Abstract
A contact terminal has a support section that holds an elastically deformable axle so as to rotate about the axle with an elastic deformation of the axle, and a contact section extending from the support section. The contact section has, at a distal end thereof, a contact portion configured to make a contact with a testing element. The contact section deforms elastically while rotating with the support section by the contact of the contact portion with the testing element.
