Abstract

A shield connector includes an outer housing accommodating a shield shell in a shell insertion direction. A stepped part protrudes from an inner wall of the outer housing to support the shield shell. A cover plate portion of the shield shell includes a bendable side portion extending along the shell insertion direction. A tip imaginary line of an end face of the stepped part is curved so that a position of the end face corresponding to the joining portion is located on a far side from an electric wire pullout opening in the shell insertion direction than a position of the end face corresponding to the bendable side portion, to thereby urge the cover plate portion in a bending direction when an inner housing with the shield shell is inserted into the outer housing.
