Abstract:
To allow a fit-in state between electrical connectors to be firmly maintained, elastic arm-shaped members  23 d  provided to a conductive shell member  23  so as to elastically displace to a direction orthogonal to a fit-in direction of a mating connector  10  are each provided with an engaging piece  23 e  having a connector contact surface  23 e 1  which the mating connector  10  faces from the depth in the fit-in direction and a shell contact surface  23 e 2  which a part of the conductive shell member  23  faces from the front in the fit-in direction. When an external force is applied to the mating connector  10  in a fit-in state to a removing direction opposite to the fit-in direction, the engaging piece  23 e  is brought into a state of being interposed between the mating connector  10  and the conductive shell member  23.  This avoids a situation in which the engaging piece  23 e  is removed from the mating connector  10  to cause a lock release.

Claim (Index 8):
The electrical connector device according to  claim 2 , wherein after protruding from the conductive shell member to the fit-in direction or a direction opposite thereto, the elastic arm-shaped member extends in a state of being folded to a direction opposite to a protruding direction.
