PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a connection structure of a connector and a terminal fitting, capable of reducing the shaping cost by facilitating the shaping work of a locking protrusion.SOLUTION: At a predetermined position of a bottom wall 9 of a female terminal fitting 2, a locking hole 12, into which a locking groove 4c of a lance 4 formed in a terminal housing hole 3 of a connector housing 1 is engaged elastically, is formed. A locking protrusion 14 against which the distal edge of a retaining part, engaging with the locking hole, abuts from the axial direction is provided at a hole edge 12a of the locking hole on the front end side, integrally therewith. The locking protrusion includes a conical portion 14a increasing the diameter gradually from an apex P on the front end side to the rear end of the locking hole on the front end side, and a cylindrical portion 14b formed at the rear end edge of the conical portion integrally therewith. A notch 14d is formed by notching a part of the conical portion on the distal end side from the apex. |
