A joint portion of the electric wires is inserted into the cap main body and locked or fixed by the cover. The cover has a locking portion for the joint portion and a locking portion for the cap main body. The cover is an elastic packing material. An outer wall of the cover contacts firmly with an inner wall of the cap main body. The electric wires contact firmly with the hole of the cover. An abutting portion is disposed in the cap main body to prevent the cover from being pulled out. The cover is formed from a disk plate by making a cutout in the hole and overlapping end surfaces of the cutout.

Abstract: A waterproof connector includes a tubular outer housing which has an opening, an inner housing which is inserted into the tubular outer housing and is held in the tubular outer housing and a vessel portion. The inner housing includes a plurality of terminal receiving chambers, a plurality of connection terminals which are provided on the terminal receiving chambers respectively, and a plurality of wires which are respectively connected to the connection terminals, and extends in the terminal receiving chambers toward an outside through the opening. The vessel portion is formed by an inner circumference of end portion of the tubular outer housing at an opening side and an end face of the inner housing from which the wires are extended toward the outside. A sealing material is filled in the vessel portion for waterproofing the wires collectively.

Abstract: An end-processing structure of a flat cable includes a flat cable, a connector housing, a plurality of pressure terminal fittings, respectively having press-contacting blades, and mounted in the housing and a cover attached to the housing to cover a press-contacting part of the flat cable which is press contacted with the press-contacting blades. The flat cable includes a plurality of sheathed conductors, each conductor covered with an insulative sheath and a plurality of connecting portions interconnecting the parallel sheathed conductors. The flat cable has an interconnecting part in which the conductors are interconnected with the connecting portions and a press-contacting part in which the conductors are separated from each other. First and second interconnecting parts extending from the press-contacting part are folded back from first and second sides of the cover, respectively.

Abstract: An end-processing structure of a flat cable includes a flat cable, a connector housing, a plurality of pressure terminal fittings, respectively having press-contacting blades, and mounted in the connector housing and a cover attached to the connector housing to cover a press-contacting part of the flat cable which is press contacted with the press-contacting blades. The a flat cable includes a plurality of sheathed conductors, each conductor being covered with an insulative sheath and a plurality of connecting portions, each interconnecting the sheathed conductors arranged in parallel. The flat cable has an interconnecting part in which the sheathed conductors are interconnected with the connecting portions and the press-contacting part in which the sheathed conductors are separated with each other. A first interconnecting part extended from the press-contacting part and having end faces of a distal end portion of the flat cable is drew out from a first side of the cover along an outer face of the cover.

Abstract: A pair of connectors which are designed so that at least one of the connectors is made movable not only in the X and Y directions but also in the Z direction so that the pair of connectors are fitted to each other in normal positions smoothly and securely. A pair of connector casings containing a pair of connectors respectively, which are designed so that at least one of the connector casings is made movable not only in the X and Y directions but also in the Z direction so that the pair of connectors are fitted to each other in normal positions smoothly and securely. Preferably, an elastic or flexible member is provided in at least one of the connector and the connector casing so that the connector or the connector casing is made movable in the X, Y and Z directions. Alternatively, a holding member using an elastic or flexible member is interposed so that the connector or the connector casing is made movable in the X, Y and Z directions.

Abstract: Slide portions 23 and connectors 28 are provided in an apparatus 6, guide portions 7 and inclined guide portions 5 are provided in a receiving portion 2, and slide portions 10 are provided in connection bodies 40. The apparatus abuts on the connection bodies, so that the connectors 28 face the connection bodies in the connector fitting direction. A plurality of stages of connectors may be provided in the apparatus and a plurality of stages of inclined guide portions may be provided so that slide portions of the connection bodies are engaged with the inclined guide portions respectively. The inclined guide portions are provided so as to be displaced in the apparatus pushing-in direction. Horizontal escape portions are continued to one of the inclined guide slots. Each of the connection bodies may contain a connector frame. Each slid portion may includes a flat portion or two slide protrusion contacting with the inclined guide slot.

Abstract: A movable connector is provided. The connector is inserted into a panel hole so as to engage stoppers of movable locking arms with the inner rim of the panel hole. Thus, the connector can be movably mounted to the panel by virtue of the elasticity of the movable locking arms. Fixed locking members each having a stopper head at the top of the pin are provided outside the movable locking arms, while locking member receiving holes are formed through the panel. When the connector moves toward one side within the panel hole and approaches or reaches the disengagement position, where the movable locking arm on the opposite side is disengaged from the panel hole, the bottom surface of the stopper head of the corresponding fixed locking member is engaged with the rim of the corresponding locking member receiving hole so as to re-lock the connector to the panel.
