ABSTRACT:
A waterproof connector (100) receives female connection terminals (17) connected respectively to one ends of wires (21), and can be fitted to a mating connector (150) to be electrically connected thereto. The waterproof connector (100) includes an outer housing (11), an inner housing (13) which is provided within the outer housing (11), and holds the connection terminals (17) in such a manner that the inner housing is held in intimate contact with at least one of an outer peripheral surface of a wire press-fitting portion (17) of each connection terminal (17) and an outer peripheral surface of the associated wire (21), and a waterproof mechanism (15) which is made of a thermoplastic synthetic resin, and forms a liquid-tight seal between the wires (21), the outer housing (11) and the inner housing (13). The waterproof mechanism (15) is formed by the cured hot-melt adhesive.
