Abstract

The latching metallic piece (12) has a lever-like arm (20) that extends in the direction of receiving the flat-type cable C. The lever-like arm (20) has a latching claw (20A) at one end, a fulcrum section (22) at the middle point, and an extending section at the other end. A pressuring member (14) has a restricting section that does not contact with the extending section (20B) of the latching metallic piece (12) at the open position, and that prevents the displacement of the extending section at the closed position. When the pressuring member is at the open position, the lever-like arm (20) is in the state that it can be freely displaced so as to allow insertion/removal of the flat-type cable. When the pressuring member is at the closed position, the displacement of the lever-like arm relative to the latching section in the direction that increases the latching of the latching claw (20A) is prevented, and the displacement of the lever-like arm in the direction that reduces the latching is prevented.
