Abstract:
1. An insulator-combining apparatus for assembling a connector by laminating electrical insulators each holding a plurality of terminals in a lined-up form, said insulator including a wall on which the terminal is placed and an identification part which indicates an order of lamination upon the assembling of the connector, the apparatus comprising: a plurality of holders which approach and leave each other, attach the insulators thereon on a condition which a plurality of walls are spaced from each other, and each include first corresponding parts corresponding to the identification parts of the corresponding insulators; a combining part which causes the holders to approach each other and laminates the insulators; and an erroneous attaching-preventing means which permits the holders to approach each other when the insulators each having the correct identification parts corresponding to the holders are attached on the holders and prevents the holders from approaching each other when at least one holder attaches the insulator having an incorrect identification part, wherein the holder includes: wherein the erroneous attaching-preventing means includes:
