Abstract
A two-part multiterminal connector includes a terminal plug connector element and a complementary terminal socket connector element. A cam mounted on a shaft on one connector element includes a spiral camming channel which is centered on the shaft. The channel engages a cam follower mounted on the other connector element, whereby rotation of the cam about the shaft causes the cam follower to be drawn along the spiral camming channel. As the cam rotates, the cam follower is drawn closer to the shaft, causing the pin and socket terminals within the connector elements to mate. Reversal of the cam assembly disassembles the connector.
