Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for mounting on site a connector on a coaxial cable.
- the invention particularly finds its application in the field of digital telecommunications.
- the links within a telecommunications network are made by cables and radio-relay systems.
- Radio-relay systems are point-to-point links using microwave waves in the lGHz-50GHz range as transmission media.
- a radio link makes it possible to establish a two-way communication between two terminal stations, the communication being able to pass through intermediate stations separated by approximately 50 kilometers from each other. Each station is then connected to a cable telecommunications network.
- the equipment of these stations essentially consists of an antenna and a transceiver.
- the antenna usually consists of a horn-shaped opening which radiates a wave carried by a waveguide, and one or more deflectors of generally parabolic shape.
- the radiant opening is always located at the focal point of the dish.
- the waveguide is connected by its other end to a transceiver located in a room near the antenna.
- the waveguide is a very expensive transmission medium. So to limit its length, the transceiver has been years directly installed on the antenna. The transceiver is now connected to the antenna by a short waveguide and to the wired telecommunications network by a cheaper coaxial cable than the waveguide.
- the coaxial cable is a high-frequency support consisting of an inner copper conductor surrounded by a concentric shield, copper or aluminum, in principle at ground potential. They are separated by a polyethylene dielectric. The cable is, moreover, covered with an insulating sheath.
- the connector allowing the connection between the cable and the transceiver is mounted once the cable is in place.
- the connector essentially comprises a core and a ferrule.
- the core is a hollow metal rod into which the central conductor of the coaxial cable is threaded and welded.
- the ferrule is a metal ring which is placed around the cable shield.
- the operations to be carried out on the coaxial cable when mounting a connector on the cable are essentially cutting and stripping operations of the insulating sheath of the cable. This cable preparation is followed by a step of positioning and soldering of the connector elements on the coaxial cable.
- Figures 1A and 1B illustrate the positioning of two types of connectors on coaxial cables of different diameters.
- a connector consisting of a core 1 and a ferrule 2 is mounted on a coaxial cable 3.
- Ports 5 and 6 are provided respectively in the core 1 and in the ferrule 2 for soldering the core 1 on the central conductor 4 of the coaxial cable 3 and the ferrule 2 on the shielding of this same coaxial cable 3.
- the connectors shown are of type N to the Figure 1A and type TNC in Figure 1B.
- the dimensions of the connector elements are different depending on the type of connector.
- the positioning of the core 1 on the coaxial cable 3 is marked by a dimension d in FIG. 1A and by a dimension d in FIG. 1B.
- the mounting of the connectors can sometimes be very delicate. Indeed, it is generally carried out on site, in windy places and in all weathers. In the event of maintenance, these unfavorable working conditions are further aggravated by the fact that it is customary to operate at night, when the network activity is reduced.
- An object of the invention is to provide ergonomic tools for mounting on site a connector on a coaxial cable on site.
- the invention consists of a device used for mounting on site a connector on a coaxial cable, characterized in that it comprises a portable clamp and adaptable to the diameter of the coaxial cable to block the coaxial cable.
- the pliers may have a cylindrical external shape of appropriate diameter. In a preferred embodiment, this diameter is about 4 centimeters. This clamp will then constitute a device making it easier to hold the end of a coaxial cable in one hand.
- another device for the operations of soldering the core and the ferrule of the connector, another device can be provided, characterized in that it comprises a clamp having at least one channel for receiving a coaxial cable as well as positioning means for placing in the assembly position on the coaxial cable of the connector elements.
- the clamp comprises two channels to each receive a coaxial cable of different diameter.
- fixing means for fixing the device at a point on the site ie for example on a pylon element.
- FIG. 3A to 3C respectively show a front view, a side view and a side view of a holding and positioning device of the end of a coaxial cable relative to a connector according to the invention.
- FIGS. 1A and 1B have been previously described in the preamble to the description.
- FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B are respectively an exploded view and a sectional view of a device 10 for handling a coaxial cable according to the invention. Because of their complementarity, these two figures will be described jointly.
- This device 10 is a portable clamp which adapts to the diameter of a cable by means of a cable clamp. It is composed of three elements: a female part 11, a male part 12 and a cable clamp 13.
- the female part 11 essentially comprises a cylindrical body whose diameter and the state of its external surface are studied for a good grip. The diameter of the cylindrical body is approximately 4 to 5 centimeters.
- This body is axially traversed by a bore 14 for receiving an end piece 15 of the male part 12.
- the bore 14 is extended by a channel 16 for the passage of a coaxial cable.
- the bore 14 is threaded while at its internal end, it ends in a conical bearing 17 making the border with the channel 16.
- the conical bearing 17 is intended to cooperate with the clamp cable 13.
- the cable clamp 13 slides like a piston into the bore 14 of the female part 11.
- the cable clamp 13 consists of a cylindrical ring 18 extended by a set of jaws 19 with conical ends cooperating with the conical bearing 17 of the female part 11.
- the male part 12 abuts against the cable clamp 13.
- the male part 12 consists of a cylindrical body of the same diameter and same external surface condition as the female part 11. This cylindrical body is extended by a threaded end piece 15 intended to be screwed into the threaded part of the bore 14 of the female part 11.
- the male part 12 is crossed axially by a channel 20 for the passage of a cable.
- the channel 20 is in the extension of the channel 16 of the female part 11.
- this tool for holding a coaxial cable is very simple. Firstly, the male part 12 is unscrewed from the female part 11 so that the set of jaws 19 is in an open position. In a second step, the coaxial cable is passed through the channel 20, the ring 18 and the channel 16, then the male part is screwed in. As the nozzle 15 progresses in the bore 14, the set of jaws 19 closes on the cable and blocks it.
- This tool significantly improves the handling of the coaxial cable. In particular, it allows gloves to be kept for stripping operations on the coaxial cable.
- FIGS. 3A to 3C are respectively a top view, a side view and a side view of a positioning device 21 according to the invention used for holding and positioning a coaxial cable and a connector for their assembly. As in FIGS. 2A and 2B, FIGS. 3A to 3C will be described jointly. For the sake of clarity, an element marked 39 is not shown in FIG. 3B. Furthermore, a coaxial cable provided with a connector is placed in the positioning device 21 to illustrate the use of the device.
- the positioning device 21 comprises a base 22 extended vertically on one side by a first edge 23 and on the opposite side by a second edge 24. The first edge 23 is surmounted by a clamping block 25 to form a clamp making it possible to block a coaxial cable 26.
- the clamp has two channels 27 and 28 for receiving the coaxial cables.
- Each channel consists of two grooves formed transversely in the surfaces opposite the edge 23 and the clamping block 25.
- the section of the different channels is adapted to different diameters of coaxial cable.
- a clamping screw 29 passes vertically through the block 25 and engages in the edge 23 to allow the coaxial cables 26 to be blocked in their respective channels.
- the base 22 also includes a reference plane 30 on which the coaxial cables 26 rest. This reference plane 30 is located in the extension of the channels 27 and 28 of the clamp and is delimited on one side by the edge 23 and on the other side by a groove 31.
- the groove 31 makes it possible to position the ferrule of the connector on the shielding of the coaxial cable previously cut and stripped.
- the width and depth of the groove 31 are studied to obtain optimal seating of the ferrule in the groove 31.
- a flange 32 of the groove 31 is slightly raised so that the dielectric of the coaxial cable abuts against this flange.
- the device 21 also comprises means for positioning and holding the core of the connector on the central conductor of the coaxial cable. This is why, the second edge 24 is crossed by two knurled screws 33 and 34 positioned respectively in the axis of the channels 27 and 28 of the clamp.
- the rod of the knurled screws is pierced axially near its free end to receive the core of the connector, the inner conductor of the coaxial cable having been previously threaded into the core of the connector.
- the length of the rod of the knurled screws depends on the type of connector that is just mounted on the coaxial cable.
- a stop 35 in the form of a hammer head is provided.
- the stop 35 then makes it possible to adjust the length of the rod of the screw 34 emerging from the edge 24.
- the stop 35 is produced so as to be able to move along the edge 24 and is held fixed to this edge by a knurled screw 36.
- Notches 37 on the edge 24 and a notch 38 on the stop 35 make it possible to perfectly position the stop 35 relative to the knurled screw 34.
- a support 39 is provided for adapting means for fixing the positioning device 21 to a pylon element.
- the fixing means can be, for example, vise grips if one seeks to immobilize the device 21 on an angle iron or clamps if one seeks to install it on a cylindrical tube.
