A coaxial connector as set forth in claim 1, wherein said securing means securing said first section of said center contact member in said bore of said dielectric member comprises a barb that bites into the material of the dielectric member.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
174 words
a coaxial jack connector adapted to electrically connect with a coaxial plug connector and to be electrically connected to conductive members of a substrate member, comprising: a metal tubular member defining an outer contact member and including contact elements at an inner end which extend substantially parallel with respect to a longitudinal axis of said tubular member for electrical connection with respective conductive members of the substrate member; a dielectric member disposed along said tubular member and having a bore extending therethrough; means provided by said tubular member and said dielectric member securing said dielectric member in position in said tubular member; a center contact member having a first section disposed along said bore and a second section extending outwardly from an inner end of said dielectric member and being substantially parallel with said contact elements but spaced therefrom for electrical connection with a conductive member of the substrate member; and means provided by said first section of said center contact member and said dielectric member securing said center contact member in said bore.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
174 words
a coaxial jack connector adapted to electrically connect with a coaxial plug connector and to be electrically connected to conductive members of a substrate member, comprising: a metal tubular member defining an outer contact member and including contact elements at an inner end which extend substantially parallel with respect to a longitudinal axis of said tubular member for electrical connection with respective conductive members of the substrate member; a dielectric member disposed along said tubular member and having a bore extending therethrough; means provided by said tubular member and said dielectric member securing said dielectric member in position in said tubular member; a center contact member having a first section disposed along said bore and a second section extending outwardly from an inner end of said dielectric member and being substantially parallel with said contact elements but spaced therefrom for electrical connection with a conductive member of the substrate member; and means provided by said first section of said center contact member and said dielectric member securing said center contact member in said bore.
