ABSTRACT:
A ZIF connector comprising a combination of first and second connector members attached to first and second objects to be connected, respectively. The first connector member comprises a first housing, a pair of urging plates, a slider, and a pair of flexible contact sheets. The second connector member comprises a second housing and a plurality of contacts. The first housing comprises a support portion having a curved surface for supporting, when the slider slides in the first housing towards the second connector member, an outer surface of the intermediate portion so that the intermediate portion forms a large arc. The urging plate has a pressing portion for pressing an inner surface of the intermediate portion to make the intermediate portion form the large arc in cooperation with the support portion when the urging plate is elastically deflected by the cam portion. The slider has a shoulder portion with a curved surface for supporting the inner surface of the intermediate portion to maintain the large arc formed by the intermediate portion when the slider is located farthest from the first housing.
