Connector for supporting electronic device

A connector comprising:

• a case comprising an opposing surface facing an external device;
• and
• a plurality of flat plate-shaped contacts built in the case,
• wherein the case includes:
• first openings which are formed at the opposing surface and through which contact points of the plurality of flat plate-shaped contacts to be connected to connection terminals of the external device protrude from the opposing surface,
• a receiver configured to receive a connector for an external connection, and
• a holder configured to hold the plurality of flat plate-shaped contacts, and
• each of the plurality of flat plate-shaped contacts includes:
• a contact point which is disposed in the first opening and which is to contact with the connection terminal of the external device,
• an elastic portion which is disposed in the case and which moves the contact point in a substantially perpendicular direction relative to the opposing surface,
• a contact portion which is disposed in the receiver and which is to contact with a connection terminal of the connector for external connection,
• a held portion which is formed between the elastic portion and the contact portion and which is held by the holder in the case, and
• a connection portion which is formed between the elastic portion and the contact portion and which connects between the contact point and the contact portion in the case,
• wherein the connection portion includes an arrangement order changer configured to, when an arrangement order of the contact points of the plurality of flat plate-shaped contacts and an arrangement order of the contact portions of the plurality of flat plate-shaped contacts are different from each other, change the arrangement order of the contact points of the plurality of flat plate-shaped contacts.
