1. An electrical connector comprising:

  • an end portion of a flat circuit device which forms a connectively engaging protrusion on which a plurality of contacting terminals are arranged and a supporting board portion for supporting the connectively engaging protrusion, andfirst and second conductive shells having respectively first and second plate portions opposite to each other with the supporting board portion between,wherein said flat circuit device has a board—

    shaped insulating base on which said connectively engaging protrusions and said supporting board portion are provided and in which a plurality of strip—

    shaped conductors are buried and arranged in parallel with each other and to form with end portions thereof respectively, said contacting terminals are arranged on said connectively engaging protrusion to expose to the outside of said board—

    shaped insulating base for coming into contact directly and respectively with conductive contacts of a mating electrical connector,wherein said first conductive shell is attached to said supporting board portion with said first plate portion thereof covering directly a first surface of said supporting board portion and said second conductive shell is attached also to said supporting board portion with said second plate portion thereof covering directly a second surface opposite to said first surface of said supporting board portion, so that said first and second conductive shells are operative to hold said connectively engaging protrusion supported by said supporting board portion at said end portion of said flat circuit device for causing the same to engage with said mating electrical connector in such a manner that said contacting terminals are exposed on said collectively engaging protrusion, andwherein said first conductive shell is provided with a pressing tongue operative to come into press—

    contact with an end surface provided between said first and second surfaces of said supporting board portion to be perpendicular to each of said first and second surfaces.
