ABSTRACT:
In a connector for connecting a pair of connection objects (60) having electroconductive inner surfaces or sockets (63). A long pin contact (10) is made of an electroconductive elastic material. Opposite ends of the pin contact are brought into a press contact with the inner surfaces or sockets (63), with a resulting elastic deformation of a longitudinal intermediate portion of the pin contact. The connection objects are opposite to each other in a first direction (Y) and have a relative position changeable between a first and a second position in a second direction (X) which is perpendicular to the first direction. Before the connection is carried out, the opposite ends of the pin are inserted into opposed spaces, respectively. The opposite ends are loosely fitted in the spaces when the relative position is the first position. When the relative position is changed from the first position to the second position, each of the opposite ends is brought into a press contact in first and the second directions with each of two points.
