ABSTRACT:
A circuit board connector has a fixing member (20; 32; 42; 52) for a housing (10) on a circuit board (K). Engaging portions (24) of the fixing member (20; 32; 42; 52) are bent to increase the areas of engaging surfaces (25) in the thickness direction (TD). Thus, contact areas between the engaging portions (24) and restricting surfaces (14) of the housing (10) increase, and forces acting on the contact surfaces are distributed. Accordingly, even if large separating forces repeatedly act on a housing (10), damage and to the engaging portions (24) and restricting surfaces (14) can be prevented.
