Abstract
There is provided a coaxial connector that can suitably bias a movable insulator to the side of a socket and maintain matched impedance. The coaxial connector includes a movable insulator that is fitted in a central conductor so as to be slidable and is housed in an insulator housing so as to be movable in an axial direction; and a biasing rubber member that is interposed between a partition disposed in the recesses of the insulator housing and the movable insulator. When the biasing rubber member connects the socket to the plug, the movable insulator is pushed in by a pushing force from a socket, and elastic pillars are bent in an arc shape.
Claims5
A coaxial connector, the coaxial connector comprising a plug in which a socket is fitted at one end of the plug, wherein
- the plug includes:
- a shell that is made of a conductive material and has an insulator housing open to the one end;
- an outer conductor that is made of a conductive material and is held inside the insulator housing;
- a central conductor that is made of a conductive material and is located inside the shell;
- a movable insulator that is fitted in the central conductor so as to be slidable and is housed in the insulator housing so as to be movable in an axial direction;
- and
- a biasing rubber member that is interposed between a partition disposed in the recesses of the insulator housing and the movable insulator or between a fixed insulator fixed in the shell and the movable insulator, the biasing rubber member including a pair of bearing plates that are opposite to each other with a space in between, and a plurality of elastic pillars that connect between both the bearing plates, and
- when the socket is connected to the plug, the movable insulator is pushed in by a pushing force from the socket, so that the elastic pillars are bent in an arc shape.
