Connector assembly

A connector assembly comprising:

• a first connector including a first insulator and a first contact, the first contact being held by the first insulator;
• a second connector including a second insulator and a second contact and being fitted to the first connector along a fitting direction, the second contact being held by the second insulator;
• a lever member held by one of the first insulator and the second insulator in a rotatable manner about a rotational axis:
• a rotational shaft member extending along the rotational axis and rotating in accordance with rotation of the lever member, the rotational shaft member including a cam surface for pressing the first contact and the second contact against each other;
• and
• a cam mechanism moving the first insulator and the second insulator relatively along the fitting direction in conjunction with rotation of the lever member,
• wherein, when the lever member is rotated from an initial rotation position to a first rotation position with the second insulator being situated at a start-of-fitting position with respect to the first insulator, the cam mechanism moves the second insulator to a fitting position along the fitting direction, and when the lever member is further rotated from the first rotation position to a second rotation position, the first contact and the second contact are brought into contact with each other with a predetermined contact pressure due to the cam surface of the rotational shaft member while the second insulator is kept at the fitting position.
