Patent attributes
A connector (100) for connecting a sheet-like electronic member includes a housing (10); a number of terminals (20) loaded in the housing, said terminal including a first and second beams (21 and 22) defining a gap therebetween; and an actuator (30) pivotally movable between an open position and a closed position relative to the housing. The actuator is provided with cam portions (310) engaging with the terminals so as to broaden the gap between the first and second beams when the actuator is at the open position for facilitating the sheet-like electronic member to enter, and to allow said gap to narrow when the actuator is at the closed position so that the sheet-like electronic member can be clasped and retained by the first and second beams, and retaining portions (311) adapted for engaging with and further retaining the sheet-like electronic member.
