Abstract
An electrical connector includes an insulative base, a cover mounted on the base, a number of conductive terminals secured to the base, and a cam actuator extending through said cover and base to actuate the cover to slide on the base. The cam actuator includes a retention disk, a central disk, a cam disk, a transition disk, and a driving disk from down to up. The retention disk and the central disk are coaxial and located in the base. The cam disk, the transition disk, and the driving disk are coaxial and located in the cover. The cam actuator rotates on axis of the central disk. The axis of the cam disk is parallel to but offset from the axis of the central disk. The diameter of the transition disk is less than the diameter of the driving disk and more than the diameter of the cam disk.
