ABSTRACT:
An LIF connector includes a first connector including a housing having cam projections formed on a side surface thereof, a second connector having a reception portion for receiving the first connector, and a slider having a generally U-shape includes a pair of opposed side walls each having a cam groove for guiding a respective one of the cam projections. When the slider is pushed into the second connector, the slider causes the first connector to be inserted into the second connector. A movable lock portion is pivotally mounted on a distal end of at least one of the opposed side walls of the slider. The lock portion, passed through a housing of the second connector when the slider is inserted into the second connector, is brought into a laid condition, thereby locking the slider to the second connector.
