Abstract
A double retaining connector having a terminal retaining member (4) movably mounted in an intermediate portion of a connector housing (1) having terminal receiving chambers (17). Cam pins (5) are formed on opposite side surfaces of the terminal retaining member to drive the terminal retaining member between a stand-by position, in which terminal receiving portions in the terminal retaining member communicate respectively with the terminal receiving chambers, and a retaining position, in which terminal retaining portions (6) engage the terminals. A detection member (8) having cam bars (9) with slide surfaces (cam groove 10) for engagement with the associated cam pin, is removably attached to a rear end of the housing. A short-distance movement of the terminal retaining member (4) from the stand-by position into the retaining position is effected through a long-distance movement of the detection member (8) in a direction parallel to the axes of the terminals.
