The present invention relates to an electrical connector for connecting flexible printed circuit (FPC) boards. The connector has a housing and contact terminals disposed in the housing. An actuator is pivotally attached to the housing. The housing has a pair of retaining members between which a holding portion is defined. An FPC board is inserted into the holding portion and fixed to the housing by the actuator to establish electrical connection with the contact terminals. Each retaining member is supported by a metal bracket which is attached to the housing to increase the holding strength. The metal bracket has a main portion, a fixing portion and a support portion both expending perpendicularly from the main portion. A pair of lugs formed at side edges of the FPC board engage with the retaining members such that back movement of the FPC board from the housing is prevented. |
