ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a connector in which terminals are inserted into and retained to a connector housing, and the alignment of the terminal can be made accurately when assembling the connector, and the assembling operation can be done easily. A base plate portion 4 of the male terminal 1 is bent into a channel-shaped transverse cross-section to provide a pair of side walls 4a and 4a. A retaining hole 4c, which can be engaged with a retaining projection 8 which is formed upright on the housing 2 and has a retaining pawl 8a at its distal end, is formed through a bottom plate 4b, thereby providing retaining means. Inner partition walls 10 and 11 and outer partition walls 10b and 11b for defining terminal receiving chambers are formed upright on a bottom plate 9 of the housing base 2, and engagement projections 10a and 11a for engagement with upper ends of the side walls 4a and 4a are formed respectively on inner surfaces of these partition walls at upper end portions thereof, and extend in the longitudinal direction of these partition walls.
