  • Such connectors are in particular used to connect portable devices to their base while switching electronic functions of the portable device with those of the base, such as for example radio telephones in cars.

  • the third conductor is separated from the second conductor during the coupling of the two connector elements, but remains unconnected while the second conductor comes into contact with the first conductor.
  • the present invention aims to provide a high-frequency electrical connector of particularly simple and economical construction and implementation, which performs a switching function between two electrical lines while ensuring good radio-electric insulation between them and which does not have in particular the drawbacks mentioned above.

  • This electrical connector is characterized in that the blade of the ground conductor of the first connector element is arranged so as to be in contact with the third conductor of the second connector element, when the two connector elements are coupled.
  • the third conductor does not remain unconnected and therefore that the risk of coupling with the electric line formed by the first and second conductors is eliminated, without it being necessary to use blades of mass conductors joining to form a continuous ground plane between the third conductor and the first and second conductors.
  • the blade of the ground conductor of the first connector element is in contact with the third conductor of the second connector element.
  • This third conductor is then placed outside the high frequency signal transmission line defined by the second conductor and the ground conductor blade of the second connector element, which provides good radio-electric insulation between the electric lines. trained.

  • the second and third conductors each have two contact zones, namely a first contact zone by which they bear against each other when the two connector elements are uncoupled, and a second contact zone by which they bear respectively on the first conductor and on the blade of the ground conductor of the first connector element when the two connector elements are coupled.
  • the first contact zones are located in the median plane of the connector, plane which also contains the ground blades, while the second contact zones are set back relative to this median plane, when the two connector elements are uncoupled.
  • the outer sockets of the first and second connector elements are advantageously dimensioned so as to be in mutual contact when the two connector elements are assembled.
  • the sockets are arranged so that, during assembly, at least one of the sockets deforms radially.
