ABSTRACT:
A connector 10, 30' has a guide member 70, 60' movably latched in its housing 12, 40'. The guide member 70, 60' is used to guide and align contact portions of male contacts. The guide member 70, 60' has a plate 72 formed with a large number of through-holes 84 to pass the male contacts therethrough. Preferably, the guide member 70 is formed with side plates 78 at both sides of the plate 72 perpendicular thereto. Latching arms 92, 94, 96 are stemmed from the free ends of the side plates 78 and extend in the opposite direction, thereby minimizing the apparent length of the latching arms 92, 94, 96 which engage with respective projections 100, 102, 104 on the inner wall of the connector housing 12.
