To simplify an assembling process and reduce a height while keeping a reliable waterproof structure by improving structures of a housing and an elastic body. Provided are an insulative housing, an insulative elastic bodywhich is held by the housing, and terminal pinswhich penetrate through the elastic bodyand are held by the housing. The insulative elastic bodyhas an outside elastic portionand inside elastic portionsinto which the insulative elastic bodyis partitioned by the housingand link portionswhich link the outside elastic portionto the inside elastic portions. The housingis provided with wall portionswith which the inside elastic portionsthrough which the respective terminal pinspenetrate are in contact in a compressed state.

Waterproof connector

A spring connector with waterproofing function includes a conductive tube having a distal end that is a contact part to be contacted with an object at one side; a conductive pin having a distal end that is a contact part to be contacted with an object at the other side, and protruded from an opening at a base end of the conductive tube; a spring held inside the conductive tube, and pressing the conductive pin to urge the conductive pin so as to protrude from the conductive tube; and an elastic member having a hole into which the conductive tube is inserted to be brought into tight contact with a side face of the conductive tube, the elastic member being spread in a flange-like shape from the side face of the conductive tube.
