Abstract
A waterproof connector configured such that parts constituting the connector can be assembled together in a work site and can be assembled easily. The waterproof connector is provided with a terminal (40) joined by crimping to a conductor (121) of a cable (12), a retaining sleeve (60) mounted so as to extend from the vicinity of the rearward end of the terminal (40) and across an outer casing (122) of the cable (12), a body housing (70) having formed therein a tubular bore (71) for containing the retaining sleeve (60), and a fastening nut (90) mounted on the rearward end side of the body housing (70). When a substantially half of the forward end side of the retaining sleeve (60) is inserted into the tubular bore (71) in the body housing (70) and the fastening nut (90) is engaged with a male thread portion (76) formed on the exterior of the tubular bore (71), an end of the retaining sleeve (60) is reduced in diameter by being pressed by constricting tapered portions (75, 92), and as a result, the terminal (40) and the outer casing (122) of the cable (12) are held watertight.
