Abstract:
A sound producing device comprising:a case; a connector integral with the case, the connector including an upper plate, lower plate, a pair of side plates between the upper and lower plates, an opening formed by the upper and lower plates and side plates, a hook formed on each of the side plates adjacent the opening, and a projection formed on the side plate at an inner portion thereof; a pair of elastic contacts projected from the case to the inside of the connector; a slider inserted in the connector from the opening, the slider having a pressure portion and a pair of side plates formed outside the pressure portion, the pressure portion being provided to press said elastic contacts against terminals of a substrate inserted in the connector from the opening; and an introduction portion adjacent the pressure portion and having an upward slant so as to form a gap for introducing the substrate; a pair of hooks each of which is formed at a position adjacent a tip end portion of each of the side plates of the slider, so that the hooks slide over the projection of the connector when the slider is inserted in the connector and the slider is held at the inner portion by the projection, and so that the hooks engage with the hooks of the side plates of the connector when the slider is pulled out, thereby preventing the slider from being removed from the connector.
