Patent ID: 6848925

Claim:
A connector assembling construction for connecting a first connector on a module and a second connector on a body along a connecting direction as the module is assembled with the body in an automotive vehicle, comprising: a floating mechanism to support at least one of the first and second connectors for displacement in a floating direction intersecting the connector connecting direction; and the floating mechanism comprising restricting means for restricting a displacement of the connector that is supported on the floating mechanism when the connectors are unconnected and canceling the restriction on displacement of the connector that is supported on the floating mechanism after connection of the first and second connectors is started, the restricting means comprising contacts on the floating mechanism and on the connector that is supported on the floating mechanism for contacting one another when the first and second connectors are unconnected and thereby restricting movement of the connector that is supported on the floating connector in the floating direction and relative to the floating mechanism, the contacts on the floating mechanism and on the connector that is supported on the floating mechanism being disengaged as the connection of the connectors progresses so that the connector that is supported on the floating mechanism can displace in the floating direction relative to the floating mechanism.
