A connector is equipped with a front member in which a plurality of terminal containers for accommodating female terminal metal fittings are arranged in parallel in a transverse direction and resilient locking pieces of the terminal containers exposed forward are arranged in parallel in the transverse direction. The front member is composed of two through-hole portions. Each through-hole portion has jig insertion recesses continuously formed, wherein in the recess of jig insertion, respective substantial halves of two adjacent terminal containers appear, and the tapered guide surface formed on both edges of the recess of jig insertion partially overlap the periphery of the opening portion of each of the two terminal containers on the side of the resilient locking piece. Thus, a partner male terminal metal fittings can be smoothly guided into each terminal container through the front member provided at the connector housing.

An apparatus for confirming the fitting of an electric connector in which a male connector housing is fitted in a hood of a female connector housing so as to connect together metal terminals received respectively in the terminal receiving chambers of the male and female connector housings. A lock lever, having a holder spring, is pivotally connected at one end to a first side portion of the hood. A locking plate, having a provisional locking groove and a complete locking groove, is formed on a second side portion of the hood. Both the provisional and complete locking grooves are engageable with the holder spring. A fitting confirmation projection is formed on a reverse surface of the lock lever, and interferes with the male connector housing when the fitting of the male connector housing is imperfect, thereby preventing the engagement between the holder spring and the complete locking groove. The apparatus also may be used when a hood of a female connector housing is fitted in an electronic unit case so as to provide an open window in the electronic unit case. In this embodiment, a manipulation press portion is formed on a second end of the lock lever. Additionally, a screen portion is formed on the press portion so as to close the window in the electronic unit case to prevent foreign matter from penetrating the electronic unit case.

A mold for forming a housing having a lance includes a first mold and a second mold. The lance has a first projection for engaging a terminal and a second projection provided at a position nearer with an end of the lance than the first projection. The first mold includes a first member having a third projection. The second mold includes a second member and a third member. The second member has a first concave portion into which the third projection is inserted. The third member is configured to be moved with respect to the second member. The second member defines, with the first member, a first space where the housing is adapted to be formed. The third member defines, with the first member, a second space where the first projection and the second projection are adapted to be formed.

A connector including a first connector accommodating a male terminal, a second connector accommodating a female terminal, and a movable aligner which supports a tip of the male terminal and is movable from a provisional position to a completed position according to the insertion and desertion of the second connector relative to the first connector. At the provisional position, a pushing projection pushes the arm toward the inner wall so that the arm deforms and the regulating projection is in the recess portion, and the movable aligner supports the tip of the first terminal so as to align with the second terminal during a movement between the provisional position to the completed position, the pushing projection is engaged with the slit; and at the completed position, the first and the second terminals are connected. Thus the movable aligner precisely align the male terminal with the female terminal.

In resin molded parts with lock arms, a peripheral wall 12a protruding toward a rear side vertical to a main body part is connected to the peripheral edge of the substantially plate shaped main body part 12. Belt plate shaped lock arms 13 are connected to the peripheral wall with ends protruding toward a front side vertical to the main body part by connecting base ends 13a to the outer surfaces of the peripheral wall. The lock arms have slits 17 which are formed in intermediate parts of the lock arms in the direction of width of the lock arms and continuously extend from the end faces of the base ends of the lock arms to parts before the ends to ensure engaging parts 14 in the ends of the lock arms. When the resin molded parts with the lock arms is formed, the main body part and the lock arms are formed by opening and closing metal molds from a front surface side and a rear surface side of the main body part, the lock arms are formed so as to have shapes more obliquely curved outward toward the ends of the lock arms and the slits are formed by a slit forming part provided in the metal mold of the rear surface side.
