FLOAT ADAPTER FOR ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR

摘要

A float adapter for an electrical connector that includes a conductive shell and an insulator received in the conductive shell. The insulator includes an engagement end, an interface end that is opposite the engagement end, and a reduced diameter middle portion therebetween. The insulator includes an inner bore that extends through the engagement end, the interface end, and the reduced diameter middle portion. The interface end has a lead-in tip portion that extends outside of the first end of the conductive shell. The lead-in tip portion has a tapered outer surface that terminates in an end face surface and a shoulder remote from the end face surface that defines an outer diameter that is larger than the inner diameter of the conductive shell. An inner contact is received in the inner bore of the insulator. The inner contact has socket openings at either end.

1. A float adapter for an electrical connector, comprising:
a conductive shell having opposite first and second ends; an insulator received in said conductive shell, said insulator including an engagement end, an interface end opposite said engagement end, and a reduced diameter middle portion therebetween, said insulator including an inner bore extending through said engagement end, said interface end, and said reduced diameter middle portion, said interface end having a lead-in tip portion extending outside of said first end of said conductive shell, said lead-in tip portion having a tapered outer surface terminating in an end face surface, and a shoulder remote from said end face surface defining an outer diameter that is larger than the inner diameter of said conductive shell, and said reduced diameter middle portion defining an annular space between said insulator and said conductive shell; and an inner contact received in said inner bore of said insulator, said inner contact having socket openings at either end.
