ABSTRACT:
As a charger-side connector is pushed into a car body-side connector, push-out slanting surfaces of a spring plate slide respectively along push-out slanting surfaces of a deep hole halfway, and therefore a restoring force tends to push the charger-side connector back. Namely, if the hold is released halfway, the two connectors are moved away from each other, so that the electrical connection is broken. On the other hand, when the connector is pushed until each leading portion of the spring plate passes past a peak defined by a portion of connection between a drawing slanting surface the push-out slanting surface of the deep hole, the charger-side connector is drawn. Namely, although the connector is pushed out halfway, it is drawn when it passes past this halfway point, so that the two connectors are automatically connected together electrically if the hold is released.
