However, in the case of the conventional connector 1 described above, the connector main body 1a and the locking member 3 are separately prepared, and when the connector 1 is constructed, the locking member 3 is attached to the connector main body 1a. Since the connector 1 needs to be press-fitted and fixed, there is a problem that it takes time and effort to manufacture the connector 1.

[0007] Further, the locking member 3 varies in size. For example, as shown in FIG. 8A, the length D2 of the straight portion 3a of the locking member 3 is shorter than the depth D1 of the through hole 6. In the case (shown by a solid line in FIG. 8), the tongue-shaped portion 3b stops in the through-hole 6, or the length D2 of the linear portion 3a of the locking member 3 is larger than the depth D1 of the through-hole 6. If it is too long (indicated by a broken line in FIG. 8), the tongue-shaped portion 3b
3b-1 is the open end 6 of the wall 6a of the through hole 6.
a-1 (see FIG. 8B), the locking member 3 does not lock to the wall 6a of the through hole 6, and the connector 1 is not stably fixed to the board. As shown in FIG. 8B, there is a problem that the connector 1 floats due to an external force and the contact 2 and the connection electrode 5 are separated from each other. In this case, it is conceivable to push down the connector 1 using an appropriate jig as shown in FIG. 8C, but this is not preferable because it leads to an increase in man-hours.

Also, a set of locking members 3 is locked in one through hole 6, so that the connector 1 is supported at one of six through holes in the short direction of the connector 1. Therefore, the weight of the connector 1 on the side opposite to the side on which the contact 2 is provided generates a moment for moving the opposite side downward with the supporting point (through hole 6) as a fulcrum, thereby causing the contact 2 and the connection electrode 5 to move downward. There is also a problem that it is easy to separate from.
