ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY
First Claim
1. An electrical connector having a connector main body to be connected with a terminal portion of a signal transmitting medium, being configured in such a manner that, though the connector main body thereof, a signal transmitting medium is electrically connected to a conductive path provided on the wall of a product case which constitutes an electronic device having an predetermined electronic circuit,the electrical connector is configured in such a manner that a conductive contact that comes in contact with the conductive path of the product case and a pair of connected legs that protrude from the connector main body so as to face each other are provided in the connector main body, a fit fixing part formed in a beam shape extending so as to be arranged in a portion between the pair of connected legs themselves is provided in the product case,wherein a sandwiching supporter that reciprocatably comes in contact along with the surface of the fit fixing part of the product case and sandwiches the fit fixing part of the product case in the thickness direction between the conductive contact and the connected legs is provided in the connected legs, an engagement locking part that protrudes in the thickness direction of the product case and has an inclined engaging surface approaching both of extending directions of the fit fixing part is provided in the sandwiching supporter of the connected leg, andwhen the connector main body moves in either one of the extending directions of the fit fixing part, the engagement locking part is fitted to the product case side through the inclined engaging surface and brings the connector main body into a locked state in the extending directions of the fit fixing part.
