Abstract: A coaxial connector includes a housing and a retainer attached to the housing. The housing includes a terminal receiving portion into which a terminal is insertable from behind. The terminal includes a crimp portion crimped to have a polygonal cross-sectional shape, and a flange portion located forward of the crimp portion when the terminal has been inserted in the terminal receiving portion, the flange portion protruding circumferentially outward beyond the crimp portion. The retainer includes a fitting portion fitted around the crimp portion of the terminal including at least one corner of the crimp portion in an attached state in which the terminal has been received in the terminal receiving portion in a normal position and the retainer has been attached in an engagement position, and an abutment portion in abutment with the flange portion of the terminal from behind in the attached state.

Abstract: Provided is a male connector capable of easily engaging with a female connector. A male connector 10 includes a hood portion 13 with a cylindrical shape that is fit into, from a projecting end 13A side, an engagement cylindrical portion 23 formed as an opening of a female connector 20, wherein the hood portion 13 is provided with the at least one guide projection portion 31 projecting forward beyond the projecting end 13A with an annular shape.

Abstract: A connector is provided with a housing 10, a grommet 40 arranged to cover an outer periphery of the housing 10, and a grommet cover 60 arranged to cover an outer periphery of the grommet 40. The grommet cover 60 includes a tip portion 74 on one end on an opening side. The housing 10 includes a restricting portion 14, 14E. The restricting portion 14, 14E includes a recess 15, 15E inside which the tip portion 74 of the grommet cover 60 is to be arranged. The recess 15, 15E of the restricting portion 14, 14E includes a restricting body 19 arranged to face an outer side of the tip portion 74 of the grommet cover 60.

Abstract: A female connector housing (8) is provided with a lever accommodating portion (8B), and a lever (6) is rotatably mounted on an outer surface (18) of a main body portion (8A) inside. The lever (6) is provided with a lock arm (24). An operating portion (24B) is provided on a tip part of the lock arm (24) and covered by a protecting portion (28). In the case of separating male and female connectors (M, F), the locking of a lock protrusion (25) and a locking projecting edge (26) is released by pinching a first pinching surface (27) formed on the operating portion (24B) of the lock arm (24) and a second pinching surface (29) of the protecting portion (28). Since the first pinching surface (27) and the second pinching surface (29) are arranged along a deflecting direction of the lock arm (24), a pinching operation is facilitated.

Abstract: A connector includes: (i) a lock arm that extends rearwardly in a cantilevered shape from a housing main body, and (ii) a detecting member arranged to be movable forward from an initial position to a detecting position. The detecting member includes (i) an elastic arm portion extending in a cantilever shape diagonally upward and forward; (ii) an abutting portion at an extended end portion of the elastic arm portion and restricting movement of the detecting member from the initial position to the detecting position; (iii) a pair of walls, one at the left and one at the right, raised from the top surface of the housing main body; (iv) a bridge portion connecting top ends of the walls; and (v) an excessive bending restriction portion restricting excessive bending of the lock arm upward by covering the top surface of the lock arm with the bridge portion.

Abstract: A detector (70) movable from an initial position to a detection position is mounted on a housing main body (11). The detector (70) includes a resilient arm (72) resiliently deformable in a height direction. The resilient arm (72) contacts a lock arm (12) from behind before the housing main body (11) is connected to a mating housing (50) to prevent a forward movement at an initial position. When the housing main body (11) is properly connected to the mating housing (50), the detector (70) reaches a detection position where the resilient arm (72) enters a deformation space (25) by being pushed forward from the initial position. At the initial position, the resilient arm (72) applies a pre-load to the lock arm (12) in the height direction.

Abstract: A protection wall (13) stands up from a rear end part of a housing main body (11) and restricts an operation of a disengaging portion (28) of a lock arm (12) by covering the disengaging portion (28). A detector (70) is made movable to a detection position by being pushed forward when the housing main body (11) is properly connected to a mating housing (50). Further, the detector (70) includes a rear portion (73) located behind the lock arm (12) and to be pushed when the detector (70) is moved to the detection position. A disengagement window (74) used to operate the disengaging portion (28) is formed on a position of the rear portion (73) behind the disengaging portion (28).

Abstract: A lock arm (12) is cantilevered back from a front end part of a housing main body (11). The lock arm (12) includes an accommodating recess (31) that is open toward a deformation space (25) therefor and toward the back. When the housing main body (11) is connected properly to a mating housing (50) and a detector (70) is pushed from a standby position to a detection position, a part of the detector (70) is inserted into the accommodating recess (31).
