Abstract

Abstract 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 comprises a metal tubular member in the form of an outer contact member and includes contact elements at an inner end which extend substantially parallel with respect to a longitudinal axis of the tubular member for electrical connection with respective conductive members of a substrate member. A dielectric member is disposed along the tubular member and has a bore extending therethrough. A projection on the tubular member and a recess in the dielectric member secure the dielectric member in position in the tubular member. A contact member has a first section disposed along the bore of the dielectric member and a second section extends outwardly from an inner end of the dielectric member and is substantially parallel with the contact elements but spaced therefrom for electrical connection with a conductive member of the substrate member and means are provided by the first section of the center contact member and the dielectric member securing the center contact member in the bore of the dielectric member.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 179 words
A coaxial connector of the jack type adapted to electrically connect with a coaxial plug connector, comprising: a metal tubular member having a flange at one end; 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 within 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; means provided by said first section of said center contact member securing said center contact member in said bore, said tubular member with said dielectric member secured therein and said center contact member secured in said bore defining a coaxial contact assembly; an outer contact member has an opening through which said coaxial contact assembly extends with said flange engaging and being electrically connected to said outer contact member; and contacts extending outwardly from said outer contact member and extending substantially parallel with said second section of said center contact member but spaced therefrom.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 179 words
A coaxial connector of the jack type adapted to electrically connect with a coaxial plug connector, comprising: a metal tubular member having a flange at one end; 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 within 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; means provided by said first section of said center contact member securing said center contact member in said bore, said tubular member with said dielectric member secured therein and said center contact member secured in said bore defining a coaxial contact assembly; an outer contact member has an opening through which said coaxial contact assembly extends with said flange engaging and being electrically connected to said outer contact member; and contacts extending outwardly from said outer contact member and extending substantially parallel with said second section of said center contact member but spaced therefrom.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 36 words
a coaxial connector as set forth in claim 1, wherein said securing means securing said dielectric member within said tubular member comprises a projection in said tubular member disposed in a recess in said dielectric member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 41 words
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.
