INSERTION STRUCTURE OF CONNECTOR AND RELEASE JIG FOR CONNECTOR

To provide an insertion structure of a connector and a release jig for a connector capable of normally elastically deforming a locking lance by a release jig.SOLUTION: In a connector 1 including a housing 5 having a terminal accommodating chamber 21 for accommodating a terminal 3, an elastically deformable locking lance 39 engaged with the terminal 3 is provided inside a terminal receiving chamber 21, one side of the terminal accommodating chamber 21 is provided with a jig insertion hole 51 into which a release jig 101 that allows the inside of the terminal accommodating chamber 21 to communicate with the outside and elastically deforms the locking lance 39 can be inserted, and the housing 5 is provided with a regulation portion 57 that abuts against the release jig 101 and regulates contact between the release jig 101 and the locking lance 39 when the release jig 101 is inserted in a different direction with respect to the jig insertion hole 51.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5 【課題】解除治具によって係止ランスを正常に弾性変形させることができるコネクタ及びコネクタに対する解除治具の挿入構造を提供する。【解決手段】端子３が収容される端子収容室２１を有するハウジング５を備えたコネクタ１において、端子収容室２１の内部に、端子３に係合される弾性変形可能な係止ランス３９を設け、端子収容室２１の一側に、端子収容室２１の内部を外部に連通させ係止ランス３９を弾性変形させる解除治具１０１が挿入可能な治具挿入孔５１を設け、ハウジング５に、解除治具１０１が治具挿入孔５１に対して異なる向きで挿入されるときに、解除治具１０１と当接し解除治具１０１と係止ランス３９との当接を規制する規制部５７を設けた。【選択図】図５
