Abstract
There is provided a coaxial connector having a good radio-frequency characteristic includes a main body having a hole, or opening for allowing a probe to be inserted, a fixed terminal is fixed to the main body, a movable terminal including a fixed portion fixed to the main body and a plate spring portion extending from the fixed portion toward the fixed terminal. The plate spring portion is in contact with the fixed terminal and in contact with the main body at its tips. The plate spring portion can be displaced by the probe in a direction away from the fixed terminal.
Claims19
A coaxial connector, comprising:
- a main body that has a hole allowing a probe to be inserted therein;
- a fixed terminal fixed to the main body;
- and
- a movable terminal including a portion fixed to the main body and a plate spring portion, said plate spring portion having a length in a direction in which the movable terminal and the fixed terminal are aligned and linearly extending in said direction from the fixed portion toward the fixed terminal, the plate spring portion being in contact with the fixed terminal and simultaneously in contact with the main body at a tip thereof,
- wherein when a probe is inserted into the hole in a downward direction, the plate spring portion is curved in such a manner that a center region of the plate spring portion protrudes upward, the plate spring portion is urged upwards on the fixed terminal, and the plate spring portion is displaced by the inserted probe in said direction in which the movable terminal and the fixed terminal are aligned and in said downward direction away from the fixed terminal.
