In a connector plug covering the housing (,) with contacts (,) in the socket engaging hole (,) by the metal shell portion (,) of the shield case (,), the metal shell portion (,) is roughly angular cylindrical in the direction of insertion of a plug, by installing the elasticity portion (,) bulged out to this roughly angular and cylindrical both-side portion (,) or bent to curve outwards the lower part of the roughly angular cylindrical both-side portion, and forms in the direction of insertion of a plug the gap (,) to let have flexibility to the metal shell portion (,) in the bottom. And then if the connector plug (,) is inserted into the connector socket (,), by the elasticity portion (,) of the metal shell portion(,), the metal shell portion (,) has flexibility as a whole, the escape when the metal shell portion (,) is pressed in to the inner part, is absorbed, the metal shell portion (,) is surely stuck and connected to the connector socket (,), and the overall structure comes to be compact.
