Abstract
Provided is a connector having reduced height and area that facilitates the retention and removal of a connection object while preventing damages to itself during operation. According to the present disclosure, a connector () includes an insulator () having an accommodation section () for allowing insertion of a connection object (an FPC), an actuator () attached to the insulator (), and a locking member () that supports the connection object (the FPC) accommodated in the accommodation section () in an insertion-removal direction. When the actuator () is pushed in along a direction substantially orthogonal to the insertion-removal direction, the locking member () is elastically deformed and releases the connection object (the FPC).
