Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An electrical connector assembly includes: a housing having a base, a body extending rearward from the base, and a hole through the base and the body, the hole including a first part of a first diameter, a second part of a second diameter greater than the first diameter, and a step portion between the first part and the second part; a connector received by the housing, the connector having an insulating member, an inner conductor, and an outer conductor received by the first part of the hole, the outer conductor having plural tabs received by the second part of the hole; and a metal plate confining the tabs to the second part of the hole.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. An electrical connector assembly comprising: a housing having a base, a body extending rearward from the base, and a hole through the base and the body, the hole including a first part of a first diameter, a second part of a second diameter greater than the first diameter, and a step portion between the first part and the second part; a connector received by the housing, the connector having an insulating member, an inner conductor, and an outer conductor received by the first part of the hole, the outer conductor having a plurality of tabs received by the second part of the hole; and a metal plate confining the plurality of tabs to the second part of the hole. 2. The electrical connector as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the metal plate presses the plurality of tabs against the step portion of the hole. 3. The electrical connector as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hole includes a third part and a step section between the second part and the third part thereof, and the metal plate is secured to the step section. 4. The electrical connector as claimed in claim 3 , further comprising a sealing member formed in the third part of the hole. 5. The electrical connector as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of tabs has a front face and a rear face in contact with the metal plate and the step portion of the hole, respectively. 6. The electrical connector as claimed in claim 1 , wherein both the insulating member and the inner conductor of the connector extend rearward beyond the outer conductor. 7. The electrical connector as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the body of the housing has an inserting chamber and an inner cylindrical wall extending rearward in the inserting chamber.
