Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a coaxial connector having a housing, a plug-side end for connection to a BNC coaxial socket, which has two BNC pins of a bayonet fitting, and a cable-side end for connection to an RF transmission line, in particular a coaxial cable, according to the preamble of Claim 1, as in US-A-2005/0037652 disclosed.
  • BNC coaxial sockets B Ajonett N avi C onnector
  • additional electrical connection lines between the probe and the meter are required to transmit, for example, more signals or a supply voltage for the probe. Since it is a peculiarity of the bayonet-type BNC connector that the BNC coaxial connector is freely rotatable relative to the BNC coaxial socket, these additional connection lines can not initially be made through the BNC connector.
  • the invention is based on the object, a coaxial connector of o.g. To design the type such that regardless of the shape of the housing of the coaxial plug a twist-proof connector with a BNC coaxial socket and with a predetermined orientation relative to this BNC coaxial socket can be produced.
  • the housing of the coaxial connector has two oppositely disposed, starting from the plug-side end of the coaxial connector extending in the axial direction slots, which are each arranged and adapted for receiving a BNC pin such that these each form an axial stop for a BNC pin, wherein on the housing of the coaxial connector a locking fork is arranged, which has two locking prongs, each detent tangentially overlaps an axial slot of the housing of the coaxial connector between the stop and the plug-side end of the coaxial plug, that when plugged into the BNC coaxial jack coaxial each BNC pin between a locking prongs and a stop of the axial slot is held and establishes a locked connection between the coaxial connector and the BNC coaxial socket, wherein the locking fork pivotally to de m housing of the coaxial connector and disposed between a locking position in which the locking prongs the axial slots tangentially overlap, and a release position in
  • Rotary sleeve for a bayonet lock not according to the BNC standard corresponding coaxial plug is reliably connected to a BNC socket, at the same time through the axial slots a predetermined orientation between coaxial and BNC coaxial jack and a fuse against a twisting of the coaxial connector relative to the BNC coaxial jack ge personallyrleitstet is.
  • the axial slots cooperate with the BNC pins to form a guide for the coaxial connector when pushed axially onto the BNC socket and limit the axial insertion depth with the stop.
  • the locking fork is present for locking, so that instead of a rotary movement for locking a bayonet lock only the locking fork must be pivoted to the locking position to produce a firmly locked connection between the coaxial connector and the BNC socket.
  • An automatic locking of the coaxial connector to the BNC coaxial socket by means of the locking fork is achieved in that the locking fork is acted upon in the direction of the locking position with an elastic spring force.
  • the latching connecting the coaxial connector with the BNC coaxial socket by simply manually sliding the coaxial connector on the BNC coaxial socket, which engages without additional manual activities, the locking of the locking fork to the BNC pins.
  • the axial slots are formed such that the BNC pins project radially outward of the housing.
  • each latching prongs zugewanden on a side facing the plug-side end of the coaxial plug side has a first inclined surface such that seen in the locking position of the locking fork in the direction of the plug-side end of the coaxial connector to the cable end of the coaxial connector increases the tangential coverage of the axial slot through the locking prongs, when plugging the coaxial connector on the BNC socket, the locking fork of the BNC pins automatically in the Release position pivoted.
  • the cable end serves to connect the coaxial connector 10 to an RF transmission line, such as a coaxial cable.
  • a locking fork 22 is pivotally mounted about a pivot axis 24.
  • the latching fork 22 comprises two latching prongs 26, one of which covers an axial slot 18 tangentially between the plug-side end 12 and the stopper 20 when the latching fork 22 in the in Fig. 1 and 2 is shown locking position.
  • a leaf spring 28 acts on the latching fork 22 with an elastic spring force such that the latching fork 22 is pressed into the locking position.
  • the locking fork 22 Upon pressure on the locking fork 22 at the point indicated by arrow 30, the locking fork 22 is pivoted about the pivot axis 24 in a release position (not shown) in which the locking prongs 26, the axial slots 18 no longer cover, so that the axial slots 18th are freely continuous in the axial direction.
  • Each locking prongs 26 has at a plug-side end 12 of the coaxial connector 10 side facing a first inclined surface 32 such that seen in the locking position of the locking fork 22 in the direction of the plug-side end 12 of the coaxial connector 10 to the cable end 14 of the coaxial connector 10, the tangential Covering of the axial slot 18 by the locking prongs 26 increases, in particular from Fig. 2 seen.
  • Each locking prongs 26 has on a side facing the cable end 14 of the coaxial connector 10 a second inclined surface 34 such that seen in the locking position of the locking fork 22 in the direction of the plug-side end 12 of the coaxial connector 10 to the cable-side end 14 of the coaxial connector 10, the tangential Covering of the axial slot 18 by the locking prongs 26 decreases, as in particular Fig. 2 seen.
  • the 3 and 4 illustrate the coaxial connector 10 according to the invention in a plugged onto a BNC coaxial socket 36 state.
  • This BNC coaxial socket 36 includes two BNC pins 38, which are originally for a known bayonet lock a suitably designed BNC connector with bayonet rotary sleeve, as is common with BNC connectors.
  • the axial slots 18 engage over the BNC pins 38, so that the coaxial connector 10 according to the invention only in a certain position relative to the BNC coaxial socket 36 this can be plugged.
  • the BNC pins 38 cooperating with the coaxial slots 18 additionally form a guide and an anti-twist device.
  • the BNC pins 38 which project beyond the housing 16 in the radial direction, first slide along the first inclined surfaces 32 of the latching prongs 26 and thereby push or pivot the latching fork 22 counter to elastic spring force of the leaf spring 28 from the locking position to the release position. Thereby, the axial slots 18 are released and the BNC pins 38 can be further inserted in and along the axial slots 18 up to the respective stops 20 in the axial direction.
  • the BNC pins 38 leave the region of the first inclined surfaces 32 and the locking fork 22 pivots under the elastic spring force of the leaf spring 28 back into the locking position.
  • the BNC pins 38 are locked between the stops 20 and the locking prongs 26 and can not be pulled out of the axial slots 18 in the direction of arrow 40 again.
  • the coaxial connector 10 and the BNC coaxial connector 36 are fixedly connected to each other.
  • the second inclined surfaces 34 of the locking prongs 26 press on the BNC pins 38 under the action of the elastic spring force of the leaf spring 28, so that they are pressed in the direction or against the stops 20 or against the direction of arrow 40. This produces a corresponding contact pressure for establishing electrical contact between the coaxial connector 10 and the BNC coaxial connector 36.
  • the mechanical and electrical connection of the coaxial connector 10 to the BNC coaxial connector 36 is made by simply attaching the coaxial connector 10 to the BNC coaxial connector 36 in the insertion direction 40 to the BNC pins 38 strike the attacks 20.
  • the locking connection between coaxial connector 10 and BNC coaxial socket 36 is thereby automatically produced by the locking fork 22.
  • a pressure is manually exerted on the locking fork 22 at arrow 30, so that the locking fork 22 is pivoted against the elastic spring force of the leaf spring 28 in the release position about the pivot axis 24.
