Abstract
The electrical connector in accordance with the present invention may be used for signal transmission/reception between a card and a circuit of a machine concerned, for example. The electrical connector has a frame to which attached are a rear structure having a card inserting/pulling port and a connector body having a contact group. Also attached to the frame are a longitudinally movable slider and a shaft having a swing fulcrum. The slider has engagement pawls adapted to be engaged with a card, and the shaft has an operating knob having a card holding portion. When the slider advances with the insertion of a card, the shaft is swung so that the operating knob is pushed out and the holding portion comes in contact with the rear end surface of the card, thereby to prevent the card from being erroneously pulled out.
