ABSTRACT:
An interference prevention portion (20) is disposed rearward from a retainer (40) and projected from an outer surface of a housing (10). The interference prevention portion (20) is capable of preventing another member from interfering with the retainer (40) when the retainer (40) is at a temporary locking position. Therefore, the interference prevention portion (20) prevents the other member from pressing the retainer (40) into the main locking position. The interference prevention portion (20) is disposed rearward from the retainer (40) at the rear end of the housing (10). Therefore the interference prevention portion (20) does not interfere with an operation for fitting the housing (10) in a mating housing.
