Abstract: A coupling confirming mechanism for an electric connector having a first and second connector housings, capable of confirming the proper coupling of the first and second connector housings and double-locking the first and second connector housings. The coupling confirming mechanism comprises: a locking arm having a locking projection formed on the first connector housing; a locking lever pivotally joined at its rear end to the first connector housing and provided at its front end with an insulating projection, and at its front end with locking fingers; locking projections formed on the second connector housing; a break contact formed of a pair of short-circuiting terminals disposed in a short-circuiting terminal chamber formed in the second connector housing. The locking fingers of the locking lever is able to engage the locking projections of the second connector housing and the insulating projection of the same is able to break the break contact only when the first and second connector housings are properly coupled. The first and second connector housings can be double-locked by the engagement of the locking projection of the locking arm and the second connector housing and by the engagement of the locking lever and the second connector housing only when the first and second connector housings are properly coupled.

Abstract: An apparatus for confirming the fitting of an electric connector in which a male connector housing is fitted in a hood of a female connector housing so as to connect together metal terminals received respectively in the terminal receiving chambers of the male and female connector housings. A lock lever, having a holder spring, is pivotally connected at one end to a first side portion of the hood. A locking plate, having a provisional locking groove and a complete locking groove, is formed on a second side portion of the hood. Both the provisional and complete locking grooves are engageable with the holder spring. A fitting confirmation projection is formed on a reverse surface of the lock lever, and interferes with the male connector housing when the fitting of the male connector housing is imperfect, thereby preventing the engagement between the holder spring and the complete locking groove. The apparatus also may be used when a hood of a female connector housing is fitted in an electronic unit case so as to provide an open window in the electronic unit case. In this embodiment, a manipulation press portion is formed on a second end of the lock lever. Additionally, a screen portion is formed on the press portion so as to close the window in the electronic unit case to prevent foreign matter from penetrating the electronic unit case.

Abstract: A perfect coupling confirming mechanism for an electric connector having a first connector housing and a second connector housing, employing two electrical contactors, among those accommodated in contactor chambers formed in the second connector housing, as check contactors for the confirmation of the perfect coupling of the first and second connector housings. The first connector housing is provided with a principal locking arm provided with a first and second locking projections. A locking slider and a short-circuiting member are provided movably in the second connector housing. When the first and second connector housings are coupled perfectly, the first locking projection and the second connector housing are engaged to lock the first and second connector housings to each other in a primary locked state. In this state, the locking slider is advanced so that the locking slider engages the second locking projection of the principal locking arm to lock the first and second connector housings in a secondary locked state and to disconnect the check contactors electrically by the short-circuiting member. Thus, the first and second connector housings are double-locked. When the first and second connector housings are coupled imperfectly, the locking slider is unable to engage the second locking projection of the principal locking arm and the check contactors remain connected electrically.

Abstract: A connector including a first connector accommodating a male terminal, a second connector accommodating a female terminal, and a movable aligner which supports a tip of the male terminal and is movable from a provisional position to a completed position according to the insertion and desertion of the second connector relative to the first connector. At the provisional position, a pushing projection pushes the arm toward the inner wall so that the arm deforms and the regulating projection is in the recess portion, and the movable aligner supports the tip of the first terminal so as to align with the second terminal. during a movement between the provisional position to the completed position, the pushing projection is engaged with the slit; and at the completed position, the first and the second terminals are connected. Thus the movable aligner precisely align the male terminal with the female terminal.

Abstract: A temporary locking jig inserting hole which enables a retainer operating jig to be inserted thereinto from the outside is provided on a side of an inner housing of a female connector from which electric wires are drawn out in such a manner as to extend along a direction in which female terminals are inserted into the inner housing. In addition, a temporary locking retainer side tapered portion is provided on a retainer in such a manner as to correspond in position to the temporary locking jig inserting hole. In association with the insertion of the retainer operating jig from the temporary locking jig inserting hole, the temporary locking retainer side tapered portion is brought into sliding contact with a jig side tapered portion of the retainer operating jig, so as to displace the retainer which is being in a proper locking position to a temporary locking position.
