Abstract
Occurrence of contact point slide due to vibration is suppressed in a movable connector that has a floating function from a technical approach that is different from the related art. A movable connector includes a displacement support member that includes a flexible support portion that is elastically deformable in a fitting direction, in which a mating connector is to be fitted with a movable housing, with the flexible support portion abutting against the movable housing. The movable housing includes a bottom wall, against which the mating connector abuts in the fitting direction. The movable housing is displaced in the fitting direction with the flexible support portion elastically deformed in the fitting direction when the mating connector presses the bottom wall in the fitting direction.
Claims7
A movable connector comprising:
- a first housing to be fixed to a first substrate;
- a second housing to be fitted with a connection object;
- and
- a terminal that includes a movable portion that supports the first housing and the second housing so as to be relatively displaceable and a contact portion that makes conductive contact with the connection object,
- wherein the movable connector further includes a displacement support member that includes a flexible support portion that is elastically deformable in a fitting direction, in which the connection object is to be fitted with the second housing, with the flexible support portion abutting against the second housing,
- the second housing includes a connection object abutment portion, against which the connection object abuts in the fitting direction, and
- the second housing is displaced in the fitting direction with the flexible support portion elastically deformed in the fitting direction when the connection object presses the connection object abutment portion in the fitting direction.
