ABSTRACT:
A quick connector includes a contact and a housing fitted thereon. The contact has a first contact piece, a second contact piece which cooperates with the first contact piece to hold a core wire of an electric wire, and leg portions which are electrically connected and mechanically fixed to a circuit board. The housing has a top wall thereof formed with a core-wire insertion hole and rod insertion holes, and a peripheral wall thereof defining therein an accommodation space in which the first and second contact pieces are closely received. The quick connector permits easy insertion of an electric wire thereinto, and adequately maintains electrical connection between itself and an electric wire inserted thereinto. The holding of the electric wire can be released by inserting a releasing rod into either one of the rod insertion holes. The quick connector is suitable to be automatically installed onto a circuit board.
