Abstract
A connector for switching between the states of the connection and non-connection to a mating connector by a cam mechanism () movably installed in insulators (), wherein the cam mechanism comprises a first cam () and a second cam (). The first cam is rotatable about an axis, slidable between first and second positions in a direction parallel with the axis, and energized toward the first position by an elastic member (). The second cam is rotated in conjunction with the first cam to provide either of the connected state and non-connected state according to a rotating angle. The first cam comprises a locked part () engaged with the lock part () of the insulator in the rotating direction thereof when positioned at the first position and disengaged from the lock part when positioned at the second position.
