Abstract
A feeding-side connector and a receiving-side connector are provisionally fitted to each other so that these connectors are locked by engagement of a locking hole of the feeding-side connector and a locking arm of the receiving-side connector. In this state, the lever of a toggle mechanism is pushed down forward until it hits on the front surface of a lever chamber. Thus, a fixed assembly composed of a connector body and a wire protection jig for a group of wires connected to the female terminals thereof advances to complete the electric connection between the female terminals and male terminals. The driving side link and follower side link of the lever are placed in the state concaved in a rotating direction of the lever from its substantially horizontal direction, thus locking these links.
