Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of radio frequency connectors, in particular to a radio frequency connector with a positioning and guiding function. Background Art

[0002] The accuracy of data transmission by RF connectors is directly related to the connection quality of the connectors. RF connectors are divided into male connectors and female connectors. The male connector consists of a signal connector and an internally threaded connecting tube. One end of the internally threaded tube is rotatably installed on the outer wall of the signal connector, and the female connector is installed with an externally threaded tube. The operator needs to use both hands to operate. After the male and female connectors are initially connected, one hand rotates the internally threaded tube of the male connector and the other hand fixes the female connector. According to the installation standards of the RF connector, the probe of the signal connector needs to enter the signal hole of the female connector in a straight line, so the internally threaded tube of the male connector needs to be rotated to allow the female connector to enter the inside of the male connector.

[0003] However, during the installation process, for the convenience of installation, the operator will subconsciously rotate the female connector so that the female connector quickly enters the male connector. This causes the probe to change from entering the signal hole of the female connector in a straight line to the female connector signal hole and the probe rotating together. The rotation of the female connector signal hole on the outer wall of the probe will cause damage to the outer wall of the probe, thereby affecting the accuracy of the data. Utility Model Content

Therefore, the directional terms used are used to illustrate and understand the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention.

[0014] like Figure 1-2A radio frequency connector with a positioning and guiding function is shown, comprising a male connector 1 and a female connector 2 and a guiding assembly installed at one end of the female connector 2, the male connector 1 is threadedly connected to the female connector 2, an external threaded tube is fixedly installed at one end of the female connector 2, the male connector 1 comprises an internal threaded tube and a signal connector, the internal threaded tube is rotatably connected to the signal connector, the guiding assembly is installed at one end of the female connector 2 away from the male connector 1, the guiding assembly comprises a connecting plate 3, a spring 4, a guide rod 5 and a clamping block 8, the guide rod 5 is arranged in two groups and is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting plate 3, one end of the guide rod 5 is movably connected to the outer wall of the connecting plate 3, the other end of the guide rod 5 is fixedly connected to the clamping block 8 and the clamping block 8 faces the male connector 1.

[0015] The connecting plate 3 has a hole at the center and is sleeved on the end of the female connector 2. A plurality of springs 1 4 are clamped between one end of the female connector 2 and the connecting plate 3. One end of the spring 1 4 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 3. Guide rings 6 are symmetrically fixedly installed on both sides of the outer wall of the connecting plate 3. One end of the guide rod 5 is penetrated inside the guide ring 6. A baffle 12 is fixedly installed on one end of the guide rod 5. The baffle 12 is installed on the side of the guide ring 6 away from the female connector 2 and fits the outer wall of the guide ring 6. A baffle 2 13 is fixedly installed on the other end of the guide rod 5. A spring 2 7 is installed between the baffle 2 13 and the outer wall of the guide ring 6. The spring 2 7 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 5.

[0016] A fixing block 11 is fixedly installed at one end of the guide rod 5 away from the guide ring 6, a clamping block 8 is fixedly installed on the side of the fixing block 11 close to the male joint 1, and an engaging strip 9 is fixedly installed at one end of the clamping block 8 away from the guide rod 5. A notch is provided on the side of the clamping block 8 facing the male joint 1, and a plurality of balls 10 are embedded and installed inside the notch. A fixing rod is fixedly installed inside the notch of the clamping block 8, and the installation direction of the fixing rod is parallel to the guide rod 5, and the fixing rod passes through the plurality of balls 10.

[0017] Embodiment: In the initial state, the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are in a separated state. According to the installation requirements, the internal threaded tube of the male connector 1 and the external threaded tube of the female connector 2 need to be rotated so that the probe of the signal connector in the male connector 1 can be inserted into the female connector 2 in a straight line. The operator rotates the internal threaded tube to initially connect the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, and sets the connecting plate 3 on one end of the female connector 2. The spring 1 4 abuts against the outer wall of the female connector 2. The operator pulls the clamping block 8 to embed the fitting strip 9 in the gap between the signal connector of the male connector 1 and the internal threaded tube. At this time, one end of the spring 1 4 abuts against the outer wall of the female connector 2. The spring 1 4 provides a certain thrust to the female connector 2, so that the connection position of the female connector 2 and the male connector 1 is fixed, and the length of the spring 2 7 is pulled up. Then the operator can rotate the male connector 1 with one hand, and the two groups of balls 10 on both sides of the male connector 1 can apply clamping force to the male connector 1 on both sides. When the male connector 1 rotates, the balls 10 will also rotate with it, and will not interfere with the rotation of the male connector 1. The female connector 2 gradually engages with the male connector 1 through threads, the probe of the signal connector enters the interior of the female connector 2 in a straight line, the connecting plate 3 slides on the guide rod 5 through the guide ring 6, and the spring 7 gradually contracts until the female connector 2 is completely threaded with the male connector 1. The operator then removes the engaging strip 9 to separate the connecting plate 3 and the guide rod 5 from the female connector 2. The clamping block 8 and the engaging strip 9 are both made of plastic and have a certain toughness, so the operator can bend the engaging strip 9 upward at a certain angle to separate it from the male connector 1.

[0018] It should be noted that the parts not covered in the present invention are the same as the prior art or can be implemented by the prior art; the various drives in the present invention can be implemented by corresponding power structures such as cylinders, oil cylinders, electric cylinders, motors, etc. in combination with connecting rods, guide rods, etc., and are not limited to the description in the specification and the structures in the drawings.

[0019] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
