Zusammenfassung:A releasable connector assembly 210 comprises a first connector 224 and a second connector 226 releasably connectable within a cavity (237, Fig 18) of the first connector. The first and second connectors include first and second axial load shoulders (266, Fig 18) and (270, Fig 19). One of the first and second connectors includes a guide track (219, Fig 18) and the other of the first and second connectors includes a guide member (276, Fig 19) configured to be received within the guide track. In use, the guide member is guided along the guide track from an entry region to a locking region (258, Fig 18) to configure the first and second connectors in a connected state, and the guide member is guided along the guide track from the locking region to an exit region to configure the first and second connectors in a disconnected state. When the guide member is located at the locking region of the guide track the first and second axial load shoulders are engaged such that axial loading between the first and second connectors is transmitted between the first and second axial load shoulders. A method of use is also disclosed.
