ABSTRACT:
A connector includes an insulator having contact receiving portions and a retainer receiving portion that communicate with each other. The connector further includes conductive contacts inserted into the contact receiving portions from a first direction, respectively. The connector further includes a retainer inserted into the retainer receiving portion from the first direction for preventing the contacts from coming off in a direction opposite to the first direction. The retainer includes a body portion and a pair of elastic pieces each elastically deformable and joined to the body portion. The body portion has a pair of excessive deformation preventing portions each for preventing excessive deformation of the corresponding elastic piece toward the body portion. The elastic pieces each have a specific lock portion, and the insulator has a pair of specific lock receiving portions each for locking the corresponding specific lock portion when the retainer is inserted to a predetermined position of the retainer receiving portion.
