Abstract
A connector apparatus includes first and second connectors. The first connector includes a first latching part, a second latching part, and an arm supporting the second latching part, and visible from an exterior. The second connector includes a first latched part to be latched with the first latching part, and a second latched part to be latched with the second latching part. The second connector is to be engaged with the first connector. In accordance with an advancement of the engagement between the first connector and the second connector, as the first latched part is latched by the first latching part, the second latching part is guided by the second latched part and the arm is deflected, and after the latching between the first latching part and the first latched part, as the second latched part is latched by the second latching part, the deflection of the arm is canceled.
