Abstract
The present invention provides a crack-free electrical connection structure between electrical components and a circuit board in a connector device by soldering electrical wires to through-holes of the circuit board. Retention members (40) formed integrally with the connector device have slots (36) and channels (58, 62) intersecting inside the slots (36). Projections (54) are located at an exit of each channel (58). Ends of electrical wires (90) are stripped to expose core conductors (92) and they are bent in a generally L-shape to be disposed in the respective channels (58, 62) of slots 36. The projections (54) keep the exposed core conductors (92) in position, thereby simplifying electrical connection with through-holes in the circuit board.
