ABSTRACT:
Pins are arranged on the upper surface of a rotary case of a rotary connector for electrically connecting the steering wheel and the steering column of a vehicle by a flexible flat cable, while the steering wheel is provided on the lower surface thereof with coupling holes for respectively receiving a corresponding pin in order to securely hold the rotary case. Each of the pins is provided with an elastic silicon rubber cap. The elastic cap comprises a cylindrical main body and a plurality of elastic members extending longitudinally along the axis of the cylindrical section. When viewed from above, the elastic members show an arcuately curved and tapered profile projecting from the base toward the tip.
