Abstract
This invention prevents lowering of working efficiency and an abnormal deformation, a breakage and the like of conductive terminals upon coupling a printed circuit base plate to a card edge connector in a card edge connector assembly. When a card edge connector 10 is inserted into an mouth 4 in a base plate holder 1, sliding edge portions 27 ride on ramp faces 5a on ribs 5 to pivot a pair of inner housings 20. Then, contacting portions 22a of first terminals 22 engage with second terminals on opposite sides of a printed circuit base plate 2. The printed circuit base plate 2 enters smoothly between the contacting portions 22a without causing an elastic deformation in the portions 22a and gouging the plate 22 due to their contact.
