Embodiment FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the FPC of the present invention. First
In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a contact, which is formed by peeling off an end of one side (the insulating film 4 in FIG. 1) of an FPC in which both sides of a conductor 6 are sandwiched between insulating films 4 and 5 to form a contact. FPC8
Because of its structure, it is easily rolled, and the strength of the contact 1 portion is insufficient, so that the contact cannot be inserted into the connector. Therefore, the contact reinforcing plate 7 is attached for reinforcement. As shown in FIG. 1, on both sides of the contact reinforcing plate 7, there are semicircular projections protruding outward due to the width of the insulating films 4 and 5, and the insertion assisting holes 2 and 3 is provided.
