Electric connector having lateral fasteners arranged along and rotatable about a horizontal axis

An electric connector, comprising:

• an insulation housing formed with a plurality of terminal slots arranged along a horizontal axis;
• two positioning slots formed at two sides of the insulation housing and arranged along the horizontal axis;
• a plurality of terminals inserted into the terminal slots of the insulation housing, respectively, the terminals being arranged along the horizontal axis, and each of the terminals having a pin horizontally located on a bottom surface of the insulation housing;
• and
• two lateral fasteners, each of which including a main body having a first end engaged with a corresponding one of the positioning slots of the insulation housing, the lateral fasteners being arranged along the horizontal axis, and each of the lateral fasteners having a positioning surface at a lower side thereof, wherein,
• the first end of the main body is formed with an engagement structure,
• the insulation housing is formed with resilient members within the positioning slots,
• each of the resilient members is formed with an engagement block,
• when the lateral fastener is inserted into the positioning slot, the engagement block engages with the engagement structure of the lateral fastener, and
• the main body of the lateral fastener may be rotated about the horizontal axis so that the positioning surface of the fastener may be located at the same level as the pins of the terminals.
