Abstract
A connector apparatus includes a first and a second connector connected and disconnected to each other with relative movement in a fitting direction and a separating direction, respectively. In the first connector, a lever member is coupled to a base member and a housing which are relatively movable in the fitting and separating direction. The lever member includes an axis portion rotatably supported by the base member, a first cam portion spaced from the axis portion, and a second cam portion formed at a rotating end. The housing has a first cam-operated portion cooperated with the first cam portion to rotate the lever member following the movement thereof. The second connector has a second cam-operated portion engaged with and separated from the second cam portion following the rotation of the lever member.
