ABSTRACT:
The present invention is to provide a waterproof connector having an adjusted spacing between terminals or electrical wires for achieving an effective waterproof. The electrical wires received in a terminal receiving portion of an outer housing are guided to a wire seal fit portion, while the electrical wires are pressed with wire holders (displacement limit portions). The electrical wires are then passed through a holder (spacing adjusting portion), a seal member, and another holder (lead-out portion) of a wire seal in the wire seal fit portion. The wire seal is fitted into the wire seal fit portion for achieving waterproof of the waterproof connector. The electrical wires guided out of the lead-out portion have an equal spacing therebetween by expansion of the spacings between the electrical wires or displacements thereof. The equal spacing ensures insertion of the seal member and provides the effective waterproof.
