Definitions

  • the invention relates to a HF coaxial angle connector part, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a coaxial RF angle connector is known from US-A-5 613 880.
  • the inner conductors are designed as fitted at their front ends with female elements wires, which are angled far behind the back of the housing and enforce a plate carrying them. Also, the outer conductors are electrically connected to such angled wires with external terminals.
  • the plastic housing is not metallized. The casing is fitted to the plate by snap-on support feet.
  • the invention has for its object to provide for a coaxial angular connector of the type described another particularly simple design solution that greatly favors its fully automatic production.
  • a coaxial connector module 1 has three coaxial connection lines 2, the coaxial connector parts 3 protrude from the front side 4 of his metallized plastic housing 5.
  • the layer thickness of the metallization of the housing 5 is selected at least equal to the penetration depth of the electromagnetic waves to be transmitted via the coaxial plug submodule 1.
  • the housing 5 has three straight tubular passages 6 from its rear side 7 to its front side 4 for receiving the three coaxial connecting lines 2.
  • the coaxial connecting lines 2 are arranged in the passages 6 in a plane parallel to the underside 8 of the housing 5 at predetermined mutual distances side by side.
  • the housing 5 is again shown with respect to its underside 8 in Fig. 3, to which reference is also made in the following.
  • the coaxial plug submodule 1 has a plurality of contact feet 9 with SMD terminals representing standing surfaces 10, the outer wall in a comb-like structure on the back 7 and the rear side 7 and the front side 4 connecting sides 11 and 12 of the housing 5 are arranged are.
  • the contact feet 9 are slightly above the underside 8 with their bases 8 parallel to the underside 8, which are designed as tin-plated SMD terminals.
  • the contact feet 9 serve both the housing attachment on or on a plate, in particular a printed circuit board, as well as the electrical connection of their SMD connections with these ports associated with the flap.
  • the tubular passages 6 have at the back 7 of the housing 5 groove-like, to its rear 7 and to its underside 8 open towards recesses 13.
  • the rear terminal ends representing end pieces 14 of the inner conductor 15 of the coaxial connection lines 2 are led out down from the housing 5.
  • the housing 5 is provided with through holes 17 for its additional attachment to a plate by means of screws or rivets on its upper side 18 in the area between the tubular passages 6.
  • the through-holes 17 on the underside 8 of the housing 5 on an annular flange-like base 19 the base 20 is coplanar with the base surfaces 10 of the contact feet 9.
  • Another series of feet 21 are provided on the underside 8 of the housing 5 on the side of its front side 4, on which no contact feet 9 are provided.
  • the base surfaces 22 of the feet 21 are also coplanar with the base surfaces 10 of the contact feet 9.
  • the housing 5 is provided on its underside 8 with centering pins 23 which on a not shown in the drawing plate on which the coaxial plug submodule. 1 to attach, centering holes are assigned.
  • the exploded view of the coaxial connector module 1 in Fig. 2 provides information about how the assembly of its individual parts takes place.
  • the coaxial connection lines 2 with their coaxial connector parts 3 at the front end have outer conductor sleeves 24 which have a stop 25 in the form of an outer diameter jump in the rear region.
  • the outer conductor sleeves 24 may be made of metallized plastic or, if higher quality demands are placed on the coaxial connector parts 3 of the coaxial connection lines 2, be metal sleeves.
  • the over-insulated with an insulation 26 inner conductor 15 are inserted from behind.
  • the front, insulation-free end pieces 27 are formed as sockets 28.
  • the tubular insulation 26 has in the rear region a stop 29 for the rear end face 30 of the outer conductor sleeves 24 in the form of an outlet diameter jump.
  • the outer conductor sleeves 24 have in their front region and a stop 31 for the front end face 32 of the insulation 26 in the form of an internal diameter jump. Furthermore, the tubular bushings 6 have a counter-stop 33 for the coaxial connecting lines 2 receiving them.
  • the inner conductor 15 enclosing insulation 26 on the side of the rear end 14 of the inner conductor 15 has a cam 34 in a their associated recess 35 engages in the housing wall.
  • the length of the outer conductor sleeves 24 of the coaxial connecting lines 2 is shorter than the length of their projecting from the housing 5 coaxial connector parts 3 and the length of the tubular passages 6.
  • the coaxial connecting lines 2 extends on the outer side of the conductor over the rear end face 30 of its outer conductor sleeves 24 through the metallized inner walls of the tubular passages 6 to the rear wall 7 of the housing 5. In this way, the total weight of the coaxial plug submodule 1 also becomes kept as low as possible when using metallic outer conductor sleeves 24.
  • the manufacture of between their end pieces 14 and 27 with insulating material 26 overmolded inner conductor 15 then designed when they are designed as stamped sheet metal parts.
  • the front end piece 27 of the inner conductor 15 performing socket 28, as can be seen in Fig. 5 enlarged inner conductor 15 can be realized in a simple manner by bent metal strips.
  • the inner conductor 15 has a broadened section 36 below its front end piece 27. This section 36 serves a possibly required impedance matching of the coaxial connecting lines.
  • the insulation 26 enveloping the inner conductor 15 is provided with a window opening 37 in this widened section 36.
  • the widened portion 38 above the rear end portion 14 of the inner conductor 15 also serves the impedance matching and takes into account the in this section 38 extended in diameter, the inner conductor 15 enclosing insulation 26th
  • the inner conductors 15 may be parts of a stamped metallic endless carrier strip 39.
  • the inner conductor 15 between their end pieces 14 and 27, as shown in FIG. 7, first continuously encapsulated with an insulation 26. Thereafter, the end pieces 14 and 27 are formed in a predetermined manner and then the insulated with the insulation 26 inner conductor 15 cut out of the endless carrier tape 39.
  • the front end pieces 27 of the inner conductor 15 are designed like a fork head. By rounding the fork crossbar 41 and forming its fork legs 42, these end pieces 27, as shown in FIG. 5, converted into a socket 28.
