Abstract
Provided is a floating connector that maintains the stability of electrical connections and achieves size reduction. A floating connector includes a relay connector and a first connector. The relay connector includes a first terminal having a plurality of contact spring parts, and the plurality of contact spring parts are arranged in a circumferential direction of the first terminal. The first connector includes a second terminal where a tubular part is formed, and a spherical part is formed an inner periphery of the tubular part. The plurality of contact spring parts come into contact with the spherical part in a state of being inserted into the tubular part of the second terminal. a distance from a center of the spherical part to a contact part between each of the contact spring parts and the spherical part of the second terminal is the same.
