Abstract: A connector mating structure includes a male connector and a female connector mated with each other. The female connector includes a mating securing member. In a state where the male connector and the female connector of the connector mating structure are in a mating state and the mating securing member is positioned in a mating securing position, a forward end of a female locking section is positioned between an upper locking protrusion and a protrusion of an upper locking section. In this manner, assembling instability between a male housing, a female housing and the mating securing member in a forward-rearward direction is suppressed. Furthermore, a short circuit spring is in elastic contact with a short circuit release section and thus presses the female housing upward. In this manner, assembling instability between the male housing, the female housing and the mating securing member in an upward-downward direction is suppressed.

Abstract: A lever-type connector includes a mating housing having a cam boss, a housing fitted into and detached from the mating housing, a lever rotatably supported by the housing via a lever boss and rotating an operation unit to fit the both housings and a cable cover mounted to the rear of the housing and protecting a plurality of the cables pulled out from the rear of the housing. The lever has a temporary locking lock unit. The housing includes a temporary locking unit that temporarily locks the temporary locking lock unit, and a storage unit that stores the temporary locking lock unit in which the temporarily locked state with the temporary locking unit is released. The mating housing has a release unit that releases the temporarily locked state between the temporary locking lock unit and the temporary locking unit.

Abstract: A lever-type connector includes a first housing having a cam boss and a second housing fitted and detached from the first housing. A lever is rotatably supported to the second housing via lever bosses, and both housings and are fitted by rotating an operating portion. A cable cover is attached to a rear portion of the second housing to protect a plurality of cables drawn from the rear portion of the second housing. The second housing has an assembling portion for assembling the cable cover, and boss holes for rotatably supporting the lever bosses.

Abstract: A connector with cable cover includes a housing including a terminal accommodation chamber configured to accommodate a terminal connected to a cable and a rear surface configured to draw out the cable from the housing; and a cable cover formed in a tubular shape and attached to a side of the rear surface. A water drain passage is formed between a rear side on a side surface of the housing and a front side on an inner surface of the cable cover in a state where the cable cover is attached to the housing.

Abstract: A cable cover for attached to a side of a rear surface of a housing of a connector and for covering a cable pulled out from the rear surface of the housing includes: a main body cover mounted on the side of the rear surface of the housing; a lid cover that is combined with the main body cover into a tubular shape and that covers the cable; and a hinge which couples the main body cover and the lid cover and in which a central portion is formed thinner than a root portion of the main body cover and a root portion of the lid cover.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a regenerated product includes a selection step for selecting a recovered regeneration object based on a first evaluation standard indicating a state of a surface of the regeneration object, a rust-removing step for performing a rust-removing treatment to the regeneration object selected by the selection step, and a judgement step for judging whether to terminate the rust-removing treatment in the rust-removing step based on a second evaluation standard indicating the state of the surface of the regeneration object.

Abstract: In a connector with a wire cover, one of attachment portions provided in a main body cover is extended beyond a maximum diameter portion of a cover mounting portion in a direction perpendicular to an attachment direction in which the attachment portion is mounted on the cover mounting portion. The one of the attachment portions includes a provisional engagement portion provisionally engaged on the cover mounting portion, and configured to prevent the attachment portion from being detached from the cover mounting portion. The main body cover includes a rotation restricting portion configured to come in contact with a connector housing to prevent a rotation of the main body cover when a rotational force is applied to the main body cover in a circumferential direction of the cover mounting portion in a state where the provisional engagement portion is provisionally engaged with the cover mounting portion.

Abstract: Either of first and second corrugated tubes having different groove (or ridge) pitches can be mounted on a connector 10. In this case, the distance between a first retaining projection 32 and a second retaining projection 34 is a common multiple of these pitches, and therefore either of the two different corrugated tubes can be properly retained on both of the first and second retaining projections 32 and 34. Furthermore, either of the first and second corrugated tubes 50 and 52 of different diameters can be properly fixed to a tube insertion portion 20 by a binding band passed through binding band passage holes 30.

Abstract: This invention provides with a connector housing in which a retaining arm for fixing a metal terminal to be inserted into a receiving chamber is formed within the receiving chamber, and extends in a direction of insertion of the metal terminal, and the retaining arm has a convex retaining portion to be engaged with a predetermined retaining hole formed in the metal terminal, wherein the retaining portion has a first slanting surface formed at a central portion of the retaining portion in a direction perpendicular to the direction of insertion of the metal terminal, and a pair of second slanting surfaces formed respectively at opposite side portions to the central portion, the second slanting surfaces being gentler in inclination angle than the first slanting surface; and at an arbitrary position in the direction of extending of the retaining arm in a range in which the first slanting surface is disposed above a predetermined height, the second slanting surfaces are disposed lower than the first slanting surfa

Abstract: A housing 12 is connectable to a mating connector, and has inwardly-projecting housing bosses 41a and 41b. A lever 2 includes engagement portions 21a and 21b engageable respectively with the housing bosses 41a and 41b, and a lever boss 21e for retaining engagement with a retaining portion formed on the mating connector. Guide portions 21c and b 21d for guiding the insertion of the lever 2 into the housing 12 are formed at the lever 2, and a relief portion 41c for the passage of the lever boss 21e therethrough during the insertion is formed at the inside of the housing 12. At the time of starting the insertion of the lever 2 into the housing 12, the distance between each guide portion 21c, 21d and the corresponding housing boss 41a, 41b is smaller than the distance between the lever boss 21e and the relief portion 41c.

Abstract: A lever fitting-type connector has a lock arm for retaining a lever, the lock arm being provided at a connector housing. The lever fitting-type connector includes, in addition to a first retaining cancellation structure for canceling a retained condition of the lever by the finger, a second retaining cancellation structure for canceling the retained condition by inserting a retaining cancellation jig in a direction intersecting a direction of pressing of the lock arm and then by operating the jig. The second retaining cancellation structure includes a jig guide serving as a lever fulcrum for the retaining cancellation jig.
