ABSTRACT:
A connector (2) has reliable projections (4, 6) which extend from the housing (12). Each projection (4, 6) has cavities (12, 34) which are provided proximate thereto. Ribs (26, 50) extend from the sidewalls of the cavities toward the projections. The ribs (26, 50) cooperate with intermediate portions (20, 46), such that as forces are applied to free end portions (22, 48) of the projections (4, 6), the intermediate portions (20, 46) engage the ribs (26, 50). The engagement of the intermediate portions and the ribs insures that the moment, which is created by force (F), will be distributed to the intermediate portions rather than to a fixed end portion (18, 44) of the projection, thereby insuring that a reliable structural interconnection is made.
