Provided is a connector connection structure which is configured to directly connect connectors provided to casings of two devices, respectively, to each other, and which can keep sealing property of the connector connection portion. A second terminal is arranged movable with respect to a second casing, thus displacement of a first casing and the second casing with respect to each other can be absorbed by allowing the second terminal to move, thereby allowing the connectors provided respectively to the casings of the two devices to be directly connected to each other. At this time, a connector-side opening of a second housing is closed using a first housing of a first connector as a mating connector, thereby keeping sealing property of the connector connection portion while allowing the connectors provided respectively to the casings of the two devices to be directly connected to each other.

Connector connection structure

In a lever type connectorin which a female connector housingis provided with a fitting operation leverfor pulling a fitting pinprojected on a male connector housingin a side of an end of a pin guide groovewith rotating operation of the fitting operation lever, the side of the end of the pin guide grooveis provided with a spring partwhich makes contact with the fitting pinof the inside of the pin guide groovein an elastic deformation state and regulates relative movement of the fitting operation leverand the fitting pinwhen fitting between the connector housings,is completed.
