  • Patent number: 10483692
    Abstract: A lever-type connector includes a housing (10) having support shafts (27) projecting therefrom, and a lever (30) including bearings (33) to be supported on the housing (10) by receiving the support shafts (27), an operating portion (31) disposed to receive an applied force during a connecting operation, and cam grooves (36) to be engaged with cam followers (98) of a mating housing (90) and configured to assist connection of the housing (10) and the mating housing (90) by rotation about the bearings (33). Axial centers of the cam followers (98) engaged with the cam grooves (36) are displaced toward the operating portion (31) with respect to axial centers of the bearing portions (33) in a direction perpendicular to a connecting direction of the housing (10) and the mating housing (90).

  • Patent number: 10418744
    Abstract: It is aimed to prevent separation of a cover (30) from a housing (10). The housing (10) includes lock receiving portions (21) on an outer side of a wire extending surface (13). The cover (30) is in the form of a cap for covering wires (80) extending from the wire extending surface (13) and includes a wire pull-out opening (35) configured such that the wires (80) are pulled out therethrough, an opening end (34) configured to contact the housing (10) along a front-rear direction, and locks (41) configured to restrict separation from the housing (10) by locking the lock receiving portions (21). The cover (30) includes a rib (37) serving as a forward movement restricting portion. The housing (10) includes opening restricting portions (23) arranged to contact and face a front end of the rib (37) and to face an outer surface of the cover (30).
