Summary:To provide an electric connector in which the size of a housing in the longitudinal direction is reduced.SOLUTION: A female connector 10 has a housing 1 and a retainer 3. On the housing 1, cavities 11c into which a female terminal 5 can be inserted are arranged in parallel to one another. The housing 1 has ribs 11r protruding from both lateral surfaces. The retainer 3 has a detachment prevention part 31c which can be inserted from an insertion opening 111 on the housing 1 so as to prevent the detachment of the female terminal 5. Each of the ribs 11r internally has a temporary locking part 1fr and a regular locking part 1sr. The retainer 3 has a locking protrusion 31 which can be locked to the temporary locking part 1fr or the regular locking part 1sr. The female connector 10 has, on both lateral surfaces of the housing 1, the ribs 11r for restricting a fitting direction to a mating connector, and it has a locking structure to the retainer 3 inside each of the ribs 11r. This makes it possible to reduce the size of the housing 1 in the longitudinal direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5 【課題】ハウジングの長手方向のサイズを小型化した電気コネクタを提供する。【解決手段】メスコネクタ10は、ハウジング1とリテーナ3を備える。ハウジング1は、雌端子5を挿入可能なキャビティ11cを並列配置している。ハウジング1は、両側面から突出したリブ11rを有する。リテーナ3は、ハウジング1の挿入開口111から挿入でき、雌端子5を抜け止めできる抜け止め部31cを有する。リブ11rは、仮ロック部1frと本ロック部1srを内部に形成している。リテーナ3は、仮ロック部1fr又は本ロック部1srに係止可能な係止突起31を有する。メスコネクタ10は、相手側コネクタとの嵌合方向を規制するリブ11rをハウジング1の両側面に設け、リテーナ3との係止構造をリブ11rの内部に構成しているので、ハウジング1の長手方向のサイズを小型化できる。【選択図】図5
