  • Patent number: 10079450
    Abstract: Provided is a connector including first and second connector members connected to each other. The first connector member is formed with a protrusion. The second connector member includes a lever member rotatably provided thereto. The lever member is formed with at least one claw-shaped part configured to lock the protrusion. When connecting the first and second connector members, the lever member is rotated so that the protrusion locked in the claw-shaped part of the lever member is drawn in a connecting direction, and the first and second connector members are moved in the connecting direction and brought into contact with each other. After the movement is restrained, the lever member is further rotated so that the lever member is fixed while being elastically deformed.

  • Patent number: 9985382
    Abstract: Provided is a connector in which first and second connector members are fitted with each other. The first connector member includes a first housing formed with a protrusion. The second connector member includes a second housing; hood member; elastic member; and locking mechanism. The hood member is to cover and to be mounted with the second housing. The elastic member is to be provided between the hood member and second housing. The locking mechanism is to lock the protrusion. The locking mechanism is operated so that the protrusion is drawn in a fitting direction. After the movement of the first and second connector members in the fitting direction is restrained, the locking mechanism is operated so that the hood member is moved while compressing the elastic member, which fix the locking mechanism with the elastic member being compressed.
