Abstract

The present invention relates to an electric contact connector for armored coaxial cables. This connector, which comprises a tubular plug-in member in which there is fastened a bushing for holding a contact cable and a clamping element clamped on said bushing around the armoring of said cable, has the special feature that it comprises a single-piece tubular body having, without interruption of continuity, two separate zones one of which constitutes the plug-in element and the other the clamping element. One thus obtains simultaneously the clamping of the armoring and the holding of the cable holding sleeve solely by the clamping operation of the clamping zone of the tubular body.

Claims

1. Electric contact connector for armored coaxial cable comprising:

(a) a tubular plug-in element having a portion for plug-in engagement with a mating electrical connector;

(b) a bushing means located within said tubular plug-in element for holding the inner conductor and sheathing of a coaxial cable, said bushing means having the armoring of said coaxial cable placed around a portion thereof;

(c) a tubular setting zone formed on a portion of said tubular plug-in element;

(d) an annular bearing surface formed inside said tubular plug-in element, close to said setting zone; and

,

(e) a shoulder means formed on said bushing means, said shoulder means for resting on one side against said annular bearing surface of said tubular plug-in element and on the other side against said setting zone after the setting thereof, whereby said armoring is set on said bushing means and said bushing means is fastened in said tubular plug-in element by the mere operation of setting of said setting zone of the tubular plug-in element.
