Abstract
A connector comprises an insulating housing (10) defining a plurality of isolated terminal chambers and a plurality of conductive terminals (20) disposed in respective terminal chambers of the insulating housing. Each of the terminal chambers has a bottom portion (101) on one side of the insulating housing and an opening (102) through a surface (103) on the opposite side of the insulating housing. Each of the conductive terminals comprises a fixing portion (201) that is fixed on the bottom portion of a corresponding terminal chamber, a contact portion (203) that is projecting out of the opening, and a middle portion (202) that is connected between the fixing portion and the contact portion and slanting from one end of the fixing portion towards the other end of the fixing portion. The middle portion and the contact portion are configured to move both towards the bottom portion and in a longitudinal direction of the insulating housing in response to pressure imposed on the contact portion.
