An easily produced connector is provided with a partial engagement preventing function. A movable member 30 movably provided in a male connector housing along an engagement direction is biased by coil springs 40 toward a front end position with respect to the engagement direction. When the engagement is stopped when connector housings 10, 20 are partly engaged, the connector housings 10, 20 are separated away from each other by the forces of the coil springs 40, thereby informing an operator that the connector housings 10, 20 were partly engaged. The movable member 30 is formed with an engaging hole 31 which extends in a direction normal to its moving direction and is engageable with a lock arm 12 provided on the female connector housing 10. By providing an engaging portion with the lock arm 12 in the movable member 30, the connector housing can have a simpler construction and can be easily produced unlike a prior art male connector housing which has a complicated construction because the engaging portion is provided therein.

A plastic frame 13 for electrical connectors has an open end 14. A closing plate 18 of plastic is connected to one side of the open end by means of a living hinge. A cover 24 for covering electrical wires is integrally formed on the upper side of the frame 13. During assembly, the closing plate 18 is opened and each connector 1 is inserted into the frame 13 by sliding protruding members 11 along guiding grooves 15. Then the closing plate 18 is closed and latched. The electrical wires coming out of the connector 1 are simultaneously collected together under the cover 24. For disassembly, the closing plate 18 can be unlatched and each connector pulled out one by one.

A terminal fitting (10) has a terminal connection part (11) formed at a front part thereof and connected to a mating terminal; and a crimping part (12) formed at a rear part of the terminal fitting (10) and composed of a lower plate part (21) continuous with the terminal connection part (11) and a pair of crimping pieces (22) raised from left and right side edges of the lower plate part (21). The crimping part (12) is crimped with an end portion of an electric wire (30) being surrounded with the lower plate part (21) and a pair of the crimping pieces (22) to crimp the terminal fitting (10) to the end portion of the electric wire (30). Each of the crimping pieces (22) has a thin portion (24) formed thinner than the lower plate part (21) and contacting the end portion of the electric wire (30) when the crimping pieces (22) are crimped.
摘要:
A shielding shell (30) of a male housing (10M) and a shielding shell (30) of a female housing (10F) have the same shape, touching portions (35) of the shielding shells (30) are such that outer touching pieces (32) having contact points at the inner sides and inner touching pieces (31) having contact points at the outer sides are arranged in circumferential direction, and the inner touching pieces (31) of one shielding shell (30) and the outer touching pieces (32) of the other shielding shell (30) correspond to and come into contacting with each other in radial directions. Since the shielding shell (30) of the male housing (10M) and that of the female housing (10F) have the same shape, cost can be reduced.

A female terminal fitting (10) is provided with a tubular main portion (30), into which a mating male tab (70) is inserted along an axial center A from the front. A resilient contact piece (80) extends back in the main portion (30) and has a free end slidable on an inner surface of the main portion (30). The inner surface of the main portion (30) includes a first slide surface (51) aligned for permitting displacement of the free end of the resilient contact piece (80) while maintaining a uniform distance to the axial center (A) of the main portion (30) and a second slide surface (52) for permitting displacement of the free end of the resilient contact piece (80) while increasing the distance to the axial center (A) of the main portion (30).
摘要:
A frame (10) is provided with accommodating chambers (13) capable of accommodating auxiliary housings (20). A small housing (30) and a supplementary housing (40) also are provided. The housings (30, 40) are united by engaging a dovetail groove (33) and a dovetail projection (43) to form a united housing (50) that has an outer configuration common to the auxiliary housings (20). The auxiliary housing (20) and the united housing (50) can be selectively accommodated into the same accommodating chamber (13) of the frame (10). It is sufficient to prepare a single frame (10) regardless of whether the small housing (30) is used for a specific circuit. Thus, different arrangements can be dealt with inexpensively and efficiently.

A female housing (10) is mounted into a male housing (30) in a direction substantially normal to a connecting direction of the two housings (10, 30), and is inserted from this mount position toward the back side of a receptacle along the connecting direction. A moving plate (40) is assembled inside the receptacle (34), has an opening (61A) that is open toward a side from which the female housing (10) is mounted, and is formed with a guiding wall (61) for positioning the female housing (10) before the connection is started by being brought into contact with the upper surface and the opposite side surfaces of the female housing (10) reaching the mount position through the opening (61A).
摘要:
Error insertion preventing ribs (37) fittable into error insertion preventing grooves (23) of an accommodating portion (12) of a housing main body (11) project on the side surfaces of an auxiliary connector (30), and detecting ribs (43) insertable into error insertion preventing grooves (23) are provided on retainers (40). In the case that the auxiliary connector (30) is insufficiently inserted, the error insertion preventing ribs (37) of the auxiliary connector (30) interfere with the detecting ribs (43) of the retainers (40) in the process of mounting the retainers (40) to restricting positions to prevent the mounting of the retainers (40). In this way, the insufficiently inserted state of the auxiliary connector (30) can be detected.
摘要:
A divided connector (10) has a housing main body (11) with main cavities (16) and main front walls (17) that define front limit positions for main terminal fittings (15) in the main cavities (16). The housing main body (11) also has an accommodating portion (12) with an accommodating front wall (13) that defines a front limit position for an auxiliary housing (30) in the accommodating portion (12). The auxiliary housing (30) has auxiliary cavities (32) with auxiliary front walls (33) that define front limit positions of auxiliary terminal fittings (31) in the auxiliary cavities (32). A sum of the thicknesses of auxiliary front walls (33) and the accommodating front wall (13) exceeds the thickness of main front walls (17). Thus, the auxiliary terminal fittings (31) are backward from the main-body terminal fittings (15) by this thickness difference and a peak connecting force is reduced.
摘要:
An electrical connector assembly includes two connector housings. One of the housings has a locking arm engageable with the other housing in the fully fitted condition. A spring member urges the housings apart unless in the fully fitted state. The locking arm is deflected to compress the spring member during fitting. In the fully fitted state the locking arm moves to an undeflected condition and the spring member consequently adopts a position which blocks further movement of the locking arm to the deflected state, thereby latching the connector housings with certainty against forcible separation on the engagement axis.
