Abstract
The invention provides a simple means for preventing a panel connector from rotating. A circular attachment hole 2 opens into a panel 1, and a cylindrical hood 12 is formed on a male housing 10. An outer circumference face of this hood 12 has a flange 20 and retaining claws 22 and 23 formed thereon. A position fixing pin 3 protrudes from a hole edge of the attachment hole 2 at an innermost face thereof, and a position fixing recess 28 opens onto an outer circumference edge of the flange 20. A protrusion 31 protrudes from an anterior end of the hood 12 at a side thereof opposite the side provided with the position fixing recess 28. The male housing 10 is inclined, and the protrusion 31 is fitted into the hole edge of the attachment hole 2. Then the male housing 10 is returned to its straight state, using the protrusion 31 as a fulcrum, and the position fixing pin 3 is passed through the position fixing recess 28 from an insertion opening 29 thereof opening onto the outer circumference edge of the flange 20. The male housing 10 is inserted smoothly through the attachment hole 2 and is maintained in a prescribed position whereby it is prevented from rotating.
