Abstract:
A connector to which a connection target object is fitted and connected by inserting the connection target object into a fitting chamber is configured to allow the fitting operation to be readily performed even in a case where the connector is small. An insertion guiding surface is provided round an insertion port through which the connection target object is inserted. The insertion guiding surface has an inner guiding surface that extends from the edge of the insertion port toward the fitting chamber, an intermediate guiding surface provided in a region outside the inner guiding surface, and an outer guiding surface provided in a region outside the intermediate guiding surface. The inner guiding surface differs from the intermediate guiding surface in terms of shape, and the intermediate guiding surface differs from the outer guiding surface in terms of shape.

Claim (Index 1):
A connector comprising:\n a housing having an insertion port into which a connection target object is inserted in a direction toward a surface of a substrate as an insertion direction and a fitting chamber into which the connection target object is inserted via the insertion port; and terminals that are connected to the connection target object in the fitting chamber so that the terminals are electrically continuous with the connection target object, wherein the housing has an insertion guiding surface that guides the insertion of the connection target object via the insertion port, and the insertion guiding surface has an inner guiding surface that extends from an edge of the insertion port toward an interior of the fitting chamber, an intermediate guiding surface provided in a region outside the inner guiding surface, and an outer guiding surface provided in a region outside the intermediate guiding surface with a shape of the inner guiding surface being different from a shape of the intermediate guiding surface and the shape of the intermediate guiding surface being different from a shape of the outer guiding surface.
