ABSTRACT:
An edge board connector includes a housing and two terminal pins each of which is formed from an elongated sheet metal and each of which has a back section and a curved movable section that are integrally formed with each other end to end. Each of the back sections abuts against the inner surface of a side wall of the housing and has an intermediate portion which is split to form a mounting leg that extends out from the housing. Each of the movable sections has a positioning part abutting against the middle wall unit of the housing, and a curved acting part having an intermediate portion which is split to form an elongated and arched clamping sheet that has two ends integrally formed with the remaining portion of the acting part and that extends into the card chamber in the housing at a middle portion thereof. The curved distal end portion of each of the acting parts abuts against the inner surface of the side wall of the housing so as to position the pins in the housing. A circuit card can be inserted into the card chamber and clamped between the clamping sheets of the connector.
