Branch connector for connections of a cord to a male connector and a female connector

摘要

A branch connector includes a socket mold in which a plurality of socket type contact parts are fitted, a plug mold in which a plurality of plug type contact parts are fitted, and a plurality of resiliently deformable conduction parts, formed as being integral with the plug type contact parts of the plug mold, for enabling electric connection between the plug type contact parts and the socket type contact parts of the socket mold. In this branch connector, the plurality of conduction parts longitudinally extend from internal ends of the plug type contact parts of the plug mold to intermediate portions of the socket type contact parts of the socket mold, and the conduction parts having edges which are brought into pressure contact with the intermediate portions of the socket type contact parts by using the resilient deformation of the conduction parts.
