A shielding unit is formed by press-fitting a small diameter portion of a shielding shell into a shielding ring around which an end portion of a shielding member is wrapped, such that the end portion of the shielding member is sandwiched by the shielding ring and the small diameter portion. By having the end portion of the shielding member be folded over to the inside of the shielding ring when press-fitting the small diameter portion of the shielding shell into the shielding ring, even if the position of an opening is unknown, it is possible to reliably position the opening inside the shielding member, unexposed to the outside, after the press-fitting. This easily allows the end portion of the shielding member to be mounted and secured to the shielding shell so as not to be exposed to the outside.

Shielding unit

A shield unit includes: a braid having a contact portion arranged in contact with a cylinder of a shield shell; a holder inserted in the cylinder and attached to the cylinder in contact with the contact portion, the holder attached to the cylinder electrically connecting the shield shell to the braid; and a rotation unit provided between the cylinder and the holder, the rotation unit being configured to make the holder rotate in a circumferential direction of the cylinder and make the cylinder and the contact portion slide relatively to each other until completion of attaching the holder to the cylinder.

Shield unit

A shielding unit is formed by attaching a shell internal cylinder and shell external cylinder of a shielding shell onto each other such that a cylindrical portion of a shielding member is sandwiched by an external cylindrical portion and an internal cylindrical portion press-fit therein while a flange portion of the shielding member is sandwiched by an internal cylinder flange portion and an external cylinder flange portion. By turning the shell internal cylinder in a counterclockwise direction with respect to the shell external cylinder, a positioning pin of the shell internal cylinder is moved to a counterclockwise direction end portion of a positioning guide hole of the shell external cylinder. This slides the cylindrical portion against at least one among the internal cylindrical portion and the external cylindrical portion, and slides the flange portion against at least one among the internal cylinder flange portion and the external cylinder flange portion.

A wire branch structure () includes a plurality of wires () and a shield member () which covers the circumference of the wires (). One end side of each of the wires () is inserted in a main line side shell (). The other end side of each of the wires () is branched from the main line side shell () and is inserted into branch line side shells () respectively. An isolation part () is provided in the shield member (), which isolates the wires () adjacent to a branch part () in which the other end side of each of the wires () is inserted in the branch line side shells () respectively and branched.
