Printed circuit board connector

A printed circuit board connector equipped with a housing, and a plurality of plate-shaped connectors arranged in parallel in the housing, wherein

• the housing includes
• an insertion chamber one surface thereof open to enable insertion of a mating-side connector;
• a contact-insertion hole open in a direction opposite to the insertion chamber opening, penetrating the insertion chamber, and can be inserted therein by the connectors,
• the connectors
• include a base portion held inside the connector-insertion hole;
• contact-connecting portion a width thereof being narrower than the base portion, disposed to project into the insertion chamber, extending to one end side from the base portion;
• a lead portion, one end side of the base portion bent and extending toward a bottom surface side of the housing, further bent to extend in parallel to the contact-connecting portion in a direction opposite to the contact-connecting portion, solder-bonded to a surface of the printed circuit board;
• and
• locking means that mutually engage the contact base portion and the housing so that the contact does not move in an insertion direction to the contact insertion hole or a reverse direction;
• and
• the locking means swingably holds the contact base portion inside the contact insertion hole so that lead portions approach and separate from the printed circuit board surface.
