Abstract
An ultra-thin flat flexible circuit board connector includes a movable lid capable of lifting and overturning as an upper side wall of the flexible circuit board connector. Positions of the movable lid having been lifted and overturned are an at an opposite direction to that of the flexible circuit board to be inserted, and thus leaving insertion operations of the flexible circuit board entirely unaffected. A breadth of the lifting and overturning movable lid has a plurality of terminal grooves. When the movable lid is closed, terminals of the flexible circuit board are partially exposed in the terminal grooves at the movable lid, thereby effectively reducing thickness of the flexible circuit board connector for forming an ultra-thin flexible circuit board connector.
