A rubber stopper is provided at a rear end of a housing. A receiving tool-insertion opening is formed on a bottom surface of a cavity of the housing such that the receiving tool-insertion opening is located immediately forward from the rubber stopper. A receiving portion is projectingly formed on a lower part of a pressure die. When the housing accommodating a pressure-connection terminal is placed on the lower part, the receiving portion projects upward through the receiving tool-insertion opening, and the apex of a mountain portion is located in the vicinity of an insertion hole of the rubber stopper. When a pressure tool installed on an upper part of the pressure die moves downward, a front end of an electric wire is pressed against and connected with a pressure blade. As a result, the electric wire projecting from the rubber stopper is stretched downward. In this case, a root portion of the electric wire is received with the receiving portion. Thus, the insertion hole of the rubber stopper is not subjected to the stretching force. Consequently, the insertion hole can be prevented from deforming, which provides sealing performance in the periphery of the electric wire securely.
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.

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:
A connector is provided to increase the strength for stopping a forward movement of a terminal fitting. The connector has a housing 11 with a cavity 12. A locking portion 18 is disposed in the cavity 12. Opposite side surfaces of a portion of a locking portion 18 more toward the leading end thereof than a locking projection 19 are cut off to form cut surfaces 21. Contact portions 23 projecting inward are formed continuously with a front wall 13 in areas of side surfaces of the cavity 12 facing the cut surfaces 21. Stabilizers 8 provided on a male terminal fitting 1 can come into contact with the back edges of the contact portions 23. A forward movement of the male terminal fitting 1 properly inserted is stopped by the contact with the front wall 13 and the contact of the stabilizers 8 with the contact portions 23. Since the contact portions 23 are formed taking advantage of spaces obtained by cutting off parts of the locking portion 18, they do not cause any enlargement of the cavity 12. Further, this portion of the locking portion 18 toward the leading end thereof from the locking projection 19 has almost no influence on the strength for locking the terminal fitting 1 so as not to be withdrawn backward, and the same degree of a locking force against the backward movement of the terminal fitting 1 as the locking portion of the prior art connector described above can be secured.
摘要:
A male terminal fitting (1) is formed by bending a flat metal plate worked into a specified shape and includes a contact (2), a rectangular tube (4) formed to be wider than the contact (2), and a link (3) between the contact (2) and the rectangular tube (4). The link (3) is not connected with the front edge of the upper surface of the rectangular tube (4) over the entire width. Thus, bending resistance against an external force can be improved by increasing deflectability while holding down bending rigidity.

A stabilizer (30) of a terminal fitting (20) is divided into a front stabilizer (31A) and a rear stabilizer (31B) and defining a small clearance therebetween. Thus, the smaller holes (32A, 32B) are formed by the divided stabilizer (30), and external matter is less likely to intrude.

A terminal fitting (T) has a rectangular tube (10). A resilient locking piece (25) is accommodated in a rectangular tube portion (10) and a locking hole (19) in the tube (10) exposes the resilient locking piece (25). A side plate (13R) of the rectangular tube (10) is provided with an intrusion restricting portion (21) near the resilient contact piece (25) and in an opening area of the locking hole (19). Thus, the intrusion of an external matter through the locking hole (19) can be restricted by the intrusion restricting portion (21), thereby preventing the interference of the external matter with the resilient contact piece (25).

摘要:
A connector has a housing (30) with side-by-side cavities (31). A resiliently deformable lock (40) is formed in each cavity (31) for locking terminal fittings (10) in the respective cavities (31). Locks (40) of adjacent cavities (31) are coupled by coupling pieces (51) to enhance the strength of the locks (40).
