<p>In a connector in which a conductive contacting portion (33) is supported by a spring portion (26) to be elastically movable in a first direction (28) and a second direction (29) perpendicular to the first direction, the contacting portion has a contact point (27) maintained in a specific condition such that the contact point is offset from a predetermined position in the second direction. The contact point is formed at its one end to be brought into contact with a mating object (17) in the first direction at the predetermined position. When the contacting portion is moved in a direction opposite to the first direction, the specific condition is released. <IMAGE></p>
