Claims

[Scope of utility model registration request]

Each housing has a pair of female and male housings in which connection terminals are housed, and when the housings are fitted together, the housed connection terminals fit together to establish an electrical connection, and the housings are fitted with a pair of male and female housings. In the locking structure of the connector, the locking means is provided with a locking means for maintaining the mating state, and the locking means has a proximal end fixed to one of the male and female housings, and a free end having a locking protrusion formed at the distal end. The lock claws are press-fitted between two side-by-side lock claws whose sides protrude in the insertion direction of the housing and can be opened and closed in a direction crossing the insertion direction, and the tip of the lock claws is pressed into place. A flat lock piece provided on either the male or female housing provides sliding guidance and locks the locking protrusion of the lock pawl when the fitting is completed, and the lock piece During the mating process, the tapered guide side wall surface gradually expands the space between each lock pawl, and when the housing is fully fitted, the pushing force is suddenly removed and each restored lock pawl generates an impact sound. and a bottom wall surface having a reduced diameter, into which the locking protrusion is fitted and locked.
