Abstract
A connector (A) includes a resiliently deformable resilient receiving portion () arranged to traverse an opening area of a lock hole () formed in a holder () and linked to an inner surface of the lock hole () at links () on opposite ends in a longitudinal direction. A locking rib () projects from a lock projection () formed in a housing () and extends along the longitudinal direction of the resilient receiving portion (). The locking rib () causes the resilient receiving portion () to curve and deform in the process of assembling the housing () and the holder (). Escaping edges () are formed on opposite longitudinal ends of a projecting edge () of the locking rib (). The escaping edges () are oblique to the longitudinal direction of the resilient receiving portion () that is not resiliently deformed, and substantially face the links ().
