Electrical connector

A connector includes: an insulator that includes a first main surface being a surface that faces a cable, and a rear surface being a surface on an opposite side of the first main surface; a contact that electrically connects the cable and a substrate; and an actuator that is rotatable about a rotation axis parallel to the substrate. The actuator includes a plate-shaped side wall that intersects with the rotation axis. The side wall includes a base portion including a second main surface that is a surface that faces the first main surface when the actuator is rotated in a direction closer to the cable, and a recognition portion that protrudes from the base portion. A distance from the rotation axis to a leading end of the recognition portion in a direction orthogonal to the second main surface is larger than a distance from the rotation axis to the rear surface.

Connector having an actuator

A connectoraccording to the present disclosure comprises a contact; and an insulatorhaving an attaching grooveon an outer surface into which the contactis inserted and attached, wherein the insulatorhas a bottom wallformed to be continuous with a bottom surface of the attaching groovein a downward direction; and at least a part of the attaching groovehas a wide portionwider in at least one direction than a groove width on the outer surface along a direction parallel to the bottom wall

Connector capable of suppressing solder rising and flux rising

A cable connector includes: a contact (A,B) supported by an insulator () having a cable insertion groove (); a lock member () rotatable about a rotation shaft (), between a lock position where a lock portion () of the lock member faces a locked portion () of a sheet-like cable () inserted in the insulator and an unlock position where the lock portion does not face the locked portion; and a bias portion () for biasing the lock member to the lock position, wherein an inner surface of the cable insertion groove includes a reference surface () which is an end surface in a movement direction of the lock portion from the lock position to the unlock position, and a rotation center G of the rotation shaft is located on a side opposite to the movement direction, with respect to the reference surface.
