ABSTRACT:
A female housing (10) has a tubular fit-in part (11) and a male housing (30) has a hood (31) that can enter the tubular fit-in part (11) to allow both housings (10, 30) to reach a proper connection. A lever (50) is mounted rotatably on the female housing (10) and engages a cam pin (33) on the female housing (30) to move the housings together. A locking part (60) is provided on the lever (50) and a locking projection (36) is provided on the hood (31). The locking part (60) locks to the locking projection (36) through a window (16) formed on the tubular fit-in part (11) when the lever (50) is rotated to a predetermined normal position. Thus, proper connection of the male housing (30) with the female housing (10) is ensured by the locking of the lever (50).
