Abstract

An aim of the present invention is, in a plug for high frequency emission disposed at an end of a casing having an emission antenna, to suppress a high frequency noise emitted from the emission antenna. The present invention is directed to a plug for high frequency emission including a transmission line for transmitting an electromagnetic wave, an emission antenna for emitting the electromagnetic wave supplied via the transmission line, and a casing constituted by a cylindrical shaped conductor, provided with the emission antenna at one end of the casing, and accommodating therein the transmission line extending from the emission antenna toward the other end of the casing. Inside of the casing, a central conductor electrically connected to the emission antenna and an outer conductor spaced apart from and surrounding the central conductor are embedded in an insulator so as to collectively constitute the transmission line, and the outer conductor is disposed in and held in non-contact with the casing.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A plug for high frequency emission, comprising:
a central conductor and an outer conductor which is located apart from and surrounding the central conductor, which constitute a transmission line part of the plug for transmitting an electromagnetic wave;
an emission antenna electrically connected to the central conductor and configured to emit the electromagnetic wave supplied via the transmission line;
an insulator;
a casing constituted by a cylindrical shaped conductor and housing therein the central conductor, the outer conductor, and the insulator, where the emission antenna is provided at one end of the casing, and accommodating the transmission line that extends from the emission antenna toward the other end of the casing, wherein
inside of the casing, each of the central conductor and the outer conductor is embedded in the insulator throughout the transmission line part, such that the outer conductor is disposed in the casing in a manner to be held in non-contact with the casing by being embedded in the insulator; and,
wherein a plate-like conductor is embedded between the emission antenna and the outer conductor in the insulator of the transmission line in a manner to be held in non-contact with the central conductor without electrically connecting between the outer conductor and the casing, the plate-like conductor being greater in area than an end surface of the outer conductor on a side of the emission antenna.

2. The plug for high frequency emission according to claim 1 , wherein the plate-like conductor is formed in a shape of a ring or a letter C, and is embedded in the insulator in a manner to surround the central conductor.
