ABSTRACT:
Pressure-type connector 1 has a base 10 retaining a pressure contact 50 and a closure member 30 connected to the base 10 by means of a hinge 28. On a side surface of the base 10, locking bosses 18 are provided, and on the side surface of the closure member 30 locking rings 38 are located to be engaged with the locking bosses 18. At the outer end of the locking rings 38 a pair of protrusions 42 is disposed with a space between them being approximately equal to the width of the locking boss 18. When the closure member 30 is rotated toward the base 10, protrusions 42 which form the guiding device, slide along the side surfaces 24 of the locking bosses 18, thus preventing a skewed attitude relative the base 10. This arrangement makes it possible to provide for a better connection between electric wire 3 and the pressure contact 50.
