Waterproof cable connector

A waterproof cable connector, comprising:

• a body having a substantially cylindrical shape and including a first upper surface, a first lower surface, and a first lateral surface surrounding a space between the first upper surface and the first lower surface, the body having a first hollow interior extending through the first upper surface and the first lower surface;
• a sealing member including a second upper surface, a second lower surface, and a second lateral surface surrounding a space between the second upper surface and the second lower surface and having a hole formed through a portion of the second upper surface and a portion of the second lower surface, the sealing member being inserted into the body in a direction from the first upper surface to the first lower surface;
• and
• a cap including a third upper surface, a third lower surface, and a third lateral surface surrounding a space between the third upper surface and the third lower surface and having a second hollow interior extending through a portion of the third upper surface and a portion of the third lower surface, the third lower surface being recessed toward the third upper surface and the cap being coupled with the body to cover the first upper surface and a portion of the first lateral surface,
• wherein the body has a tapered surface formed on a portion of the inside of the first lateral surface that is adjacent to the first upper surface,
• wherein the sealing member has a tapered surface formed on a portion of an outside of the second lateral surface that is adjacent to the second lower surface, and
• wherein a plurality of recesses are formed in at least one of the second upper surface and the second lower surface of the sealing member, the plurality of recesses arranged circumferentially around the hole of the sealing member, and
• wherein each of the plurality of recesses includes a first opening formed in the second lateral surface of the sealing member, the first opening conjoined to a second opening formed in the second upper surface of the sealing member, as to form a continuous opening spanning from a portion of the second lateral surface to the second upper surface.
