Patent ID: 6957981

Claim:
An electrical connector formed by insert molding a portion of a code ( 11 ) having plural electric wires ( 12 ), and a portion of a metallic terminal ( 14 ) having electric wire connection parts ( 14 c ) connected to the ends of the respective electric wires ( 12 ) individually and electrically in a connector housing ( 16 ) made of a synthetic resin, wherein a holder ( 15 ) covered at least partially with the connector housing ( 16 ) comprises holding portions ( 17 ) for holding the plural terminals ( 14 ) arranged in parallel respectively, plural containment grooves ( 18 ) contiguous with the respective holding portions ( 17 ) so as to accommodate the electric wire connection parts ( 14 c ) of the respective terminals ( 14 ) held in the holding portions ( 17 ) and a portion of the electric wires ( 12 ) to be connected with the electric wire connection parts ( 14 c ), a welding window ( 19 ) formed by recessing a portion of the bottom for each of the containment groove ( 18 ) so that the electric wire connection part ( 14 c ) and the terminal of each of the electric wires ( 12 ) can be connected electrical by resistance welding, and plural supports ( 20 , 21 ) abutting against and supported on a die for molding the connector housing ( 16 ), and wherein the holder ( 15 ), a portion of the plural terminals ( 14 ) joined with the holder ( 15 ) and a portion of the code ( 11 ) with each of the electric wires ( 12 ) thereof being connected electrically to each of the terminals ( 14 ) are covered with the connector housing ( 16 ) with the top end of each of the supports ( 20 , 21 ) being exposed to the outer surface of the connector housing ( 16 ).
