A low insertion force type connector is provided which comprises an elongated housing (1) made of an insulating material and having an elongated cavity (2) in a longitudinal direction. A plurality of contacts (6) are located at predetermined intervals along the length of the elongated cavity and are adapted to contact an edge portion of the printed circuit board (5). A pair of latches (4) are located at opposite ends of the housing providing a spacing defined therebetween over the cavity. Each contact comprises first contact means (61) having a first contact portion (61a) for contacting one surface of hte printred cirucit board and second contact means (62) having a second contact portion (62a) for contacting the other surface of the printed circuit board, and a pin portion (63) for supporting the first and second contact means. The second contact means has a spring portion (64) located between the second contact portion and the pin portion, the spring portion comprising a base portion (64a) connected to the pin portion, a vertical portion (64b) vertically extending from the base portion, and a U-shaped portion (64c) extending from the top of the vertical portion and having a free end connected to the second contact portion. |
