1. A connector comprising:
- a terminal having a terminal main body, an axial positioning part provided on an outer periphery of the terminal main body as a recessed part and a circumferential positioning part provided in the terminal main body and having two parallel abutting surfaces;
a housing having a terminal accommodating hole that accommodates the terminal and has an axial engaging part, the axial engaging part extending in the accommodating hole, and a slide hole vertically connected to the accommodating hole; and
a slider fitted to the slide hole so as to freely slide and having a circumferential engaging part, andwherein the circumferential engaging part protrudes in the accommodating hole and has a regulating surface, and the circumferential engaging part abuts on one of the abutting surfaces so that the abutting surfaces are parallel to the regulating surface when the slider slides in the slide hole.

Abstract
A connector is provided that can easily insert a connecting terminal into a terminal accommodating hole of a housing and assuredly connect the connecting terminal to a connecting terminal of a mate side.
Under a state that a connecting terminal 2 is held in a terminal accommodating hole 30 of a housing 3, when a slider 33 is slid to the terminal accommodating hole 30 side, a circumferential engaging part 35 abuts on an abutting surface 22a to rotate the connecting terminal 2 in the circumferential direction. Thus, the abutting surface 22a is held so as to be parallel to a slide direction of the slider 33.
