ABSTRACT:
A lever fitting type connector includes a male connector having a temporary-retaining convex portion, a lever having a temporary-retaining portion, and a female connector having a fitting space. An inner wall forming the fitting space has a guiding groove portion and a receiving groove portion and has a release portion. When the fulcrum projection is located in the guide groove portion at the initial process of the fitting operation, a clearance represented by X is formed between the fulcrum projection and an edge wall of the guide groove portion, and a clearance represented by Y is formed between the temporary-retaining portion and the temporary-retaining convex portion, and the formula, (X×b<Y×a), is established where a represents the distance between an axis of rotation movement of the lever and the fulcrum projection, and b represents the distance between the axis of rotation movement of the lever and the temporary-retaining portion.
