Abstract:
1. An electrical connector to be disposed on a main board, and to be connected to and engaged with a circuit board, the electrical connector comprising: a plastic base, which is stationarily fixed to the main board and formed with a connection slot, wherein the connection slot is provided with a first point and a second point distant from the first point, the connection slot has an opening, and one end of the circuit board may be inserted into and connected to the opening; a plurality of terminals disposed on the plastic base, wherein each of the terminals has a projecting connection point disposed on the connection slot, the terminals comprise one row of first terminals and one row of second terminals, the connection point of the first terminal and the connection point of the second terminal project in opposite directions, and a line connecting the connection point of the first terminal to the connection point of the second terminal is not perpendicular to an upper surface of the circuit board; a board engaging structure having at least one engaging portion, which can engage with the circuit board when the circuit board is inserted into the connection slot for positioning; and at least one elastic card-ejecting member, which enters a forced state when the one end of the circuit board is inserted into the connection slot by a stroke and thus reaches the first point of the connection slot, and pushes the circuit board out by another stroke so that the circuit board is engaged with the engaging portion when the elastic card-ejecting member bounces, wherein the one end of the circuit board is located at the second point of the connection slot, and the other end of the circuit board is disposed outside the plastic base and is engaged by the at least one engaging portion.
