Description
La présente invention concerne un connecteur électrique coaxial réalisant également une fonction de commutation.The present invention relates to a coaxial electrical connector also performing a switching function.
On connaît déjà par exemple par EP-A-0 181 306 des connecteurs coaxiaux qui permettent de commuter une ligne électrique sur une autre ligne électrique lorsque les deux éléments du connecteur sont engagés l'un dans l'autre.EP-A-0 181 306 already discloses, for example, coaxial connectors which make it possible to switch an electrical line to another electrical line when the two elements of the connector are engaged one in the other.
De tels connecteurs sont en particulier utilisés pour brancher des appareils portatifs sur leur socle tout en commutant des fonctions électroniques de l'appareil portatif avec celles du socle, comme par exemple des radiotéléphones de voiture.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 car radiotelephones.
Les connecteurs connus présentent l'inconvénient important de ne pas procurer une bonne isolation radioélectrique entre les deux lignes électriques à commuter.Known connectors have the significant drawback of not providing good radio isolation between the two power lines to be switched.
La présente invention vise à fournir un connecteur coaxial simple et économique qui réalise une fonction de commutation entre deux lignes électriques tout en assurant une bonne isolation radioélectrique entre ces dernières.The present invention aims to provide a simple and economical coaxial connector which performs a switching function between two power lines while ensuring good radioelectric isolation between them.
Un tel connecteur électrique coaxial comporte, d'une part, un premier élément de connecteur comprenant un conducteur central et un conducteur de masse extérieur séparés par un isolant, et d'autre part, un second élément de connecteur comprenant un conducteur central et un conducteur de masse qui entoure le conducteur central en étant séparé de ce dernier par un isolant, ainsi qu'un troisième conducteur qui se trouve en contact électrique avec le conducteur central lorsque les deux éléments de connecteur sont désaccouplés, le premier élément de connecteur étant agencé pour, lors de son accouplement avec le second élément de connecteur, écarter l'un de l'autre ledit conducteur central et ledit troisième conducteur.Such a coaxial electrical connector comprises, on the one hand, a first connector element comprising a central conductor and an external ground conductor separated by an insulator, and on the other hand, a second connector element comprising a central conductor and a conductor ground which surrounds the central conductor while being separated from the latter by an insulator, as well as a third conductor which is in electrical contact with the central conductor when the two connector elements are uncoupled, the first connector element being arranged for , when it is coupled with the second connector element, separate said central conductor and said third conductor from one another.
Le connecteur électrique coaxial selon l'invention est caractérisé par le fait que, sur la majeure partie de sa longueur, le troisième conducteur du second élément de connecteur est séparé du conducteur central par le conducteur de masse.The coaxial electrical connector according to the invention is characterized in that, over most of its length, the third conductor of the second connector element is separated from the central conductor by the ground conductor.
En d'autres termes, le troisième conducteur du second élément de connecteur est disposé à l'extérieur de la ligne coaxiale définie par le conducteur central et le conducteur de masse.In other words, the third conductor of the second connector element is arranged outside the coaxial line defined by the central conductor and the ground conductor.
On comprend que le connecteur selon l'invention procure une bonne isolation radioélectrique entre les deux lignes électriques comprenant l'une le conducteur central et l'autre le troisième conducteur, dans la mesure où le conducteur de masse sépare ces deux lignes sur la plus grande partie de la longueur du second élément de connecteur.It is understood that the connector according to the invention provides good radioelectric insulation between the two power lines, one comprising the central conductor and the other the third conductor, insofar as the ground conductor separates these two lines on the largest part of the length of the second connector element.
Dans un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, le conducteur de masse du second élément de connecteur comporte deux tronçons de configurations différentes, à savoir un tronçon arrière de forme semi-cylindrique définissant une cloison s'étendant depuis la face arrière de l'élément de connecteur jusqu'au point de contact entre le conducteur central et le troisième conducteur et entourant le conducteur central, et un tronçon avant de forme cylindrique définissant une cloison s'étendant depuis ledit point de contact jusqu'à la face frontale de l'élément de connecteur.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the ground conductor of the second connector element comprises two sections of different configurations, namely a rear section of semi-cylindrical shape defining a partition extending from the rear face of the connector element up to the point of contact between the central conductor and the third conductor and surrounding the central conductor, and a front section of cylindrical shape defining a partition extending from said point of contact to the front face of the connector element.
Dans une variante préférée de ce mode de réalisation, le tronçon arrière du conducteur de masse comporte une cloison supplémentaire qui vient enfermer le troisième conducteur afin de protéger le signal électrique véhiculé, le cas échéant, par ce troisième conducteur.In a preferred variant of this embodiment, the rear section of the ground conductor comprises an additional partition which encloses the third conductor in order to protect the electrical signal conveyed, if necessary, by this third conductor.
Dans le but de mieux faire comprendre l'invention, on va en décrire maintenant des modes de réalisation donnés à titre d'exemples non limitatifs de l'invention, en référence au dessin annexé dans lequel :
- La figure 1 est une vue en coupe axiale d'un élément de connecteur selon un mode de réalisation,

La figure 1 représente en coupe axiale un élément de connecteur 1 comportant un conducteur central 2, un conducteur de masse 3 séparé du conducteur central 2 par un isolant 4, et un troisième conducteur 5.FIG. 1 shows in axial section a connector element 1 comprising a
Le conducteur central 2 est terminé à son extrémité avant par un contact élastique femelle 6 destiné à recevoir le contact central mâle 7 d'un élément de connecteur complémentaire 8 qui est schématisé en traits interrompus sur la figure 1.The
L'isolant 4 se prolonge vers l'avant sous la forme d'un manchon 4a qui entoure le contact élastique femelle 6.The
Le conducteur de masse 3 entoure le conducteur central 2 sur toute la longueur de l'élément de connecteur.The
Sur les vues en coupe des figures 3 et 4, on voit que le conducteur de masse 3 comporte un tronçon arrière Ta et un tronçon avant Tb qui présentent des configurations différentes.In the sectional views of Figures 3 and 4, we see that the
Le tronçon arrière Ta du conducteur de masse 3, visible sur la figure 3, comporte une cloison inférieure 3a de section circulaire et une cloison supérieure plane 3b, tandis que le tronçon avant Tb du conducteur de masse 3 est uniquement constitué par la cloison circulaire 3a qui s'étend sur la majeure partie de la périphérie de l'élément de connecteur.The rear section T a of the
Le troisième conducteur 5 s'étend parallèlement à la cloison supérieure plane 3b du conducteur de masse 3 et comporte une patte de contact 9 découpée dans sa largeur qui vient prendre appui, en position de repos, sur le contact élastique femelle 6 du conducteur central 2, lorsque les deux éléments de connecteurs complémentaires 1 et 8 sont désaccouplés.The
A cet effet, le manchon 4a de l'isolant 4 comporte une lumière 4b permettant le passage de la patte 9.To this end, the
Le troisième conducteur 5 est emprisonné dans l'isolant 4 à sa partie arrière et libre à sa partie avant où il comporte une zone flexible 5a qui lui permet de se déformer lors de l'accouplement des deux éléments de connecteur, sa terminaison en forme de spatule 5b prenant appui sur la partie frontale chanfreinée 10 de l'élément de connecteur complémentaire 8.The
Lors de la déformation du troisième conducteur 5, la patte de contact 9 s'écarte du conducteur central 2 et ouvre le circuit électrique constitué par le conducteur central 2 et le troisième conducteur 5.When the
Par ailleurs, lorsque les deux éléments de connecteur 1 et 8 sont engagés complètement l'un dans l'autre, la terminaison en forme de spatule 5b du troisième conducteur 5 peut venir au contact du conducteur de masse extérieur 11 de l'élément de connecteur complémentaire 8.Furthermore, when the two
Conformément à l'invention, la plus grande partie de la longueur du troisième conducteur 5 est séparée du conducteur central 2 par le conducteur de masse 3.According to the invention, most of the length of the
Ainsi, les lignes électriques comprenant respectivement le conducteur central 2 et le troisième conducteur 5 sont désaccouplées électriquement.Thus, the electrical lines respectively comprising the
Dans le mode de réalisation illustré aux figures 5, 6 et 7, le conducteur de masse 3' de l'élément de connecteur 1' comporte une cloison supplémentaire 3'c qui prolonge la cloison inférieure 3'a et vient enfermer le troisième conducteur 5, de sorte que ce dernier est également isolé de l'extérieur.In the embodiment illustrated in Figures 5, 6 and 7, the ground conductor 3 'of the connector element 1' has an additional partition 3 ' c which extends the lower partition 3' a and encloses the
Dans ce cas, le conducteur central 2 et le troisième conducteur 5 sont néanmoins séparés par le conducteur de masse 3 dont la partie plane 3b divise le volume intérieur de l'élément de connecteur en deux parties, comme on le voit sur la vue en coupe de la figure 7.In this case, the
Dans les deux modes de réalisation décrits ici, l'impédance de chaque ligne électrique peut être précisément fixée en choisissant convenablement la dimension des lames d'air 12 et 13 qui séparent le conducteur de masse 3,3' du conducteur central 2 et respectivement du troisième conducteur 5.In the two embodiments described here, the impedance of each electrical line can be precisely fixed by suitably choosing the dimension of the
Il est bien entendu que les modes de réalisation qui viennent d'être décrits ne présentent aucun caractère limitatif et qu'ils pourront recevoir toutes modifications désirables sans sortir pour cela du cadre de l'invention tel que défini par les revendications.It is understood that the embodiments which have just been described have no limiting character and that they can receive any desirable modifications without departing from the scope of the invention as defined by the claims.
