Abstract

A connector (10) comprises an accommodating member (31) that accommodates a female terminal fitting (33), and a cover member (32) that covers the female terminal fitting (33) accommodated by the accommodating member (31). The accommodating member (31) has a locking part (31J), and the cover member (32) has a locked part (32D) to which the locking part (31J) is locked. The locking part (31J) is elastically deformed in a downward direction (prescribed direction) by the locked part (32D), elastically restored, and then locked to the locked part (32D). The cover member (32) has a restricting part (32G). In a state in which the locking part (31J) is elastically deformed in the downward direction (prescribed direction) by the locked part (32D), the restricting part (32G) restricts the cover member (32) from separating from the accommodating member (31) in an upward direction opposite to the downward direction (prescribed direction).

Abstract

The present invention stabilizes shield performance. A first outer conductor (13) has a plurality of movable contacts (31, 32) formed individually in a plurality of spring parts (29, 30), and fixed contacts (27) that are restricted from moving relative to a cylindrical body section (17). A second outer conductor (54) contacts the plurality of contacts (27, 31, 32) in the radial direction. The number of the fixed contacts (27) is only two. The resultant force of a plurality of radially-inward pressing forces (41, 42) that are generated between the two outer conductors (13, 54) owing to the elastic force of the plurality of spring parts (29, 30) is represented as one resultant force vector (43). When the resultant force vector (43) is arranged such that a shaft center (21) of the two outer conductors (13, 54) is the starting point, the resultant force vector (43) is positioned in an inferior-arc-side region (37) demarcated by two line segments (35) passing through the two fixed contacts (27) with the shaft center (21) as the starting point.

The first cutoff unit (82A) is provided between a first conductive path (80A) and a second conductive path (80B), and switches from a first permission state in which the flow of an electric current between the first conductive path (80A) side and the second conductive path (80B) side is permitted to a first cutoff state in which the flow of the electric current from the first conductive path (80A) side to the second conductive path (80B) side is cut off. The second cutoff unit (82B) is provided between the first conductive path (80A) and a third conductive path (80C), and switches from a second permission state in which the flow of an electric current between the first conductive path (80A) side and the third conductive path (80C) side is permitted to a second cutoff state in which the flow of the electric current from the first conductive path (80A) side to the third conductive path (80C) side is cut off. During travel and parking of a vehicle (C), the control unit (86) maintains the second cutoff unit (82B) in the second permission state while maintaining the first cutoff unit (82A) in the first permission state.
