Abstract
A first connector is fluid-tightly fitted with a second connector through an opening of a mounting wall. The first connector includes a cylindrical spacer fitted into the opening, and a housing having a support part and a housing body. The support part is mounted to a first surface of the mounting wall while being able to be displaced along a plane perpendicular to a connector fitting direction of the first and second connectors. The housing body has a leading end which is inserted in the opening with a clearance. A first ring-shaped seal member is interposed between the opening and the spacer, a second ring-shaped seal member is interposed between the spacer and the support part in the connector fitting direction, and a third ring-shaped seal member is interposed between the second connector and the leading end.
