Connector and connector device

A connector device comprising:

• a counterpart connector;
• and
• a connector configured to fit into the counterpart connector,
• the counterpart connector including
• a counterpart terminal including a pair of female terminal contact portions opposing each other in an opposing direction, and
• a counterpart housing configured to store the counterpart terminal, and
• the connector including
• a male terminal including a male terminal contact portion inserted between the pair of female terminal contact portions,
• an insulating member having an insulating property, including a storage space which stores at least the male terminal contact portion and allows the pair of female terminal contact portions to be inserted from the outside, and
• a housing configured to store the insulating member, wherein
• the pair of female terminal contact portions is formed with a pair of opposing surfaces opposing each other in the opposing direction across the male terminal contact portion,
• the pair of opposing surfaces is formed with a plurality of spring contacts elastically deformable in an extraction direction which is the opposite direction of an insertion direction in which the male terminal contact portion is inserted between the pair of female terminal contact portions, the plurality of spring contacts being formed in an extension direction perpendicular to the insertion direction,
• the insulating member includes
• an insulating member body included in the storage space,
• a pair of insertion openings configured to communicate with the storage space and formed in the insulating member body, corresponding to the pair of female terminal contact portions, and
• a cover formed between the pair of insertion openings and opposing the male terminal contact portion in the insertion direction,
• the cover has both ends in the extension direction connected to the insulating member body,
• the cover is divided into a first section and a second section by a dividing portion formed in a part of the extension direction, and
• the first section and the second section are configured to come into contact with the plurality of spring contacts when the male terminal contact portion is inserted between the pair of female terminal contact portions, the first section and the second section being elastically deformable at least in the opposing direction on contact with the plurality of spring contacts.
