LEVER-TYPE CONNECTOR

A lever-type connector 10, which is matable with an opposite connector 60, comprises: a housing 20; a lever 40 attached to the housing 20 so as to be pivotable between a mating start position and a mating completed position; and a detection member 50 that is mounted to the housing 20 so as to be movable between a stand-by position and a detection position, and of which movement from the stand-by position to the detection position is permitted when the lever 40 is in the mating completed position. The housing 20 comprises: a first lock portion 27 that locks on the detection member 50 when the lever 40 is in the mating start position, thereby regulating movement of the detection member 50 from the stand-by position to the detection position; and a lock arm 23 that locks on the lever 40 when the lever 40 is in the mating completed position. The lock arm 23 comprises a second lock portion 23D that locks on the detection member 50 to regulate movement of the detection member 50 from the stand-by position to the detection position. The second lock portion 23D is disposed to be able to lock on the detection member 50 as the lock arm 23 slidably contacts the lever 40 and deforms by flexing in the process in which the lever 40 pivots from the mating start position toward the mating completed position. The first lock portion 27 is disposed to be able to lock on the detection member 50 until the second lock portion 23D can lock on the detection member 50 in the process in which the lever 40 pivots from the mating start position toward the mating completed position. L'invention concerne un connecteur de type levier 10, qui peut être couplé à un connecteur opposé 60, comprenant : un boîtier 20 ; un levier 40 fixé au boîtier 20 de façon à pouvoir pivoter entre une position de départ d'accouplement et une position achevée d'accouplement ; et un élément de détection 50 qui est monté sur le boîtier 20 de façon à être mobile entre une position d'attente et une position de détection, et dont le mouvement de la position d'attente à la position de détection est permis lorsque le levier 40 est dans la position achevée d'accouplement. Le boîtier 20 comprend : une première partie de verrouillage 27 qui se verrouille sur l'élément de détection 50 lorsque le levier 40 est dans la position de début d'accouplement, régulant ainsi le mouvement de l'élément de détection 50 de la position d'attente à la position de détection ; et un bras de verrouillage 23 qui se verrouille sur le levie
