Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of connectors, in particular to a quick-install SMA connector. Background Art
[0002] Connectors, as an important component of electronic devices and systems, are mainly used to connect and disconnect circuits or signals. Connectors play a vital role in the fields of communications, radio, radar, microwave equipment, etc. SMA connectors, as a common RF connector, are named after the English word "Sub-Miniature-A". SMA connectors are widely used in the field of wireless communications for their small size, reliability, and wide frequency range.
[0003] SMA connectors are mainly suitable for 50Ω RF systems. Their structures are usually divided into male and female types, and the styles include standard polarity, reverse polarity (RPSMA / RP-SMA) or reverse thread, etc. SMA connectors are a transmission system with inner and outer conductors centered on the same axis and an insulating medium between the inner and outer conductors. They are used to transmit various radio frequency electromagnetic field signals, connect the various subsystems of the communication system, or conduct signals between various devices. The termination methods of SMA connectors include threaded, clip-on / welded, press-in, crimped / welded, etc. SMA connectors are widely used in semi-rigid, semi-flexible semi-rigid, flexible cables, etc. The body material is usually brass or stainless steel, and the interface types include quick disconnect or standard.
[0004] However, the existing SMA connector is installed on the end plate by matching internal and external threads. The connector port is provided with an internal thread. When installing, the connector is locked after rotating multiple turns. When disassembling, the connector is loosened after rotating the connector in the opposite direction for multiple turns. When installing and disassembling the connector, corresponding rotation is required according to the number of turns of the thread, and special tools are usually required to tighten or loosen it. This not only increases the installation time, but may also cause signal loss or connection failure caused by unstable installation. The installation process is more cumbersome. Secondly, during the frequent disassembly and reinstallation of the existing SMA connector, its thread or bayonet part is prone to wear, resulting in reduced connection stability and even connection failure.
