PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a rotating connector capable of simplifying its configuration.SOLUTION: A rotating connector 1 comprises a stator 8, a rotator 9 relatively rotating to the stator 8, and an electric connection part 24 for securing electric connection between the stator 8 and the rotator 9. The electric connection part 24 is composed of a stretchable conductor, and one end of the electric connection part is connected to a connector 27 of the stator 8, and the other end is connected to a connector 29 of the rotator 9. The electric connection part 24, for example, is composed of an expansion wire, a curl cord, a spiral FPC (flexible substrate), an elastic wire harness or the like.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】構成を簡素化することができる回転コネクタを提供する。【解決手段】回転コネクタ１は、ステータ８と、このステータ８に対して相対回動するロテータ９と、ステータ８及びロテータ９の間の電気接続を確保する電気接続部２４とを備える。電気接続部２４は、伸縮可能な導体からなり、一端がステータ８のコネクタ２７に接続され、他端がロテータ９のコネクタ２９に接続される。電気接続部２４は、例えば伸縮ワイヤ、カールコード、螺旋状のＦＰＣ（フレキシブル基板）、伸縮するワイヤーハーネスなどからなる。【選択図】図３
