Abstract
It is aimed to provide a connector capable of suppressing opening deformation of an operating member and avoiding enlargement. A U-shaped operating member () is arranged to straddle a housing () and is linearly movable from an initial position to a connection position while arms () slide on the housing () and proceeds with a connecting operation of the housing () and a mating housing () by cam engagement of the arms () with the mating housing () during a movement. The housing () includes support shafts () and the arms () include linearly extending long grooves () into which the support shafts () are inserted to be slidable in contact therewith. The support shaft () includes jaws () and the long groove () includes an engaging edge () configured to contact the jaws () in an opening direction of the arm ().
