Abstract
A connector includes a connector housing, a sliding member supported on the connector housing, and a pull member coupled to the sliding member. A protrusion is formed on the pull member so as to protrude in a thickness direction thereof and extend in a lateral direction orthogonal to a longitudinal direction along the direction of removal. The sliding member includes a pair of arm portions guided by the connector housing and a coupling portion coupling the pair of arm portions and facing a side surface of the protrusion that is a surface on the operating portion side. The side surface of the protrusion butts against the coupling portion when the operating portion of the pull member is pulled in the direction of removal such that a moving force in the direction of removal is applied to the coupling portion from the protrusion so as to move the sliding member.
