Claim:
1. A magnetic connector for use in establishing connection of a connection object in which a plurality of contact patterns are arranged in an arrangement direction on a base member having flexibility, comprising: a connector body including a magnet of flat plate shape which has a side edge extending in the arrangement direction; a plurality of connection terminals that are arranged along the side edge of the magnet and fixed on the connector body so as to correspond to the plurality of contact patterns of the connection object; and a plurality of attracted members that are formed of magnetic substance, are arranged and fixed on the base member of the connection object and are, via the connection object on which the plurality of contact patterns are arranged to face the plurality of connection terminals, attracted toward the connector body due to magnetic force whereby the plurality of contact patterns are pressed against the plurality of connection terminals and thereby connected to the plurality of connection terminals; wherein each of the plurality of connection terminals has a step as it crosses the side edge of the magnet so as to extend along the side edge of the magnet.
