Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a bent coaxial connector element capable of being fixed to a printed circuit board.
  • Coaxial connectors are already known which make it possible to electrically connect two printed boards arranged perpendicularly to one another.
  • This connector comprises a straight element as well as a bent element, which is provided, on one of its faces, with pins for its connection to a first printed circuit board and, on a face perpendicular to the first, of coaxial contacts suitable for cooperate with coaxial contacts of the straight element which is connected to a second printed card arranged perpendicular to the first printed card.
  • the bent element is generally connected to the first printed card by plugging and soldering with tin-lead of its pins in corresponding orifices made on said card.
  • the bent element has, as pins, force-insertable contacts.
  • These contacts comprise an elastic central part which has an outer section greater than the section for passage of the orifices provided on the card.
  • the mounting on the printed card of a connector element provided with force-insertable contacts is carried out by exerting a significant force (of the order of 30 to 100 Newtons) by contact on its face opposite to the card, so force the contacts inside the holes.
  • the connector element Once attached to the circuit board, the connector element exhibits good mechanical strength.
  • the present invention aims to provide a bent element of coaxial connector avoiding in particular this drawback.
  • the present invention relates to a bent coaxial connector element of the type comprising a substantially parallelepipedic conductive body, at least one bent conductive rod, one end of which is connected to a pin projecting from one of the faces of said body and the other of which end is connected to the central conductor of a coaxial contact, projecting from another face of said body and perpendicular to the pin, the angled conductive rod being held by an insulator inside an internal L-shaped conduit produced in the body, characterized in that said insulator has a narrowing in section defining an air layer around at least part of the straight branch of said rod.
  • This narrowing of the section makes it possible to provide an annular space filled with air around at least part of the rectilinear branches of the insulation, which makes it possible to suitably adjust the impedance of the electrical line formed by the bent conductive rod.
  • the insulator comprises, in the vicinity of the bent part of the bent conductive rod, surfaces bearing against the inner wall of the L-shaped internal conduit.
  • the insulator also comprises, at the ends of the bent conductive rod, surfaces bearing on the one hand against the internal wall of the L-shaped internal conduit, on the other hand against the internal wall of the external sleeve of the coaxial contact .
  • force-insertable contacts can be used as pins allowing the connection of the elbow connector element on the printed circuit board.
  • the body of the elbow element of the coaxial connector is produced in two parts which fit into one another, the main plane of separation of these two parts passing substantially through the axes of the two branches of the bent conductive rod.
  • the angled conductive rod provided with its insulator can be easily inserted inside the body of the connector element according to the invention, before assembly of the two parts of which it is made.
  • a coaxial connector comprising a bent element, generally designated by 1, and a straight element, generally designated by 2.
  • the bent element is mounted on a first printed card 3, called the daughter card, while the straight element 2 is mounted on a second printed card 4, called the mother card.
  • the daughter card 3 is connected to the mother board 4.
  • the bent element 1 comprises a body of substantially parallelepiped shape 5, preferably made of a metallic material such as a light zinc-aluminum alloy, by example the alloy known as Zamak® which consists of 96% zinc and 4% aluminum.
  • a metallic material such as a light zinc-aluminum alloy, by example the alloy known as Zamak® which consists of 96% zinc and 4% aluminum.
  • the parallelepipedic body 5 has two L-shaped conduits 6 and 7 internally, which open onto two orthogonal faces 5 a and 5 b of the body 5.
  • the axes of the two conduits 6 and 7 lie in the same plane which is substantially a median plane of the body 5.
  • the bottom face 5 a and the front face 5 b are designated.
  • Two angled conductive rods 8 and 9 are housed in the L-shaped conduits 6 and 7 and connect contact pins 10, 11 projecting from the underside 5 a to central conductors 12, 13 of coaxial contacts 14, 15 in projection of the front face 5 b .
  • the axes of the angled conductive rods 8 and 9 are located in the median plane containing the axes of the conduits 6 and 7.
  • the contact pins 10 and 11 are of the force-insertable type, that is to say that they are elastically deformable radially. Their section has dimensions slightly greater than those of orifices 16, 17, formed in the printed card 3, and in which said contact pins 10, 11 are intended to be introduced.
  • Each orifice 16, 17 includes a metallization ensuring electrical contact between the printed circuits of the card 3 and the contact pins 10, 11.
  • each bent conductive rod 8, 9 is provided with an insulator 18, 19 which has surfaces 18 a and 19 a resting against the inner wall of the corresponding conduit 6, 7 in an L shape, in particular at near the bent part of said conductive rod.
  • a polyetherimide such as that known under the name of ULTEM
  • a copolymer of ethylene and monochlorotrifluoroethylene such as the one known as HALAR.
  • the impedance of the electric line formed by each bent conductive rod 8, 9 it is advantageous to free up a space around the insulation 18, 19 so as to create an annular layer d 'air 18', 19 'around at least part of the straight branches of each rod.
  • the insulators 18 and 19 include a narrowing of section in their current parts.
  • the insulator has surfaces 18 b , 19 b ; 18 c , 19 c in abutment, on the one hand, against the L-shaped conduit 6,7 on the side of the daughter card 3, and on the other hand, against the external sleeve of the coaxial contact 14, 15 on the side of the motherboard 4.
  • the bent element 1 comprises in the illustrated example six ground contact pins 20 also inserted by force into the circuit board 3.
  • the contact pins 20 each have a V-shaped section, visible in the bottom view of FIG. 2.
  • Each ground contact pin 20 is a cut and bent part of a common ground plate 21, the U-section of which is visible in Figures 6 and 7.
  • the parallelepiped body 5 of the bent element 1 is produced in two parts 22 and 23 which are clearly visible in the sectional views of FIGS. 3 to 7.
  • the parts 22 and 23 are assembled essentially at the level of the plane containing the axes of the two conduits 6 and 7 in an L shape.
  • the part 22 extends over the entire length of the parallelepiped body 5 and comprises, on the side of the front face 5 b of said body, a return 22 a to which the coaxial contacts 14 and 15 are subjected.
  • the parts 22, 23 each have two semi-cylindrical grooves bent on their opposite faces, these two grooves constitute the conduits 6 and 7 in the form of L of the parallelepiped body 5, when the two parts 22, 23 are joined.
  • the assembly of the elbow element 1 is carried out as follows.
  • Part 22 therefore has four outwardly flared orifices 24 into which studs 25 integral with part 23 penetrate.
  • each stud 25 is riveted, its end thus flattened being retained in the flared mouth of the orifice 24.
  • these sleeves are held in position by crimping the portion 22 around a groove 26 is provided on each sleeve, as seen clearly in Figure 4.
  • ground plate 21 is fixed by riveting to the lower face 5 a of the body 5, which has studs 27 penetrating into orifices 28 in the plate 21.
  • an elbow element of coaxial connector is produced in a particularly simple manner which is capable of comprising contacts which can be inserted by force as pins for connection to a printed circuit board.
