[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention consists of a pair of opposing female housings that house electrical connectors;
In a connector that fits within the male housing body, the locking mechanism that secures the connection between both housings has been improved.

両者をロックするものが提案されている。
Conventionally, as a locking mechanism for this type of connector, as shown in FIG. An opening 5 is provided, and a locking arm 6 facing the opening 5 and having a locking hole 7 and a gripping portion 8 is provided, and the housing A,
It has been proposed that when H is fitted, the locking protrusion 2 fits into the locking hole 7 and locks the two.

In order to strengthen the locking force and prevent the lock from being easily released, the elastic strength of the locking arm 6 is increased, and the height h of the locking protrusion 2 is made as large as possible within the elastic limit of the arm 6.

なお、9は電気接続子(図示省略)に対する収容室で、
雌ハウジングBの後半部にも対応する収容室が設けられ

That is, when a thumb or the like is placed on the gripping portion 8, the locking arm 6 is pulled up, the engagement between the locking protrusion 2 and the locking hole 7 is released, and both housings A and B are pulled out from each other. , since the locking protrusion 2 retreats in the direction of the finger that pulls up the gripping part 8, the top of the locking protrusion 2 may injure the finger or apply too much force to the locking arm 6, causing plastic deformation. There were problems such as damage, or even breakage from the base.
