Coaxial connector having a switch
First Claim
1. A coaxial connector having a switch, comprising:
- an insulating housing, which has an opening and a hollow portion to receive a counter pin;
a switching mechanism, which is comprised of a pair of switching means, which is disposed in said insulating housing and can work as a center conductor according to the operation with said counter pin; and
an outer conductor, which is provided so as to surround the outer perimeter of said insulating housing, wherein said pair of switching means is comprised of a switching spring and a connecting plate, which extend as a whole along the direction of inserting/removing said counter pin into/from said opening and said hollow portion and have shapes so as to face each other in said hollow portion, said switching spring is comprised of;
a securing section for securing to said insulating housing; and
a generally S-shaped elastic arm, which is comprised of a generally U-shaped first elastic arm that extends from said securing section into said hollow portion, and a generally inverted-U-shaped second elastic arm that extends from said first elastic arm, and said second elastic arm has;
a contact section for contacting with said connecting plate when said counter pin is not inserted into said hollow portion; and
another contact section for contacting with said counter pin when said counter pin is inserted in said hollow portion.

Abstract
The coaxial connector having a switch includes a switching spring and a connecting plate, which composes a pair of switching means as a switching mechanism arranged in the hollow portion of the insulating housing. The switching spring and the connecting plate extend along the inserting/removing direction of the counter pin into/from the hollow portion, and have shapes so as to face each other in the hollow portion. The switching spring is comprised of a securing section for securing to the insulating housing and a generally S-shaped elastic arm, which is comprised of a generally U-shaped first elastic arm, which extends from the securing section into the hollow portion, and a generally inverted U-shaped second elastic arm that extends from the first elastic arm. The second elastic arm has a contact section, which contacts with the connecting plate when the counter pin is not inserted in the hollow portion, and another contact section, which contacts with the counter pin when the counter pin is inserted in the hollow portion.
