<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electrical connector achieving reduced size. <P>SOLUTION: The electrical connector includes a contact and an insulated housing in which a terminal receiving hole receiving the contact is formed. In the contact, a holding part holding the contact to the insulated housing, a contact part projecting from an opening of one surface of the terminal receiving hole, and an elastically deformable elastic deformation part connecting between the holding part and the contact part are formed. The elastic deformation part is formed in an approximate S-shape having a first curved part connected to the holding part and a second curved part connected to the contact part, and the first curved part of the elastic deformation part is provided with a penetration groove corresponding to a free end of the contact part. A mating electrical apparatus makes contact with the elastic deformation part to press and deform. By allowing the free end of the contact part to enter the penetration groove, the height of the contact can be reduced, so that reduced size in the electrical connector is advantageously achieved. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT</p> |
