Abstract: A lever-operative connector which can be downsized includes a frame and a lever rotatably coupled to the frame. The frame has a circumferential wall having one opening and the other opening at both ends. The frame has a notch formed in the circumferential wall and communicating with the one opening. When the lever is rotated toward the one opening side, a part of a lever side wall is exposed from an interior of the circumferential wall so as to compensate the notch of the circumferential wall, thereby forming, together with the frame, a hood having the housing-receiving width. When the lever is rotated toward the other opening side, the part of the lever side wall is received inside the circumferential wall so as to open the notch of the circumferential wall, thereby eliminating the housing-receiving width and the hood.

Abstract: A lever connector includes a first connector, a second connector and a lever. The lever includes a locking portion provided to be bendable inward and outward with respect to a rotation direction of the lever. The first connector is provided with a locked portion to be locked with the locking portion. The rotation of the lever causes the locking portion to be bent outward with respect to the rotation direction of the lever, and then causes the locking portion to be bent inward with respect to the rotation direction of the lever such that the locked portion is locked with the locking portion. The locking portion is provided with an abutment portion that abuts on an edge part of an attachment hole of a panel when the first connector and the second connector are attached to the attachment hole in the middle of the rotation of the lever.

Abstract: A lever-type connector includes a first connector, a second connector, and a lever that rotates to fit the first connector and the second connector together, the first connector and the second connector being mounted into a mounting hole of a panel when the first and second connectors are in a fitted state. The lever includes a flexible locking portion. The first connector includes a locked portion with which the locking portion is engaged in a manner such that the lever rotates to bend the locking portion when the first and second connectors are properly fitted together. The locking portion includes a regulating portion positioned to face an edge portion of the mounting hole of the panel when the first connector and the second connector properly fitted together are mounted in the mounting hole so as to prevent the engagement between the locking portion and the locked portion from being released.

Abstract: A lever-type connector (1) comprises: a first connector (11); a second connector (21); and a lever (31) configured to be turned to fit the connectors (11, 21) each other. The first connector (11) has a lock portion (14) designed to be flexurally deformed toward its inner surface side and inserted into the attachment hole (42) when the connectors are attached to the attachment hole (52). The lever (31) includes an arm portion (32) located on the inner surface side of the first connector (11) while the lever (31) is being turned. The arm portion (32) includes: a deformation blocking part (36) configured to block the flexural deformation when the deformation blocking part (36) is located on the inner surface side of the lock portion (14); and a deformation allowing part (37) configured to allow the flexural deformation.

Abstract: A lever connector includes a female connector, a male connector and a lever. The female connector includes a frame having a flange portion protruding toward a straight direction perpendicular to a direction in which the female connector and the male connector are to be fitted with each other. The flange portion includes a locking portion with flexibility. The lever includes a locked portion locked with the locking portion in a normal fitted state. The locking portion does not abut on a hole edge of an attachment hole formed on a panel in a state where the locked portion is locked with the locking portion, and abuts on the hole edge of the attachment hole in a state where the locked portion is not locked with the locking portion.

Abstract: This lever-type connector (1) having: a first connector (11); a second connector (21); and a lever (31) that fits the connectors (11, 21) together by being rotated.

Abstract: A connector device is provided in which a fitting force acts on a female connector and a male connector by operating a lever from a fitting start operation position to a fitting end operation position. The connector device includes a semi-fitting detection portion and a pressing portion. The semi-fitting detection portion is located at a non-projecting position below a peripheral surface of a frame of the female connector and is shifted to a projecting position to project from the peripheral surface of the frame by a pressing force. The pressing portion is provided in the male connector, presses and shifts the semi-fitting detection portion to the projecting position when located at a fitting halfway position before a fitting end position, and stops pressing the semi-fitting detection portion when located at the fitting end position so as to shift the semi-fitting detection portion to the non-projecting position.
