  • document US 4,178,054 discloses a connector according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to form a connector of the type mentioned in that by means of the use of simple and less components a lightweight and thus ponderekünstige mounting with optimum shielding and signal routing and a secure electrical connection of coaxial cables is possible.
  • the insulating body is provided in a partial region formed by longitudinal slots, outwardly facing tongues, that in the insulating a plurality of juxtaposed, different in diameter, central bores are provided that the tongue ends on their to the interior of the insulating body facing side are provided with conical or widening gradations that the center conductor of the coaxial cable is inserted into a receiving bore of the contact element, and that the insulating body is inserted into the sleeve-shaped male part, wherein the outwardly facing tongues are compressed and the gradations pressure on exercise the insulation of the middle conductor.
  • the connector with an insulating body which is inserted into a sleeve-shaped, metallic plug-in part, can accommodate an electrical contact element centrally and connects a central electrical center conductor of a coaxial cable with the contact element. Furthermore, it is advantageously provided initially to provide a strain relief for the central electrical center conductor and to achieve by means of crimping on the sleeve-shaped male part a further strain relief between the jacket of the coaxial cable and the male part. Trained as an elongated round body insulator has in its interior a plurality of stepped diameters, while formed by longitudinal slots outwardly facing tongues extending from a, by a circumferential annular groove, divided head part to the end of the insulator.
  • the differently stepped holes in the interior of the insulating body are preferably matched to the receiving outer diameter of the electrical contact element and the coaxial cable.
  • graduations are provided in the insulating body, which press into the insulation when the tongues are compressed.
  • this is advantageously provided with two spaced-apart thickenings, which are pressed against the wall of the inner bore of the insulating body.
  • a conical widening of the inner diameter is provided, but narrowing the compression of the tongues so that the inner wall of the insulating body rests directly in this area on the outer wall of the electrical contact element and thus exerts a pressure on the electrical center conductor.
  • an annular lamellae spring assembly with approximately 45 ° obliquely arranged with respect to the vertical slats firmly pressed into the front plug-in area of the male part.
  • the connector can be plugged on any matching mating connector as well as directly on a correspondingly provided circuit board.
  • Fig.1 is shown in a sectional view of a mounted connector 1.
  • an annularly arranged leaf spring 7 is initially provided in the region of the mating side 3, which is, however, preferably provided with slats 8 extending obliquely to the plug-in direction, but in this example has lamellae aligned in the insertion direction.
  • an insulating body 10 is inserted, in which a plug-side facing contact element 20 is inserted, which is provided with a counter to the mating side facing receiving bore 23 into which an electrical center conductor 34 of a coaxial cable 30 with a sheath 31 from the conductor connection side 4 of the connector is inserted.
  • the conductor connection side 4 of the tubular plug-in part is provided as a crimp connection 5, wherein the crimping acts in addition to the mechanical support of the coaxial cable on the underneath screen braid 32 and its shielding effect is transmitted to the electrically conductive male part and by means provided on the mating side 3 leaf spring 7 is again transferred to a mating connector or a direct connection to a suitably prepared circuit board.
  • Fig. 2 are shown in an exploded view of the individual components provided for the connector, wherein the selected representation simultaneously corresponds to a mounting order.
  • the plate spring 7 is already included in the sleeve-shaped male part 2.
  • the coaxial cable 30 is first prepared for assembly, which can be done by machine or by hand, with the connector 1, by first the outer sheath 31 removed in a certain length up to the underlying Ablegeflecht 32 and the Ablegeflecht bent back on the now more recent outer sheath becomes. Then the insulation 33, also called dielectric, is removed to the electrical center conductor 34 and the contact element 20 is pushed with the receiving opening 23 on the electrical center conductor.
  • the insulating body 10 made of an electrically insulating material with the spread tongues 13 is first pushed onto the contact element 20, wherein the contact element is first centered in the central bore 14 and further pushed to the stop, the contact element 20 with its tip 21 through the Through hole 15 protrudes in the insertion direction, while at the same time the tongues 13 completely cover the insulation 33 of the coaxial cable.
  • the sleeve-shaped male part 2 is pushed over the combination of insulator 10 and coaxial cable 30, wherein the still spread tongues 13 are gradually compressed by the male part 2 and thereby first clamp the contact element 20 and then the insulation 33 by means of gradations17, so that axially acting forces are directed from the coaxial cable to the connector and not to electrical center conductor.
  • a clamping effect is also achieved on the two raised thickenings 22 of the contact element and by the conical extension 16 of the bore 14 now located directly on the surface of the contact element in the region of the receiving opening 23 for the electrical center conductor 34. Finally, the sleeve of the male part 2 and the coaxial cable in the region of the Ablegeflechtes on the connection side 4 are crimped together.
  • Fig. 3a is shown in a sectional view of the insulator 10.
  • the insulating body has as a longitudinally shaped body of revolution, a head part 11 and of an annular groove 12 slightly outward, towards the opposite end, on spreading, separated by longitudinal slots 18 tongues 13.
  • a bore 14 with a through hole 15 and a conically widening portion 16 is provided inside.
  • the contact element 20 is inserted in the connector mounting, wherein the conically shaped tip of the contact element is pushed on the head side 11 in the insertion direction through the through hole 15.
  • the bore 14 is formed to receive the contact element 20 so that the thickenings 22 are first pressed against the inner wall of the insulating body 10 and then by compressing the tongues 13 during insertion of the insulating in the sleeve-shaped male part, the conical extension 16 on the wall of the Pressing contact element so that at the same time a pressure on the inserted in the receiving bore 23 electrical conductor 34 of the coaxial cable is exercised.
  • the provided on the inner walls of the tongues 13 gradations 17 press themselves when pushing the insulating in the sleeve-shaped Plug part 2 in the insulation 33, which is already a part of the tensile forces that can occur between coaxial cable and connector, is transmitted. The remaining tensile forces are absorbed by means of a crimping on the crimp connection 5 on the connection side 4 on the shield 32 and the outer jacket 31 located underneath.
  • a preferred embodiment of a leaf spring 7 is shown with slats 8 extending obliquely, which has the advantage over the otherwise longitudinally extending to the direction of insertion slats, the direct plugging on a specially shaped circuit board, the edges of the circuit board not in the gaps between the Slats can be jammed.
