ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an electrical connector having a terminal extracting block for extracting terminals from terminal accommodating cavities and for fixing the terminals in position. The electrical connector according to the present invention comprising: a housing having terminal accommodating cavities and a resilient locking arm for preventing a terminal accommodated in the terminal accommodating cavities each from slipping off backward, the terminal accommodating cavities each having opposing inner walls, the resilient locking arm extruding from one of the inner opposing walls toward a front open end of the terminal accommodating cavities each with a vacant space being formed between the one of the opposing walls and the resilient locking arm; and a terminal extracting block having arm disconnecting pieces, the arm disconnecting pieces each having a tapered arm disconnecting face at a free end thereof, wherein the terminal extracting block moves from a locking position to an arm disconnecting position to allow the arm disconnecting face of the arm disconnecting piece to slidably contact a tip of the resilient locking arm, which causes the resilient locking arm to bend toward the one inner wall so that the terminal is disconnected from the resilient locking arm.
