Connector

摘要

A connector housing includes an upper housing having a front end wall that defines the front end of a terminal containing chamber, and a lower housing having an opening section due to the lack of a front end wall. The front end wall of the upper housing has an insertion hole. The lower housing has the terminal containing chamber, and is disposed with a lance which is formed by using the opening section on the front end of the lower housing as a through hole. The upper housing and the lower housing have restricting portions which inhibit the relative displacement of both housings in the front and back direction when united, and a locking mechanism for maintaining the united state by restricting the upper housing and lower housing from separating in the upper or lower direction.

1. A connector comprising:
a connector housing made of a resin molded article; and plural terminal containing chambers that extend in a front and back direction and are formed inside the connector housing, female terminals being inserted into the terminal containing chambers from a back and retained by flexible lances formed inside the terminal containing chambers, wherein the connector housing is configured as an integrated article formed from two components constituting a first housing and a second housing; wherein the first housing is integrally provided with a front end wall of the connector housing defining a front end of each of the terminal containing chambers, and a front side of the second housing is opened due to the lack of the front end wall; wherein the front end wall of the first housing has insertion holes into which tips of male terminals of a mating connector are inserted so as to be fitted into the female terminals in the terminal containing chambers at the time of being fitted into the mating connector; wherein the terminal containing chambers are formed in the second housing in a state that the front end of each of the terminal containing chambers is opened, and the lances are formed so as to be molded by using opening section on the front end of each of the terminal containing chambers as a through hole; and wherein the first housing is provided with a restricting concave portion which is fitted into a restricting convex portion projecting from a top surface of the second housing and the second housing are able to be combined with the first housing in an upper and lower direction orthogonal to the front and back direction in the case of being united mutually, and the restricting convex portion and the restricting concave portion inhibits a relative displacement of the first and second housings in the front and back direction when united, and the first housing and second housings have a locking mechanism for maintaining the united state by restricting the first and second housings from separating in the upper and lower direction.
