Abstract:
1. A press bond terminal having a conductor press bond part connected by being pressed and bonded to a distal end of a conductor of an electric wire, the conductor press bond part being formed in substantially a U-shaped cross section opened upward by a base plate and a pair of conductor crimp pieces extended upward from both right and left lateral edges of the base plate, the press bond terminal being electrically connected to the electric wire by inserting the conductor of the electric wire between the pair of conductor crimp pieces in the case of being pressed and bonded to the electric wire and inward rounding the pair of conductor crimp pieces to crimp the conductor crimp pieces so as to wrap the conductor with the base plate by a press bond operation of a lower mold and an upper mold of a press bond device in its insertion state, wherein a range from the base plate to the root of the pair of conductor crimp pieces is formed as a curved wall with substantially a continuously circular arc shape and when a radius of curvature of an inner surface of the curved wall is R and a radius of the conductor of the electric wire is r, the curved wall is set so as to satisfy R<r, and wherein in a final press bond state the conductor press bond part is formed with an elongated cross section.
