ABSTRACT:
A water-proof connector including a male connector housing, and a female connector housing in which a sealing ring and a retaining member are fixed. A supporting elongate protrusion is formed on the bottom wall of the female connector housing, and an elongate slot is formed in the bottom wall of the retaining member for receiving the supporting protrusion of the female connector housing. When the retaining member is inserted into the female connector housing, the supporting protrusion directly supported the male connector housing, thus preventing relative movement of the male connector housing and the female connector housing. In another embodiment, a key is provided on an inner surface of the female connector housing and is forced into the elongate slot of the retaining member when the male and female connector housings are secured to each other. The width of the key is greater than that of the slot so that the retaining member expands outwardly against the walls of female connector housing.
