Abstract
In the process of connecting first and second housings (), a slider () is kept at an advanced position by locking a resilient stopper () and a stopper receiving portion (), and springs () accumulate spring forces. The resilient stopper () and the stopper receiving portion () are released as the housings () are connected and the slider () is moved to a retracted position while being biased by the springs (). The resilient stopper () projects from a base end () to a tip () and has a first support () at the base end () to function as a support of deflection when starting deflection in the process of connecting the first and second housings () and a second support () closer to the tip () than the base end () to function as a support of deflection following the first support ().
