ABSTRACT:
A lever connector is provided where fitting of a connector holder is reliably performed by rotation of a lever, so that workability is excellent. In a connector holder2, a provisionally-retaining claw17is provided to be elastically held by a first retaining portion14at a predetermined rotating position in order to restrict rotation of the lever5. In a receptacle connector3, a pressing projection23is provided to move the provisionally-retaining claw17to a retracted position where the provisionally-retaining claw17is not held by the lever5in a state that the connector holder2is at a standby position, so that restriction of rotation of the lever5is cancelled. On the other hand, an abutting surface of the first retaining position14of the lever5is of a mountain-like shape including a restricting surface19and a guiding surface20.
