ABSTRACT:
The invention generally relates to a camming system for mating and unmating a pair of connectors having a housing mounting a plurality of terminals mateable with the terminals of the other connector and a camming system for moving the housings towards and away from each other along a mating axis. A lock slide member is mounted on one of the housings and slidably movable along a path transverse to the mating axis. The lock slide member is including at least one cam track extending oblique to the mating axis and the other housing has at least one cam follower projecting into the cam track for mating the connectors in response to sliding movement of the lock slide member. According to the invention, a lever means is pivotally mounted on the lock slide member, and an arcuated slot is disposed in the lever means slidably engaging a projection formed in one of the housings.
