Patent ID: 11411333

Abstract:
A connector assembly can be easily and certainly attached to a surface of a substrate while having a simple configuration, and high airtightness or watertightness is certainly maintained to improve reliability. The connector assembly includes: a connector including a connector body, a terminal attached to the connector body, and a reinforcing metal fitting attached to the connector body, the connector being attached to a surface of a substrate; and a protective member including a pair of parallel first walls extending in a longitudinal direction of the connector body, a pair of parallel second walls extending in a width direction of the connector body, the pair of second walls being connected to both ends of each of the pair of first walls, and an opening in which four sides of periphery are defined by the first wall and the second wall, the protective member being attachable to the surface of the substrate with the connector accommodated in the opening. The protective member is placed on the surface of the substrate while coupled to the connector with the connector accommodated in the opening.
