Slip-out preventing connector

摘要

In the connector housing 10, a side wall opening 10W is formed which is continuous to an upper half of an opposite side wall 10S2 from the rear surface opening 10R. A tapered protrusion 10M is provided to stand upward from a lower side opening end face 10W1 of the side wall opening 10W. In the terminal 20, a tapered engaging recessed part 20M is formed in a part opposed to the tapered protrusion 10M. In one side wall 10S1 of the connector housing 10, a tapered hole 10K is formed. In the terminal 20, a tapered protrusion 20K is formed which enters the tapered hole 10K. Thus, the terminal 20 slides in a transverse direction by a sliding operation of the tapers so that the terminal 20 is held in the connector housing 10.

主权项

1. A slip-out preventing connector, comprising:
a terminal; and a connector housing having an insert hole to which a mate side connector terminal, which is separate from the terminal, is inserted and a rear surface opening as a terminal insert hole to which the terminal is inserted, the terminal being insertable from the rear surface opening and held in the connector housing; wherein: in the connector housing, a side wall opening is formed so as to be continuous to an intermediate part in an upper half of a one side wall of the connector housing from the rear surface opening, and a tapered protrusion is provided so as to stand upward from a lower side opening end face of the side wall opening; the terminal defines a tapered engaging recessed part that is configured to allow entry of the tapered protrusion of the connector housing, the tapered engaging recessed part being disposed at a location of the terminal that opposes the tapered protrusion when the terminal is held by the connector housing; the connector housing defines a tapered hole in another side wall of the connector housing that is opposite to the one side wall; in a part of the terminal opposed to the tapered hole of the other side wall at a position where the terminal is held in the connector housing, another tapered protrusion is formed so as to enter in the tapered hole; and the terminal as a whole, is slidable in a direction at right angles to an inserting direction of the terminal due to an operation of the tapered protrusion of the connector housing, the tapered engaging recessed part, the another tapered protrusion of the terminal, and the tapered hole, resulting in the terminal being held in the connector housing.
