Connector with a collision preventing projection

摘要

Collision preventing projections ( 50 ) are provided on an outer surface of a female housing ( 20 ) and will contact an opening of a receptacle ( 11 ) of a male housing ( 10 ) if a main portion ( 21 ) of the female housing ( 20 ) is inserted into a receptacle ( 11 ) in an oblique posture. Thus, the collision preventing projections ( 50 ) ensure that the main portion ( 21 ) and male terminals ( 12 ) are spaced apart when the main portion ( 21 ) is pushed into the receptacle ( 11 ) in this oblique posture.
