Abstract
An electrical connector assembly consists of a first connector having a driven member rotatably supported thereon and a resilient member provided between the first connector and the driven member; and a second connector having a drive means which engages with and drives the driven member into rotation to bias the resilient member, wherein the resilient member, when biased, produces a repulsion force and a drawing force in order, the repulsion force and the drawing force acting through the driven member on the second connector in directions of repelling and drawing the second connector, respectively. A reliable coupling with a low force and an improved working efficiency are attained.
