Abstract
A connector housing has an insertion slot for receiving a companion base board, a plurality of grooves defined in a housing bottom in a direction normal to the insertion slot, and a plurality of pin attachment holes disposed between the insertion slot and the grooves. Contact pins are approximately L-shaped and pivotally held in the pin attachment holes, respectively, in the vicinity of central bent portions of the contact pins. When the connector housing is attached to a base board and the companion board is inserted in the insertion slot, ends of the contact pins are connected to a circuit pattern on the base board and opposite ends of the contact pins are connected to a circuit pattern on the companion board. The base and companion boards are therefore electrically connected to each other substantially perpendicularly to each other.
