CONNECTOR FOR FLEXIBLE PRINTED CIRCUIT

摘要

A connector ( 100 ) for connecting a sheet-like electronic member includes a housing ( 10 ); a number of terminals ( 20 ) loaded in the housing, said terminal including a first and second beams ( 21 and 22 ) defining a gap therebetween; and an actuator ( 30 ) pivotally movable between an open position and a closed position relative to the housing. The actuator is provided with cam portions ( 310 ) engaging with the terminals so as to broaden the gap between the first and second beams when the actuator is at the open position for facilitating the sheet-like electronic member to enter, and to allow said gap to narrow when the actuator is at the closed position so that the sheet-like electronic member can be clasped and retained by the first and second beams, and retaining portions ( 311 ) adapted for engaging with and further retaining the sheet-like electronic member.
