  • Publication number: 20240426332
    Abstract: A connector component incudes an engagement hole adapted to engage with an elastic buckle of another connector component, and a pair of radial protrusions formed on an inner surface of the engagement hole. The connector component is rotatable around the elastic buckle inserted into the engagement hole between an assembly position and a disassembly position. The connector component is adapted such that, with the connector component is in the assembly position, the elastic buckle is not radially pressed by the radial protrusion and a radial interference amount between the elastic buckle and the engagement hole is equal to a predetermined interference amount. With the connector component in the disassembly position, the elastic buckle is radially pressed by the radial protrusion, and the radial interference amount between the elastic buckle and the engagement hole is less than the predetermined interference amount reducing an unlocking force required to unlock the elastic buckle.
