Abstract
A connector includes an inner housing which holds a plurality of electric wires, an outer housing which accommodates the inner housing along a first direction, a fixing member which fixes the inner housing and the outer housing to each other and a convex portion which protrudes from one of an outer surface of the inner housing and an inner surface of the outer housing in the first direction. When the fixing member fixes the inner housing and the outer housing to each other, the convex portion abuts against the other of the outer surface of the inner housing and the inner surface of the outer housing so that a repulsive force is generated between the inner housing and the outer housing.
Claims6
A connector, comprising:
- an inner housing, which holds a plurality of electric wires, said inner housing including a first surface;
- an outer housing including a second surface, wherein said inner housing is at least partially inserted into the outer housing along a first direction;
- a fixing member, which fixes the inner housing and the outer housing to each other;
- and
- a convex portion, which protrudes from one of the first surface of the inner housing toward the second surface in the first direction and the second surface of the outer housing toward the first surface in a direction opposed to the first direction,
- wherein when the fixing member fixes the inner housing and the outer housing to each other, the convex portion abuts against the other of the first surface of the inner housing and the second surface of the outer housing so that a repulsive force is generated between the inner housing and the outer housing.
