Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anschlußeinrichtung für Koaxialkabel, mit einem geraden Stecker- oder Kupplerteil, in dem die Innen- und Außenleiterverbindung mit dem Koaxialkabel erfolgt, wobei der Kabelaußenleiter in einer Schneidklemmzone an einem geraden Ende des Stecker- oder Kupplerteiles mittels radial von außen in das gerade Ende einsetzbarer, den Kabelmantel durchdringender und den Kabelaußenleiter kontaktierender Schneidklemmelemente angeschlossen ist.The invention relates to a connection device for coaxial cables, with a straight connector or coupler part in which the inner and outer conductor connection is made with the coaxial cable, the outer cable conductor in an insulation displacement zone at a straight end of the connector or coupler part can be inserted radially from the outside into the straight end, the cable jacket penetrating and contacting the cable outer conductor IDC is connected.

Eine derarte Anschlußeinrichtung für Koaxialkabel ist aus der EP-A-0 419 038 bekannt.Such a connection device for coaxial cable is from the EP-A-0 419 038 is known.

Bei dieser Anschlußvorrichtung erfolgt die Kontaktierung des Innenleiters ebenfalls über eine Schneidklemmvorrichtung. Dies hat jedoch den Nachteil, wenn der Innenleiter lediglich aus einer Kupferleitung besteht, daß die Schneidklemmvorrichtung auf den Durchmesser der Kupferleitung abgestimmt sein muß, da ansonsten eventuell eine Kontaktierung unterbleibt bzw. die Kupferleitung durch die Schneidklemmvorrichtung durchtrennt wird.With this connection device, the contacting of the Inner conductor also via an insulation displacement device. However, this has the disadvantage if the inner conductor only consists of a copper line that the insulation displacement device be matched to the diameter of the copper line must, otherwise contacting may not take place or the copper line through the insulation displacement device is severed.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, für gerade Anschlußeinrichtungen eine geeignete Verbindungstechnik für den Innenleiteranschluß anzugeben.The invention is therefore based on the object for straight Connection devices a suitable connection technology for specify the inner conductor connection.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß der Kabelinnenleiter mit einem isoliert in dem Stecker- oder Kupplerteiles angeordneten Innenleiter mittels eines Crimp- oder Lötanschlusses verbunden ist.The object is achieved in that the inner cable with an insulated in the connector or coupler part arranged inner conductor by means of a crimp or Solder connection is connected.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen für den Innenleiter- und den Außenleiteranschluß bei geraden Steckverbindern sind in den Ansprüchen 2 und 3 angegeben. Advantageous configurations for the inner conductor and the outer conductor connection for straight connectors are in the claims 2 and 3 specified.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispieles eines geraden Steckverbinders näher erläutert. Es zeigen

  • Figur 1 den Aufbau einer als koaxialer gerader Steckverbinder oder Kuppler aufgebauten Anschlußeinrichtung und
  • Figur 2 in einer Einzelheit im Schnitt die nähere Ausbildung eines beispielhaften Außenleiteranschlusses.
    • The invention is explained below with reference to an embodiment of a straight connector shown in the drawing. Show it
  • 1 shows the structure of a connecting device constructed as a coaxial straight connector or coupler and
  • Figure 2 in a detail in section, the detailed design of an exemplary outer conductor connection.

    • Die Anschlußeinrichtung nach Figur 1 für einen geraden koaxialen Steckverbinder oder -Kuppler besteht aus einem geraden Stecker- oder Kupplerteil 20 für den Innenleiteranschluß und den Außenleiteranschluß und weist hier an einem Ende einen in Figur 2 im Schnitt gezeigten, im Durchmesser gegenüber dem übrigen Stecker- oder Kupplerteil etwas verringerten rohrförmigen Anschlußstutzen 21 auf. In diesem Anschlußstutzen 21 ist eine Schneidklemmzone für den Anschluß des hier nicht sichtbaren, weil noch vom Kabelmantel 22 des Koaxialkabels 23 umgebenen Kabelaußenleiters vorgesehen. Hierzu sind in der Wandung 24 des Anschlußstutzens 21 Radialbohrungen 25, z. B. zwei einander diametral gegenüberliegende Radialbohrungen, vorgesehen, in welche mittels eines Klemmwerkzeuges Schneidklemmelemente 26 eindrückbar sind, die als in den Radialbohrungen selbsthaltende Klemmstöpsel ausgebildet sind. Innenseitig sind diese Klemmstöpsel mit Schneidkanten 27 versehen, so daß diese den Kabelmantel 22 durchdringen und den Kabelaußenleiter kontaktieren.The connection device according to Figure 1 for a straight coaxial Connector or coupler consists of a straight one Plug or coupler part 20 for the inner conductor connection and the outer conductor connection and here has one in at one end Figure 2 shown in section, in diameter compared to remaining plug or connector part somewhat reduced tubular Connection piece 21 on. In this connecting piece 21st is not an insulation displacement zone for the connection of the here visible because of the cable jacket 22 of the coaxial cable 23rd surrounding cable outer conductor provided. For this are in the Wall 24 of the connecting piece 21 radial bores 25, z. B. two diametrically opposite radial bores, provided, in which insulation displacement elements by means of a clamping tool 26 can be pressed in as in the radial bores self-locking clamp plugs are formed. On the inside these clamping plugs are provided with cutting edges 27, so that they penetrate the cable sheath 22 and the cable outer conductor to contact.

    Der Kabelinnenleiter 28 des Koaxialkabels 23 wird mit dem stiftförmigen, isoliert in dem Stecker- oder Kupplerteil 20 angeordneten Innenleiter 29 mittels eines Crimp- oder Lötanschlusses verbunden. Hierzu ist der Innenleiter 29 des Stecker- oder Kupplerteiles 20 in der Crimp- oder Lötzone 30 zur Aufnahme des Kabelinnenleiters 28 geeignet ausgebildet und z. B. als Steckhülse gestaltet.The inner cable 28 of the coaxial cable 23 is connected to the pin-shaped, arranged insulated in the plug or coupler part 20 Inner conductor 29 by means of a crimp or solder connection connected. For this purpose, the inner conductor 29 of the connector or connector part 20 in the crimping or soldering zone 30 for Receiving the inner cable 28 suitably formed and z. B. designed as a socket.
