ABSTRACT:
This invention aims to settle an attaching state of a connector assembly by positively engaging a lock piece of the assembly with an apparatus m. In the connector assembly, a male housing 4 is provided on its side with a deformable lock piece 15, which is loosely engaged with a recess 24 formed in the apparatus m when the male housing 4 is fitted in a chamber 16 in the apparatus m. When a female housing 3 is coupled to the male housing 4, a projection 13 provided on the female housing 3 pushes the lock piece 15 from its inner side so that a pawl 15a is deeply engaged with the recess 24.
