Connector for an element of the coaxial type

Claim 1

An electrical connection between a connecting pin and that part of an electrical conductor which extends within and beyond a metal sheath, the connecting pin having a larger cross-section than said conductor, comprising a sleeve supporting said sheath with its electrical conductor electrically insulated therefrom, said sleeve having a portion surrounding in spaced relation both the extending part of the electrical conductor and an end of the connecting pin, annular clamping means integrally formed with said connecting pin at said end thereof surrounded by said sleeve and being disposed in clamping engagement with said extending part of the conductor, electrically insulating material being disposed within said sleeve and filling the space around said extending part of said conductor and closely surrounding said extending part of the conductor, an axially movable pressure member received at least in part within said sleeve portion and overlying said annular clamping means and applying pressure thereon, and means mounted in relation to said pressure member for moving the latter axially relative to said sleeve and exerting pressure on said annular clamping means and electrically connecting the latter solely with said extending part of the conductor, said annular clamping means comprising an enlarged end section facilitating the connection of the larger cross-sectional connecting pin and the smaller cross-sectional conductor.
