Plug connector and plug connector set

Abstract

An improved plug connector (100, 200) is characterised by the following features: the electrical outer conductor contacting section of the outer conductor (113, 213) of the plug (100, 200) is designed to run separately in the radial direction from the axial stop, such that the high frequency signal path formed on the inner wall of the outer conductor (113, 213) between the outer conductor (113, 213) of the plug connector (100, 200) and a further outer conductor (213, 113) of a further plug connector (200, 100) for connection thereto runs over the electrical contacting device running in the radial direction and the mechanical action axial stop on the connector or plug side of the plug connector (100, 200) is provided outside the high frequency signal path provided by the radial contacting device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a plug connector according to the preamble of claim 1 and a plug connector assembly according to the preamble of claim 16 . Background technique [0002] Plug connectors are generally used for separating or connecting electrical lines in order to transmit current and / or in particular electrical signals on the electrical lines. This can be multi-plug or single-plug. [0003] Coaxial plug connectors are of great importance in the field of plug connectors, which contain an inner conductor and an outer conductor and often also an outer conductor shield, wherein an insulator is usually used to separate the currents of the inner and outer conductors. Cable insulation may be applied instead of a solid form insulator as a support to center the inner conductor. [0004] Different coaxial plug connectors are distinguished according to the purpose of use. [0005] For example, the so-called BC-plug connectors, F-plug connectors (such a...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Due to the compact construction, capacitive coupling is generally not possible in plug connectors because the space required cannot be met

Furthermore, capacitive coupling often exhibits too small a high-frequency bandwidth and makes it impossible to transmit DC power and / or data

[0011] High contact pressures have the disadvantage that very good materials must be used that can withstand high pressures

So for example in the 7-16 (DIN) plug-in connector according to the standard IEC-Norm EN 60169-4 no plastic outer conductor is used, that is to say no plastic outer conductor covered with a conductive layer or used for the manufacture of plugs and A union nut made of plastic for a permanently solid axial connection between the sockets, as this does not guarantee the same mechanical and electrical properties over a longer period of time (especially if it is noted that such a plug-in connection breaks when large)

[0012] Especially the relaxation problem that occurs with plastics can lead to changes in the mechanical contact pressure and thus change the electrical characteristics
