ABSTRACT:
A shield connector has a double retainment mechanism used for electric wirings of automobiles, and the object thereof is to provide a shield connector that is highly reliable and excellent in operability. Retaining arms for a terminal are arranged on a terminal housing so as to be erectable; in the retaining arms, a retaining projection having a tapered portion is arranged; the terminal housing having the terminal received in a terminal receiving chamber primarily retained by a retaining strip arranged on the terminal receiving chamber is inserted into an inner sleeve of a housing cover; whereby the tapered portion comes in contact with a guide slope arranged in the inner sleeve of the housing cover and is urged to thereby cause the retaining arms to fall down. As a result, the retaining projection gets fitted into a retaining portion of the terminal, so that the terminal can be doubly retained.
