Abstract

A coaxial plug and socket connector includes a coaxial plug and a bulkhead socket. The socket has: an outer conductor shell, and coaxial cable and mating ends. The shell inside wall, adjacent the mating end, has a latching edge groove. The plug has: an outer conductor shell having mating and coaxial cable ends, a latching sleeve fitting round and axially displaceable relative to the plug shell. The latching sleeve has axial slots at its mating end forming elastically resilient latching tongues having, at their mating ends, a latching edge extending radially outwardly to latch onto the socket groove latching edge. An unlocking sleeve surrounding and displaceable axially relative to the latching sleeve has a ramp sloping radially outwardly toward the cable end. The ramp cooperates with a groove on an inside face of the unlocking sleeve so unlocking sleeve displacement relative to the latching sleeve bends the tongues inwardly.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Koaxialstecker für einen Koaxialsteckverbinder gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.
Die Erfindung betrifft ferner einen Koaxialsteckverbinder mit einem Koaxialstecker und einem Gehäusekuppler, insbesondere vom N-Typ, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 3.The present invention relates to a coaxial connector for a coaxial connector according to the preamble of claim 1.
The invention further relates to a coaxial connector with a coaxial connector and a housing coupler, in particular of the N-type, according to the preamble of claim 3.

Koaxialsteckverbinder umfassend einen Koaxialstecker sowie einen koaxialen Gehäusekuppler, die zusammen gesteckt und miteinander verbunden einen koaxialen Steckkontakt ergeben. Zur Verbindung von Stecker und Buchse bei Koaxialsteckverbindern vom sogenannten N-Typ weist die Buchse an ihrem Außenumfang ein Gewinde auf. Der Stecker ist mit einer Überwurfhülse ausgestattet, die an ihrem inneren Umfang ebenfalls ein Gewinde aufweist. Zur Verbindung von N-Stecker und N-Buchse werden diese zusammen gesteckt, und die Überwurfhülse des N-Steckers wird mit ihrem Innengewinde auf das Außengewinde der N-Buchse aufgeschraubt. Diese Art der Verbindung von Koaxialsteckverbindern vom N-Typ ist seit langem bekannt und bietet einen guten und sicheren HF-Kontakt zwischen Stecker und Buchse. Es wird jedoch häufig als nachteilig empfunden, dass zur Verbindung von Stecker und Buchse eine manuell und zeitlich relativ aufwändige Schraubaktion durchgeführt werden muss. Beispielsweise bei solchen Anwendungen, bei denen zahlreiche Koaxialsteckverbindungen von Stecker und Buchse hergestellt werden müssen, summiert sich der manuelle und zeitliche Aufwand erheblich.Coaxial connector comprising a coaxial connector and a coaxial housing coupler, which are plugged together and connected to give a coaxial plug contact. To connect the plug and socket in coaxial connectors of the so-called N-type, the socket has a thread on its outer circumference. The plug is equipped with a cap sleeve, which also has a thread on its inner circumference. To connect the N-plug and N-socket, these are plugged together, and the cap sleeve of the N-plug is screwed with its internal thread on the external thread of the N-socket. This type of connection of N-type coaxial connectors has long been known and provides good and safe RF contact between plug and socket. However, it is often found to be disadvantageous that a manual and temporally relatively complicated screw action must be performed to connect the plug and socket. For example, in such applications, in which numerous coaxial plug connectors must be made of plug and socket, the manual and time required adds considerably.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Koaxialstecker bezüglich der Funktionen Öffnen und Schließen zu vereinfachen, wobei die Funktionssicherheit bzgl. der Übertragung von HF-Signalen voll erhalten bleiben soll.The invention has for its object to simplify a coaxial connector with respect to the functions of opening and closing, with the reliability with respect to the transmission of RF signals to be fully maintained.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch einen Koaxialstecker der o.g. Art mit den in Anspruch 1 gekennzeichneten Merkmalen und durch einen Koaxialsteckverbinder der o.g. Art mit den in Anspruch 3 gekennzeichneten Merkmalen gelöst. Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist in den jeweils weiteren Ansprüchen beschrieben.This object is achieved by a coaxial connector of the o.g. Art having the features characterized in claim 1 and by a coaxial connector of the o.g. Art solved with the features characterized in claim 3.

It is inventively provided that a the outer conductor housing part encompassing detent sleeve is provided which is axially displaceable with respect to the outer conductor housing part, that a spring is provided, which is supported with its one end to the outer conductor housing part and with its other end to the latching sleeve such that the latching sleeve is biased in the direction of coaxial cable side end of the outer conductor housing part, that the latching sleeve is formed at its plug-side end with axial slots, so that elastically resilient latching tongues are formed, said latching tongues each have a radially outwardly extending latching edge at its plug-side end, and in that an unlocking sleeve is provided which surrounds the detent sleeve and is displaceable axially with respect to the detent sleeve, the detent sleeve having a ramp which rises radially outwards and rises in the direction of the coaxial cable end a corresponding chamfered groove cooperates on an inner side of the unlocking sleeve such that a displacement of the unlocking sleeve relative to the latching sleeve in the direction of the coaxial cable end causes a radial inward bending of the latching tongues of the latching sleeve.

Dies hat den Vorteil, dass an dem Koaxialstecker wahlweise ein Gehäusekuppler einfach befestigbar und wieder lösbar ist, welcher an einer Innenwandung eines Gehäuses des Gehäusekupplers benachbart zum steckseitigen Ende eine ringförmig umlaufende Nut aufweist, die eine Rastkante ausbildet. Eine diesen Koaxialstecker verwendende Koaxialsteckverbindung kann einfach, schnell und funktionssicher geschlossen und wieder gelöst werden, ohne dass Schraubverbindungen betätigt werden müssen.This has the advantage that on the coaxial connector optionally a housing coupler is simply attachable and detachable again, which adjacent to an inner wall of a housing of the housing coupler to the plug-side end has an annular circumferential groove which forms a latching edge. A coaxial connector used coaxial connector can be easily, quickly and functionally closed and released again, without screw connections must be operated.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist an dem koaxialkabelseitigen Ende des Außenleitergehäuseteiles ein Anschlag für die Rasthülse ausgebildet, welcher eine axiale Bewegung der Rasthülse in Richtung des koaxialkabelseitigen Endes des Außenleitergehäuseteiles begrenzt.In a preferred embodiment, a stop for the latching sleeve is formed on the coaxial cable-side end of the outer conductor housing part, which limits an axial movement of the latching sleeve in the direction of the coaxial cable-side end of the outer conductor housing part.

Bei einem Koaxialsteckverbinder der o.g. Art ist es erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass der Koaxialstecker wie zuvor beschrieben ausgebildet ist.In a coaxial connector of o.g. Art, it is inventively provided that the coaxial connector is formed as described above.

Dies hat den Vorteil, dass die Koaxialsteckverbindung einfach, schnell und funktionssicher geschlossen und wieder gelöst werden kann, ohne dass Schraubverbindungen betätigt werden müssen.This has the advantage that the coaxial connector can be closed easily and quickly and functionally reliable and released again, without screw connections must be operated.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist ein die Rastkante ausbildendes steckseitiges Ende der Nut 2,8 mm bis 3,0 mm, insbesondere 2,9 mm, von dem steckseitigen Ende des Gehäusekupplers beabstandet.In a preferred embodiment, a plug-in end of the groove forming the latching edge is 2.8 mm to 3.0 mm, in particular 2.9 mm, spaced from the plug-side end of the housing coupler.

Zweckmäßigerweise weist das Gehäuse an seinem Außenumfang ein Gewinde zum Eingriff eines Innengewindes einer Überwurfhülse eines herkömmlichen Koaxialsteckers auf. Dadurch ist der Gehäusekuppler wahlweise auch mit einem herkömmlichen, normgemäßen Koaxialstecker mit Schraubverschluss verbindbar.Appropriately, the housing has on its outer circumference a thread for engagement of an internal thread of a cap sleeve of a conventional coaxial plug. As a result, the housing coupler can optionally also be connected to a conventional, standard coaxial plug with screw cap.

Die Erfindung wird im Folgenden anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Diese zeigt in:

  • Fig. 1 eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Gehäusekupplers in teilweise geschnittener Seitenansicht,
  • Fig. 2 einen zu dem Gehäusekuppler gemäß Fig. 1 passenden Koaxialstecker in Schnittansicht und
  • Fig. 3 den Gehäusekuppler gemäß Fig. 1 sowie den Koaxialstecker gemäß Fig. 2 in zusammen gestecktem Zustand in Schnittansicht.
The invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing. This shows in:
  • 1 shows a preferred embodiment of a housing coupler according to the invention in a partially sectioned side view,
  • Fig. 2 is a matching to the housing coupler according to FIG. 1 coaxial in sectional view and
  • Fig. 3 shows the housing coupler of FIG. 1 and the coaxial connector of FIG. 2 in a plugged state in a sectional view.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform eines Gehäusekupplers 100 vom N-Typ für einen Koaxialsteckverbinder mit einem zylinderförmigen, einen Außenleiter ausbildenden Gehäuse 10, welches ein koaxialkabelseitiges Ende 12, ein steckseitiges Ende 14 sowie auf seinem Außenumfang ein Außengewinde 16 aufweist. Der Gehäusekuppler 100 umfasst ferner einen Innenleiter 18, ein Isolierteil 20, eine Löttülle 22, eine Sechskantmutter 24, eine Zahnscheibe 26 und einen O-Ring 28.1 shows a preferred embodiment of an N-type package coupler 100 for a coaxial connector having a cylindrical housing 10 forming an outer conductor, which has a coaxial cable-side end 12, a plug-in end 14, and an outer thread 16 on its outer periphery. Housing coupler 100 further includes an inner conductor 18, an insulating member 20, a soldering sleeve 22, a hex nut 24, a toothed washer 26, and an O-ring 28.

Dieser N-Gehäusekuppler 100 ist normgemäß ausgebildet, mit folgender Ausnahme: Am steckseitigen Ende 14 ist am Innenumfang des Gehäuses 10 eine Rastkante 30 mittels einer ringförmig umlaufenden Nut 34 an einer Innenseite des Gehäuses 10 ausgebildet. Diese Nut 34 ist durch spanabhebende Bearbeitung des normgemäßen Innenumfangs des Gehäuses 10 am steckseitigen Ende 14 ausgebildet. Diese von der Norm abweichende Ausbildung des Innenumfangs des Gehäuses 10 am steckseitigen Ende 14 ist derart ausgebildet, dass die Funktion bei Aufstecken eines herkömmlichen Koaxialsteckers mit Überwurfhülse in keiner Weise beeinträchtigt ist, sodass auch an dem in Fig. 1 abgebildeten Gehäusekuppler ein normgemäßer N-Koaxialstecker mit Überwurfhülse mit Innengewinde befestigt werden kann.This N-housing coupler 100 is designed according to standards, with the following exception: At the plug-side end 14, a latching edge 30 is formed on the inner circumference of the housing 10 by means of an annular circumferential groove 34 on an inner side of the housing 10. This groove 34 is formed by machining the standard inner circumference of the housing 10 at the plug-side end 14. This deviating from the standard design of the inner circumference of the housing 10 at the plug-side end 14 is formed such that the function is not impaired when plugging a conventional coaxial plug with cap sleeve in any way, so that even on the housing coupler shown in Fig. 1, a standard N-coaxial connector can be fixed with cap sleeve with internal thread.

Durch die Ausbildung des Gehäusekupplers 100 ist es zusätzlich möglich, einen speziell ausgebildeten Koaxialstecker in der Art eines schnellen Verschlusses aufzustecken. Dieser spezielle Koaxialstecker weist ein Rastelement auf, welches hinter die Rastkante 34 eingreift und zusammenwirkend mit der Rastkante 34 eine mechanisch feste Verbindung zwischen dem Gehäusekuppler und dem Koaxialstecker herstellt.Due to the design of the housing coupler 100, it is additionally possible to attach a specially designed coaxial plug in the manner of a fast closure. This special coaxial connector has a latching element which engages behind the latching edge 34 and, in cooperation with the latching edge 34, establishes a mechanically strong connection between the housing coupler and the coaxial connector.

Ein derartiger, speziell ausgebildeter, erfindungsgemäßer Koaxialstecker 200 ist beispielhaft in Fig. 2 dargestellt und umfasst ein einen Außenleiter ausbildendes zylinderförmiges Außenleitergehäuseteil 36, einen Innenleiter 38, ein Isolierteil 40, eine Rasthülse 42, eine Entriegelungshülse 44 und einen Pressring 46. Das Außenleitergehäuseteil 36 weist ein steckseitiges Ende 48 und ein koaxialkabelseitiges Ende 50 auf. Die Rasthülse 42 umgreift das Außenleitergehäuseteil 36. Es ist eine Feder 52 vorgesehen, welche sich mit ihrem einen Ende an dem Außenleitergehäuseteil 36 und mit ihrem anderen Ende an der Rasthülse 42 derart abstützt, dass die Rasthülse 42 in Richtung des koaxialkabelseitigen Endes 50 des Außenleitergehäuseteiles 36 vorgespannt ist. An dem koaxialkabelseitigen Ende 50 des Außenleitergehäuseteiles 36 ist ein Anschlag für die Rasthülse 42 in Form des Pressrings 46 ausgebildet, welcher eine axiale Bewegung der Rasthülse 42 in Richtung des koaxialkabelseitigen Endes 50 des Außenleitergehäuseteiles 36 begrenzt. Die Rasthülse 42 ist an ihrem steckseitigen Ende 48 mit axialen Schlitzen ausgebildet, sodass elastisch federnde Rastzungen 54 ausgebildet sind. Diese Rastzungen 54 weisen an ihrem steckseitigen Ende jeweils eine sich radial nach außen erhebende Rastkante 56 auf. Die Entriegelungshülse 44 umgibt die Rasthülse 42 und ist axial bezüglich der Rasthülse 42 verschiebbar. Die Rasthülse 42 weist eine sich radial nach außen erhebende und in Richtung des koaxialkabelseitigen Endes 50 ansteigende Rampe 58 auf, die mit einer entsprechend abgeschrägten Nut 60 an einer Innenseite der Entriegelungshülse 44 derart zusammenwirkt, dass ein Verschieben der Entriegelungshülse 44 relativ zur Rasthülse 42 in Richtung des koaxialkabelseitigen Endes 50 ein radiales nach innen Biegen der Rastzungen 54 der Rasthülse 42 bewirkt.Such a specially designed coaxial connector 200 according to the invention is shown by way of example in FIG. 2 and comprises a cylindrical outer conductor housing part 36 forming an outer conductor, an inner conductor 38, an insulating part 40, a latching sleeve 42, an unlocking sleeve 44 and a compression ring 46. The outer conductor housing part 36 points a plug-in end 48 and a coaxial cable-side end 50. The latching sleeve 42 surrounds the outer conductor housing part 36. A spring 52 is provided, which is supported with its one end on the outer conductor housing part 36 and with its other end on the latching sleeve 42 in such a way that the latching sleeve 42 moves in the direction of the coaxial cable end 50 of the outer conductor housing part 36 is biased. At the coaxial cable-side end 50 of the outer conductor housing part 36, a stop for the detent sleeve 42 in the form of the press ring 46 is formed, which limits an axial movement of the detent sleeve 42 in the direction of the coaxial cable end 50 of the outer conductor housing part 36. The latching sleeve 42 is formed at its plug-side end 48 with axial slots, so that elastically resilient latching tongues 54 are formed. These latching tongues 54 have at their plug-side end in each case a radially outwardly rising latching edge 56. The unlocking sleeve 44 surrounds the latching sleeve 42 and is axially displaceable relative to the latching sleeve 42. The latching sleeve 42 has a ramp 58 rising radially outward and rising in the direction of the coaxial cable end 50, which cooperates with a corresponding chamfered groove 60 on an inner side of the unlocking sleeve 44 in such a way that displacement of the unlocking sleeve 44 relative to the latching sleeve 42 in the direction the coaxial cable end 50 causes a radial inward bending of the locking tongues 54 of the locking sleeve 42.

Fig. 3 veranschaulicht die Funktionsweise des Verriegelungsmechanismus zwischen Gehäusekuppler 100 und erfindungsgemäßen Koaxialstecker 200. In eingestecktem Zustand greift die Rastzunge 54 mit der Rastkante 56 hinter die Rastkante 34 der Nut 34 ein. Hierdurch ist eine verriegelnde Halterung zwischen dem Gehäusekuppler 100 und dem Koaxialstecker 200 hergestellt, ohne dass dafür eine Schraubverbindung hergestellt werden muss. Stattdessen ist der Koaxialstecker 200 lediglich auf den Gehäusekuppler 100 aufzuschieben. Durch eine rampenförmige Ausbildung der Rastkante 56 gleitet diese automatisch an der Rastkante 30 vorbei, wobei die Rastzungen 44 elastisch radial nach innen gebogen werden, und in die Nut 34 hinein. Zum wieder Lösen dieser mechanischen Rastverbindung dient die Entriegelungshülse 44. Hierzu wird die Entriegelungshülse 44 relativ zur Rasthülse 42, beziehungsweise dem Außenleitergehäuseteil 36, axial in Richtung des koaxialkabelseitigen Endes 50 des Koaxialsteckers 200 verschoben. Hierdurch gleitet die abgeschrägte Nut 60 über die Rampe 58 der Rasthülse 42, wodurch die Rastzungen 54 radial nach innen gebogen werden. Dies führt dazu, dass die Rastkante 56 von dem Eingriff mit der Rastnase 30 gelöst wird, so dass der Koaxialstecker 200 aus dem Gehäusekuppler 100 herausgezogen werden kann.Fig. 3 illustrates the operation of the locking mechanism between housing coupler 100 and coaxial connector 200 according to the invention. In the inserted state, the latching tongue 54 engages with the latching edge 56 behind the latching edge 34 of the groove 34 a. As a result, an interlocking holder between the housing coupler 100 and the coaxial connector 200 is made without the need for a screw connection must be made. Instead, the coaxial connector 200 is merely slid onto the package coupler 100. By a ramp-shaped Training the locking edge 56 slides it automatically past the locking edge 30, wherein the locking tongues 44 are elastically bent radially inward, and in the groove 34 into it. To release this mechanical latching connection again, the unlocking sleeve 44 serves. For this purpose, the unlocking sleeve 44 is displaced relative to the latching sleeve 42, or the outer conductor housing part 36, axially in the direction of coaxial cable end 50 of the coaxial connector 200. As a result, the chamfered groove 60 slides over the ramp 58 of the locking sleeve 42, whereby the locking tongues 54 are bent radially inwardly. As a result, the latching edge 56 is released from the engagement with the latching lug 30, so that the coaxial plug 200 can be pulled out of the housing coupler 100.
