Patent number: 9608359Abstract: A waterproof connector is configured in such a manner that the waterproof properties between a housing and electrically conductive members, such as a shell and contacts, are improved. This waterproof connector includes a housing having an insulating resin and at least one electrically conductive member formed integrally with the housing. The electrically conductive member has a connection section which is exposed from the housing and connected to a mating connector, a mounting section which is exposed from the housing and mounted to a circuit board, and a holding section which connects the connection section and the mounting section, and which is embedded in the housing. A waterproof shaped section for blocking the entry of water along the interfaces between the holding section and the housing is formed on the surface of the holding section.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 2013Date of Patent: March 28, 2017Assignee: JAPAN AVIATION ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY, LIMITEDInventors: Katsumi Arai, Masayuki Nishikata, Masakazu Kobayashi, Fumiki Yamada, Hiroshi Akimoto
