Connector

A connector comprising:

• a first housing;
• a second housing fittable to the first housing;
• and
• a lever attachable to the first housing to draw and fit the first housing and the second housing to each other by moving from a temporary lock position to a final lock position,
• wherein the lever comprises a lever-side lock portion which is elastically deformable in a first direction away from a surface of the first housing, and which comprises a reinforcing rib that enhances rigidity against a deformation of the lever-side lock protrusion,
• wherein the first housing comprises a housing-side lock portion which locks the lever-side lock portion when the lever is in the temporary lock position, which inhibits movement of the lever to the final lock position when the housing-side lock portion locks the lever-side lock portion, and which permits the lever to move to the final lock position when the housing-side lock portion is released from locking of the lever-side lock portion, and
• wherein the second housing comprises a lock releasing portion which pushes the lever-side lock portion in the first direction so as to release locking between the lever-side lock portion and the housing-side lock portion.
