ABSTRACT:
A terminal has a lower plate and an upper plate and is accommodated in a groove portion of a connector housing. A covered wire is inserted between the lower plate and upper plate. When a cover is mounted over the groove portion, a protrusion of the cover presses the terminal so that the upper and lower plates are closed. By ultrasonic vibration, a covering portion of the covered wire is melted and removed and cores are pinched between the upper and lower plates and held. An engaging pawl is engaged with the upper plate thereby the pinching condition of the cores being held. As a result, even if contacting load is reduced due to a change of the temperature or like reason, the contact condition between the covered wire and the cores are securely maintained.
