Abstract
The connector lock device for locking two connector housings comprises a roughly triangular protrusion member provided on a first connector housing and an E-shaped latch level member mounted on a second connector housing. The latch lever member includes a central leg portion extending from a movable transverse portion in parallel to and between the two leg portions and formed with a slot and two projected fulcrum portions and a flat depression portion. To lock the two connector housings, the protrusion member is inserted into the slot of the latch lever member. To unlock the two connector housings, the flat depression portion is depressed to pivot the central leg portion about the two fulcrums to release the protrusion member from a claw portion of the movable transverse portion.
