The restricting portion 15p restricts the movement of the terminal 16 toward the surface 15a when the protrusion 15q hits the protrusion 16b of the terminal 16. In other words, the protrusion 15q (recess 15r) guides (guides) the inserted protrusion 16b in the insertion direction A.
 また、収容部15hには、図9,11に示されるように、抜止部15sが設けられている。抜止部15sは、側面15nのそれぞれに設けられた突部15tを有している。一対の突部15t間には、隙間が設けられている。抜止部15sは、一例として、端子16の突部15tが押し込まれることにより、弾性変形して突部15tの通過を許容する。抜止部15sは、突部15tが端子16の突部16bと当たることで挿入方向Aとは逆方向への端子16の移動を規制する。つまり、抜止部15sは、端子16の抜け止めを行う。また、抜止部15sには、押し込まれる突部15tと当たる傾斜面15t1が設けられている。傾斜面15t1は、挿入方向Aの後端部から前端部へ向かうにつれ収容部15hの内方に位置するように傾斜している。なお、図11では、抜止部15sと突部15tとが離間した例が示されているが、抜止部15sと突部15tとは、接触していてもよい。 Further, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 11, the accommodating portion 15h is provided with a retaining portion 15s. The retaining portion 15s has a protrusion 15t provided on each of the side surfaces 15n. A gap is provided between the pair of protrusions 15t. As an example, the retaining portion 15 s is elastically deformed by allowing the projection 15 t of the terminal 16 to be pushed in and allows the projection 15 t to pass therethrough. The retaining portion 15 s restricts the movement of the terminal 16 in the direction opposite to the insertion direction A when the projecting portion 15 t hits the projecting portion 16 b of the terminal 16. That is, the retaining portion 15s prevents the terminal 16 from coming off. Further, the retaining portion 15s is provided with an inclined surface 15t1 that contacts the projection 15t to be pushed. The inclined surface 15t1 is inclined so as to be located inward of the accommodating portion 15h as it goes from the rear end portion to the front end portion in the insertion direction A. Although FIG. 11 shows an example in which the retaining portion 15s and the projecting portion 15t are separated from each other, the retaining portion 15s and the projecting portion 15t may be in contact with each other.
 以上の構成のコネクタ11の製造の際には、図12A~図12Cに示されるように、端子16が保持部材15の収容部15hに挿入される。この際、複数の端子16は、相互に結合されて一体化されており、保持部材15への端子16の挿入後に、相互に分離される。保持部材15への端子16の挿入の際、規制部15pの突部15qが端子16の突部16bと当たることで、突部15qが、面15a側への端子16の移動を規制する。つまり、突部15q(凹部15r)が、突部16bを挿入方向Aへ案内する。また、収容部15hの面15kが突部16bと当たることで、面15kが、面15b側への端子16の移動を規制する。これにより、端子16が高さ方向Cに移動するのが抑制される。また、端子16の突部15qは、抜止部15sの一対の突部15t間に押し込まれることで、一対の突部15tを通過する。これにより、抜止部15sによる端子16の抜け止めが可能となる。また、この際、端子16の圧入部16cが収容部15hの一対の側面15n間に圧入される。これにより、端子16が収容部15hに保持される。なお、端子16の突部16bが、収容部15hの一対の側面15n間に圧入されてもよい。また、圧入部16cに対する圧入部用抜止部(抜止部)を収容部15hに設けた場合、圧入部用抜止部に圧入部16cに係合した後に、端子16の突部15qが抜止部15sを通過するようにしてもよい。 When the connector 11 having the above configuration is manufactured, the terminal 16 is inserted into the accommodating portion 15h of the holding member 15 as shown in FIGS. 12A to 12C. At this time, the plurality of terminals 16 are combined and integrated with each other, and are separated from each other after the terminals 16 are inserted into the holding member 15. When the terminal 16 is inserted into the holding member 15, the protrusion 15q of the restricting portion 15p abuts against the protrusion 16b of the terminal 16, so that the protrusion 15q restricts the movement of the terminal 16 toward the surface 15a. That is, the protrusion 15q (recess 15r) guides the protrusion 16b in the insertion direction A. Further, the surface 15k of the housing portion 15h abuts against the protrusion 16b, so that the surface 15k regulates the movement of the terminal 16 toward the surface 15b. This suppresses the terminal 16 from moving in the height direction C. Further, the protrusions 15q of the terminal 16 pass through the pair of protrusions 15t by being pushed between the pair of protrusions 15t of the retaining portion 15s. As a result, the terminal 16 can be prevented from being detached by the retaining portion 15s. At this time, the press-fit portion 16c of the terminal 16 is press-fitted between the pair of side surfaces 15n of the housing portion 15h. Thereby, the terminal 16 is hold | maintained in the accommodating part 15h. Note that the protrusion 16b of the terminal 16 may be press-fitted between the pair of side surfaces 15n of the housing portion 15h. Further, when a press-fitting portion retaining portion (preventing portion) for the press-fit portion 16c is provided in the accommodating portion 15h, the protrusion 15q of the terminal 16 attaches the retaining portion 15s after the press-fitting portion retaining portion is engaged with the press-fit portion 16c. You may make it pass.
 以上説明したとおり、本実施形態では、端子16が突部16bを有し、収容部15hには、規制部15pが設けられている。したがって、一例として、コネクタ11の製造時に、端子16が保持部材15の収容部15hに挿入されると、規制部15pの突部15qが端子16の突部16bと当たることで、突部15qが面15a側への端子16の移動を規制する。よって、本実施形態によれば、一例として、保持部材15への端子16の装着作業の際に、端子16が座屈したり折れ曲がったりすることを抑制することができる。したがって、本実施形態によれば、保持部材15への端子16の装着作業の簡易化を図ることができる。 As described above, in the present embodiment, the terminal 16 has the protrusion 16b, and the accommodating portion 15h is provided with the restricting portion 15p. Therefore, as an example, when the terminal 16 is inserted into the accommodating portion 15h of the holding member 15 when the connector 11 is manufactured, the protrusion 15q of the restricting portion 15p abuts against the protrusion 16b of the terminal 16, so that the protrusion 15q is The movement of the terminal 16 toward the surface 15a is restricted. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, as an example, it is possible to prevent the terminal 16 from buckling or bending when the terminal 16 is attached to the holding member 15. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to simplify the mounting operation of the terminal 16 to the holding member 15.
 また、本実施形態では、突部16bが第一部分16h(端部16f)に設けられている。したがって、本実施形態によれば、一例として、保持部材15への端子16の装着作業の際に、端子16が座屈したり折れ曲がったりすることをより抑制することができる。 In the present embodiment, the protrusion 16b is provided on the first portion 16h (end portion 16f). Therefore, according to the present embodiment, as an example, when the terminal 16 is attached to the holding member 15, it is possible to further suppress the terminal 16 from being buckled or bent.
 また、本実施形態では、収容部15hには、抜止部15sが設けられている。したがって、本実施形態によれば、抜止部15sによって収容部15hからの端子16の抜け止めがなされる。 In the present embodiment, the accommodating portion 15h is provided with a retaining portion 15s. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the terminal 16 is prevented from coming off from the accommodating portion 15h by the retaining portion 15s.
