Patent ID: 7014487

Claim:
A connector comprising: a housing; a slider; a guide formed on the housing, said guide designed to guide upward and downward movement of the slider along a predetermined plane within the housing; a passage defined in the slider, said passage receiving a connective member inserted in the housing in parallel with the predetermined plane; a receiving surface defined on the slider, said receiving surface designed to receive the connective member inserted through the passage so as to cause the downward movement of the slider; an elastic terminal extending to a free tip end from a stationary end fixed to the housing; and an inclined surface is defined on the slider so as to receive the elastic terminal, the surface being defined between the passage and the elastic terminal, said inclined surface extending along an imaginary plane intersecting an imaginary reference plane including the predetermined plane by a predetermined inclination angle so as to cause the elastic terminal to get closer to the passage in response to the downward movement of the slider based on elasticity of the elastic terminal.
