ABSTRACT:
A connector for printed circuit boards, particularly for flexible ones such as FPC or FFC, has an insulating housing (2) with a recess (7) opened up and base contacts (3) held in the housing at regular intervals and each having a resilient beam (14) and an arm (5) integral with the beam. Each beam has a conductive protrusion (17) in the recess, and each arm extending along the housing's top into the recess has a pivotal end (18) facing the protrusion. An insulated pressing cover (4) engaging with the pivotal ends is rotatable between its pressing position adjacent to and its releasing position remote from the protrusions. The pivotal ends (18) lock the cover then pushing the circuit board (30) against the resilient beams (14). The cover has cover contacts (20) rotatably engaging with the pivotal ends and corresponding to the base contacts (3), so that the pivotal ends, the cover contacts (20) and the printed circuit board (30) are electrically connected to each other at the pressing position.
