ABSTRACT:
A connector lock structure includes a female connector housing (10) having a connector fitting chamber (11), a male connector housing (4) having an engagement projection (9), and a slide member (3) mounted on the female connector housing for sliding movement in a direction perpendicular to a connector fitting direction. An elastic lock arm (13) is formed on the female connector housing (10), and a flexure reception portion (17) for receiving the lock arm is provided at the slide member (3). The engagement projection (9) raises the lock arm (13) into the flexure reception portion, and an inner side surface of the flexure reception portion (17) abuts against a side surface of the lock arm. That portion of a bottom surface (19) of the slide member, disposed adjacent to the flexure reception portion (17), abuts against that surface of the lock arm (13) facing in a direction of flexing of the lock arm. A slide protuberance (8) is formed on the male connector housing (4), and a guide groove (23) is formed in the female connector housing (10), and a provisionally-retaining arm (24) is formed on the slide member (3). The provisionally-retaining arm is engaged in the guide groove (23), and is pressed by the slide protuberance (8), thereby canceling a provisional retainment.
