ABSTRACT:
An inspection device for connectors comprises a connector support (6) and an inspection main body (3) movable relative to each other. The main body has therein a plurality of inspection pins (11) connected to an inspecting electric circuit, which inspection pins are each urged forwardly by a spring (2). A connector to be inspected has a plurality of terminal-accommodating chambers, each containing a resilient cantilever support piece (14) and a space (16) adjacent the support piece. Each inspection pin (11) includes a continuity-test surface (11a) and an incomplete-insertion detector portion (11b) protruding forwardly of the continuity-test surface, which detector portion (11b) is at the front end formed with an abutment means (11c) engageable with a corresponding abutment means (14b) of the related support piece (14). During inspection, the detector portion (11b) enters the space (16) adjacent the support piece (14) so that the continuity-test surface contacts a terminal lug (C) in fully-inserted position in the accommodating chamber. Terminal lugs are individually inspected whether in fully-inserted or incompletely-inserted position without making errors.
