<p>A waterproof connector configured such that parts constituting the connector can be assembled together in a work site and can be assembled easily. The waterproof connector is provided with a terminal (40) joined by crimping to a conductor (121) of a cable (12), a holding sleeve (60) mounted so as to extend from the vicinity of the rear end of the terminal (40) to an outer covering (122) of the cable (12), a body housing (70) having formed therein a tubular hole (71) for containing the holding sleeve (60), and a fastening nut (90) mounted on the rear end side of the body housing (70). When a substantially half section on the front end side of the holding sleeve (60) is inserted into the tubular hole (71) in the body housing (70) and the fastening nut (90) is engaged with a male thread section (76) formed on the outer side of the tubular hole (71), an end of the holding sleeve (60) is reduced in diameter by being pressed by narrowing tapered sections (75, 92), and as a result, the terminal (40) and the outer covering (122) of the cable (12) are held watertight.</p> |
