Abstract
A connector has a housing, an insertion slot into which a connection target is inserted, an actuator and a contact. The actuator has a pusher. The actuator is held on the housing so as to be turnable between an open position and a close position. The actuator allows the connection target to be inserted into the insertion slot when the actuator is positioned at the open position. The pusher pushes the inserted connection target when the actuator is positioned at the close position. The contact is held by the housing. The contact includes a spring section and a supported section supported by the spring section. The supported section includes a press section and a contacting section. The press section presses the pusher against the inserted connection target and receives, from the pusher, a reaction force directed away from the connection target when the actuator is located at the close position. The contacting section is brought into contact with the connection target when the press section is moved away from the connection target by the reaction force.
