Patent ID: 7044788

Claim:
A connector, comprising a housing made of a synthetic resin and formed with walls arranged so that cavities are defined between two adjacent walls, terminal fittings being insertable into the respective cavities, resiliently deformable locks formed in the cavities, each lock being resiliently deformable substantially parallel to the walls in response to interference with one of said terminal fittings while inserting the terminal fitting into the cavity, the lock being engaged with the terminal fitting when the terminal fitting is inserted to a proper position for substantially preventing movement of the terminal fitting in a withdrawing direction, and an escaping recess being formed in a surface of a first of the walls substantially facing the lock in each of the cavities, and a second of the walls in each of the cavities having no escaping recess, each of the terminal fittings having a projecting piece extending between the second wall and the lock of the respective cavity.
