Abstract:
A connector includes wires (10), a connector housing (30) to hold ends of the wires (10), sealing members mounted on the wires (10) to seal clearances between the connector housing (30) and the wires (10), and a cover (40) assembled with the connector housing (30) to cover the wires (10). The connector housing (30) has a wire pull-out surface (34F1) and cavities (35) open in the wire pull-out surface (34F1) to accommodate ends of the wires (10) and the sealing members inside. The sealing member has a wire draw-out surface (20F) and includes a wire insertion hole (21) open in the wire draw-out surface (20F). The wire (10) is inserted into the wire insertion hole (21). The cover (40) includes a cover body (41) to cover the wires (10) and guides (71) extend from the cover body (41) for contacting the wire draw-out surfaces (20F) and guiding the wires (10).
