Abstract
A connecting member has a slider with rotation shafts and a contact combined with the slider. The contact has contact portions for connection to a connection object and pressing portions connected to the contact portions, respectively. By rotating the slider about the rotation shafts to press the pressing portions, the contact portions are displaced to be connected to the connection object. It may be configured to press the pressing portions by moving the slider in a straight or curved line. Further, it may be configured that the slider presses the pressing portions to thereby displace the contact portions in directions away from the connection object.
