Abstract
A housing ( ) of a connector has vertical screw holes ( ) parallel to a connecting direction of the housing ( ) and horizontal screw holes ( ) normal to the connecting direction. Thus, the housing ( ) is both horizontally and vertically mountable on a circuit board (P), and flexibility in the use of the housing ( ) is improved. Further, the horizontal screw holes ( ) are normal to the connecting direction and can be formed by a pair of molds movable along the connecting direction. Therefore, costs necessary for the molds can be reduced.
