Abstract
The present invention provides a connector that has a function of enabling and facilitating a secure connection of an inserted substrate. A connector includes a housing, a contact point member, and a position determining member. The housing includes an insertion recessed portion into which a substrate is inserted. The contact point member includes a contact point portion connected electrically to a conductive portion of the substrate. The position determining member determines a position of the contact point member. The position is determined to connect the contact point portion to the conductive portion of the substrate and is driven by moving the contact point member to retract the contact point portion from the insertion recessed portion and inserting the substrate into the insertion recessed portion.
