Watertight shield connector
View Patent ↗An object of the present invention is to provide a watertight shield connector able to waterproof successfully without an effect of a parting line, and surely preventing an annular packing or a shield shell from falling out with a plain structure. For attaining the object, there is provided a watertight shield connector 1 including: an insulating connector housing 4 having a terminal attaching portion 9 projected outward from a flange wall 2 , and an annular hole 19 disposed around the terminal attaching portion 9 ; a terminal 10 configured to be inserted into the terminal attaching portion 9 and having a step portion 11 a in a middle thereof; a conductive shield shell 6 having a flange plate 5 abutting on the flange wall 2 ; an annular packing 8 having an annular packing main body 30 attached to the annular hole 19 , and a flange-shaped projection 7 disposed on an outer periphery of the packing main body 30 and abutting on the flange plate 5 ; and a spacer 12 configured to be engaged with the step portion of the terminal and to abut on an outer end wall 8 a of the annular packing 8.
1. A watertight shield connector comprising:
an insulating connector housing having a flange wall, a terminal attaching portion projected outward from the flange wall, and an annular hole disposed around the terminal attaching portion;
a terminal configured to be inserted into the terminal attaching portion and having a step portion in a middle thereof;
a conductive shield shell having a flange plate abutting on the flange wall;
an annular packing having an annular packing main body attached to the annular hole, and a flange-shaped projection disposed on an outer periphery of the packing main body and abutting on the flange plate; and
a spacer configured to be engaged with the step portion of the terminal and to abut on an outer end wall of the annular packing.
2. The watertight shield connector as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein a frame wall for terminal insertion is provided in a projecting manner in a terminal guide wall extended from the terminal attaching portion, and
wherein the spacer is inserted into a space between the terminal attaching portion and the frame wall, and the spacer abuts on an end wall of the frame wall.
3. The watertight shield connector as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein a projection of the spacer engaged with the step portion is extended to abut on an another outer end wall of the annular packing.
4. The watertight shield connector as claimed in claim 2 ,
wherein a projection of the spacer engaged with the step portion is extended to abut on an another outer end wall of the annular packing.
