Abstract

A connector with a tolerance module includes a socket and a plug adapted to the socket, wherein the socket includes a first housing, the plug includes a tolerance module and a third housing, the tolerance module includes a second housing, the second housing includes second contact members, the second housing is movably arranged on the third housing in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the connector, and the second contact members are floatingly assembled in the second housing to enable displacement in the direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the connector. The second housing only generates translational motion without displacement when the connector is inserted. The tolerance of the plug and the socket is realized by the floating assembly of the second contact members in the second housing.
