A cable connecting device is disclosed for detachably, electrically connecting a flexible cable protected by a flexible electric wire tube to a wiring in a component movable within a predetermined scope. The device includes a first cylindrical member enclosingly supporting the first connector with its end portion being exposed connected to an electric circuit in the component; a second connector connected to the first connector and the cable; a second cylindrical member enclosingly supporting the second connector except the end portion and adapted to abut at the end face thereof against the end face of the first cylindrical member when the second connector is coupled to the first connector; a first tightening tubular member threadably coupled to the threaded portion of the first cylindrical member when the first and second cylindrical members are in abutting contact with each other; a first seal member interposed between opposing outer peripheral end faces of the first and second connectors; a second seal member interposed between the inner periphery of the second cylindrical member and the outer periphery of cable enclosed by the second cylindrical member to seal a space formed by the both members at a position of the end portion of the second cylindrical member on the cable's side; and second tightening tubular member engageable with a member on the cable's side and adapted to push the second seal member between the inner periphery of the second cylindrical member and the outer periphery of the cable when the second cylindrical member is threadably coupled.
