Abstract

L'invention porte sur une structure de fixation d'une enveloppe de fil électrique (50) qui comprend un levier (20) et un bras de verrouillage (45) en prise avec une partie de verrouillage (55a). Le levier est installé rotatif au niveau d'un boîtier de connecteur (10A), et solidarise le boîtier de connecteur à un boîtier de connecteur homologue par une opération de rotation. Le levier est maintenu à une position de verrouillage temporaire avant la solidarisation au boîtier de connecteur homologue.
