ABSTRACT:
A pressure contact type connector for a flat cable wherein each conductor wire is pressed into U-shaped terminal members arranged in a first row and a second row. The terminal members in each of the first and second rows are disposed to form a zigzag arrangement having a pitch twice as large as the pitch of the conductor wires of the cable. The cable is arranged in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the terminal members. Each one of the terminal members in a first row is disposed to be shifted by one conductor wire arrangement pitch with respect to the corresponding one in the second row. A first cable housing includes a height at least equal to the length of a portion of the terminal member projecting out of an end surface of the contact housing and includes insertion through holes for the terminal members and a plurality of grooves disposed to cross the insertion through holes for receiving the terminal members and the conductor wire connecting portions for pressing into the terminal members. Both side edges of each strip-like top side surface between two adjoining side edges of the grooves form a cutting edge. A second cable housing includes a plurality of projections for mating with the plurality of grooves of the first cable housing. The projections are provided with insertion grooves for receiving the terminal members inserted thereinto. Both side edges of said second cable housing form a cutting edge.
