A connector (relay connector 10 ) disclosed by this specification includes a first housing 21 having a terminal accommodating portion 24 into which first terminals 22 are to be accommodated, a second housing 51 including a receptacle 52 into which the first housing 21 is to be accommodated, the receptacle 52 being annularly continuous over an entire periphery, rubber plugs 30 fixed to the first terminals 22 and accommodated inside a rubber plug accommodating portion 25 provided to project rearward from a rear surface 24 A of the terminal accommodating portion 24 , and a potting agent 60 filled between an inner peripheral surface of the receptacle 52 and an outer peripheral surface of the first housing 21.
1. A connector, comprising:
a first housing including a terminal accommodating portion having opposite front and rear ends, a rubber plug accommodating portion projecting from the rear end of the terminal accommodating portion and being cross-sectionally smaller than the terminal accommodating portion, and a first terminal being accommodated into the terminal accommodating portion;
a second housing extending in forward to backward directions and including a receptacle annularly continuous over an entire periphery and open along an opening side of the second housing, and the first housing accommodated in the receptacle through the opening side so that the rear end of the terminal accommodating portion of the first housing is more forward than a front end of the second housing;
a rubber plug fixed to the first terminal and accommodated inside the rubber plug accommodating portion provided to project; and
a potting agent filled into a rearwardly-open filling space defined by an inner peripheral surface of the receptacle, the rear end of the terminal accommodating portion, the rubber plug accommodating portion outer peripheral surface, and the opening side of the second housing.
2. The connector of claim 1 , wherein the terminal accommodating portion includes a press-fit projection to be press-fit into a press-fit recess provided in a back end part of the receptacle, and the terminal accommodating portion is held accommodated inside the receptacle by press-fitting the press-fit projection into the press-fit recess.
