And the female connector housing 2 has a large insertion resistance, especially in an electrical connector in which several tens or more connection terminals are inserted into both connector housings. When the two connector housings are mated, the mating resistance is large due to the combination of the contact pressure resistances when the two are connected. When the mating resistance is too large, the mating of the two connector housings is completed. As a result, the two connector housings are used in an incompletely fitted (half-fitted) state, and there is a problem that a connection failure or an operation failure of an electric device due to the connection failure occurs.

A male connector housing half-inserted into the female connector housing is inserted into the female connector housing. By providing a tension spring that can be retracted into the housing, by the synergistic effect of the tension force by the tension spring and the fitting input by human power,
It is an object of the present invention to provide an electrical connector that can reliably fit a male connector housing and a female connector housing.

Is fitted in a female connector housing, and an elastic piece 17 formed by a slit 16 cut out in the insertion direction of the male connector housing 11 is formed at the center of the upper surface of the female connector housing 15. Further, the elastic piece 17 has a projection 18 projecting inwardly of the female connector housing 15. Reference numeral 19 denotes a pair of left and right guide grooves (only one side is shown in the cross-sectional view in this embodiment) provided on the upper side of the female connector housing 15. Is provided with a slide plate 20 slidable in the direction of insertion. In addition, the above-mentioned projection 18 is engaged with a substantially central portion of the slide plate 20,
A locking hole 21 for maintaining the slide plate 20 in the pulled-out state is provided. Reference numeral 22 denotes a coil spring that is biased in a direction in which the slide plate 20 is pulled in, that is, a direction in which the male connector housing 11 is fitted.

タハウジングの抜け止めがなされる。Therefore, the male connector housing 11 is inserted into the female connector housing 15 in that state.
At the time of insertion, the locking claw 14 provided on the lock arm 13 is pressed down by the slide plate 20, whereby the lock arm 13 is also pressed down, and the locking claw 14 is pressed down to the lower surface position of the slide plate 20. The male connector housing 11 can be inserted into the female connector housing 15. When the male connector housing 11 starts to be inserted into the female connector housing 15 and the locking claws 14 are positioned in the locking holes 21 of the slide plate 20, as shown in FIG.
The protrusion 18 is pushed up by the sliding plate 2 to release the locking force between the protrusion 18 and the locking hole 21.
Numeral 0 denotes the elastic restoring force of the col spring, which is retracted. At this time, a locking claw integral with the male connector housing 11 is fitted and locked in the locking hole 21 of the slide plate 20. The male connector housing 11 is retracted into the female connector housing 15 under the tensile force of the coil spring 19 (see FIG. 5). Then, the tip of the slide plate 20 and the projection 18 are locked, so that the male connector housing is prevented from coming off.

Even if the resultant force is insufficient, the synergistic action with the pull-in force of the col spring 22 makes it possible to securely fit the two connector housings. Reliability can be improved.
