor are used as leads comprising: exposing the outer conductor by removing the sheath on an end portion of the coaxial cable; separating the wires of the outer conductor from an outer circumferential surface of the core member by gripping and moving an end portion of the outer conductor to loosen the exposed portion of the outer conductor; extruding the core member having the inner conductor from gaps formed in the wires of the outer conductor to extract the core member from the outer conductor; intertwining the outer conductor by gripping and twisting the end portion of the outer conductor after the extruding step; mounting a cylindrical core onto the core member at a terminal of the outer conductor exposed by the outer conductor exposing step before the separating step; and widening the terminal of the outer conductor away from the core member by deforming a terminal-near portion of the outer conductor exposed in the outer conductor exposing step by compression from an outer circumferential side of the core conductor before the cylindrical core mounting step.
