ADAPTOR ASSEMBLY
FIELD OF ~HE INVENTION
The present invention relates generally to coaxial cable connectors and more particularly to extenders for coaxial cable connectors.
BACKGROUMD OF THE INVENTION
In a coaxial cable connector extender the terminal of the extender must be i~olated from the extender housing. A
variety of dielectric materials have been used to provide this function. While air is the best dielectric material as far as electrical performance is concerned since in an.air dielectric the velocity of propagation of the electromagnetic wave is minimal and the characteristic impedance is relatively minimal minimizing line losses. An air dielectric however cannot provide the mechanical support needed between the terminal and the housing. Many plastic dielectric materials can be used which provide a compromise between electrical per~ormance and mechanical per~ormance. Plastic dielectric materials are usually shaped as cylinders and placed inside the housing, surrounding a portion of the terminal. Electrical per~ormance o~ the connector extender i8 negatively affected by the amount of plastic dielectric material used. In some instances a mechanical element is re~uired to maintain the dielectric material in place within the housing of the connector extender.
An additional problem associated with prior art coaxial cable extenders is known as "lock-up". Lock-up occurs when the connector pin from a coaxial connector is inserted into the metal terminal of the adaptor assembly. As the adaptor assembly is installed onto the connector, a plastic collar is driven axially into the housing, with the tapered bore of the collar being forced against the end o~ the terminal, thereby compressing the terminal about the connector pin.
When the pressure supplied by the closing collar being driven .

Once lock-up has occurred, it becomes difficult to separate the collar from the terminal.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
An adaptor assembly functions as a coaxial cable connector extender for coaxial cable connectors. The adaptor assembly comprises a housing including a terminal configured to receive at one end thereof a connector pin from a cooperating coaxial connector. The adaptor assembly further includes at least one terminal support element for supporting the terminal within the housing while maintaining the terminal isolated mechanically and electrically from the housing. The adaptor assembly also contains an auto-seizing assembly comprising a collar, a spacer and a bushing which are configured to compress an end of the terminal onto the connector pin of the cooperating coaxial connector when the adaptor assembly is installed. The bushing is configured to prevent lock-up of the adaptor assembly. The adaptor assembly provides a high performance, low cost extension o~
a coaxial cable connector.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Fig. 1 shows an adaptor assembly 1 according to the present invention. The adaptor assembly functions as a coaxial cable connector extender when installed on an end of a coaxial ca~le connector or another extender. The adaptor assembly 1 is provided in a plurality of lengths producing extensions of three inches, six inches, nine inches and twelve inches, although other lengths could be implemented.
The adaptor assembly 1 includes a housing 10, which is made from a conductive material such as aluminum. The housing 10 includes a central bore 11 disposed therethrough.
An electrically conductive terminal 20 is disposed within the central bore 11 of housing 10. A first end 21 of the terminal 20 extends beyond a first end 12 of the housing lo, and serves as a male or pin terminal. A second end 22 of the terminal 20 is located within the second end 13 of the housing lo and includes 810t8 23 defining fingers to make the end 22 compressible. The second end 22 serves as a female terminal and includes a plurality of serrations 24 in order to provide for a secure electrical and mechanical connection to a conductor inserted therein.
An auto-seizing assembly comprising a bushing 30, collar 40 and spacer 50 is disposed along a common longitudinal axis within the second end 13 of the housing 10. Bushing 30, collar 40 and spacer 50 are open on each of two ends and have a central bore disposed therethrough. The first end of spacer 50 abuts the second end of collar 40. A first end of collar 40 is configured to receive bushing 30 therein.
Bushing 30 is of tapered configuration matching the tapered end of second end 22 and operates to compress the CA 02236783 1998-o~-o~
WO98111631 PCT~S97/16022 second end 22 of terminal 20 when a mating connector is installed. Bushing 30 is comprised of metal and thus prevents the occurrence of lockup of the assembly, as will be described below.
Referring now to Figs. 1 and 2, during installation of the adaptor assembly 1 onto a connector or another extender, the pin 110 from the cooperating cable connector is inserted into the second end 13 of housing 10. The connector pin 110 is received within the 6econd end 22 of terminal 20. As the adaptor assembly 1 is installed on the connector, spacer 50 is driven axially toward terminal 20 resultiny in collar 40 also being driven deeper into housing 10. Collar 40 is configured to include a metal bushing 30. Metal bushing 30 includes a tapered bore for engagi~g the end of terminal 20.
The tapered bore at the first end of bushing 30 is forced against the tapered portion of the second end 22 of terminal 20, resulting in compression of the second end of terminal 20 about the inserted connector pin 110. A flat surface of bushing 30 is abutting a flat sur~ace of collar 40, thus the bushing 30 does not become embedded in collar 40 and, since the terminal 20 and the bushing 30 are comprised of metal the terminal 20 does not become embedded in the bushing 30, thus lock-up of the adaptor assembly 1 is prevented. A secure mechanical and electrical connection is provided by the adaptor assembly 1 to the connector pin 110 of the coaxial cable connector.
Adaptor assembly 1 further includes an entry support 60 disposed along a common longitudinal axis within housing 10.
Entry support 60 has a central bore disposed therethrough sized to receive a portion of terminal 20. Entry support 60 also incudes an annular recess for supporting a first o-ring 80.
An end insulator 90 of adaptor assembly 1 is disposed along a common longitudinal axis within housing 10 adjacent the ~irst end 12 thereof. End insulator 90 includes a central bore for supporting terminal 20.
CA 02236783 1998-o~-o~
WO98/11631 PCT~S97/16022 At least one support element 70 is disposed along a common longitudinal axis within the housing 10. The number of support elements required are dependent upon the length L of the adaptor assembly. While support element 70 is shown in this embodiment as a disk having a central bore, it should be appreciated that other embodiments may also be utilized.
The support element 70 is comprised o~ a plastic material and provides mechanical support for physically isolating the terminal 20 from the housing 10 as well as electrically insulating the terminal 20 from the housing 10. Electrical performance of the adaptor assembly 1 is negatively affected by the amount of plastic dielectric material utilized. The support elements 70 provide for a minimal amount of plastic dielectric material, and thereby affords improved electrical performance of the adaptor assembly 1.
Figs. 3-5A show an additional embodiment of a support element. Support element 70~ is comprised of a flat strip of dielectric material including two holes 72 sized to receive a portion of the terminal therethrough. While this embodiment shows a flat rectangular strip it should be appreciated that other shapes could be implemented, as could dif~erent numbers of holes. Figs. 4 and 4A show the support element 70' installed on a terminal 20. The strip is bowed, and a portion o~ terminal 20 extends through holes 72. Figs.
5 and 5A show the support element 70' installed in an adaptor assembly 1. The support element 70' mechanically supports the terminal 20 within the housing 10, as well as providing electrical insulation of the terminal 20 from the housing 10.
Additionally, the support element 70' functions as a spring to secure itself within the housing 10. The deformation of the bowed shape of the support element 70' at its apex where it abuts the housing 10 and the tension provided by the ends of the support element 70' where they contact the housing 10 maintain the support element 70' from unintended movement within the housing 10, thereby removing the need for a retaining mechanism. Further, an alaternate embodment of the WO 98111631 PCT/US97tl6022 terminal 20' is provided with conc~ntric grooves 25 that retain the ends of the support element 70'and provide additional resistance to movement.
By providing electrical and mechanical isolation of the terminal within the housing with a minimal amount of plastic and by providing mostly air insulation, the electrical performance of the adaptor assembly is thus improved.
Additlonally, since less material is involved, support elements of this type are lower cost.
Having described preferred embodiments o~ the invention it will now become apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art that other embodiment~ incorporating these concepts may be used. Accordingly, it i9 submitted that the invention should not be limited to the described embodiments but rather should be limited only by the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
