ABSTRACT:
A waterproof cover for a connector includes a rear holder portion attached to a rear portion of a connector housing to hold terminals inserted into terminal insertion holes of the connector housing from a rear side of the connector housing; and a waterproof cover portion attached to a rear side of the rear holder portion to cover wires extending rearward from the terminals. The waterproof cover has a pair of first and second cover halves; a hinge for linking a pair of the first and second cover halves so as to be opened and closed relative to each other; and a lock mechanism for locking a pair of the first and second cover halves when the two cover halves are closed. In particular, a front end surface of the first cover half is formed integrally with an outer circumference of the rear holder portion so as to form an end surface plate of the first cover half along roughly all over the circumference of the first cover half. Therefore, even if the hinge is broken or damaged, the waterproof cover will not be removed from the rear holder portion.
