Abstract (en)

The present invention provides a terminal cap which is capable of suppressing looseness in the twisting direction of a terminal by the structure of a pair of clamping portions. The terminal cap of the invention accommodating a terminal which has bent portion includes a cap body accommodating the terminal and having an opening through which the terminal is accommodated and a second clamping portion, a cap cover covering the opening and including a first clamping portion. The first and the second clamping portion clamp the terminal so as to sandwich the bending portion. The first clamping portion includes a rigid rib aligned to a central axis of the terminal, a pair of flexible arms including a flexible abutting portion overlapping the bending portion, and disposed on both sides of the rigid rib at equal interval, and a space to which the displacement of the flexible arms is absorbed. The second clamping portion includes a rigid mounting wall aligned to the central axis of the terminal and including a mounting surface formed so as to fit the shape of the bending portion.
