ELECTRIC CONNECTOR FOR BOARDS, METHOD FOR FORMING HOUSING OF ELECTRIC CONNECTOR FOR BOARDS, AND METAL MOLD OF INJECTION MOLDING FOR FORMING ELECTRIC CONNECTOR FOR BOARDS

摘要

The housing 3 made of an insulating synthetic resin has a connecting recess 13 opened in the connecting direction Y. The side walls 14 defining the connecting recess 13 is provided with terminal retainer recesses 18 arranged side by side in the lateral direction X. The openings 25 are formed in the portion of the outer side surface of each side wall 14 which correspond to the partition walls 26 separating adj acent terminal retainer recesses 18 from each other. The openings 25 have the terminal retainer holes 18, which are formed on both sides of the corresponding partition walls 26, opened to the exterior thereof. When the housing 3 is molded, the pins for forming the openings 25 are interposed among the ribs of the metal mold which are used to form the adjacent terminal retainer recesses 18, the deformation of the ribs being thereby held down.
