摘要:
A connector housing is provided to prevent a locking portion from being excessively deformed when the insufficient insertion of a terminal fitting is detected. Cavities 3 are provided in two stages in the connector housing, and locking portions 11 are arranged back to back to share deformation permitting spaces 16. The upper and lower locking portions 11 are arranged such that the longitudinal axes thereof are transversely offset to each other. Detecting portions 23 to be inserted into the deformation permitting spaces 16 project from a retainer 20. At the left and right ends of an inserting end surface 24 of each detecting portion 23, excessive deformation preventing portions 25 are formed symmetrically with respect to vertical direction. The excessive deformation preventing portions 25 can individually come into contact with leading ends 13 of the upper and lower locking portions 11. If a female terminal fitting 8 is insufficiently inserted as in the upper stage of FIG. 7, the retainer 20 may further deform the locking portion 11 after coming into contact therewith, while being inserted. However, the excessive elastic deformation of the locking portion 11 is restricted by the leading end 13 thereof being brought into contact with the excessive deformation preventing portion 25 at the lower side.

When two connector housings are half fitted together, a fitting detecting connector causes one of the connector housings to be pushed in a direction of separation by means of springs which are provided within a female connector housing 5, a spring holder 15 being inserted into this female connector housing 5 so that it can move in an anterior-posterior direction. This spring holder 15 houses coiled springs 16 and, when the two connector housings are being fitted together, a locking arm 11 rises over a stopping protrusion 2. As a result of this rising up the spring holder 15 is engaged, its movement in a posterior direction is regulated, and the coiled springs 16 are compressed. When the connector housings are completely fitted together the locking arm 11 again moves, releasing the engagement of the spring holder 15, and the spring holder 15 is pushed in a posterior direction by the spring force. In this way the separating force does not act when the connector housings are fully engaged.

A connector includes lever pivotally mounted on a lateral wall of a male connector housing. When a female connector housing is inserted into the male connector housing, a cam follower projection formed on a cover is engaged with a cam groove formed on the lever. The lever is formed of four split pieces: a base plate, a second split piece, a third split piece, and an operating strip. For connecting or disconnecting the connectors, the lever can be expanded to maximize leverage. For storage, the lever can be contracted to minimize the amount of space occupied.
摘要:
A terminal fitting (T) has a rectangular tube (10) with a bottom plate (12). A resilient contact (25) extends back into the tube (10) from an end of the bottom plate (12). A base portion (33) is formed at the front end of the bottom plate (12) and is made narrower than the bottom plate (12) by cutting away the left and right edges. A bulge (34) bulges out from a lateral edge of the base portion (33) and narrows an area of an opening between the base portion (33) and the right side plate (13R). Thus, external matter is less likely to intrude into the rectangular tube (10) through the opening even if the resilient contact (25) is narrow. Additionally, the base portion (33) is reinforced by the bulge (34). Thus, the base portion (33) is less likely to be deformed by external matter.
摘要:
A terminal fitting (T) has a rectangular tube (10) with a base plate (12) and first and second side plates (13L, 13R) that extend from opposite sides of the base plate (12). A ceiling plate (14) extends from the first side plate (13L) towards the second side plate (13R), and a recess (37) is formed at an extending edge of the ceiling plate (14). A pressing portion (38) extends from the second side plate (13R) and is accommodated in the recess (37) for preventing upward displacement of the ceiling plate (14). Thus, there is no significant step between the upper surfaces of the ceiling plate (14) and the pressing portion (38) and the height of the rectangular tube (10) can be reduced.
摘要:
Terminal fittings (40) extend through a back wall (22) of a receptacle (21) of a housing (20). The terminal fittings (40) have receiving portions (43) that bulge out sideways along a width direction. The receiving portions (43) have jig receiving surfaces (45) exposed at the inner surface of the back wall (22) of the receptacle (21). A pressing surface (61) of a pressing jig (60) contacts the jig receiving surfaces (45) so that a pressing force of the pressing jig (60) is received directly by the terminal fittings (40).

摘要:
A connector has a housing (1) and retainer mount hole (8) is open in the housing (1) from its bottom surface over to its opposite side surfaces. Upon being moved from a partial locking position to a full locking position, A retainer (7) can be moved from a partial locking position to a full locking position and is guided obliquely forward by guides (22-25). Thus, the retainer (7) can be constantly guided to a specified position regardless of a variation in the fitted position of the retainer (7) in the retainer mount hole (8) along forward and backward directions. Since the retainer (7) and terminal fittings (4) can constantly have a proper positional relationship, a problem of a varying function of the retainer (7) to detect the insufficiently inserted states of the terminal fittings (4) due to a variation in the fitted position of the retainer (7) can be solved.
摘要:
A connector has a housing (20; 50) with cavities (23) for receiving terminal fittings (10; 60). At least a portion of each cavity (23) is rectangular and is dimensioned to receive a rectangular tube portion (11) of the terminal fitting (10; 60). At least one corner of the rectangular tube (11) defines an engaging recess (17; 61). At least one L-shaped lock (29; 51) is cantilevered forward adjacent each cavity (23) and is resiliently deflectable diagonally away from the rectangular portion of the respective cavity (23) in response to insertion of the terminal fitting (10; 60) into the respective cavity (23). The lock (29; 51) returns resiliently after proper insertion of the terminal fitting (10; 60) to engage the recess (17; 61).
摘要:
A waterproof connector is provided with a moving support plate without requiring an increase in size of the connector. A moving plate (40) has a shape whereby a side wall (42) protrudes upwards from circumference edges of a base plate (41) having maintaining holes (44) adapted to receive tabs (24) of male terminal fittings. This moving plate (40) can be inserted in a movable manner within a hood (22) of male housing (20). A first sealing ring (51), for sealing the space between the moving plate (40) and an outer circumference face of the female housing (10), is formed on an attachment base of an inner circumference face of an anterior end (42A) of the side wall (42). A second sealing ring (52), for sealing the space between the moving plate (40) and in inner circumference face of the posterior end (42B) of the side wall (42). These sealing rings (51) and (52) are formed in a unified manner, by means of two-component molding, on the moving plate (40).
