Abstract

The present invention provides technology with high production efficiency for an elastic connector that electrically connects two connection target members. The technology enables an initial product to be quickly completed with a low initial cost, in correspondence to any distance between the connection target members and any angle formed between them. An elastic connector was obtained by forming a major-axis columnar body, in which a conductive part was formed by cross linking and hardening (solidifying) conductive members inside a tube-like part formed of an insulative rubber tube, and then cutting the major-axis columnar body with a cutting blade along a cutting line, which is in a direction crossing the axis of the major-axis columnar body, to shorten the major-axis columnar body. This elastic connector eliminates the need to create a new metal mold in its manufacturing. When a length to which the major-axis columnar body is cut is appropriately changed and it is cut to that length, an elastic connector that suit any distance between the connection target members and any angle formed between them can be obtained.
