ABSTRACT:
A flexible board electrical connector includes an insulating housing having an opening and a pair of holding sections on opposite sides of the opening; a plurality of contact elements having fulcrum sections and spring contact sections disposed in the opening; a pressure member attached to the holding sections for rotation between a closed position where it is close to the contact elements and an open position where it is spaced apart from the closed position; the insulating housing having receiving faces for supporting a leading portion of a flexible board; the pressure member having a pressure edge and bearing faces such that when the pressure member is turned to the closed position, the pressure edge depresses the flexible board between the spring contact sections and the receiving faces while the bearing faces engage the fulcrum sections of the contact elements thereby preventing separation between the pressure member and the contact elements.
