Abstract
A waterproof connector is provided of a type in which terminals are inserted by an after-fitting operation into a connector housing with a waterproof rubber plug fitted thereto, in which the rubber plug is prevented from shifting in position from the connector housing during the insertion of the terminals to thereby facilitate terminal insertion operation. A waterproof rubber plug (2) consists of an integral combination of a sealing rubber plate part (9) including a plurality of insertion holes to be in close contact with their respective terminals (A), and a shift-preventing resin plate (10) including windows (14) for arranging the insertion holes of the rubber plate part (9) therein by groups each comprising a given number of insertion holes. The resin plate (10) further includes engaging groove portions (16) which are engageable with securing projections (18) provided in a housing main body (1a). As a result, the waterproof rubber plug (2) can be positioned at and restricted to a given position within the housing main body (1a).
