Plug connector with a movable housing including a fitting portion inserted and fitted to a fitting portion of a mating connector

1. A connector, comprising:

a stationary housing to be mounted to a connection object;

a movable housing configured to move relative to the stationary housing; and

at least one pair of contacts arranged apart from each other in a common plane so as to correspond to each other,

each of the at least one pair of contacts including:

a first held portion fixed to the stationary housing;

a second held portion fixed to the movable housing; and

an elastic deformation portion configured to couple the first held portion and the second held portion,

the elastic deformation portion of the each of the at least one pair of contacts including a projecting portion that projects in an approaching direction, which is a direction of approaching the elastic deformation portion of another contact of the at least one pair of contacts, or in a separating direction, which is a direction opposite to the approaching direction.

2. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein the projecting portion of the each of the at least one pair of contacts is configured to project in the approaching direction.

3. The connector according to claim 2 , wherein the projecting portions of the at least one pair of contacts are arranged at different positions in a direction intersecting the approaching direction.

4. The connector according to claim 3 , wherein the projecting portions of the at least one pair of contacts include overlapping portions as viewed in one direction intersecting the approaching direction.

5. The connector according to claim 2 ,

wherein the elastic deformation portion of each of the at least one pair of contacts further includes:

a first extending portion, which extends linearly and has one end continuous with the first held portion, and another end continuous with one end of the projecting portion; and

a second extending portion, which has one end continuous with another end of the projecting portion, and extends in one direction intersecting the approaching direction, and

wherein the projecting portion includes:

a first bending portion, which has one end continuous with the another end of the first extending portion, and bends in the approaching direction;

a first arm portion, which has one end continuous with another end of the first bending portion, and extends in the approaching direction;

a second bending portion, which has one end continuous with another end of the first arm portion, and bends in one direction intersecting the approaching direction;

a coupling portion, which has one end continuous with another end of the second bending portion, and extends in one direction intersecting the approaching direction;

a third bending portion, which has one end continuous with another end of the coupling portion, and bends in the separating direction;

a second arm portion, which has one end continuous with another end of the third bending portion, and extends in the separating direction; and

a fourth bending portion, which bends in one direction intersecting the approaching direction, and has one end continuous with another end of the second arm portion, and another end continuous with the one end of the second extending portion.

6. The connector according to claim 5 ,

wherein the stationary housing includes a mounting surface portion to be mounted to the connection object, and

wherein the first extending portion and the second extending portion each extending in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface portion.

7. The A connector according to claim 6 , wherein the movable housing includes a fitting portion fitted to a mating connector by being inserted into the mating connector along a direction parallel to the mounting surface portion.

8. The connector according to claim 1 ,

wherein the stationary housing includes a mounting surface portion to be mounted to the connection object, and

wherein the approaching direction and the separating direction are parallel to the mounting surface portion.

9. The connector according to claim 8 , wherein the movable housing includes a fitting portion fitted to a mating connector by being inserted into the mating connector along a direction parallel to the mounting surface portion.
