Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2120298A1] The assembly has a multicontact connector housing (10) comprising relief blocking elements (20, 21), and a multicontact connector housing (30) comprising a housing body (120) extending along a longitudinal axis (X). A locking cap (50) is moved relative to the body perpendicularly to the axis between locked and unlocked positions. The cap has a blocking ramp (80) in which the element slides when the cap passes from unlocked position to the locked position. The body has setbacks (101, 102, 110) in its outside surface corresponding to thickness of the cap to receive the cap in locked position. An independent claim is also included for a method for removably assembling connector housings of a connection assembly.
