Abstract
An adaptable liquid connector structure includes a case, an intermediate member and a liquid connector main body. The case is a hollow frame. The intermediate member is located in the case and includes an opening formed at a front area thereof for mounting the liquid connector main body therein, a locating bore located below the opening, and a plurality of elastic elements mounted on outer sides and a rear side of thereof. The intermediate member is supported by the elastic elements to suspend in the case and the elastic elements absorb assembly tolerance of the adaptable liquid connector structure, such that the liquid connector main body mounted therein is allowed for a positional floating adjustment in and relative to the case upward, downward, leftward and rightward to be smoothly, correctly and securely connected to an adaptor connector.
