Abstract
A flexible circuit board connector includes an insulating housing, a plurality of conductive terminals assembled to the insulating housing, an elastic module and a locking board. A front surface of the insulating housing is recessed rearward to form an inserting groove. The insulating housing opens an opening. The locking board accommodated in the opening has a base board. Two opposite sides of the base board extend downward to form two side boards. Bottom edges of the two side boards protrude downward to form two locking hooks. A flexible printed circuit board is inserted rearward into the inserting groove and pushes rearward against front surfaces of the two locking hooks, after the flexible printed circuit board slips away from the two locking hooks, the two locking hooks project into two gaps of the flexible printed circuit board, respectively.
