Abstract
A lance of a connector housing includes a pressed portion disposed at a free end of the lance, a buckling portion disposed closer to a fixed end of the lance opposite the free end than the pressed portion, and a buckling resisting portion disposed between the pressed portion and the buckling portion. The buckling portion buckles when a force exceeding a predetermined tolerance limit is applied to the pressed portion and the buckling resisting portion permits the buckling portion to buckle while reducing buckling of the pressed portion.
