Embodiment Construction

[0026] Referring to FIG. 1, a coaxial cable connector of an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The connector 10 is shown connected to a coaxial cable 12 such that the center conductor 14 of the coaxial cable 12 is arranged to communicate with a signal input (not shown) of an equipment port (not shown) when the connector 10 is connected to the equipment port. )touch. A plurality of elastic rings 18 preferably surround portions of the outer housing 20 . The elastic ring 18 increases the ease of securing the connector 10 to a device port. The connector 10 is shown in an unsecured state, ie, the connector 10 is not screwed onto the device port. The connector 10 here is indicated as an F-type connector.

[0027] Referring to FIG. 2 , according to one embodiment of the present invention, the connector 10 is in a semi-fastened state, or according to another embodiment of the present invention, the connector 10 is in a fully fastened state. As the compression sleeve 22 ...

Abstract

A coaxial cable connector includes an outer body, an inner body, a post interconnected with the inner body, a plurality of threads inside a first end of the outer body, and a compression sleeve disposed to fit between a second end of the outer body and an end of the inner body. The connector further includes a shoulder on an end of the post, a shoulder on an inside of the outer body, and a spring disposed between the shoulder of the post and the shoulder of the outer body. When the connector is not is not screwed completely onto an equipment port, a visible indicator on the compression sleeve is not visible to a user, but when the connector is screwed completely onto the equipment port, the connector becomes visible to the user.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is a continuation-in-part of U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 11 / 735,449, filed April 14, 2007, entitled TIGHTENING INDICATOR FOR COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTOR, the benefit of which is hereby claimed, which is hereby incorporated by reference introduce. technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to the field of coaxial cable connectors, and more particularly, to coaxial cable connectors having a visual indicator that can show when the connector is fully secured to a device port. Background technique [0004] A common problem with RCA coaxial cable connectors is that they are not secure on the port to which they are connected. Especially in vertical installations, the weight of the coaxial cable can be significant enough to loosen or dislodge the connector from the port. RCA coaxial cables are designed to include locking features to prevent the RCA connectors from being pulled loose...
