Abstract:
A coaxial cable connector generally includes a connector body, a nut rotatably coupled to the connector body, a post disposed in the connector body and a biasing element acting between the post and the nut. The nut has an internal thread for engagement with an external thread of a mating connector. The internal thread of the nut and the external thread of the mating connector can be mismatched, wherein an interference fit is created therebetween upon connection of the nut to the mating connector. Also, the post can have a forward flanged base portion disposed within the axial length of the internally threaded surface of the nut, which, together with the biasing element, provides a constant force between the post and the nut.

International Classification:
H01R 9/05
US Classification:
439578
Abstract:
A coaxial cable connector is configured to connect a coaxial cable to a mating connector. The coaxial cable connector includes a connector body having a forward end and a rearward end opposite the forward end, the rearward end configured to receive a coaxial cable; an annular post disposed at least partially within the connector body; and a sleeve configured to be received within the connector body and movable from a first position to a second position relative to the connector body. The sleeve includes a collapsible portion configured to collapse radially inward in an asymmetric fashion toward the post as the collapsible sleeve is moved from the first position to the second position.

US Classification:
439585
Abstract:
A crimp type F-Connector wherein the crimp required for easy installation reduced while affording reliable cable retention. A wide range of cable sizes are accommodated by one connector which is configured to provide adequate sealing and mechanical strength in the connector while facilitating optimized radial deformation for providing reliable retention and a reliable mechanical and electrical interface with the coaxial cable upon which it is crimped. The connector includes a crimping portion including a sleeve that has a plurality of ribs or external annular protrusions which are dimensioned to enhance rigidity and mechanical strength. The ribs are of equal diameters when uncrimped and are "flat" crimped to maximize the cable area against which crimp forces are applied. An innermost rib is proximate to a support wall and separated by an exaggerated spacing to reduce crimp forces experienced when installing the connector onto the cable.

Abstract:
A cable connector is comprised of at least a first piece including a ferrule having serrations for mechanically connecting with different parts of a coaxial cable, a mandrel and a closing collar. A second piece of the connector is comprised of an entry body including a pin terminal, a support insulator and an actuator. Additionally, the connector provides a visual determination of the complete mating of one piece of the connector to the other.
A self-terminating coaxial connector is provided which is adapted to versatile use in local area network, CATV and other coaxial cable systems. The connector has the external appearance of a conventional coaxial connector and has the structure for providing the self-terminating operation contained within the connector housing. A slidable assembly is disposed within the connector body and includes an electrical contact element having contact ends confronting respective ends of the connector. A second conductive element is attached to and electrically connected to the first contact element and includes one or more outwardly extending finger portions which confront one or more respective chip resistors which are supported in respective openings of the body. A spring is provided within the body and is operative to urge the slidable assembly to an outward position in the absence of a plug attached to the outlet end. In this outward position the finger portions are in electrical connection with the chip resistor to provide termination of the connector by providing a matched impedance between the contact element and the grounded connector body.

US Classification:
439668
Abstract:
A coaxial shaped power inserter connector for a CATV (Cable Television) housing accepts two conductors at a first end. A first conductor, typically a power conductor, is secured to a center terminal which extends beyond the distal end of the connector body. A second conductor, typically a ground conductor, is secured to the body of the connector. The connector may be sealed or unsealed. The connector is useful for providing power to a CATV housing.
