Connector

摘要

A connector has a housing (10) with a cavity (11) for receiving a terminal fitting (20). A resin lock (13) is cantilevered into the cavity (11) and has a wedge-shaped biting portion (13B) at its leading end. The wedge-shaped biting portion (13B) contacts and bites into a recess-shaped corner (35) formed by an outer surface (27) of the terminal fitting (20) and a locking surface (32). The leading end of the resin lock (13) is pushed toward the outer surface of the terminal fitting (20) if a force acts on the terminal fitting (20) in a withdrawing direction. Thus, even if the resin lock (13) is thinned to reduce its resilient rigidity, there is no possibility of the resin lock (13) being disengaged from the locking surface (32).
