<p>Each of contact fittings 71 is obtained by bending a die-cut member having a metal plate portion of substantially rectangular shape and a metal piece connecting to a long side of the metal plate portion. The metal piece is folded to be accommodated within a region directly above a surface of the metal plate portion opposite a surface in contact with a front-surface electrode 21a or a back-surface electrode 21b. Then, the metal piece is bent along the length of the metal plate portion to form a hook 71e to be retained by a first housing 51a or a second housing 51b. Therefore, as compared to a structure in which hooks are orthogonal to the length of metal plate portions and bend outward from contact fittings, the arrangement width of the contact fittings 71 arranged in a direction substantially orthogonal to the length of the contact fittings 71 can be reduced, so that the size of the first housing 51a and the second housing 51b can be reduced. This means that it is possible to reduce the size of the connector 50.</p> |
