Lever connector

摘要

A lever connector includes a first connector housing, a second connector housing that includes a distal fitting portion intended for a distal end of the first connector housing to be fittedly connected thereto, and is adapted to be attached to a connector attaching plate in a state of inserting the second connector housing through a connector attaching hole of the connector attaching plate, a lever adapted to fit the first connector housing into the second connector housing by a pivoting operation, and a grommet for ensuring a waterproofing property of an inside of the first connector housing. The lever includes a lever body, a pivoting connection portion, and a lever locking piece. The grommet is fitted and mounted on the lever and includes a lever covering portion, and a tubular.

1. A lever connector, comprising:
a first connector housing; a second connector housing that includes a distal fitting portion intended for a distal end of the first connector housing to be fittedly connected thereto, and is adapted to be attached to a connector attaching plate in a state of inserting the second connector housing through a connector attaching hole of the connector attaching plate; a lever adapted to fit the first connector housing into the second connector housing by a pivoting operation; and a grommet for ensuring a waterproofing property of an inside of the first connector housing; wherein the lever includes: a lever body that is formed independently of the first connector housing and is adapted to press a rear end of the first connector housing, which is abutted on the second connector housing attached to the connector attaching plate, toward the second connector housing; a pivoting connection portion that pivotally connects one end of the lever body to the connector attaching plate, so that the lever body performs a lever behavior for pressing the rear end of the first connector housing toward the second connector housing; and a lever locking piece that is provided on the other end side of the lever body and is adapted to fix the other end side of the lever body to the connector attaching plate when fitting between the first connector housing and the second connector housing has been completed by the lever behavior of the lever body; wherein the grommet is fitted and mounted on the lever and includes: a lever covering portion that is coupled to the lever body by a lip having a groove adapted to be fitted on an outer peripheral edge of the lever body; and a tubular that is integrally formed with the lever covering portion and is adapted to receive a cable connected to the first connector housing; and wherein when fitting between the connector housings has been completed by the lever behavior of the lever, the lip is tightly contacted with a peripheral edge of the connector attaching hole to ensuring the waterproofing property of the inside of the first connector housing.
