Abstract

A shield member is closely contacted with a first seal member 3 projecting in the axial direction of a housing, and a second seal member is closely contacted with the outside thereof. A hole at the housing side is communicated with a long hole of a shield member in the movable range of a projecting portion and an engaging portion. The housing can be conductive. The housing and the shield member can be provided integrally. The housing includes a flange portion and ring walls. The ring wall fitted in a first stage ring portion of the shield member is contacted with a hole portion, the seal member is fitted with the outside of the seal member fitted with a second stage ring portion, and a shield electric wire is connected with a third stage ring portion by a shield sleeve. The ring portions can be provided in two steps, with a large diameter portion of a first seal member fitted into a first stage ring portion, and a second seal member provided at the opening end of the hole portion. A drain hole of the housing, a stopper holder and a cushion ring are provided.

Dependent claims

A shield connector structure comprising:

a housing including an insertion hole and a flange portion, wherein a shield electric wire is insertable into said insertion hole, and said flange portion is attachable to a case for ground connection;
a conductive shield member connected to a wire shield portion of said shield electric wire;
a first seal member contacting said shield electric wire and said housing, said first seal member circumscribing said shield electric wire and including:
a first longitudinal portion disposed between said housing and said shield electric wire, and
a second longitudinal portion projecting from said housing in an axial direction, wherein an interior surface of said conductive shield member contacts an outer periphery of said second longitudinal portion;
and
a second seal member contacting a hole portion of said case, wherein an inner periphery of said second seal member contacts an exterior surface of said conductive shield member,
wherein said second seal member circumscribes at least part of said first seal member, and
wherein said first seal member extends from a first axial position to a second axial position along said shield electric wire, and said second seal member is disposed at least partially between said first and second axial positions.
