Abstract
A connector assembly having a first member and a second member, wherein the first member has a substrate with a face extending in the fore-and-aft and side-to-side directions, resilient members, contacts, and locking portions. The substrate is provided with inclined faces gradually approaching said face in the fore-and-aft direction. The second member has a housing, electrical contact portions, and counterpart locking portions. As the second member is guided along the inclined faces and approaches said face, the contacts and electrical contact portions are brought into electrical contact and the second member is biased as a result of contact with the resilient members. At the same time, the counterpart locking portions of the second member are engaged by the locking portions of the first member.
