Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connector and more particularly to a connector, the housing of which holds a core made of resin and accommodating an insert-molded terminal so as to prevent the terminal from being shaken and removed from the housing and in addition, reduce the length of the housing in a terminal-inserting direction.
  • a rance 3 comprising an elastic arm 3a and a locking projection 3b formed at the leading end of the elastic arm 3a is provided in an accommodating chamber 2 of a housing 1.
  • the rance 3 locks a terminal 4 in the accommodating chamber 2.
  • the elastic arm 3a It is necessary for the elastic arm 3a to have a considerable length (L) to allow the rance 3 to be elastic. As a result, the housing 1 is necessarily long in a terminal-inserting direction.
  • a connector comprising: a housing having an accommodating chamber formed in a connector-engaging direction and first locking means formed in the accommodating chamber; and a core, made of resin and accommodating an insert-molded terminal, comprising second locking means which engages the first locking means of the accommodating chamber.
  • the core is held in the accommodating chamber due to the engagement between the first locking means and the second locking means.
  • a locking wall projecting in the accommodating chamber locks an end of the core inserted into the accommodating chamber in a predetermined direction.
  • the first locking means consists of a locking projection formed on an inner peripheral surface of the accommodating chamber.
  • the second locking means consists of a locking groove formed on a peripheral surface of the core.
