Abstract:
1. A cable assembly comprising a multi-core cable, a cylindrical clamp, two layers of springs including an inner spring and an outer spring, and a rubber boot, wherein the multi-core cable includes a bundled plurality of core wires having each conductor covered with an insulation, a shielding layer provided around the plurality of core wires, and a sheath formed around the shielding layer; the cylindrical clamp is fixed by clamping the sheath at an end portion of the multi-core cable in a state where the multi-core cable is inserted in the clamp, whereas at a position opposite to a front end of the multi-core cable, the clamp has a diameter increasing portion such that the inside diameter increases as it is more distant from the front end; the inner spring having the multi-core cable partly inserted therein is attached around the sheath on the rear side of the clamp in a manner such that the front end portion of the inner spring is fixed to the clamp in a state where it is held between the sheath and the internal circumference of the clamp; the outer spring having a shorter length than that of the inner spring in the longitudinal direction of the multi-core cable is provided in a manner such that the front end portion of the outer spring is fixed to the outer circumference of the clamp; and the rubber boot covers the outer circumferences of the inner spring and the outer spring.
