Claim Text:
1. A contact comprising a pair of conductive members and a biasing member attached between the pair of conductive members and biasing the pair of conductive members toward each other, the contact adapted to be connected to a connection object inserted between the pair of conductive members by holding the connection object therebetween, wherein the pair of conductive members each has a base portion and an attaching portion formed at the base portion and attached with the biasing member, wherein the base portion of one of the conductive members and the base portion of the other of the conductive members are disposed spaced apart from each other, wherein at least one of the pair of conductive members has a support portion extending from the base portion toward the other of the conductive members and abutting against the other of the conductive members to support the other of the conductive members, wherein the pair of conductive members each has a first contact portion for contact with the connection object and a second contact portion for contact with another connection object, the second contact portion formed on a side opposite to the first contact portion with respect to the attaching portion, wherein the first contact portion of one of the conductive members and the first contact portion of the other of the conductive members face each other in a biasing direction of the biasing member, and are biased by the biasing member toward each other, and wherein the second contact portion of one of the conductive members and the second contact portion of the other of the conductive members face each other in the biasing direction, and are biased by the biasing member toward each other.
