Abstract: To provide a connector that is less deformable even under a high contact pressure. A connector includes a housing having a fitting chamber, and a terminal that comes into conductive contact with a pin terminal in the fitting chamber. The terminal includes a fixing base fixed to the housing, a contact member extending from the fixing base and pressed against the pin terminal, and right and left press-supporting members extending from the fixing base. The press-supporting members include respective contact-receiving parts that face the contact member in the fitting chamber and are positioned side by side in a direction intersecting a direction of insertion of the pin terminal into the fitting chamber. Since the pressed pin terminal is received by the plurality of contact-receiving parts, the pressing force can be dispersed therebetween. Hence, the deformation of the contact member and the contact-receiving parts can be prevented.
