Hybrid connector and cable with said connector
[Problem] To provide a hybrid connector and a cable with the connector which correct a positional error of connector units and enable to connect connectors when they are connected and even if there is a small positional error of the connection unit. [Solving Means] A hybrid connector holds plural connector units 2 a to 4 b in a common connector housing 5 a , 5 b . Each of the plural connector units is held individually movably in a direction (XY) orthogonal to an axial direction (Z) of connection. The connector unit is preferably movably held through a holding member 18 formed by an elastic matter. Front edges at the fitting start of the plural connector units 2 a to 4 b are tapered, and the connector units move along tapered portions in the connection fitting time. The plural connector units may be different in front-edge fitting start position along a connecting direction.
1. A hybrid connector which holds a plurality of connector units in a common connector housing, the plurality of connector units being different in front-edge fitting start position along a connecting direction, such that one of the plurality of connector units having a largest protruding amount being held in a fixed manner, and each of the other ones of the plurality of connector units being held in the common connector housing individually movably in a direction orthogonal to an axial direction of connection.
2. The hybrid connector according to claim 1 , wherein the connector unit is movably held through a holding member formed by an elastic matter.
3. The hybrid connector according to claim 1 , wherein a front edge of one of the connector units is tapered and moves along a tapered portion in a connection fitting time.
4. A composite cable to which the hybrid connector according to claim 1 is attached, wherein a plurality of cables corresponding to the respective connector units are assembled and integrated.
