Abstract
A connector for being fitted to an other member so as to be prevented from disengaging by a locking piece on the other member includes a connector housing including a recessed portion engaged with the locking piece, and a sliding member that slidably moves relative to the connector housing. The connector housing is formed by coupling a first housing member and a second housing member, a tip portion of the locking piece coming into sliding contact with a side surface having the recessed portion when removing the connector housing from the other member. At least a portion of a seam between the first and second housing members on the side surface is inclined relative to a direction of attaching/detaching to/from the other member, the portion being firstly crossed by the tip portion of the locking piece when removing the connector housing from the other member.
