Abstract:
1. A connector comprising: a connector main body enabling a flexible flat connection object to be inserted therein, the connection object having two surfaces opposing each other in a thickness direction of the connection object, first and second contacts configured to be brought into contact with one of the two surfaces of the connection object, a pressing member configured to bring the connection object into press-contact with the first and second contacts by being rotated in a predetermined rotation direction, such that contact positions between the connection object and the first and second contacts are different from each other in an insertion/extraction direction of the connection object, a pressing plate which is provided to be positioned on a side of the other of the two surfaces of the connection object, wherein, when the pressing member is rotated in the rotation direction, the pressing plate is brought into surface contact with the other surface of the connection object while being pressed by the pressing member, and thereby brings the surface of the connection object into press-contact with the first and second contacts, and wherein the pressing plate is formed to press at least a range including the contact positions between the connection object and the first and second contacts from the side of the other surface of the connection object.
