ABSTRACT:
According to the electrical connector of the present invention, locking levers are disposed with the use of the spaces inevitably formed between the connector body and a shield frame unit which surrounds the connector body, and engagement pieces formed at the locking levers are adapted to be engaged with and disengaged from engagement portions formed at a counter electrical connector to be connected to the electrical connector.
The shield frame unit shuts off electrical noise and it is possible, without the electrical connector being increased in size, to prevent the counter electrical connector from being unexpectedly pulled out. The engagement pieces may be made of metal and the engagement portions may be made of synthetic resin. In this case, even though the counter electical connector is forcibly pulled out, this merely damages the engagement portions without adverse effects exerted upon the signal transmission/reception function and the like of the electrical connector.
