ABSTRACT:
To provide a lever-type connector which is low in cost, and facilitates an operation of confirming an incompletely-fitted condition of the connector. Fixed shafts are formed on a male connector to be fitted in a female connector, and a retaining lever is mounted on the female connector for pivotal movement about pivot shafts formed respectively on opposite sides thereof, and spring engagement protections are formed respectively on the opposite sides of the female connector. Retaining grooves each having a play region are formed in a front portion of the retaining lever, and leaf springs are provided at a rear side of the retaining lever. When the retaining lever is pivotally moved, with the fixed shafts received respectively in the retaining grooves, the leaf springs respectively engage the spring engagement projections to be resiliently deformed, so that the fixed shafts are moved toward the play regions, respectively, and as a result the retaining lever is inclined in a conspicuous manner.
