ABSTRACT:
A connector with a fitting adjustment mechanism includes a female or a male connector fitted to a mating connector, a first frame which surrounds the connector and a second frame which surrounds the first frame. The connector has a first mechanism for enabling step-by-step displacement of the connector with respect to the first frame along an X or Y direction within a plane substantially perpendicular to the fitting direction of the connectors, and a second mechanism for enabling step-by-step displacement of the first frame with respect to the second frame along the direction perpendicular to the displaceable direction of the connector.
The first mechanism has protrusions on each of the opposite surfaces of the connector and a plurality of recesses provided on each of the opposite inner surfaces of the first frame with which the protrusions are engaged. The second mechanism also has protrusions on each of the outer opposite surfaces of the first frame and a plurality of recesses with which the protrusions are engaged provided on the inner surfaces of the second frame.
