Connector for wire and flat cable and method of manufacturing the same
First Claim
1. A connector for electric wires and a flat cable,the electric wires and the flat cable being held along a plate surface of an attaching plate;
- exposed conductor portions at distal ends of the electric wires and the flat cable, the exposed conductor portions of the electric wire being welded to the exposed conductor portion of the flat cable;
synthetic resin material covering at least one portion of the attaching plate and a welded portion between the exposed conductor portions;
the connector comprising;
a window portion in the attaching plate; and
a plurality of bus bars having front and rear surfaces exposed to the window portion and arranged at a pitch corresponding to a conductor pitch of the flat cable;
the exposed conductor portions of the flat cable and the exposed conductor portions of the electric wires being sequentially stacked on each other on one surface of each bus bar, the bus bars and both exposed conductor portions being welded to each other, and the exposed conductive portions and the bus bars being insert molded.

Abstract
In a connector for electric wires (5) and a flat cable (6) in which said electric wires (5) and said flat cable (6) which have exposed conductor portions (5A, 6A) formed at distal ends of said electric wires (5) and said flat cable (6) are held along a plate surface of an attaching plate (21). The exposed conductor portions (5A, 6A) are welded to each other. Insert molding is performed using a synthetic resin material (70) such that at least one portion of said attaching plate (21) and a welded portion between the exposed conductor portions (5A, 6A) are covered, a window portion (25) is formed in said attaching plate (21), and a plurality of bus bars (30) whose front and rear surfaces are exposed to said window portion (25) are arranged at a pitch corresponding to a conductor pitch of said flat cable (6). The exposed conductor portions (6A) of said flat cable (6) and the exposed conductor portions (5A) of said electric wires (5) are sequentially stacked on each other on one surface of each bus bar (30). Said bus bars (30) and both the exposed conductor portions (5A, 6A) are welded to each other in this state, and the insert molding is performed to the conductive-exposed portions (5A, 6A) and said bus bars (30).

10. A method of manufacturing a connector for electric wires and a flat cable, the method comprising the steps of:
-
insert-molding an attaching plate having bus bars; holding the electric wires and the flat cable having exposed conductor portions at distal ends of the electric wires and the flat cable along a plate surface of the attaching plate; sequentially stacking the exposed conductor portions of the flat cable and the exposed conductor portions of the electric wires on one surface of each of each bus bar; welding the bus bars and both the exposed conductor portions to each other; and insert-molding and covering the bus bar, the welded portion of the exposed conductor portions, and a portion of the attaching plate with a synthetic resin material.
