Abstract
An electronic connector includes a cover, a connector body, and an aligning body. The cover defines an opening therein. The connector body partially extends through the opening, and defines an interspace between the cover and the connector body so the connector body is capable of swaying in the opening. The aligning body includes a top portion secured to the connector body, and two supporting legs arranged at two opposite sides of the top portion to support the connector body. The aligning body is swayable to vary the distance of the two opposite sides of the top portion from the cover along the sway directions that are inclined towards the two opposite sides of the top portion.
