ABSTRACT:
A connector assembly comprises a gear member having a pinion engageable with the rack of a complementary connector. The gear member comprises a lever arm for actuating the pinion. The gear member is latched in the fully coupled position by a resilient latching member of the connector housing. A secondary locking slide member can be shifted from a pre-locked position to a locked position such that an end portion is positioned below the resilient latching arm to prevent biasing thereof. Safe and reliable locking of the complementary connectors is thus achieved.
