Abstract
A battery connector in which, even when an engagement piece portion that is required for applying a preload to a contact of a contact member rubs with an engagement face formed in a wall face of a housing made of a synthetic resin, possibilities that the engagement face is shaved, and that the engagement piece portion is deformed can be eliminated. In the battery connector, a meandering contact member is housed in a housing. A mountain-like projection of the contact member is projected from an opening of the housing. An engagement piece portion formed in the mountain-like projection is engaged with an engagement face of the housing to apply a preload to the contact. The engagement piece portion has a shape which is free from an angular edge. Specifically, the engagement piece portion has a planar portion, and projection pieces which are continuously integrated with the planar portion through arcuate bent portions. Swollen portions having an arcuate face may be formed on the planar portion.
