Connector which can be simplified in structure of an end portion in a card inserting/removing direction

Abstract

A conductive contact (1) is coupled to an insulator (7) for receiving a first object to be movable in a first direction (X). The contact has a frame portion (1c) which defines an opening (1e) extending in the first direction and a second direction (Y) perpendicular to the first direction and which is fixed to the insulator. A spring portion (1b) extends from the frame portion to face the opening in a third direction (Z) perpendicular to the first and the second directions. The spring portion has a contacting portion (1a) to be brought into contact with the first object. A terminal portion (1d) extends outward from the frame portion to be brought into contact with a second object. The terminal portion has a portion extending in the second direction and exposed from the insulator.
