Abstract:
A method of manufacturing an electromagnetic shielding structure for electric wires, comprising the steps of:providing a bundle of electric wires having a first length and a first diameter; providing a tubular braided wire having a second length which is shorter than the first length and a second diameter which is larger than the first diameter; passing the bundle of electric wires through the braided wire; connecting a first connector to a first end of the electric wires and a second connector to a second end of the electric wires, the connectors having a third diameter which is larger than the second diameter; stretching the braided wire so as to have the first length, and such that both ends thereof are fitted on outer peripheries of the respective connectors to form a reduced-diameter portion therebetween which is fitted on an outer periphery of the bundle of the electric wire; and attaching a conductive retainer on the reduced-diameter portion to maintain a length and a diameter of the reduced-diameter portion.
