MOLDED CONNECTOR, METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING MOLDED CONNECTOR, AND WIRE HARNESS

摘要

A molded connector (10) includes a terminal fitting (2) connected to a cable (11), a terminal holding member (3) including a resin and holding the terminal fitting (2), and a molded resin portion (4) formed by injection molding using a mold (5) and holding the terminal holding member (3) and an end portion of the cable (11). The terminal holding member (3) includes a main body (30) holding the terminal fitting (2) and protruding portion (31) that is formed protruding from the main body (30) and includes a tip end surface (31a) in contact with an inner surface of a cavity (5a) in the mold (5) during injection molding. The protruding portion (31) is locked to a locking portion (521) provided on the mold (5 to restrict the movement of the terminal holding member (3) during injection molding. At least a part of the protruding portion (31) is fusion-bonded to the molded resin portion (4).
