ABSTRACT:
An electric connector for electrically and mechanically connecting two articles, each having a conductive part, is able to reduce the number of electric connectors used in a connecting structure, to reduce the connecting work so as to reduce the costs of the connecting structure, and to make the connecting structure more compact. This electric connector includes a housing, which is fitted to at least one of the articles, and a contact, which is provided on the housing and has a connecting part to be connected to a conductive part of the first article and a contacting part to be made to press against and contact a conductive part of the second article. Elastic deflectable wings or locking pawls protrude from the housing to secure the connector to at least one of the articles.
