A connector for a jack includes four contacts of first, second, third and fourth contacts each having a contact portion and a connection portion, and a housing, to exchange signals and to ascertain whether a plug connector has been inserted into the connector. The third contact substantially U-shaped in cross-section includes a contact piece having a first contact part adapted to contact the plug connector, and a spring piece having an elasticity facing to the contact piece and provided by forming a U-shaped slit in a part of the third contact at a location opposite to the contact piece. When the plug connector is inserted into the connector, the plug connector pushes the first contact part of the contact piece to cause the contact piece to be displaced to the spring piece so that the contact piece pushes the spring piece to cause the spring piece to be displaced toward the housing and at the same time the spring piece pushes the contact piece with each other with the aid of its elasticity. The connector achieves a reliable holding force for the plug connector without scratching it.

A connector for memory cards includes a connector body having side walls on both sides and a rear wall. The side walls are formed over their length with card receiving portions to meet shapes of side edges and the number of the memory cards to be used. The connector further includes card identification terminals made of a springy metal strip arranged in a plurality of steps in inner surface of one of the side walls, identification tabs arranged spaced from the card identification terminal prior to insertion of a card, for identifying an existence of an inserted card with the aid of the contact between the inserted card and the card identification terminal, and terminals suitably arranged on the rear wall for writing electronic information into cards and reading stored information from cards. Each of the card identification terminals includes a contact portion to contact the card, a fixing portion to be fixed to the connector body, and a connection portion to be connected to a board and further includes an engaging portion on an extension of the contact portion, which engaging portion engages an anchoring portion of each of insertion grooves formed in the connector body.

An electrical connector includes a receptacle connector and a plug connector. A first fixture and a second fixture are each arranged on at least one end in the longitudinal direction of the receptacle and plug connectors, respectively. The first and second fixtures each have connection portions to be connected to a respective substrate. The first and second fixtures include at least three engaging portions and at least three anchoring portions, respectively. The engaging portions and anchoring portions are adapted to engage each other. At least one set of the engaging and anchoring portions engaged each other is caused to be in electrical continuity to use as a power supply connection. The electrical connector thus constructed is capable of sufficiently withstand any accidental external force when being fitted, and is also capable of ensuring a power supply connection without using many terminals, while keeping narrower pitches of conductors, and miniaturization and reduced overall height of the electrical connector.

A misconnection-proof key comprises a substantially L-shaped block made of a hard metal including a short arm and a long arm intersecting with the short arm at right angles thereto. The long arm has at a substantially mid portion on its surface a removal preventing protrusion integrally formed therewith. A plurality of misconnection-proof keys thus constructed are used in a connector including an insulating block having a number of contacts, and a metal shell partly covering the insulating block on the side of contact portions of the contacts. The plurality of misconnection-proof keys are each inserted with the long arm into a slot formed at a predetermined position between the insulating block and the metal shell until the removal preventing protrusion is fitted in a removal preventing recess or aperture formed in the slot so that the short arm of the key extending outwardly of the slot. The connector is prevented from being connected to a wrong or improper connector not having notches corresponding to the outwardly extending short arms of the misconnection-proof keys.
