Definitions

  • the invention relates to a coaxial connector arrangement with an electrically conductive outer sleeve and an electrically conductive inner sleeve that can be inserted into the outer sleeve in the axial direction and electrically connected to the outer sleeve, a first contact pin in the outer sleeve from the side facing away from the inner sleeve and a first contact pin in the inner sleeve the side facing away from the outer sleeve a second contact pin can be inserted, and wherein an insulating part is arranged in the inner sleeve, in which an inner conductor part is held, and the two contact pins can be connected to one another in an electrically conductive manner via the inner conductor part.
  • Coaxial connector arrangements of the type mentioned at the outset are used to establish an electrical connection between a first coaxial cable and a second coaxial cable or between a coaxial cable and another electrical assembly.
  • An end region of the first coaxial cable can be inserted with its inner conductor, which forms a first contact pin, from the side facing away from the inner sleeve in the axial direction into the outer sleeve, and in a corresponding manner the inner conductor of a second coaxial cable, which forms a second contact pin, can be inserted from the the side facing away from the outer sleeve can be introduced into the inner sleeve in the axial direction.
  • the two contact pins can usually be inserted into recesses in the inner conductor part and connected to one another in an electrically conductive manner via this.
  • the outer conductors of the two coaxial cables can be electrically connected to the outer sleeve or to the inner sleeve, for example by means of a soldered connection, and then the inner sleeve can be inserted into the outer sleeve, the inner sleeve making electrical contact with the outer sleeve and thereby establishing an electrical connection between the outer conductors of the two coaxial cables.
  • a coaxial cable can also be connected to an electrical assembly by means of such coaxial connector arrangements.
  • the electrical assembly represents one of the two contact pins and the coaxial cable, with the end area of its inner conductor, represents the other Contact pin ready.
  • the contact pin of the electrical assembly can be electrically conductively connected to the contact pin of the coaxial cable via the inner conductor part and corresponding outer conductors of the assembly and of the coaxial cable can be connected to one another in an electrically conductive manner via the outer sleeve and the inner sleeve.
  • the passive intermodulation is influenced, among other things, by the stability of the mechanical connection between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve.
  • the inner sleeve is therefore screwed into the outer sleeve in many cases.
  • the screw connection reduces the risk of the inner sleeve moving relative to the outer sleeve and thereby impairing the electrical transmission quality.
  • the provision of a screw connection is, however, associated with not inconsiderable manufacturing costs and makes handling of such coaxial connector arrangements more difficult.
  • the radial extension serves at the same time to produce a latching connection between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve, in that an annular groove is arranged in the area of the radial extension into which an annular latching projection of the outer sleeve dips.
  • a coaxial connector assembly is from US 2010/304579 A1 known.
  • This connector arrangement has a locking element which is fixed on the inner sleeve and has two diametrically opposite, cantilevered locking arms, at the free ends of which a locking projection is arranged in each case.
  • the two locking arms take a section of the outer sleeve facing the inner sleeve between them and engage in an annular groove surrounding the outer sleeve.
  • Such a coaxial connector arrangement is also from US 2010/279536 A1 which discloses a coaxial connector assembly having the features of the preamble of claim 1, and which postpublished EP 2 830 165 A1 known.
  • a coaxial connector arrangement in which a contact socket is surrounded by a socket insulating part which carries a shielding contact on its outside.
  • This assembly can be inserted into an electrically conductive plug part which forms a sleeve and carries a contact spring in the form of a cage spring on the inside.
  • a locking sleeve is used for locking, which dips with a locking projection into a complementary locking groove.
  • the object of the present invention is to develop a coaxial connector arrangement of the type mentioned at the beginning in such a way that it is easy to use and has little passive intermodulation.
  • a locking element is used in addition to the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve, with the aid of which the inner sleeve can be fixed in the outer sleeve and, if necessary, released from the outer sleeve.
  • the locking element thus reduces the risk that the inner sleeve will move relative to the outer sleeve after it has been inserted, thereby negatively influencing the electrical transmission quality of the coaxial connector arrangement.
  • the inventive Coaxial connector arrangement is therefore characterized by a low level of passive intermodulation.
  • the locking element can be mounted on the inner sleeve or on the outer sleeve in a first assembly step. If the inner sleeve is then inserted into the outer sleeve, the locking element can be pushed onto the other of the two sleeves in order to fix the two sleeves relative to one another.
  • the locking element can already assume its end position when the inner sleeve is inserted onto the outer sleeve, or it can be moved into its end position after the inner sleeve has been inserted into the outer sleeve.
  • the locking element is first pre-assembled on the inner sleeve. If the inner sleeve is then inserted into the outer sleeve, the locking element is pushed onto the outer sleeve in the axial direction so far that a releasable mechanical connection between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve is achieved by means of the locking element to fix the inner sleeve in the outer sleeve.
  • the locking element is first preassembled on the outer sleeve. If the inner sleeve is then inserted into the outer sleeve, the locking element is pushed against the insertion direction of the inner sleeve so far onto the inner sleeve that a detachable mechanical connection is achieved between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve to fix the inner sleeve in the outer sleeve.
  • the locking element can be optionally mounted on the inner sleeve or on the outer sleeve before the inner sleeve is inserted into the outer sleeve and can be pushed onto the other of the two sleeves during or after the inner sleeve is inserted into the outer sleeve, because this facilitates the assembly of the coaxial connector arrangement, since the user has the option of choosing the optimal pre-assembly of the locking element for the particular application.
  • the inner sleeve can advantageously be fixed in a rotationally fixed manner in the outer sleeve by means of the locking element.
  • the inner sleeve can be fixed axially immovably and non-rotatably in the outer sleeve by means of the locking element.
  • a particularly simple pre-assembly of the locking element either on the inner sleeve or on the outer sleeve is achieved in an advantageous embodiment of the invention in that the locking element can be pushed onto one of the two sleeves before inserting the inner sleeve into the outer sleeve.
  • the locking element can therefore be pushed onto the inner sleeve in a first step, for example, and then pushed onto the outer sleeve when the inner sleeve is inserted into the outer sleeve.
  • the user also has the option of sliding the locking element onto the outer sleeve in a first step. If the inner sleeve is then inserted into the outer sleeve, the locking element is also pushed onto the inner sleeve in order to fix it in a detachable manner in the outer sleeve.
  • the locking element surrounds at least one of the two sleeves, in particular both sleeves, in the circumferential direction.
  • the locking element forms a jacket, for example a cylinder jacket, which completely surrounds at least one of the two sleeves in the circumferential direction after the inner sleeve has been inserted into the outer sleeve.

  • the pulling force ensures that the free end of the inner sleeve protruding end of the insulating part maintains its position on the outer sleeve, so the insulating part is pressed by the locking element against the outer sleeve.
