  • Patent number: 9948038
    Abstract: A connector comprises an outer member, which is made of resin coated with a conductive plating layer, and an inserted portion, which is inserted into an insertion hole of a case rearward in a front-rear direction when the connector is attached to the case. The outer member has a body portion, a flange and an attached surface which is formed of a rear surface of the body portion and a rear surface of the flange. The flange protrudes from the body portion in a perpendicular plane perpendicular to the front-rear direction. The inserted portion is located inward of the body portion in the perpendicular plane. The rear surface of the body portion is formed with a pressure contact portion which surrounds the inserted portion in the perpendicular plan. The pressure contact portion is formed with a contact surface which is located rearward of the rear surface of the flange.
