Abstract
A connector includes a retainer that can be provisionally retained by a connector positioning device. Each retainer is integrally molded on a connector housing through hinge pieces, and can be attached to the connector housing by fitting a guide slot of each of the retaining pieces on a guide projection. Therefore, the retainer can be attached by a pusher that pushes the retainer in a direction perpendicular to the connector housing. At this time, for attaching the retainer to a provisionally-retained position, there is provided a guide for holding the retainer in such a posture that the retainer can be attached in the provisionally-retained position.
