Patent attributes
An electrical connector mountable to a circuit board is disclosed. The disclosed connector includes a shell which comprises a first plate-like portion, a second plate-like portion and connection portions. The first plate-like portion extends in a predetermined direction and is provided with fixed portions at opposite ends thereof in the predetermined direction. The fixed portion is to be fixed to the circuit board. The second plate-like portion extends in the predetermined direction. Each of the connection portions connects the first and the second plate-like portion. The second plate-like portion is provided with force resist portions at opposite ends thereof in the predetermined direction. The force resist portions are configured so that, when a force is applied to the electrical connector along a direction from the first plate-like portion towards the second plate-like portion, the force resist portions resist the force.
