CONDUCTION INSPECTION TOOL FOR ELECTRIC CONNECTOR

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To automatically push in the rear holder in the prescribed position in the housing. SOLUTION: The conduction inspection tool 41 is comprised of a case 42 that has contactor insertion holes 45 and houses a housing 4 of the electric connector 1 and a pair of covers 43 that have contactors 46 capable of contacting a connection terminal 3 and are capable of contacting and separating from the case 42 from vertical direction. A spring plate 47 for pushing the rear holder 5 of the electric connector 1 into the engagement position is provided at the rear inner wall 43c of the cover 43. The spring plate 47 is comprised of a base part 47a fixed to the cover 43 and spring parts 47b, 47c bent inward in order from the base part 47a. And the spring parts 47b, 47c are bent and accumulate a repulsion force to the extent as to contact the base part 47a when they are contacted and slided on the rear end face 42a of the case 42, and return to the original state by repulsion force when they pass over the rear end face 42c of the case 42, and push the rear holder in the engagement position.
