Connector with suction cover

A connector with a suction cover, comprising:

• a board-to-board connector to be mounted on a first board and interposed between the first board and a second board to electrically connect a plurality of pads of the first board with a plurality of pads of the second board respectively;
• and
• a suction cover detachable from the board-to-board connector, wherein
• the board-to-board connector includes:
• a housing made of insulating resin;
• a plurality of contacts held on the housing;
• and
• a reinforcing member made of metal,
• the housing includes a second board opposed surface to be opposed to the second board,
• the reinforcing member includes a reinforcing plate part to cover the second board opposed surface,
• each of the contacts includes an electrical contact spring piece projecting from the second board opposed surface,
• the suction cover includes:
• a flat-plate suction plate part configured to be sucked by a suction nozzle by covering the electrical contact spring piece of each of the contacts;
• a plurality of attachment spring pieces configured to catch on the board-to-board connector so that the suction plate part is detachable from the board-to-board connector;
• and
• a first deformation restraining part projecting from the suction plate part toward the second board opposed surface in order to inhibit the suction plate part from being deformed toward the second board opposed surface in a state where the suction cover is attached to the board-to-board connector, and
• the first deformation restraining part is disposed to come into contact with the reinforcing plate part when the suction plate part is deformed toward the second board opposed surface.
