US Patent 8414329 Connector for coaxial cable

A connector for a coaxial cable which enables an end of a shield wire to be held inside a shield terminal as a housing, without generating a backlash, and can be made compact as a whole. Each of crimping barrel parts of a shield terminal is provided with a butting face which is opposed to each of flanges when the crimping barrel parts are folded at its one end, and an inclined face, at the other end at an opposite side to the butting face. The inclined face is brought into sliding contact with the inclined face of the other crimping barrel part when the crimping barrel parts are folded, and the inclined face is inclined to extend in a direction perpendicular to a direction where a pair of the crimping barrel parts are folded.
