ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a connector including: an approximately box-shaped housing having an insertion opening for the insertion of an FPC; forked contact members provided within the housing; and a lever which is provided so as to face the insertion opening of the housing, and which is turnably held by the housing. With such an arrangement, the forked contact member includes a base, an upper arm and a lower arm, and a forked engaging arm. The tip of the lower arm is held by the housing. The lever includes a holding portion, a rotational shaft, and first plate cams. Upon raising the lever, the distance between the tips of each of the forked engaging arms is increased by the actions of the first plate cam, thereby increasing the distance between the upper arm and the lower arm of each of the forked contact members.
