Abstract
A connector includes a housing in which a terminal fitting is stored, and a cover. A guiding structure configured to guide the housing and the cover in a connection direction, and a holding structure configured to hold the housing and the cover at a connection completed position are provided between the housing and the cover. The guiding structure includes a wedge guiding protrusion provided to the cover, and a wedge guiding groove provided to the housing. The wedge guiding protrusion and the wedge guiding groove are formed to have a gap between a protrusion-side wall surface and a groove-side wall surface disposed opposite to each other in each of two pairs. The holding structure includes a press-fit protrusion being configured to hold the wedge guiding protrusion and the wedge guiding groove in a press-fitted state when the housing and the cover are at the connection completed position.
