Abstract
A connector includes: (i) a lock arm that extends rearwardly in a cantilevered shape from a housing main body, and (ii) a detecting member arranged to be movable forward from an initial position to a detecting position. The detecting member includes (i) an elastic arm portion extending in a cantilever shape diagonally upward and forward; (ii) an abutting portion at an extended end portion of the elastic arm portion and restricting movement of the detecting member from the initial position to the detecting position; (iii) a pair of walls, one at the left and one at the right, raised from the top surface of the housing main body; (iv) a bridge portion connecting top ends of the walls; and (v) an excessive bending restriction portion restricting excessive bending of the lock arm upward by covering the top surface of the lock arm with the bridge portion.
