Abstract
A connector including a plurality of electrically conducting contacts and fitted to another connector, the connector includes: a fixing insulator having a frame shape; a plurality of metal fittings that are disposed at both ends of the fixing insulator in a contact array direction in which the contacts are arrayed, and that are provided inside the fixing insulator; and a movable insulator that is disposed inside the fixing insulator, that is connected to the fixing insulator through elastic deformation portions of the contacts, and that is movable at least in a direction perpendicular to a fitting direction of the fitting with the other connector by elastic deformation of the elastic deformation portions, both ends of the movable insulator in the contact array direction facing the respective metal fittings.

A connector including a plurality of electrically conducting contacts and fitted to another connector, said connector comprising:
- a fixing insulator having a frame shape;
- a plurality of metal fittings that are disposed at both ends of said fixing insulator in a contact array direction in which said contacts are arrayed, and that are provided inside said fixing insulator;
- and
- a movable insulator that is disposed inside said fixing insulator, that is connected to said fixing insulator through elastic deformation portions of said contacts, and that is movable at least in a direction perpendicular to a fitting direction of said fitting to said other connector by elastic deformation of said elastic deformation portions, both ends of said movable insulator in said contact array direction, in which said contacts are arrayed, being disposed under and facing said respective metal fittings,
- wherein each of the plurality of metal fittings is disposed between said fixing insulator and said movable insulator in said fitting direction of said fitting to said other connector.
