Pivotal lever type connector for fitting male and female connectors, has arms sliding on inclined surfaces in directions to decrease distance between them, so that lever is pivotally moved, for canceling provisionally fitted condition

摘要

The connector has a female connector housing (11) fitted into a preset position with respect to a male connector housing (70), so that the housings (70, 11) are provisionally fitted together. Elastic retaining arms (32) are guided onto respective inclining surfaces (21) of the housing (11), after abutting against respective inclining surfaces (76) of the housing (70). The retaining arms slide on the surfaces (21) in respective directions to decrease distance between the surfaces (21), so that a pivotal lever (13) is pivotally moved, for canceling provisionally fitted condition.
