Abstract
Bifurcated gripping pieces, each having a clearance in a thickness direction of a terminal, are projected from inner edge portions of respective terminals so as to confront each other. An inserting opening of an inserting space is made on a lower surface of a housing. Closing plates interposed between a pair of slits extending in a terminal inserting direction from the inserting opening are arranged on both lateral walls of the housing. The pair of closing plates are gripped between the respective gripping pieces while inserted into the clearances of the respective gripping pieces with the terminals inserted into the inserting space.
