Abstract
Provided is a connector module providing superior shielding performance with small number of components. The connector module includes a terminal module having a center conductor, a tubular insulator holder supporting the center conductor and a tubular conductive shell, and a shield case. A bottom portion of the shield case includes a protruding portion bent from an edge of an opening portion through which the terminal module extends and protruding in a cylindrical form. The terminal module is joined to the shield case with an outer circumferential face of the conductive shell and an inner circumferential face of the protruding portion being placed in face contact with each other.
Claims8
A connector module comprising:
- a terminal module including;
- a linear-shaped center conductor for signal transmission,
- a tubular insulator holder having a through hole at a center thereof for allowing insertion of the center conductor therethrough, the holder being configured to cover a center portion of the center conductor with respect to its extending direction and to hold the center conductor, and
- a tubular conductive shell configured to cover a radial outer side of the insulator holder;
- a shield case provided as a bottomed tubular conductive case and configured to shield an inner space of the case against electromagnetic wave propagated in an outer space of the case;
- and
- a non-conductive connector case having a cylindrical space enclosing the terminal module and housing the terminal module and the shield case;
- the shield case including a bottom portion extending perpendicular to a first direction along the extending direction of the center conductor and a side wall portion bent from a circumference of the bottom portion and extending along the first direction;
- the bottom portion including an opening portion through which the terminal module extends and a protruding portion bent from an edge of the opening portion and protruding in a cylindrical form along the first direction;
- and
- the terminal module being joined to the shield case with an outer circumferential face of the conductive shell and an inner circumferential face of the protruding portion being placed in face contact with each other.
