Patent abstract
A female housing (20) has a resiliently deformable lock arm (38), whereas a male housing (10) is provided with an interlocking portion (13). During the connection of the two housings (10, 20), the lock arm (38) is temporarily deformed while being held in sliding contact with the interlocking portion (13). When the two housings (10, 20) are properly connected, the lock arm (38) is restored resiliently to engage the interlocking portion (13). A front surface (14) of the interlocking portion (13) to face the lock arm (38) during a connecting process is arcuate. Thus, only a widthwise middle (14a) of the interlocking portion (13) slides in contact with the lock arm (38) during a connecting operation.
