Connector

A connector comprising:

• a plug contact having a tubular shape and conductivity, the plug contact including a recessed portion extending along a fitting axis;
• and
• an inner contact having conductivity, the inner contact being inserted in the recessed portion and composed of a bent wire spring,
• wherein the inner contact includes a contact portion that is elastically displaceable in a direction orthogonal to the fitting axis and makes contact with the plug contact in the recessed portion, and a pressing portion that is elastically displaceable in the direction orthogonal to the fitting axis and is disposed in the recessed portion, and
• wherein part of a connection object of sheet shape having a flexible conductor exposed on at least one surface of the connection object is sandwiched between the pressing portion and an inner surface of the recessed portion in the direction orthogonal to the fitting axis, the inner surface of the recessed portion makes contact with a front surface of the connection object, and the pressing portion makes contact with a rear surface of the connection object, whereby the plug contact is electrically connected to the flexible conductor directly when the flexible conductor is exposed on the front surface of the connection object, and the plug contact is electrically connected to the flexible conductor via the inner contact when the flexible conductor is exposed on the rear surface of the connection object.
