Patent attributes
A floating connector comprises a movable housing, a regulating member and a plurality of contacts. Each of the contacts is made of a single metal plate. Each of the contacts has a fixed portion, a regulated portion, a held portion, an extending portion, a contact portion and a coupling portion. The coupling portion is resiliently deformable. The movable housing is movable within a predetermined range in a plane perpendicular to an up-down direction by the resilient deformation of the coupling portion. The coupling portion has a first portion, a second portion and a bent portion. Each of the first portion and second portion has a principal surface. The principal surface of the first portion faces in a first direction. The principal surface of the second portion faces in a second direction. The first direction and the second direction are different from each other.
