In a first contact of a connector, an insulation-displacement connection portion has two insulation-displacement blades and has a narrow slit and a wide slit. The insulation-displacement blades are different from each other in position in a first direction and correspond to the narrow slit. The insulation-displacement blades are obliquely intersected with the first direction. The narrow slit and the wide slit extend in the front-rear direction. In the first direction, the insulation-displacement blade is located between the narrow slit 362 and the wide slit 364 . In a second direction, a middle of the wide slit 364 is different from a middle of the narrow slit 362 in position. When covered wire is pushed into the narrow slit, it is pressed on the insulation-displacement blades at different timings in order.
1. A connector comprising a contact and a housing which holds the contact, wherein:
the contact is provided with an insulation-displacement connection portion to be connected to a cable;
the insulation-displacement connection portion has two insulation-displacement blades and has a narrow slit and a wide slit;
the insulation-displacement blades are different from each other in position in a first direction and correspond to the narrow slit;
each of the insulation-displacement blades intersects the first direction obliquely;
each of the narrow slit and the wide slit extends in the first direction;
in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, the narrow slit is smaller than the wide slit in size;
in the first direction, one of the insulation-displacement blades is located between the narrow slit and the wide slit; and
in the second direction, a middle of the wide slit is different from a middle of the narrow slit in position.
2. The connector as recited in claim 1 , wherein:
the insulation-displacement connection portion further has two additional insulation-displacement blades correspond to the wide slit; and
one of the additional insulation-displacement blades also serves as one of the insulation-displacement blades correspond to the narrow slit.
3. The connector as recited in claim 1 , wherein:
the connector further comprises a locator which locates the cable;
the locator is formed with a locating groove which regulates movement of the cable in both of the first direction and the second direction to locate the cable;
the insulation-displacement connection portion is to be connected to the cable located by the locating groove; and
in the second direction, a middle of the locating groove is different from the middle of the wide slit in position.
4. The connector as recited in claim 3 , wherein, in the second direction, the middle of the locating groove is identical with the middle of the narrow slit.
5. The connector as claimed in claim 3 , wherein:
the locator is formed with a guiding groove into which the insulation-displacement connection portion is inserted;
the guiding groove is provided in at least one of inner walls of the locating groove in the second direction; and
the guiding groove is recessed in the second direction and extends in the first direction.
6. The connector as recited in claim 1 , wherein:
the connector further comprises an additional contact;
the additional contact is provided with an additional insulation-displacement connection portion having a shape which is a mirror image of a shape of the insulation-displacement connection portion;
in the first direction, the insulation-displacement connection portion is identical to the additional insulation-displacement connection portion in position; and
in the second direction, the insulation-displacement connection portion is different from the additional insulation-displacement connection portion in position.
