Abstract: A charging connector includes a connector housing formed with a terminal accommodation chamber, a terminal accommodated in the terminal accommodation chamber and having a cable connected thereto, a waterproof member protecting a connection part of the terminal and the cable to form a waterproof region, and a thermistor directly contacting the terminal at an outside position of the waterproof region.

Abstract: A connector includes a terminal, a connector housing, a temperature sensor, and a holder. The connector housing houses the terminal. The temperature sensor defines the terminal or an electric wire connected to the terminal as a temperature detection target, and detects temperature of the temperature detection target. The holder houses and holds the terminal, the electric wire, and the temperature sensor. The holder includes at least one first pressing portion and a second pressing portion. The first pressing portion projects toward the housed temperature sensor, and presses and pushes the temperature sensor to the temperature detection target. The second pressing portion presses and pushes the housed temperature detection target to the temperature sensor.

Abstract: A connector includes first terminals configured to be connected to first electric cables, a housing having terminal housing cylinder portions configured to contain the first terminals in parallel, terminal housing portions provided between the terminal housing cylinder portions, second terminals configured to be connected to second electric cables and to be contained in the terminal housing portions, and fasteners configured to fasten and fix terminal metal fittings connected to end portions of the first electric cables to the first terminals protruding from rear ends of the pair of terminal housing cylinder portions. By the fasteners, the terminal metal fittings are fixed to side faces of the first terminals from directions intersecting with axis directions of the first terminals, the side faces being opposite to faces of the first terminals which face each other.

Abstract: A connector includes a housing configured to be supported by an attachment object and a terminal configured to be supported by the housing, and the terminal is configured to be electrically connected to a counterpart terminal of a counterpart connector when the counterpart connector is fitted to the connector. The housing includes a body portion having an inner cylinder portion to which the terminal is assembled and to which a counterpart housing of the counterpart connector can be fitted and an attachment portion having an outer cylinder portion which is configured to be fixed to the attachment object and to which the inner cylinder portion is fitted. The body portion is assembled to the attachment portion in a state that the inner cylinder portion fitted to the outer cylinder portion penetrates the outer cylinder portion.

Abstract: A connector includes a terminal configured to be connected to an electric cable, a housing configured to contain the terminal, a terminal holder configured to be attached to the housing, and has a housing space portion configured to contain a connection part between the terminal and an end portion of the electric cable, a sensor housing portion provided in the terminal holder adjacently to the housing space portion, and a temperature sensor configured to be contain and held in the sensor housing portion. The temperature sensor has an end face which is located on a front side in a mounting direction of the terminal holder into the housing. The end face of the temperature sensor is exposed from the sensor housing portion and is brought into directly abutment against the terminal.
