SHIELD CONNECTOR

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a shield connector with an improved contact property by increasing an effective contact area between a shield terminal and a connector housing, and thereby, endowed with a stable shielding performance. SOLUTION: The shield terminal 37 made of a conductive material is provided with a conductive plate part 37a and shield shells 37b electrically connected to a conductive shield member 69 of a shield wire 47 erected in cylinder-shape on the conductive plate 37a. The conductive plate part 37a of the shield terminal 37 is collectively pinched by a pressing plate 39 and an outer surface 31c of the connector housing 31 so as to be in contact with the outer surface 31c of the connector housing 31, and fixed to the connector housing 31 with bolts 41, 43. The conductive plate part 37a is in plane contact with the outer surface 31c of the connector housing 31. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
