Abstract
In a connector including first and second contacts having first and second contact points, respectively, an actuator is provided rotatable between a closed position and an open position and includes a cam portion faced to a connection object and a cutout portion adjacent to the cam portion. The first contact further has an engaging portion and a first beam portion elastically supporting the engaging portion to a housing. The engaging portion has a recess faced to the connection object and engaged with the cam portion. The second contact further has a contacting portion disposed at the cutout portion and a second beam portion elastically supporting the contacting portion to the housing. The contacting portion has a shape such that the contacting portion surrounds the cam portion in cooperation with the recess and biases the actuator towards the open position when the actuator is located near the open position.
