CONTACT, CONNECTOR, AND CONNECTING APPARATUS

摘要

Provided is a contact that, in the state where either one of connection objects is inserted into the contact, makes smooth the relative movement between the contact and the connection object and maintains a good surface state of the contact and the connection object. A distance (W1) between first contact portions (53) is set smaller than a thickness (T1) of a first connection object (91) in the state where neither of the first connection object (91) and a second connection object (83) is inserted into a contact (40). A distance (W2) between second contact portions (54) is set greater than a thickness (T2) of the second connection object (83) in the state where neither of the first connection object (91) and the second connection object (83) is inserted into the contact (40). When the first connection object (91) is inserted between the first contact portions (53), a pair of conductive portions (50) are relatively moved to shorten the distance between the second contact portions (54) so that the second connection object (83) is held between the second contact portions (54).
