发明名称 Connector
摘要 When a female connector body is inserted into a hood portion in a temporary lock state of a moving plate, plate lifting locks are deflected in a falling-over direction which is different from an outside direction of a male connector housing by lock portions and the plate lifting locks and the lock portions are engaged with each other after the plate lifting locks are deflected in the falling-over direction.

主权项 1. A connector comprising: a male connector comprising a male connector body and a moving plate; and a female connector comprising a female connector body and a lever; wherein the male connector body comprises a male connector housing made of resin with insulating properties, and a plurality of male terminals are made of metal with electric conductivity; wherein the moving plate comprises a plate body made of resin with insulating properties; wherein the female connector body comprises a female connector housing made of resin with insulating properties, and a plurality of female terminals are made of metal with electric conductivity; wherein the male connector housing comprises a hood portion and a male terminal reception portion, the hood portion receives the female connector movably in a fitting or releasing direction of the male connector and the female connector, and the male terminal reception portion is disposed in a deep position of an internal space of the hood portion; wherein each of the male terminals comprises a male type electric contact portion and an electric wire connection portion, the male type electric contact portion protrudes from the male terminal reception portion toward the internal space, and the electric wire connection portion is received in the male terminal reception portion continuously to the male type electric contact portion; wherein the plate body comprises a pair of locked portions and a pair of plate lifting locks, the pair of locked portions are disposed in opposite side portions of the plate body in a longitudinal direction of the male connector perpendicular to the fitting or releasing direction, and the pair of plate lifting locks are disposed in opposite side portions of the plate body in a lateral direction of the male connector perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the male connector; wherein the female connector housing comprises a pair of arm action portions and a pair of lock portions, the pair of arm action portions are disposed in opposite side portions of the female connector housing in the longitudinal direction of the male connector, and the pair of lock portions are disposed in opposite side portions of the female connector housing in the lateral direction of the male connector; wherein the hood portion comprises a pair of arm-like lock portions and a pair of lock deflection regulating portions, the pair of arm-like lock portions are disposed in opposite side portions of the hood portion in the longitudinal direction of the male connector, and the pair of lock deflection regulating portions are disposed in opposite side portions of the hood portion in the lateral direction of the male connector; wherein a fitting between the male connector and the female connector is performed as: the moving plate is inserted into the hood portion and the locked portions are locked on the arm-like lock portions so that the moving plate is brought into a temporary lock state and the male type electric contact portions are positioned and protected by the plate body in the temporary lock state; when the female connector body is inserted into the hood portion in the temporary lock state of the moving plate, the plate lifting locks are configured to be deflected in a falling-over direction which is different from an outside direction of the male connector housing by the lock portions and the plate lifting locks and the lock portions are engaged with each other after the plate lifting locks are deflected in the falling-over direction; and the lever is operated to apply pressure to the plate body by the female connector body while making the female connector body close to the male connector body, and the temporary lock state of the moving plate is released by the arm action portions; and wherein a release between the male connector and the female connector is performed as: when the lever is operated to keep the female connector body away from the male connector body, deflection of the plate lifting rocks toward in the outside direction is regulated by the lock deflection regulating portions, and the engagement between the plate lifting locks and the lock portions is maintained due to the regulation, while the moving plate is moved to be lifted up together with the female connector body due to the maintained engagement; and when the engagement between the plate lifting locks and the lock portions is released after the moving plate is recovered to the temporary lock state by the arm action portions and after the plate lifting locks are moved to positions where the plate lifting locks are not regulated by the lock deflection regulating portions, the plate lifting locks are deflected in the outside direction by the lock portions so that the engagement between the plate lifting locks and the lock portions is released.
