The connector-equipped wire includes: a terminal-equipped wire that includes a coated wire and a terminal component provided at an end portion of the coated wire; and a connector housing that includes a main body component provided with a cavity, and a cover component mounted to the main body component. A leading end portion of the terminal component is accommodated in the cavity, a rear end portion of the terminal component protrudes outward of the cavity and is covered by the cover component or by the cover component and the main body component, and the cover component is mountable to the main body component through sliding movement in a direction that intersects the longitudinal direction of the cavity in a state in which the rear end portion of the terminal component protrudes outward of the cavity.

Connector-equipped wire and connector housing

A housingincludes a plurality of engaging portionsarranged at positions point-symmetrical in a back view on a peripheral edge part of a rear surface and protrusionsarranged to project rearward from the rear surface. A coverincludes engaged portionstoto be engaged with and held by the engaging portions, a space portionin which the protrusionsare located with the coverproperly assembled with the housing, and an interfering portion for interfering with the protrusionswhen the coveris in a posture opposite to the proper one with respect to the housing

Connector

A connector (female connector) is provided with an inner housingfrom which wires W are pulled out to outside and which is connected to a mating housing, and a vibration transmitting memberincluding a mating contact portion (inner peripheral surfaceA) capable of coming into contact with the mating housing. The vibration transmitting memberincludes a wire fixing portionto which the wires W are fixed, and is capable of transmitting vibration from the wire fixing portionto the mating housingfrom the mating contact portionA. The inner housingis allowed to relatively move with respect to the vibration transmitting member

A connector () is provided with an inner housing () to be fit to an inner periphery of a mating housing (M) and an outer housing () fittable to an outer periphery of the mating housing (M). The outer housing () is held on the inner housing () by first locks () before connection to the mating housing (M), is held connected to the mating housing (M) by a second lock () at the time of connection to the mating housing M, and is separated from the inner housing () and held connected to the mating housing (M) by releasing the first locks () at the time of separation from the mating housing (M).

Connector with inner and outer housings and a cover, with the cover and the inner housing being independently separable from the outer housing while the connector is connected to a mating connector

A lever-type connector () is provided with a connector housing () including a wire holding portion (). Wires W have end parts held in the wire holding portion () and extend from the connector housing (). A lever () is assembled with the connector housing () and is rotatable from a connection start position to a connection end position. A cover () covers the wires W extending from the connector housing () by being assembled with the connector housing (). The coverincludes positioning portions (A), and the lever () includes positioning receiving portions for positioning the cover () at a proper mounting position by contacting the positioning portions (A) when the lever () is at the connection end position.

Lever-type connector

A lever-type connectordisclosed by this specification includes a housing (), a lever (), a cover () and a lever lock portion () provided to extend backward from a rear end () of the housing () and hold the lever () at a rear position by locking an operating portion (). The cover () is composed of an upper cover () and a lower cover () to be assembled below the upper cover (). The upper cover () includes an upper locking portion () configured to cover an upper lock receiving portion () provided on the rear end () of the housing () from above and lock the upper lock receiving portion () from front and the lever lock portion () is arranged along an upper surface of the upper cover ().
