ABSTRACT:
A connector assembly is provided which includes first and second connector housings. In order to facilitate complete mating of the housings, a lever is supported by the first housing. Pivotal movement of the lever causes gear-like elements associated with the lever and the second housing to urge the housings together. The lever is external of the connector assembly and the gear-like elements are internal thereof. The lever engages the first housing in such a manner as to prevent rotation of the lever until camming elements associated with the lever engage camming elements associated with the second housing.
