发明名称 Coaxial connector apparatus and method
摘要 A coaxial connector of the type wherein an inner connector member of a female connector is adapted for secure engagement with a connector member of a male connector. The coaxial connector is positioned around the connector member of the male connector and the connector member of the female connector when the coaxial connector is in its locked position. A spring basket with an angular frontal surface is positioned around the connection member of the male connector. A sleeve with an angular internal surface for engaging the angular frontal surface of the spring basket is reciprically positioned around the spring basket and the connection member of the male connector. The sleeve has at least one locking groove that extends substantially parallel to the major axis along a portion of the body thereof. A spring nut is provided with a hollow front end disposed within the sleeve and at least one upstanding locking finger disposed within the at least one locking grove of the sleeve. A spring is partially disposed within the hollow front end of the spring nut, and the spring is positioned between the spring nut and the connection member of the male connector respectively such that when the spring nut is pushed in a forward axial direction relative to the sleeve to lock the coaxial connector, the spring is compressed and the internal angular surface of the sleeve engages the angular frontal surface of the spring basket forcing the spring basket to apply a radially inward force on the connection member of the female connector, holding the female connector in place. The spring provides an axial force on the connection member of the male connector and forces the connection member of the male connector into engagement with the connection member of the female connector.
