Electrical connector

1. An electrical connector, to which a single wire is to be connected, the electrical connector to be electrically connected to a counterpart connector, and the electrical connector comprising:

a housing;

a terminal to which the single wire is to be connected, the terminal being provided in the housing; and

a holding member for holding the single wire in a given extending direction, the holding member being mounted to an end part of the housing, the end part being on a side of the housing at which the single wire is connected, wherein

the terminal has a single wire insertion part having an inserting port into which a tip part of the single wire is inserted; a single wire connecting part to be electrically connected to the tip part of the single wire; and a counterpart terminal connecting part to be electrically connected to a counterpart terminal of the counterpart connector;

the holding member and/or the housing has a leading-out part to lead out the single wire from an inside of the housing to an outside of the housing;

the leading-out part is configured to lead out the single wire being bent and extending in the given extending direction so as to cross an axis direction of the tip part of the single wire connected to the single wire connecting part, and

wherein the leading-out part has a pair of wall parts to abut against the single wire such that the tip part of the single wire does not rotate around the axis of the tip part.

2. The electrical connector according to claim 1 , wherein the single wire connecting part comprises a pair of contact spring parts pinching the tip part of the single wire from both sides of the single wire.

3. The electrical connector according to claim 1 , wherein the holding member has an engaging part to engage with an engaged part provided on a side face of the housing, and the engaging part is provided at a position being adjacent to the leading-out part.

4. The electrical connector according to claim 1 , wherein the holding member has a pressing face extending in a direction being perpendicular to the axis direction of the tip part of the single wire.

5. The electrical connector according to claim 1 , wherein the holding member and/or the housing further has a second leading-out part, and

in a case that the single wire is bent in a second direction other than the extending direction of the single wire being led out in the leading-out part, the second leading-out part is configured to lead out the single wire in the second direction.

6. The electrical connector according to claim 1 , wherein the holding member further has a third leading-out part, and

in a case that the single wire extends along the axis direction of the tip part of the single wire, the third leading-out part is configured to lead out the single wire in the axis direction of the tip part of the single wire.

7. The electrical connector according to claim 1 ,

wherein the holding member has a plurality of engaging parts engaging with an engaged part provided on a side face of the housing, the plurality of engaging parts extending in the axis direction of the tip part of the single wire and parallel to one another, and

wherein an edge of one of neighboring engaging parts constitutes one of the pair of wall parts, and an edge of the other of the neighboring engaging parts constitutes the other of the pair of wall parts.

8. The electrical connector according to claim 1 , wherein the pair of wall parts is separated from each other at a distance corresponding to a diameter of the single wire.
