[0056] The following description provides many different embodiments, or examples, for implementing different features of the present application. The elements and arrangements described in the following specific examples are only used to concisely express the present application, and they are only examples and not intended to limit the present application.

[0057] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present application to be protected, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present application.

[0058] In the present application, unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected to", "fixed", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or integrated; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to specific circumstances. In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. are only used for distinguishing descriptions and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0059] In the present application, unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the first feature being above or below the second feature may include the direct contact between the first and second features, or may include the situation where the first and second features are not in direct contact but in contact through other features between them. Moreover, the first feature being above, on top of, and above the second feature includes the first feature being directly above and obliquely above the second feature, or simply indicating that the horizontal height of the first feature is higher than that of the second feature. The first feature being below, beneath, and below the second feature includes the first feature being directly below and obliquely below the second feature, or simply indicating that the horizontal height of the first feature is lower than that of the second feature.

[0060] In the prior art, when a connector is installed in a cabinet, it needs to rotate. During cabling, not only does the signal need to change by 90 degrees, but also it can rotate 360 degrees along the cable axis. When the existing connector rotates, it will drive the cable connected to it to rotate, resulting in poor contact between the cable and the connector, causing problems such as signal transmission interruption or instability. Usually, a spring is used to maintain the connection between two adjacent inner conductors. However, the connector is used frequently, and during the telescoping process of the spring, it will scratch the inner wall of the inner conductor, and the installation method of the spring on the inner conductor will also affect the structure of the inner conductor, as well as the inconvenience of installation and replacement. When the existing connector rotates, it also cannot be locked at any position and can only rotate in one direction.

[0061] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a rotatable radio frequency coaxial connector to solve the above-mentioned technical problems existing in the prior art, such as Figures 1 - 23 As shown, it mainly includes the following contents:

[0062] The present application provides a rotatable radio frequency coaxial connector, including:

[0063] A first outer conductor 10, the first outer conductor 10 includes a transverse outer conductor 11 and a vertical outer conductor 12, and the transverse outer conductor 11 and the vertical outer conductor 12 are perpendicularly arranged. The outer conductor along the x direction is the transverse outer conductor 11, and the outer conductor along the y direction is the vertical outer conductor 12. The transverse outer conductor 11 and the vertical outer conductor 12 can be integrally formed and connected by means such as welding and crimping.

[0064] A first inner conductor 13, the first inner conductor 13 is installed in the vertical outer conductor 12. The first inner conductor 13 is inserted into the vertical outer conductor 12 along the y direction. One end of the first inner conductor 13 can be plugged into components such as a cabinet, and the other end is located at the lower end of the vertical outer conductor 12.

[0065] A second inner conductor 14, a third inner conductor 15 and a holding assembly 20. The second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 are installed in the transverse outer conductor 11. One end of the second inner conductor 14 is plugged into the first inner conductor 13, and the other end of the second inner conductor 14 is electrically connected to the third inner conductor 15 through the holding assembly 20. Exemplarily, both the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 are installed in the transverse outer conductor 11 along the x direction. The second inner conductor 14 is located between the first inner conductor 13 and the third inner conductor 15, and the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 are coaxially arranged. One end of the second inner conductor 14 can be connected to the first inner conductor 13 by plugging, and the other end of the second inner conductor 14 is electrically connected to one end of the third inner conductor 15 through the holding assembly 20.

[0066] Keep one end of the holding component 20 in contact with the second inner conductor 14 and the other end in contact with the third inner conductor 15. Exemplarily, the holding component 20 is located between the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 and has conductivity, which is used to keep the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 in electrical connection all the time, so as to ensure that signals can be stably transmitted during the rotation of the connector. The two ends of the holding component 20 will not damage the inner walls of the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15, which is convenient for installation and disassembly. Optionally, the holding component 20 is made of a metal material.

[0067] The second outer conductor 30, and the second outer conductor 30 is rotatably connected to the transverse outer conductor 11 through a rotating member 40. Exemplarily, the rotating member 40 is a bearing. One end of the second outer conductor 30 is connected to one end of the transverse outer conductor 11. The rotating member 40 is located between the second outer conductor 30 and the transverse outer conductor 11, and the rotating member 40 is sleeved on the transverse outer conductor 11, so that the second outer conductor 30 can rotate relative to the transverse outer conductor 11, which is convenient for the connector to rotate in a 360° direction when wiring in the cabinet.

[0068] The locking component 50, the locking component 50 includes a locking rod 51 and a third elastic member 52. One end of the third elastic member 52 is sleeved on the locking rod 51 and fixedly connected to the locking rod 51, and the other end of the third elastic member 52 is fixedly connected to the locking groove. One end of the locking rod 51 is slidably installed in the locking groove 31 of the second outer conductor 30 through the third elastic member 52, that is, the locking rod 51 can slide in the locking groove 31 along the x direction, and the other end is inserted into the insertion groove 111 of the transverse outer conductor 11 for locking the connector.

[0069] The locking lever 51 has a first position and a second position relative to the locking groove 31. Wherein, in the first position, the locking lever 51 is slidable in the locking groove 31 and is located in the insertion groove 111. In this application, the first direction C1 and the second direction C2 are opposite. For example, if the first direction C1 is clockwise, the second direction C2 is counterclockwise. When the locking lever 51 is in the first position, the first outer conductor 10 can rotate relative to the second outer conductor 30 along the first direction C1. When the first outer conductor 10 rotates to a preset position, due to the cooperation between the locking lever 51 and the insertion groove 111, the first outer conductor 10 is held in the current position and cannot rotate along the second direction C2. When the locking lever 51 needs to rotate from the first direction C1 to the second direction C2, the locking lever 51 is toggled to switch the locking lever 51 from the first position to the second position. When the locking lever 51 is in the second position, the end of the locking lever 51 is away from the insertion groove 111, and the locking lever 51 is fixed in the locking groove 31. The first outer conductor 10 can rotate relative to the second outer conductor 30 along the second direction C2. When it rotates to a preset position, the locking lever 51 can be toggled to insert the locking lever 51 into the insertion groove 111, so that the first outer conductor 10 cannot rotate along the C2 direction.

[0070] In some alternative embodiments, the locking lever 51 can also be switched from the second position to the first position. The connector of this application can achieve a 720° rotation, that is, 360° rotation is respectively achieved along the first direction C1 and the second direction C2, which is convenient for the connector to be smoothly installed in the cabinet by rotation.

[0071] In some alternative embodiments, the end of the second outer conductor 30 is fixedly connected to the cable. When the connector can rotate itself while keeping the cable fixed, the normal transmission of the cable signal is ensured.

[0072] Therefore, this application provides a rotatable radio frequency coaxial connector. The first outer conductor 10 and the second outer conductor 30 are connected by a rotating member 40, so that a 720° rotation can be relatively achieved between the first outer conductor 10 and the second outer conductor 30. When the connector is wired in the cabinet, the position of the cable can be kept unchanged. Only the connector needs to be rotated, and the internal structure of the cabinet does not need to be greatly changed to complete the wiring. A locking assembly 50 is provided between the first outer conductor 10 and the second outer conductor 30 to control the rotation direction of the first outer conductor 10. When the first outer conductor 10 rotates to a preset position, it is held in the current position for locking. During the rotation of the first outer conductor 10, the cable and the inner conductor may rotate. The holding assembly 20 is used to always keep the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 connected to achieve stable signal transmission. This application realizes that the cable remains stationary after wiring is completed, and the rotation function is achieved through the first outer conductor of the connector. After rotating to a certain angle, the locking in this direction can be achieved to make the signal strongest.

[0073] According to some optional embodiments, the locking groove 31 includes a first position groove 311 and a second position groove 312, the first position groove 311 penetrates the locking end 32 along the axial direction of the second outer conductor 30, the second position groove 312 extends along the radial direction of the second outer conductor 30, and the second position groove 312 is connected to the first position groove 311.

[0074] In the above scheme, a step is formed on the outer wall of the second outer conductor 30, and the step is opposite to the end of the transverse outer conductor 11, and the step is the locking end 32. The first position groove 311 penetrates the surface of the second outer conductor 30 in the radial direction, and the second position groove 312 is opened on the outer wall of the second outer conductor 30, and the first position groove 311 is connected with the second position groove 312. The angle between the axis of the first position groove 311 and the axis of the second position groove 312 is an acute angle, so that the locking groove 31 forms a "卜" shape, so that the locking rod 51 is not easy to slide out when it is located in the second position groove 312. The locking rod 51 is slidably installed in the first position groove 311 through the third elastic member 52, and is used to lock the rotation of the first outer conductor 10. The locking rod 51 can also be moved to rotate in the first position groove 311, and rotated until it is partially fixed in the second position groove 312, so as to realize the rotation of the first outer conductor 10 along the second direction.

[0075] By setting the first position slot 311 and the second position slot 312, during the rotation of the connector, it is only necessary to move the locking rod 51 to the corresponding first position slot 311 or the second position slot 312 to realize the rotation of the first outer conductor 10 in different directions, so that the connector can be suitable for different types of cabinet structures, wiring can be completed therein, and signal transmission is stable during the rotation process.

[0076] According to some optional embodiments, a locking portion 53 is provided on the outer wall of the locking rod 51, and a portion of the locking portion 53 extends out of the locking groove 31, wherein the locking portion 53 can be slidably switched from the first position groove 311 to the second position groove 312 for fixing; when the locking rod 51 is in the first position relative to the locking groove 31, the locking portion 53 is located in the first position groove 311; when the locking rod 51 is in the second position relative to the locking groove 31, the locking portion 53 is located in the second position groove 312.

[0077] In the above scheme, the locking portion 53 is rod-shaped. In some optional embodiments, a mounting hole is provided on the outer wall of the locking rod 51, one end of the locking portion 53 is inserted into the mounting hole and connected to the locking rod 51, and the other end extends out of the locking groove 31 and is located outside the second outer conductor 30, so that the operator can operate and dial it from the outside. When the locking rod 51 slides in the first position groove 311, the locking portion 53 is perpendicular to the first position groove 311, and can guide the locking rod 51 to slide in the first position groove 311 without rotating, thereby ensuring that the first outer conductor 10 rotates along the set direction. When the locking rod 51 needs to be converted from the first position to the second position, the locking portion 53 is dialed, and the locking rod 51 rotates in the first position groove 311, driving the locking portion 53 to rotate and embed into the second position groove 312 to remain fixed.

[0078] In some optional embodiments, the locking rod 51 and the locking portion 53 are detachably connected, which facilitates the installation and removal of the locking rod 51 in the locking groove 31 and also facilitates the installation and replacement of the locking portion 53 .

[0079] According to some optional embodiments, the end of the locking rod 51 includes a rotating surface 511 and a stop surface 512, the rotating surface 511 cooperates with the insertion slot 111 to allow the first outer conductor 10 to rotate in a first direction, and the stop surface 512 cooperates with the insertion slot 111 to limit the first outer conductor 10 from rotating in a second direction.

[0080] According to some optional embodiments, there are multiple insertion slots 111, and the multiple insertion slots 111 are distributed at circumferential intervals along the end of the transverse outer conductor 11. The locking rod 51 can be inserted into any insertion slot 111 as needed, wherein the insertion slot 111 is conical.

[0081] In the above scheme, if Figure 10As shown, the locking rod 51 is cylindrical. The end of the locking rod 51 close to the insertion slot 111 has a rotating surface 511 that is rotatably engaged with the insertion slot 111. The rotating surface 511 is an inclined cutting surface, which cooperates with the tapered surface of the insertion slot 111. The resisting surface 512 is a cylindrical surface corresponding to the inclined cutting surface. Under the action of an external force, the rotating surface 511 rotates in cooperation with the insertion slot 111 and can only rotate along the rotating surface 511, such as only rotating in the first direction. The resisting surface 512 abuts against the tapered surface of the insertion slot 111, so that the first outer conductor 10 cannot rotate in the second direction. Specifically, when an external force drives the locking rod 51 to rotate in the first direction, the rotating surface 511 contacts the tapered surface of the insertion slot 111. Due to the matching of the inclined surface angles of the two, a sliding friction is generated on the contact surface between the two, allowing the locking rod 51 to rotate in the first direction. The geometric design of the inclined cutting surface of the rotating surface 511 may cause the locking rod 51 to have a certain displacement in the x direction, but due to structural tolerances or the existence of the third elastic member, this displacement is allowed, so that the locking rod 51 can rotate smoothly. When an external force drives the locking rod 51 to rotate in the reverse direction (i.e., rotate in the second direction), the resisting surface 512 contacts the inner wall of the insertion slot 111. When the resisting surface 512 is in the shape of a cylindrical surface or a rectangular surface perpendicular to the insertion slot 111, it will cause an increase in the contact area between the resisting surface 512 and the tapered surface of the insertion slot 111 or form a geometric interference. At this time, the tangential force of the reverse rotation is converted into a normal pressure, and the friction force suddenly increases, even triggering a self-locking effect and completely preventing rotation.

[0082] With such a setting, when the first outer conductor 10 rotates in the first direction, the locking rod 51 can rotate in cooperation with the insertion slot 111 through the rotating surface 511. When the rotation stops, the resisting surface 512 cooperates with the insertion slot 111 to achieve locking, preventing the first outer conductor 10 from rotating in the opposite direction. Due to the arrangement of multiple insertion slots 111, the first outer conductor 10 can be locked at any position.

[0083] According to some optional embodiments, a first sliding rail 112 is provided on the inner wall of the transverse outer conductor 11. The first sliding rail 112 is an annular closed ring. A second sliding rail 313 is provided on the outer wall of the second outer conductor 30. The second sliding rail is an annular closed ring. The position of the first sliding rail 112 is correspondingly set with the position of the second sliding rail 313, so that the distance between the first outer conductor 10 and the second outer conductor 30 remains unchanged, without affecting the volume of the connector. The first sliding rail 112 and the second sliding rail 313 define a rotating channel 314. The rotating member 40 is slidably installed in the rotating channel 314 for realizing the rotation of the first outer conductor 10 relative to the second outer conductor 30.

[0084] According to some optional embodiments, when the locking lever 51 is in the second position, the first outer conductor 10 can rotate relative to the second outer conductor 30 in the first direction. In the above solution, when the locking portion 53 on the locking lever 51 is in the second position groove 312, the locking lever 51 is away from the insertion groove 111, and there is no mutual interference between the locking lever 51 and the insertion groove 111. The first outer conductor 10 can rotate relative to the second outer conductor 30 in the second direction or in the first direction, realizing the rapid rotation of the connector in different directions.

[0085] According to some optional embodiments, the holding assembly 20 includes a mounting base 21, the mounting base 21 is mounted in the mounting cavity 141 of the second inner conductor 14. One end of the mounting base 21 abuts against the first receiving groove 142 of the second inner conductor 14 through a first holding member 22, and the other end of the mounting base 21 abuts against the second receiving groove 151 of the third inner conductor 15 through a second holding member 23. Wherein, at least one of the first holding member 22 and the second holding member 23 is connected to the mounting base 21 through a first elastic member 221. A plurality of support members 24 are provided on the outer wall of the mounting base 21, and the support members 24 abut against the inner wall of the second inner conductor 14.

[0086] According to some optional embodiments, an insertion hole 131 is provided at the end of the first inner conductor 13, and a second positioning groove 132 is provided on the inner wall of the insertion hole 131. A telescopic positioning member 143 is correspondingly provided at the insertion end of the second inner conductor 14, and the second positioning groove 132 cooperates with the telescopic positioning member 143.

[0087] Exemplarily, the second inner conductor 14 is provided with a mounting cavity 141 along its axial direction, and the mounting cavity 141 penetrates through one end of the second inner conductor 14 adjacent to the third inner conductor 15. One end of the holding assembly 20 and the third inner conductor 15 are located in the mounting cavity 141, and there is a clearance fit between one end of the third inner conductor 15 and the inner wall of the surrounding mounting cavity 141. The holding assembly 20 includes a mounting base 21, the mounting base 21 is mounted in the mounting cavity 141 of the second inner conductor 14. One end of the mounting base 21 abuts against the first receiving groove 142 of the second inner conductor 14 through a first holding member 22, and the other end of the mounting base 21 abuts against the second receiving groove 151 of the third inner conductor 15 through a second holding member 23. In some optional embodiments, a first receiving groove 142 is provided on the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 141 of the second inner conductor 14, and the shape of the outer wall of the first holding member 22 matches the shape of the first receiving groove 142, so that the first holding member 22 can achieve a more stable abutment in the first receiving groove 142. Similarly, a second receiving groove 151 is provided at the end of the third inner conductor 15, and the shape of the outer wall of the second holding member 23 matches the shape of the second receiving groove 151, so that the second holding member 23 can achieve a more stable abutment in the second receiving groove 151.

[0088] In some alternative embodiments, a first receiving groove 142 is provided on the cavity wall of the installation cavity 141 of the second inner conductor 14. The outer wall of the first retaining member 22 can be fixedly connected to the first receiving groove 142 in a snap - fit, plug - in, splicing or other manner, and the first retaining member 22 is held stationary in the first receiving groove 142.

[0089] Wherein, at least one of the first retaining member 22 and the second retaining member 23 is connected to the mounting base 21 through a first elastic member 221. A plurality of support members 24 are provided on the outer wall of the mounting base 21. The support members 24 are in contact with the inner wall of the second inner conductor 14. The plurality of support members 24 are evenly spaced on the outer wall of the support member 24, so that the support of the mounting base 21 is more stable. In some alternative embodiments, the support members 24 can be distributed in one or two circles along the circumferential direction of the outer wall of the mounting base 21. When the support members 24 are distributed in multiple circles on the outer wall of the mounting base 21, the support members 24 on adjacent two circles are arranged in a staggered manner.

[0090] Optionally, the first elastic member 221 is a spring.

[0091] Specifically, at least one of the first retaining member 22 and the second retaining member 23 is connected to the mounting base 21 through a first elastic member 221, including three cases:

[0092] In the first case, only the first retaining member 22 is connected to the mounting base 21 through the first elastic member 221, and the second retaining member 23 is fixedly connected to the second receiving groove 151. In this application, the initial state of the first elastic member 221 is a compressed state, applying pressure to the first retaining member 22. The support member 24 can be in contact with and slide along the inner wall of the second inner conductor 14. When the connector is in use, when the cable is rotated or pulled by an external force, it will drive the third inner conductor 15 connected thereto to rotate or move away from the second inner conductor 14. At this time, under the pressure applied by the first elastic member 221, the first retaining member 22 always remains in contact with the first receiving groove 142, and the support member 24 slides along the direction close to the third inner conductor 15, providing a moving direction and a supporting force for the mounting base 21 and the first elastic member 221, avoiding the shaking of the first elastic member 221, and thus ensuring that the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 are always connected through the holding assembly 20 to achieve continuous signal transmission.

[0093] In the second case, only the second retaining member 23 is connected to the mounting base 21 through the first elastic member 221. The first retaining member 22 is fixedly connected to the first receiving groove 142. The initial state of the first elastic member 221 is a compressed state, applying a pressure to the second retaining member 23. When the connector is in use, when the cable is rotated or pulled by an external force, it will drive the third inner conductor 15 connected thereto to also rotate or move away from the second inner conductor 14. At this time, under the pressure applied by the first elastic member 221, the second retaining member 23 always remains in contact with the second receiving groove 151. The support member 24 can be stationary relative to the inner wall of the second inner conductor 14, providing a support force to the mounting base 21 and the first elastic member 221, so that the signal between the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 can be stably transmitted.

[0094] In the third case, the first retaining member 22 is connected to the mounting base 21 through the first elastic member 221, and the second retaining member 23 is also connected to the mounting base 21 through the first elastic member 221. The initial state of the first elastic member 221 is a compressed state, applying pressures to the first retaining member 22 and the second retaining member 23 respectively. When the connector is in use, when the cable is rotated or pulled by an external force, it will drive the third inner conductor 15 connected thereto to also rotate or move away from the second inner conductor 14. At this time, the support member 24 abuts against the inner wall of the second inner conductor 14. Under the pressure applied by the first elastic member 221, the first retaining member 22 abuts against the first receiving groove 142, and the second retaining member 23 abuts against the second receiving groove 151, realizing a firm connection between the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 and stable transmission of the signal.

[0095] Therefore, the present application provides a rotatable radio frequency coaxial connector, including a first inner conductor 13, a second inner conductor 14, and a third inner conductor 15. One end of the second inner conductor 14 is inserted into the first inner conductor 13, and the other end is connected to the third inner conductor 15 through a retaining assembly 20. Specifically, one end of the retaining assembly 20 is connected to the second inner conductor 14 through the first retaining member 22, and the other end is connected to the third inner conductor 15 through the second retaining member 23. The first retaining member 22 and / or the second retaining member 23 are connected to the mounting base 21 through the first elastic member 221. Under the pressure of the first elastic member 221, the first retaining member 22 and the second retaining member 23 are respectively in contact with the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15. At the same time, a support member 24 is provided to abut against the inner wall of the mounting cavity 141, providing a support force to the mounting base 21, ensuring the consistency of the direction of the pressure of the first elastic member 221 and reducing the loss of the pressure. Through the setting of the retaining assembly 20, when the cable moves, the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 are always in good contact, the signal transmission is stable, and the retaining assembly 20 will not cause scratches on the inner walls of the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15, facilitating installation and disassembly.

[0096] According to some optional embodiments, an installation groove 211 is provided on the outer wall of the mounting base 21. One end of the support member 24 is rotatably installed in the installation groove 211 through a rotating shaft 241. The rotating shaft 241 is detachably installed in the installation groove 211, which facilitates its installation and disassembly. In this application, when the number of support members 24 is multiple, one rotating shaft 241 is correspondingly provided for one support member 24; the rotation direction is the x direction. On both sides of the support member 24 in the rotation direction of the support member 24, they are respectively connected to the inner wall of the installation groove 211 through second elastic members 242.

[0097] In some optional embodiments, receiving grooves 2111 are respectively provided on the relatively distributed inner walls of the installation groove 211 along the x-axis direction. One end of the second elastic members 242 located on both sides of the support member 24 is fixedly installed in the receiving grooves 2111, and the other end is fixedly connected to the side wall of the support member 24.

[0098] In some optional embodiments, a third guiding surface 1411 is provided on the cavity wall of the installation cavity 141 close to the third inner conductor 15. The third guiding surface 1411 is an inclined surface.

[0099] In some optional embodiments, the end of the support member 24 that abuts against the inner wall of the second inner conductor 14 is an arc surface. Specifically, the shape of the end of the support member 24 that abuts against the inner wall of the second inner conductor 14 matches the shape of the inner wall of the second inner conductor 14.

[0100] During the installation of the connector, when the holding assembly 20 is assembled into the second inner conductor 14, the end of the support member 24 first abuts against the third guiding surface 1411. At this time, the support member 24 receives the abutting force of the third guiding surface 1411, and the support member 24 swings in the direction opposite to the direction of entering the second inner conductor 14. At this time, the support member 24 slides along the third guiding surface 1411 into a preset position in the installation cavity 141. In this application, through the setting of the third guiding surface 1411, the support member 24 can be smoothly installed into the installation cavity 141 under the guidance of the third guiding surface 1411. When the support member 24 passes through the third guiding surface 1411, it will return to the initial position under the action of the second elastic member 242, and one end of the second elastic member 242 abuts against the installation cavity 141, so that the holding assembly 20 can be more firmly installed in the installation cavity 141.

[0101] In some optional embodiments, the height of the support member 24 along the y direction can be telescopic. For example, the support member 24 includes a first support member and a second support member, and the first support member and the second support member are connected by a spring. When the holding assembly 20 or the second inner conductor 14 undergoes a displacement along the y direction, the support member 24 can be telescopic in the y direction and always keep abutting against the installation cavity 141.

[0102] In some alternative embodiments, the support member 24 is fixedly installed in the installation groove 211, or the support member 24 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the mounting base 21.

[0103] According to some alternative embodiments, a first positioning groove is provided on the inner wall of the second inner conductor 14, and one end of the support member 24 away from the mounting base 21 is fixedly abutted in the first positioning groove.

[0104] In the above solution, the first positioning groove can be a groove or a sliding groove, and the sliding groove extends along the x direction.

[0105] When the holding assembly 20 is in the first case, only the first holding member 22 is connected to the mounting base 21 through the first elastic member 221, the second holding member 23 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 21, and the end of the second holding member 23 abuts or is fixedly connected to the second receiving groove 151. At this time, the first positioning groove is a sliding groove. When the connector is in use, when the cable is rotated or pulled by an external force, it will drive the third inner conductor 15 connected thereto to rotate or move away from the second inner conductor 14. At this time, under the pressure applied by the first elastic member 221, the first holding member 22 always remains in contact with the first receiving groove 142, the end of the support member 24 abuts against the sliding groove, and slides along the sliding groove in the direction of the third inner conductor 15, ensuring that the pressure applied by the first elastic member 221 to the second holding member 23 remains unchanged in magnitude and direction, so that the second holding member 23 remains connected to the second receiving groove 151, realizing continuous signal transmission.

[0106] When the holding assembly 20 is in the second case, only the second holding member 23 is connected to the mounting base 21 through the first elastic member 221, the first holding member 22 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 21, and the first holding member 22 abuts / fixedly connects to the first receiving groove 142. At this time, the first positioning groove can be a sliding groove or a groove. When the connector is in use, when the cable is rotated or pulled by an external force, it will drive the third inner conductor 15 connected thereto to rotate or move away from the second inner conductor 14. At this time, under the pressure applied by the first elastic member 221, the second holding member 23 always remains in contact with the second receiving groove 151, the end of the support member 24 abuts against the groove or slides along the sliding groove, thereby ensuring that the pressure applied by the second holding member 23 to the first holding member 22 remains unchanged in magnitude and direction, so that the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 are always connected through the holding assembly 20.

[0107] When the component 20 is in the third case, the first holding member 22 is connected to the mounting base 21 through the first elastic member 221, and the second holding member 23 is also connected to the mounting base 21 through the first elastic member 221. At this time, the first positioning groove can be a sliding groove or a groove. When the cable is rotated or pulled by an external force, it will drive the third inner conductor 15 connected thereto to rotate or move away from the second inner conductor 14. At this time, the end of the support member 24 abuts against the groove or slides along the sliding groove. Under the pressure applied by the first elastic member 221, the first holding member 22 abuts against the first receiving groove 142, and the second holding member 23 abuts against the second receiving groove 151, realizing a stable connection between the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 and stable signal transmission.

[0108] According to some alternative embodiments, a telescopic groove 212 is provided at one end of the mounting base 21 close to the third inner conductor 15. One end of the first elastic member 221 is fixedly installed in the telescopic groove 212, and the other end is connected to the fixing groove 231 of the second holding member 23. The first elastic member 221 is used to enable the second holding member 23 to slide in the telescopic groove 212.

[0109] In some alternative embodiments, a telescopic groove 212 is provided at one end of the mounting base 21 close to the second inner conductor 14. One end of the first elastic member 221 is fixedly installed in the telescopic groove 212, and the other end is connected to the fixing groove of the first holding member 22. The first elastic member 221 is used to enable the first holding member 22 to slide in the telescopic groove 212.

[0110] In the above solution, the first holding member 22 and the second holding member 23 move along the telescopic groove 212 respectively under the pressure of the first elastic member 221, and then keep abutting against the first receiving groove 142 and the second receiving groove 151, ensuring the connection between the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 and realizing continuous signal transmission.

[0111] In this application, by installing one end of the first elastic member 221 in the telescopic groove 212 and the other end in the fixing groove 231, when the third inner conductor 15 rotates or moves, the first elastic member 221 can expand and contract along the telescopic groove 212. The telescopic groove 212 will simultaneously provide a supporting force and a direction of expansion and contraction for the first elastic member 221, ensuring the connection between the second inner conductor 14 and the third inner conductor 15 and not scratching the inner wall of the second inner conductor 14. At the same time, the first elastic member 221 can enter the second inner conductor 14 after being externally installed, which is convenient for installation and has a large operating space. The first elastic member 221 is not directly connected to the second inner conductor 14 or the third inner conductor 15, reducing the damage to both and the influence on the transmitted signal.

[0112] According to some optional embodiments, when the first holding member 22 and the second holding member 23 have the same structure, the structure of the second holding member 23 will be taken as an example for explanation. The second holding member 23 includes a contact end that abuts against the second receiving groove 151 and a telescopic end that is connected to the mounting base 21. A stop portion 232 is provided on the outer wall of the telescopic end of the second holding member 23 located in the telescopic groove 212. Preferably, the number of stop portions 232 in this application can be set to 1, 2, 3, etc., which is not limited herein. In this application, two are preferred, and the two stop portions 232 are symmetrically arranged along the axis of the second holding member 23. Optionally, the stop portion 232 is a stop block, and the cross-section of the stop portion 232 is approximately trapezoidal. The stop portion 232 extends along the circumferential direction of the second holding member 23, and a first guiding surface 2321 is provided on the side of the stop portion 232 close to the first holding member 22. The first guiding surface 2321 is connected to the end surface of the telescopic end of the second holding member 23. The first guiding surface 2321 is an inclined surface, and the stop portion 232 can be installed in the telescopic groove 212 through the first guiding surface 2321. A stop surface 2322 is provided on the side of the stop portion 232 opposite to the first guiding surface 2321. When the second holding member 23 slides to the end of the mounting base 21 in the telescopic groove 212, the stop surface 2322 can abut against the step on the inner wall of the telescopic groove 212 to prevent the second holding member 23 from sliding out of the telescopic groove 212.

[0113] In some optional embodiments, a stop groove 213 is provided on the inner wall of the telescopic groove 212, and the stop groove 213 communicates with the telescopic groove 212. The stop groove 213 can be in the y direction. The stop groove 213 can penetrate the outer wall of the mounting base 21 or not, which is not limited herein. The stop portion 232 of the second holding member 23 is located in the stop groove 213 and can slide telescopically along the stop groove 213. When the stop portion 232 moves to a preset position in the stop groove 213, the stop surface 2322 abuts against the inner wall of the stop groove 213, so that the second holding member 23 is held in the telescopic groove 212.

[0114] According to some optional embodiments, a contraction groove 2323 is provided on the outer wall of the end of the telescopic end of the second holding member 23 located in the telescopic groove 212. The contraction groove 2323 extends along the axial direction of the second holding member 23 and penetrates its end.

[0115] In the above solution, the contraction groove 2323 is located between two adjacent stop portions 232. The number of contraction grooves 2323 provided on the outer wall of the second holding member 23 can be one, two, three, etc. In this application, it is preferably set that there are two contraction grooves 2323, and the two contraction grooves 2323 are symmetrically arranged along the axis of the second holding member 23. In this application, when the second holding member 23 is installed into the mounting base 21, the gap of the contraction groove 2323 becomes smaller, and this end can smoothly enter the telescopic groove 212 of the mounting base 21.

[0116] According to some optional embodiments, a notch of the first receiving groove 142 is provided with a limiting portion 1421 , and the limiting portion 1421 is used to keep the first retaining member 22 in the first receiving groove 142 .

[0117] In some optional embodiments, the second receiving groove 151 may have the same structure as the first receiving groove 142 . A notch of the second receiving groove 151 may also be provided with a limiting portion 1421 for retaining the second retaining member 23 in the second receiving groove 151 .

[0118] In the above solution, the limiting portion 1421 can be set as a limiting ring that is continuous along the circumference of the slot, or as a limiting block that is spaced apart along the circumference of the slot. The diameter of the limiting opening formed by the limiting portion 1421 is smaller than the maximum size of the cross section of the first retaining member 22, so that the first retaining member 22 will not be separated from the first accommodating slot 142 during the extension and retraction process, thereby ensuring stable transmission of the signal.

[0119] According to some optional embodiments, an insertion hole 131 is provided at the end of the first inner conductor 13, and the insertion hole 131 is arranged along the x direction. A second positioning groove 132 is provided on the inner wall of the insertion hole 131, and the number of the second positioning grooves 132 is not limited. A telescopic positioning piece 143 corresponding to the second positioning groove 132 is provided on the outer wall of the end of the second inner conductor 14 inserted into the first inner conductor 13, and the second positioning groove 132 and the telescopic positioning piece 143 are engaged with each other, so that the connection between the second inner conductor 14 and the first inner conductor 13 is more stable, thereby ensuring the stable transmission of signals between the two. Exemplarily, the telescopic positioning member 143 includes a spring and a ball, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second inner conductor 14, and the other end is fixedly connected to the ball. When the second inner conductor 14 is inserted into the first inner conductor 13 along the insertion hole 131, the ball in the telescopic positioning member 143 will enter the second positioning groove 132 under the action of the spring, and vibration or sound will be generated at this time. The operator can judge that the second inner conductor 14 is installed in place in the first inner conductor 13 through the sensed vibration and sound, and cancel the thrust applied to the second inner conductor 14 to avoid excessive thrust and damage to the second inner conductor 14 and the first inner conductor 13.

[0120] According to some optional embodiments, the insertion hole 131 has a second guide surface 133, the second guide surface 133 is an inclined surface, and the shape of the insertion hole 131 is a trumpet shape. When the second inner conductor 14 is plugged and installed with the first inner conductor 13, the insertion end of the second inner conductor 14 can quickly and smoothly enter the insertion hole 131 along the second guide surface 133.

[0121] In some optional embodiments, the shape of the insertion end of the second inner conductor 14 matches the shape of the insertion hole 131 so that after the second inner conductor 14 is inserted into the first inner conductor 13, the two can be tightly connected.

[0122] According to some optional embodiments, interference grooves 134 are provided on the second guiding surface 133. The interference grooves 134 can be arranged in multiple numbers along the x direction and are spaced on the second guiding surface 133. At corresponding positions on the outer wall of the insertion end of the second inner conductor 14, interference protrusions 144 are provided. The interference protrusions 144 cooperate with the interference grooves 134, thereby realizing a firm connection between the first inner conductor 13 and the second inner conductor 14, preventing the second inner conductor 14 from detaching from the first inner conductor 13, and ensuring stable signal transmission.

[0123] In this application, since the first inner conductor 13, the second inner conductor 14, and the third inner conductor 15 are all installed in

[0124] the first outer conductor 10, the first outer conductor 10 rotates relative to the second outer conductor 30, and the first inner conductor 13 and the second inner conductor 14 can be fixedly connected or rotatably connected.

[0125] When the first inner conductor 13 and the second inner conductor 14 are fixedly connected, the second positioning grooves 132 are multiple grooves spaced circumferentially on the inner wall of the insertion hole 131. The telescopic positioning members 143 are embedded in the grooves, and the interference grooves 134 are multiple grooves spaced circumferentially along the second guiding surface 133, not annular grooves. The corresponding interference protrusions 144 are also bumps spaced circumferentially along the insertion end of the second inner conductor 14. The interference protrusions 144 are in snap-fit with the interference grooves 134. Through such a setting, the rotation of the first inner conductor 13 relative to the second inner conductor 14 and the movement in the x direction can be restricted. When the first outer conductor 10 rotates, the first inner conductor 13 and the second inner conductor 14 rotate simultaneously with the first outer conductor 10, and a tight electrical connection is still maintained between the first inner conductor 13 and the second inner conductor 14.

[0126] When the first inner conductor 13 and the second inner conductor 14 are rotatably connected, the second positioning grooves 132 are annular closed grooves provided on the inner wall circumference of the insertion hole 131. The telescopic positioning members 143 can rotate circumferentially along the second positioning grooves 132; at the same time, the interference grooves 134 are annular grooves provided on the circumference of the second guiding surface 133, and the corresponding interference protrusions 144 are annular protrusions. The interference protrusions 144 can be embedded in the interference grooves 134 and rotate circumferentially relative to the interference grooves 134. Through such a setting, the first inner conductor 13 and the second inner conductor 14 can rotate, but will not move in the x direction, realizing that when the first outer conductor 10 rotates, the first inner conductor 13 can rotate relative to the second inner conductor 14, while the second inner conductor 14 does not rotate, and the first inner conductor 13 will not detach from the second inner conductor 14, avoiding the instability of signal transmission caused by the simultaneous rotation of multiple components.

[0127] According to some optional embodiments, the cable welding sleeve 70 is welded to the cable. The cable welding sleeve 70 and the third outer conductor 60 are sleeved, and the third outer conductor 60 is sleeved on the cable welding sleeve 70. The third outer conductor 60 and the second outer conductor 30 can be connected by crimping or threaded connection.
