ABSTRACT:
A connector comprises first and second housings adapted to be coupled to each other. A pivotal plate is pivotally disposed on one of the housings. A pair of leaf springs is interposed between one of the housings and the pivotal plate. A latch is provided for locking the two housings upon coupling. When the two housings are to be coupled, the pivotal plate is pivoted by the action of the leaf springs. This occurs after the two housings reach an intermediate state of coupling.
