本体から端子が抜けないような構造になっている。The terminals of the electric connector have a structure in which the mating terminal inserted through the insertion hole of the connector body is inserted and coupled with a force greater than a predetermined value. Therefore, when the mating terminal is pulled out, the connector body is pulled out. A tensile force is generated on the inner terminal. Therefore, in the electric connector, each terminal is press-fitted and attached from the other end side of the connector main body to generate a pulling force of the mating terminal in the press-fitting direction of the terminal so that the terminal does not come off from the connector main body. It has become.
