  • Publication number: 20060105622
    Abstract: Locking members installed in a housing of a connector each include a first piece having at one end an engaging portion to engage the anchoring portion formed in a flexible printed circuit board, a pressure receiving portion at the other end to be urged by a pivoting member, and a projection inwardly extending from the pressure receiving portion; a second piece having at one end a connection portion connected to a substrate; and a jointing fulcrum portion connecting the first and second pieces. When the engaging portions of the locking members engage the anchoring portions of the circuit board, the second pieces are void of parts facing to the engaging portions. The housing includes notches at positions corresponding to the locking members. The connector achieves further reduced overall height and stable holding force for the circuit board even with less conductors without failed connection.
