Locking mechanism for electrical connector, e.g. in motor vehicle

摘要

The mechanism has a bending piece (18) on each side of a flexible arm (15). A pair of interlock protrusions (19) is provided on the outer surfaces of the bending pieces. A pair of guide surfaces (28) is formed in an interlock opening (24). When the bending pieces are bent, the mutual interlock between the interlock protrusions and interlock sections (27) is prevented.
