PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a connector capable of preventing the return of a locking member to a standby position, in the case that a pipe is pulled out after shifting the locking member in a connection position.SOLUTION: When a locking member 16 in a connecting position is moved upward with respect to the housing 14 of a connector 10, made to pass a standby position, and located in a used position, a protrusion 87 of the locking member 16 is engaged with a protrusion 89 of the housing 14, and the locking member 16 is stopped at the used position and held in the used position. In the used position, a position of the contacting part 84 of an elastic piece 80 is set at a position opposite to a contacting position at a standby position with respect to the axial line 12C of a pipe 12 to be inserted. This enables the locking member 16 not to move toward the connecting position direction even if the pipe 12 is re-inserted for releasing the locked state of the locking member 16. |
