Abstract

Abstract Coaxial cable (1) with a connector which comprises a central contact (23) connected to the central conductor (3) and a sheath contact (11) connected to the conducting sheath (7). An end portion of the conducting sheath is axially flattened to form a disk and is clamped between a transverse wall (15) of the sheath contact (11), which wall is provided at the centre with a passage (17), and a sleeve (19) which is bent inwards at its edge and is arranged coaxially with the transverse wall. As a result, the operation of mounting the connector can be mechanized very simply and readily.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 141 words
A coaxial cable (1) with a central conductor (3) which is surrounded by an intermediate insulating layer (5) and a conducting sheath (7), the cable being provided at least at one of its ends with a connector which comprises a central contact (23) connected to the central conductor and a tubular sheath contact (11) cor- nected to the conducting sheath, characterized in that an end portion of the conducting sheath (7), which end portion is flattened to form a disk by axial compression, is clamped between a transverse wall (15) of the sheath contact (11) which wall extends in a plane substantially at right angles to the axis of the cable (1) and is provided at the centre with a passage (17), and a sleeve (19) which is bent inwards at its edge and is arranged coaxially with the transverse wall.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 141 words
A coaxial cable (1) with a central conductor (3) which is surrounded by an intermediate insulating layer (5) and a conducting sheath (7), the cable being provided at least at one of its ends with a connector which comprises a central contact (23) connected to the central conductor and a tubular sheath contact (11) cor- nected to the conducting sheath, characterized in that an end portion of the conducting sheath (7), which end portion is flattened to form a disk by axial compression, is clamped between a transverse wall (15) of the sheath contact (11) which wall extends in a plane substantially at right angles to the axis of the cable (1) and is provided at the centre with a passage (17), and a sleeve (19) which is bent inwards at its edge and is arranged coaxially with the transverse wall.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 50 words
A coaxial cable as claimed in Claim 1, characterized in that the passage (17) at the centre of the transverse wall (15) of the sheath contact (11) has a diameter lying between the outer diameter of the intermediate insulating layer (5) and the outer diameter of the conducting sheath (7).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 42 words
A coaxial cable as claimed in Claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the region in which the cable (1) is connected to the central contact (23) and the sheath contact (11) is surrounded by a body (27) moulded from synthetic resin.
