ABSTRACT:
A structure for fixing contact tails of contact of a connector. The contact tails are aligned in rows and provided with holding projections to be press-fitted in fixing slits formed in a locator plate of the electrical connector. The slits are in parallel with each other with an interval equal to that of the contact tails in one row and extending at right angles to an aligned direction of the contact tails in the one row. The holding projections of the contact tails are formed larger as the contact tails located in the fixing slits are nearer to entrances of the slits. Each the fixing slit is formed in a T-shaped configuration in cross-section comprising a common locating slit portion for receiving parts of the contact tails having no holding projections and press-fixing slit portion for press-fitting the holding projections of the contact tails therein. The press-fixing slit portion comprises a plurality of slit portion sections formed progressively larger in stepwise manner as they are nearer to an entrance of the slit. The structure is capable of securely holding the contact tails even if external forces act on them in use or during transportation.
