Abstract

A connector includes an outer housing, an inner housing provided with an engagement latch, a slide channel, and rails each being a groove, and a sliding member provided with support arms engaged with the respective rails, and a protrusion to latch the engagement latch. The slide channel is formed with a slide surface extending along the rail. The support arms each include a lower surface facing the slide surface, and an upper surface inclined relative to the slide surface. The groove forming the rail is formed as a recess including a bottom surface, a first side surface, and a second side surface. The second side surface faces the upper surface of the support arm, and is formed at an inclination angle corresponding to that of the upper surface.
