Abstract

A contact is accommodated in a contact accommodating portion of a second insulator, an end portion of an electric wire is accommodated in an opened electric-wire-end-portion accommodating portion of a projection of a first insulator, the projection is accommodated in a projection accommodating portion of a contact with a flexible conductor being sandwiched therebetween and such that the opened electric-wire-end-portion accommodating portion is opposed to an electric-wire connection piece of the contact, the electric wire extends from the electric-wire-end-portion accommodating portion and makes contact with an electric-wire contact portion of the electric-wire connection piece of the contact, and a part of the flexible conductor is sandwiched between an outer surface of the projection and a conductor contact piece of the contact and makes contact with the conductor contact piece of the contact, whereby the electric wire is electrically connected to the flexible conductor via the contact.
