摘要:
A connector housing is provided to prevent a locking portion from being excessively deformed when the insufficient insertion of a terminal fitting is detected. Cavities 3 are provided in two stages in the connector housing, and locking portions 11 are arranged back to back to share deformation permitting spaces 16. The upper and lower locking portions 11 are arranged such that the longitudinal axes thereof are transversely offset to each other. Detecting portions 23 to be inserted into the deformation permitting spaces 16 project from a retainer 20. At the left and right ends of an inserting end surface 24 of each detecting portion 23, excessive deformation preventing portions 25 are formed symmetrically with respect to vertical direction. The excessive deformation preventing portions 25 can individually come into contact with leading ends 13 of the upper and lower locking portions 11. If a female terminal fitting 8 is insufficiently inserted as in the upper stage of FIG. 7, the retainer 20 may further deform the locking portion 11 after coming into contact therewith, while being inserted. However, the excessive elastic deformation of the locking portion 11 is restricted by the leading end 13 thereof being brought into contact with the excessive deformation preventing portion 25 at the lower side.

When two connector housings are half fitted together, a fitting detecting connector causes one of the connector housings to be pushed in a direction of separation by means of springs which are provided within a female connector housing 5, a spring holder 15 being inserted into this female connector housing 5 so that it can move in an anterior-posterior direction. This spring holder 15 houses coiled springs 16 and, when the two connector housings are being fitted together, a locking arm 11 rises over a stopping protrusion 2. As a result of this rising up the spring holder 15 is engaged, its movement in a posterior direction is regulated, and the coiled springs 16 are compressed. When the connector housings are completely fitted together the locking arm 11 again moves, releasing the engagement of the spring holder 15, and the spring holder 15 is pushed in a posterior direction by the spring force. In this way the separating force does not act when the connector housings are fully engaged.

A connector includes lever pivotally mounted on a lateral wall of a male connector housing. When a female connector housing is inserted into the male connector housing, a cam follower projection formed on a cover is engaged with a cam groove formed on the lever. The lever is formed of four split pieces: a base plate, a second split piece, a third split piece, and an operating strip. For connecting or disconnecting the connectors, the lever can be expanded to maximize leverage. For storage, the lever can be contracted to minimize the amount of space occupied.
摘要:
A terminal fitting (T) has a rectangular tube (10). A resilient locking piece (25) is accommodated in a rectangular tube portion (10) and a locking hole (19) in the tube (10) exposes the resilient locking piece (25). A side plate (13R) of the rectangular tube (10) is provided with an intrusion restricting portion (21) near the resilient contact piece (25) and in an opening area of the locking hole (19). Thus, the intrusion of an external matter through the locking hole (19) can be restricted by the intrusion restricting portion (21), thereby preventing the interference of the external matter with the resilient contact piece (25).

A stabilizer (30) of a terminal fitting (20) is divided into a front stabilizer (31A) and a rear stabilizer (31B) and defining a small clearance therebetween. Thus, the smaller holes (32A, 32B) are formed by the divided stabilizer (30), and external matter is less likely to intrude.

A front wall (50) is movable between a full locking position and a partial locking position on the front of a female housing (10). When the front wall (50) is at the full locking position, mating tabs (70) can enter main portions (41) of the female terminal fittings (40) through tab insertion holes (51) of the front wall (50) for contacting resilient contacts (45) and an unlocking jig can be inserted into a mold-removal hole (14) of the female housing (10) through a jig insertion hole (52) of the front wall (50) to disengage a lock (12). When the front wall (50) is at the partial locking position, detection probes (60) can be inserted into the jig insertion holes (52) of the front wall (50) for contacting detecting plates (46) offset from resilient contacts (45) in main portions of the female terminal fittings (40).

摘要:
A terminal fitting (T) has a rectangular tube (10) with a bottom plate (12). A resilient contact (25) extends back into the tube (10) from an end of the bottom plate (12). A base portion (33) is formed at the front end of the bottom plate (12) and is made narrower than the bottom plate (12) by cutting away the left and right edges. A bulge (34) bulges out from a lateral edge of the base portion (33) and narrows an area of an opening between the base portion (33) and the right side plate (13R). Thus, external matter is less likely to intrude into the rectangular tube (10) through the opening even if the resilient contact (25) is narrow. Additionally, the base portion (33) is reinforced by the bulge (34). Thus, the base portion (33) is less likely to be deformed by external matter.
