AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Conventional hardline coaxial connectors require torque to secure the center conductor, which can lead to installation errors due to variance in technician experience and unique installation techniques, and are not suitable for modern cables with copper clad aluminum conductors that have similar thermal expansion to the outer conductor.

Method used

A push-to-connect coaxial connector that forms an electrical connection without requiring torque, using a single-body design with a compression portion that engages the coaxial cable center conductor and outer conductor through a mandrel and clamping mechanism, ensuring a secure connection.

Benefits of technology

Provides a simplified and reliable connection process that secures the coaxial cable without axial retention of the center conductor, reducing installation errors and accommodating modern cable materials with similar thermal expansion rates.

Abstract

A device for providing a push-to-connect electro-mechanical coaxial cable coupling connectivity. The device may include a push-to-connect compression portion configured to pushingly engage a coaxial cable so as to form a push-to-connect electrical connection with a coaxial cable center conductor portion of the coaxial cable during operation without requiring a torque force to be applied to form the push-to-connect electrical connection. The push-to-connect electrical connection may include a single-body hardline connection.
