In a connector for connecting first and second connection objects faced to each other, a conductive contact includes a holding portion held by an insulator, a first spring portion, and a second spring portion connected to the first spring portion. The first spring portion extends from the holding portion in one direction and has a first contacting portion to be connected to the first connection object. The second spring portion extends in the other direction opposite to the one direction and has a free end provided with a second contacting portion to be connected to the second connection object.

What is claimed is: 1. A connector for connecting first and second connection objects facing and parallel to each other, the connector comprising: an insulator; and a conductive contact coupled to the insulator, the contact comprising: a holding portion held by the insulator; a first spring portion extending from the holding portion towards one direction and including a first contacting portion to be connected to the first connection object and an intermediate portion between the first contacting portion and the holding portion; and a second spring portion extending from the intermediate portion towards the holding portion and in the other direction opposite to the one direction and having a free end provided with a second contacting portion to be connected to the second connection object, wherein the contact comprises a plate-like member, the first spring portion having an opening, the second spring portion extending through the opening and intersecting the first spring portion, the insulator including a peripheral portion and a positioning portion which protrudes outwardly from the peripheral portion in a direction intersecting with the one and the other directions. 2. The connector according to claim 1, wherein the first spring portion has a free end provided with the first contacting portion and the intermediate portion is spaced from the free end. 3. The connector according to claim 1, wherein the holding portion extends from the insulator and has an extending end, the first and the second spring portions being connected to the extending end. 4. The connector according to claim 3, wherein the holding portion extends in a direction intersecting with the one and the other directions. 5. The connector according to claim 1, wherein the second spring portion extends from a free end of the first spring portion. 6. The connector according to claim 5, wherein the contact is made by a plate-like material to form the first and the second spring portions. 7. The connector according to claim 6, wherein the first spring portion has a cutout portion, the second spring portion extending through the cutout and intersecting with the first spring portion. 8. The connector according to claim 1, wherein the first and the second contacting portions are located on a single straight line substantially parallel to the one and the other directions. 9. The connector according to claim 1, wherein each of the first and the second contacting portions has a contacting surface to be contacted with the connection object, the contacting surface having an arcuate section. 10. The connector according to claim 1, wherein the insulator is provided with a flat sucked surface formed on one surface thereof.
