ELECTRIC CONNECTOR

To provide an electric connector in which a strength on an outer side wall of a connection unit positioned at an end part in a connection direction is not reduced.SOLUTION: In each of housings 70A and 70B, a blade reception part for inserting a blade into a peripheral wall formed by two side walls 81A and 91A, and 81B and 91B, and two end walls 82A and 92A, and 82B and 92B faced in a thickness direction of the blade is formed, a plurality of connection units 10 includes: an end part connection unit 10B positioned at both ends in the thickness direction of the blade; and an intermediate connection unit 10A positioned between the end part connection units. In the intermediate connection unit, engaging grooves 88A and 98A engaged with a mating connection body are opened toward the mating connection body so as to be penetrated in the thickness direction of the blade, and is formed between each end wall and each side wall in each housing. In the end part connection unit 10B, a groove of a depth of each engaging groove of the intermediate connection unit or larger is not formed between external side walls 81B-1 and 91B-1 and the end walls 82B and 92B, positioned at the outer side in the thickness direction of the blade.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】連結方向で端部に位置する接続ユニットの外方側壁の強度が低下しない電気コネクタを提供する。【解決手段】ハウジング７０Ａ，７０Ｂは、ブレードの厚み方向で対向する２つの側壁８１Ａ，９１Ａ；８１Ｂ，９１Ｂと２つの端壁８２Ａ，９２Ａ；８２Ｂ，９２Ｂとで形成された周壁内にブレードの挿入のためのブレード受入部が形成され、複数の接続ユニット１０は、ブレードの厚み方向で両端に位置する端部接続ユニット１０Ｂと、端部接続ユニット間に位置する中間接続ユニット１０Ａとを有し、中間接続ユニットは、相手接続体と係合する係合溝８８Ａ，９８Ａが、ブレードの厚み方向で貫通し相手接続体に向け開口してハウジングの端壁と側壁との間に形成され、端部接続ユニット１０Ｂは、ブレードの厚み方向で外側に位置する外方側壁８１Ｂ－１，９１Ｂ－１と端壁８２Ｂ，９２Ｂとの間に中間接続ユニットの係合溝の深さ以上での溝が形成されていない。【選択図】図４
