In the present utility model, the convex ring 111 makes the outer side of the connection section 11 form a concave-convex structure, so that it can be snap-fitted with the plastic body 3. The pouring cavity 112 and the snap ring 113 make the plastic body 3 inside the connection section 11 be stuck at the snap ring 113. The cooperation of the two makes the plastic body 3 and the connection section 11 firmly combined together, ensuring the anti-bending ability and waterproof performance of the connector. The present utility model can complete the synthesis of the plastic body 3 and the connection section 11 only by pouring once through the cooperation of internal snap-fitting and external snap-fitting, with few processes, short production time and high efficiency of the connector.
