ABSTRACT:
A connector in which the longitudinal displacement of connection terminals is positively prevented even if electric wires are pulled rearwardly by an external force, so that the fitting property of the connector to a partner connector can be improved. In the connector according to the present invention, a plurality of solderless terminals (1) are chained to a carrier having feed holes (11), with each of the terminals having an electric-wire solderless contact portion (5) provided with a slot (4) for solderlessly connecting an electric wire. The terminals are severed from the carrier in such a manner that portions of feed holes (11) of the carrier remain in the rear end portions of the solderless terminals (1). Additionally, fitting portions (14) to be fitted into the feed holes (11) are formed on the bottom walls of a terminal holder (2) in which the terminals are received. Since the feed holes (11) are provided in the rear end portions of the solderless terminals (1), the strength of the solderless terminals (1) is not reduced. Furthermore, since the fitting portions (14) are provided so as to project from the bottom walls (12) of the terminal holder (2), the strength of the bottom walls (12) is likewise not reduced.
