ABSTRACT:
A movable connector provided with a connector housing to be movably attached to an instrument panel. In the movable connector, a pipe portion of an inner flange is slidably fitted to the outside of a flange fitting portion projected from the connector housing in a connector-fitting direction. A flange portion of the inner flange is supported movably along a surface of the instrument panel by an outer flange. A gap between the pipe portion and the outer flange is filled with a first region of an elastic body. Further, a gap between an end surface of the pipe portion and an end surface of the connector housing is filled with a second region of the elastic body. The force acting on the connector housing in a direction perpendicular to the connector-fitting direction is absorbed by elastic deformation of the first region, and the force in the connector-fitting direction is absorbed by elastic deformation of the second region.
