ABSTRACT:
There is provided a connector which is capable of routing a flat cable in a desired arbitrary direction and at the same time preventing the flat cable from being broken. A concave portion is formed in a housing, and a convex portion is formed on a cable-holding member for being slidably fitted in the concave portion. Slits are formed in the concave portion, and projections to be engaged with the slits are formed on the cable-holding member. Thus, directions of rotations of the cable-holding member are restricted such that the cable-holding member can rotate only about a first axis extending in a direction of width of the flat cable and a second axis orthogonal to the first axis and extending in a direction of insertion of the flat cable.
