Abstract
A connector apparatus comprises a connector, an annular member, and a cover member covering a rear surface of the connector. An engaging portion with a rear end surface is provided in the annular member. A step portion with a front end surface is provided in a rear portion of the connector. The cover member has a hook portion in the front end thereof. When the cover member covers the rear portion of the connector, the hook portion engages with the step portion. Thereafter, when the annular member is fixed to the connector, the rear end surface of the engaging portion and the front end surface of the step portion clamp the hook portion to prevent the hook portion from coming off.
