Definitions
- the invention relates to coaxial connectors, and more particularly connectors intended to be mounted at the end of a coaxial cable.
- connectors of the so-called "7/16" type which are 50 ⁇ coaxial connectors precisely defined by the standard IEC169-4: these are connectors for radio frequencies, including the outside diameter of the inside conductor (connector core) is 7 mm, and the internal diameter of the external conductor, 16 mm.
- These connectors are used in particular in the field of radiotelephony (GSM, UMTS, etc.) for the connection of station equipment relays and other organs of the land and air parts of the network.
- connectors whether male or female, have one side called “interface side” corresponding to their free end intended to cooperate with another connection member (connector or socket), and a opposite side or “cable side” which is where they are connected to the coaxial cable at the end of which they are mounted.
- One of the aims of the invention is to propose a connector structure coaxial which overcomes these disadvantages and allows to achieve a coaxial connector with a body which is not necessarily bibloc, therefore advantageously in one piece, and which can overcome the transfer inner diameter of the outer conductor, thus making it possible to respect the connector standards "7/16" or "3.5 / 12" (or other) with a internal geometry simplified and thus more economical to produce.
- the invention provides a connector of the aforementioned type, that is to say a coaxial connector having an interface side capable of being connected to a homologous connector, and on the opposite side a cable capable of receiving a end of coaxial cable
- this connector comprising: a central core cylindrical forming internal conductor, with interface side part of surface-mounted connection and cable side a connecting part capable of being secured to a central conductor of the coaxial cable, the diameter of the part of connection being a standard nominal diameter and the diameter of the part of connection being less than this nominal diameter; a metallic body forming external conductor, with interface side a cylindrical internal cavity housing the core and, on the cable side, a cable passage receiving the cable coaxial, the diameter of the cavity being a normalized nominal diameter and the diameter of the cable passage being less than this nominal diameter; and a cylindrical dielectric ring extending radially between the part connecting the soul and the inner wall of the body cavity.
- the dielectric ring comprises two separate sleeves, inside and outside, fitted one inside the other, the outer sleeve has an outer diameter corresponding to the nominal diameter of the body cavity and a larger inside diameter the diameter of the cable passage, and the inner sleeve has a outside diameter corresponding to the inside diameter of the inside sleeve, and an inner diameter corresponding to the diameter of the part of soul bond.
- the connector body can thus advantageously be a single piece without removable element on the cable side.
- the part connection of the central core is preferably monobloc with the part link receiving the end of the core of the coaxial cable.
- the body cavity receiving the outer sleeve can bear on its surface interior of the notches capable of allowing the sleeve to be secured outside after forced insertion of the latter into the cavity.
- the connecting part of the core can bear on its outer surface notches capable of allowing its forced insertion on the sleeve interior and joining to the latter after insertion.
- the adjustment between the diameter outside of the inner sleeve and the inner diameter of the outer sleeve is an adjustment allowing relative axial sliding, without play, of the two sleeves.
- a stop face turned in an axial direction and positioned axially from so that, after complete introduction of said first set into said second assembly, the front face of the cable insulation comes into abutment against the abutment face and the respective end faces of the sleeves exterior and interior are then flush with the interface side.
- FIG. 1 is a view in longitudinal section, in an axial plane, of a male connector according to the invention, mounted at the end of the cable.
- Figure 2 is equivalent to Figure 1, for a female connector.
- FIG. 3 is an overall perspective view illustrating the assembly, by the cable side, of the inner cable-conductor assembly in the body of connector.
- Figure 1 is a longitudinal section through an axial plane of a connector male according to the invention, mounted at the end of a coaxial cable.
- Figure 2 illustrates the same type of connector, but female type; on this figure 2, the same reference numerals designate identical elements or functionally similar to those in Figure 1, so that this figure 2 will not be described again in detail, except for highlight the particularities of the different connector type.
- This central core 12 is surrounded by an internal insulator 14, and a conductor of mass 18, forming the outer conductor of the coaxial cable, is interposed between this internal insulator 14 and the external insulator 16 defining the outer, cylindrical surface of the coaxial cable 10.
- this coaxial cable 10 is connected to a standardized connector "7/16" male (figure 1) or female (figure 2) of characteristic impedance 50 ⁇ identical to that of the cable, and made up of a central cylindrical core 100, defining the internal conductor of the connector, and of a body metallic 200, for example in solid silver-plated brass, forming the conductor external of this connector.
- the central core 100 comprises a connection member 102 terminated on the interface side by a projecting part 104 (for the male connector, FIG. 1) or a hollow part 106 provided with elastic parallel blades (for the female element, FIG. 2).
- the central core 100 is extended, cable side, by a cylindrical part 110 carrying a hollow spindle 112, integral or not with the element 110, suitable for receiving the end 12 of the core of the coaxial cable, which will be crimped or soldered on this pin 112.
- the connector body 200 has a protruding part on the interface side.
- cylindrical 202 fitting into a homologous cylindrical housing 204 of the female connector (figure 2).
- This standardized cavity 206 may consist of a bore directly machined in the central part 208 of the connector body 200 (as for the female connector illustrated in FIG. 2) or, as a variant, be machined in a part 210 attached inside this central part 208 (as for the male connector illustrated in FIG. 1).
- the connector body is extended, cable side, by a tubular part 212 terminated at its free end by a housing 214 of diameter slightly greater than the diameter D 3 of the cable 10, so as to be able to accommodate the latter with its external insulator 16 , to then overmold everything to ensure the seal between cable and connector.
- This cavity furthermore comprises, at the place where the internal insulator 14 will come into abutment after assembly of the cable, a reference face 216 extending radially and facing the opening of the cavity; the role of this reference face will be explained below at the time of the final assembly of the connector.
- One of the connector elements here the male element illustrated in FIG. 1, is provided with an external locking ring 218, for example a ring carrying a female thread 220 allowing the screwing of the ring on the connector homologous female provided with an external filter 222 (FIG. 2), or on a similarly configured base or connection plate and mounted for example on a box.
- an external locking ring 218 for example a ring carrying a female thread 220 allowing the screwing of the ring on the connector homologous female provided with an external filter 222 (FIG. 2), or on a similarly configured base or connection plate and mounted for example on a box.
- O-rings 224 and / or 226 can be provided to strengthen the seal between, respectively, the connector and the element counterpart on which it is screwed (joint 224), and between the body and the overmolding sheath surrounding the rear part of the latter (seal 226).
- the connector is also provided with a dielectric ring 300 extending radially between the central core of the conductor 100 and the cavity 206 the connector body 200, so as to ensure mechanical retention, in the axis, of the core 100 with conservation of the characteristic impedance provided for by the standard.
- This dielectric ring is for example made of PTFE.
- the dielectric ring 200 is produced in the form of two separate sleeves nestable one inside the other, with an outer sleeve 302 and an inner sleeve 304.
- the outside diameter of the outside sleeve 302 is chosen so as to allow its forced insertion into the interior housing 206 of the body 200, with advantageously on the interior surface of the cavity 206 receiving the outer sleeve 302 of the peripheral notches such as 228 to strengthen the mechanical connection of this outer sleeve 302 with the connector body 200.
- the internal diameter of the internal sleeve 304 is chosen to so as to require a forced insertion on the tubular element 112, possibly using peripheral notches (not shown).
- the outer diameter of the inner sleeve 304 is equal to or greater than the diameter D 1 of the central core 100 of the connector, so that this core does not create any obstacle when it is inserted into the interior housing of the sleeve. exterior 302.
- the inside diameter of the outer sleeve 302 and the outside diameter of the inner sleeve 304 are determined so as to allow a fitting of these two pieces with an adjustment allowing sliding relative axial, free but without play.
- the first step is to prepare the end of the cable 10, including the insulation external 16 and internal insulation 14 have been previously stripped of so as to allow the central core 12 and the internal insulator 14 to emerge on a length precisely defined in axial direction.
- Driver's Soul 12 is joined electrically and mechanically, for example by soldering or crimping, to an assembly consisting of the central core of the connector (elements referenced 102, 110 and 112 in the figures) on which was previously fitted, for example to the press, the dielectric sleeve interior 304. This assembly is generally illustrated in A in FIG. 3.
- the connector body 200 is prepared by providing it with the outer ring 302, the latter being for example pressed in by force to the press. We thus obtain an assembly referenced B in FIG. 3.
- part A i.e. the cable with the connector core and the dielectric sleeve inside
- part B i.e. the connector body fitted with the outer dielectric sleeve
- the inner sleeve 304 freely penetrates into the opening central of the outer sleeve 302, and its sliding is continued until, on the interface side, the respective front faces 308, 310 (Figure 1) of the two sleeves 302, 304 come flush, in their final position.
- the precise positioning of the two sleeves is obtained by giving dimension L ( Figure 1), defined between the rear radial face of the outer sleeve 302 and the reference face 216, a value such that, when the interior insulator 14 abuts against this face 216, the two sleeves (and therefore, by the same fact, the central core 100) reach their final axial position.
- the assembly thus obtained can finally be joined by brazing between the parts 212 of the connector body and the outer conductor 18 of the cable, then overmolded with insulation covering the cable and the rear part of the connector, so as to seal the assembly, others techniques which can of course be envisaged, for example the use a cable gland.
