Abstract
The sealing element of the waterproof connector has a shape in which a family seal portion that waterproofs the peripheries of electric wires which are sandwiched between an inner housing and an outer housing, and which are not illustrated, and a seal ring portion that performs waterproofing between the seal ring portion and a mating housing are integrated. The standing board portions of the inner housing penetrate the long openings of the sealing element, and the portion to be caught of the outer housing is caught by catch protrusion portions that are formed in upper portions of the standing board portions and each have a hook shape, whereby the inner housing and the outer housing are assembled in a state in which the family seal portion of the sealing element is sandwiched between the inner housing and the outer housing. The mating housing comes into contact with the third waterproof portion of the sealing element, which acts as the seal ring portion.
