Abstract

A light guiding structure for electric connector includes an insertion base being provided at two opposite lateral sides with a recessed portion each; at least two light-guiding units being separately connected to the two lateral sides of the insertion base, and respectively having an end formed into two engaging sections for fitting in the recessed portions; and an enclosure for enclosing the insertion base and the light-guiding units therein. The light guiding structure for electric connector can be easily and firmly assembled through engagement of the engaging sections of the light-guiding units with the recessed portions on the insertion base, and the light-guiding units are prevented from light leakage.
