Abstract

An electrical connector is miniaturized and reduced in profile height, yet maintains strength and connection stability, uses elastic fixtures as a power source and provides stable fitting. When connectors are fitted with each other, a first contact of an elastic first fixture is brought to contact a second contact of a second fixture to be used as a power source. An inclined portion of a receptacle contact and an inclined portion of an insertion hole of a housing are formed roughly in the same shape to adjust support of the receptacle contact and provide stable connection. A first chamfered portion of the receptacle contact engages a recess of a plug contact to produce a clicking feeling. The first chamfered portions are positioned and brought to contact the recesses so the plug contact is held between a contact portion and an elastic portion of the receptacle contact.
