The terminal portion of the flexible wiring member 40 having a part exposed on one surface is placed in a terminal accommodating portion 82 formed in the housing 80 of the connector 31, and the slider 90 is fitted to the housing 80. In the coupling structure in which the terminal 84 provided in the portion 82 is brought into contact with the conductor 41 exposed at the terminal of the flexible wiring member 40, the terminal 84 and the conductor 41 are brought into contact in an appropriate state. In this case, it is necessary to insert the terminal of the flexible wiring member 40 straight to the contact position in the housing 80.

いという問題がある。However, since the terminal 84 is disposed inside the housing 80 and the contact state between the terminal 84 and the conductor cannot be visually recognized from the outside, the terminal portion of the flexible wiring member 40 is located at the contact position. It is difficult to confirm whether or not it is inserted straight. For this reason, when the insertion position of the flexible wiring member 40 is improper in a half-inserted state or in an oblique insertion state in which the insertion angle of the flexible wiring member 40 with respect to the housing 80 is inclined,
When the slider 90 is fitted to the housing 80, there is a problem that a contact failure between the terminal 84 and the conductor 41 is likely to occur.

たりし易いという問題があった。When the slider 90 is fitted to the housing 80 with the terminal of the flexible wiring member 40 properly inserted, the conductor contact portion 83 of the terminal 84 and the exposed portion of the conductor 41 are formed. Even when the flexible wiring member 40 is properly contacted, the contact state is maintained only by the pressing force of the tongue piece 92.
When the wire is pulled outward by a strong force, there is a problem that the contact position between the terminal 84 and the conductor 41 shifts to cause a contact failure, and the flexible wiring member 40 is easily pulled out of the housing 80.

保持させることができる。As described above, the present invention relates to a connection structure between a flat flexible wiring member provided with a conductor and a connector, wherein the connector has a housing having a terminal accommodating portion, and A slider fitted to the housing to contact the terminal with the conductor of the flexible wiring member, forming a hole in a terminal portion of the flexible wiring member, and engaging with the hole at the time of fitting the slider. Since the protrusions formed on the slider are formed on the slider, the terminals disposed in the housing of the connector and the conductor provided on the terminal portion of the flexible wiring member can be brought into proper contact with each other with a simple configuration. The contact state can be stably maintained.
