Conductive connecting member

A conductive connector for electrically connecting a first connection target and a second connection target, comprising:

• a first terminal to be electrically connected to the first connection target;
• a second terminal to be electrically connected to the second connection target;
• and
• a braided portion for electrically connecting the first and second terminals,
• wherein:
• the braided portion is a member formed by braiding a plurality of metal stands each other and includes a first fixing portion to be fixed and electrically connected to the first terminal, a second fixing portion to be fixed and electrically connected to the second terminal and an intermediate portion serving as a part of the braided portion between the first and second fixing portions,
• the first fixing portion is overlapped on the first terminal,
• if a straight line passing through a center of an end part of the first fixing portion adjacent to the intermediate portion and a center of an end part of the second fixing portion adjacent to the intermediate portion is assumed as a virtual line and an overlapping direction of the first fixing portion and the first terminal when viewed from a direction along the virtual line is assumed as a thickness direction,
• the virtual line penetrates through entirety of the intermediate portion in the intermediate portion,
• a thickness of the intermediate portion in the thickness direction is larger than a thickness of the first fixing portion in the thickness direction and larger than a thickness of the second fixing portion in the thickness direction, and
• the intermediate portion has a rigidity such that the intermediate portion retains an own shape in a natural state where no external force is applied and when the first fixing portion is lifted up with the second fixing portion floating in the air, a positional relationship of the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion is maintained constant, and
• the intermediate portion is deformed to allow a relative movement of the second terminal with respect to the first terminal when an external force for relatively changing a position of the second terminal with respect to the first terminal is applied.
