Patent number: 6773296Abstract: A connector includes, a wire holder having an arcuate outer-surface-side half member to which an outer surface of a bent part of a wire is fitted; an inner-surface-side half member to which an inner surface of the bent part of the wire is fitted; and an unification holder for holding both half members in a united condition. When the outer-surface-side half member and the inner-surface-side half member are held in a state in which the member are united with each other in such a way as to sandwich the wire, the wire is arcuately bent by fitting between both the half members. Thus, the wire can be held in a state in which the wire is bent with a predetermined curvature.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2002Date of Patent: August 10, 2004Assignees: Autonetworks Technologies, Ltd., Sumitomo Wiring Systems, Ltd., Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Souji Kihira, Sho Miyazaki

Patent number: 6319050Abstract: To provide a connector in which detection of a locked state can be made with a simple structure. When a lever 30 has been rotated to a normal position, a lock arm 35 provided on the lever 30 is engaged with a lock part 25 provided on a male housing 20, whereby a female housing 10 and the male housing 20 are held undetachably. At the same time, a detecting body 50 assembled to the lock arm 35 will be released from the locked condition where a locking claw 56 of the detecting body is abutted against an engaging face 40 of an engaging portion 38 of the lock arm 35 thereby to restrict a pushing movement. Thus, the detecting body 50 will be allowed to move to be pushed in the same direction of the rotation direction of the lever 30.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2000Date of Patent: November 20, 2001Assignees: Autonetworks Technologies, Ltd., Sumitomo Wiring Sysems, Ltd., Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Sho Miyazaki, Souji Kihira
