Abstract
A lever-type connector (C) has an initial lock (L) that is released to enable rotation of a lever () when the connector (C) is connected lightly to a mating connector () and the connector (C) is connected properly to the mating connector () by rotating the lever () from an initial position to a connection end position. The lever () and a housing () have rotation regulating portions (S) spaced from the initial lock (L) and configured to contact each other in a rotating direction of the lever () when the lever () is at the initial position for regulating rotation of the lever (). An abutting portion () is provided near the entrance of a cam groove () and abuts against a cam pin () if the housing () is pushed in a connecting direction to the mating connector () when the lever () is at the initial position.
