A cover-fitted connector includes a connector housing that houses a terminal connected to a terminal of an electric wire, and a cover that covers the electric wire pulled out from the connector housing. The connector housing includes a connector housing body, and a connecting portion connected to the connector housing body. The cover includes a cover body, a connected portion connected with the connecting portion at a time of mating the cover with the connector housing, and a cutout portion having an end portion positioned at a boundary between the connector housing body to cover the connecting portion and configured to expose the connector housing body outside the cover at the time of mating the cover with the connector housing.

Cover-fitted connector

A connector with a cover () includes a connector housing () and a cover () fitted in the connector housing. The connector housing has a regulating rib () provided projecting in a second direction perpendicular to a first direction where the fitted cover is pulled away from the connector housing. The cover has a regulating groove () that is formed into a shape corresponding to the regulating rib, and into which the regulating rib is inserted when the cover is fitted in the connector housing. The regulating rib is formed to become larger in width in the first direction from a base end toward a tip in the second direction. Release of the fitting of the cover in the connector housing is regulated by the regulating groove and the regulating rib inserted into the regulating groove in a state where the cover is fitted in the connector housing.

Connector cover regulating rib and groove

A connector comprises: a connector housing that has a lock arm that locks a mated corresponding housing in a corresponding housing mating chamber, an arm operation part that can displace the lock arm to a position that releases the lock by an operation, a wire extraction part that is positioned in the release operation direction of the arm operation part and guides wires that are guided to the outside, a cover attachment part provided on the wire extraction part; and a wire cover that has a housing attachment part that is inserted into the peripheral side of the wire extraction part of the connector housing and mated to the cover attachment part and an arm excessive displacement prevention part that restricts excessive displacement of the lock arm.
