ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a board connector for electrically connecting together circuit boards which are incorporated in, for example, a mobile telephone. A dust-proof measure is carried out by swingably attaching a cover member to a plug via a fulcrum shaft, and covering contact portions of the plug and socket in a fitting state with the cover member. In one of the plug and the cover member, a protrusion which causes an end portion to continuously butt against another one of the plug and the cover member from one end to another end is disposed, whereby, when the plug is inserted, the force of inserting the plug is evenly transmitted from the cover member to the whole plug. Joining portions which, when the plug and the socket are fitted to each other, are joined to each other in a front side with respect to the fulcrum shaft are disposed in the socket and the cover member. The plug is pulled up with using the cover member as a lever by swinging the cover member with setting the joining portions as a lever fulcrum.
