  • Publication number: 20040033711
    Abstract: A connector assembly is provided, including a first connector body, and a rotating coupler rotatably secured to the first connector body having at least two securing members. A second connector body is also included, having at least two partially helical securing grooves formed about circumferential portions of an outer surface of the second connector body. Each of the helical securing grooves has an entry end and a terminal end. Upon assembly, the securing members enter an entry end of a respective securing groove and engage an upper axial surface thereof as the rotating coupler is rotated, and each securing member travels along the upper axial surfaces of the securing grooves toward the terminal ends thereof to securely couple the first and the second connector bodies to one another.

  • Patent number: 6692262
    Abstract: A connector assembly for coupling a plurality of coaxial cables to a substrate, including a housing adapted to be removably attached to a first area of a substrate, the housing having a first wall with an array of holes formed therethrough, and connector bodies releasably retained within the housing in substantial alignment with the array of holes. Each connector body includes a bore extending therethrough, an insulator fixed within the bore, and a center contact releasably positioned within a central bore formed in the insulator. A coaxial cable segment is operatively connected to each of the connector bodies, and each coaxial cable segment includes a center conductor fixed to the center contact and an outer shielding conductor fixed to the connector body. Each of the coaxial cable segments extends outwardly from the housing and has a distal end adapted to be connected to another area of the circuit board.

  • Patent number: 6544062
    Abstract: An array of coaxial cable connectors includes a generally cylindrical-shaped first female member with an inner surface having at least one set of left-hand threads adapted to engage complementary threads on a first male port. A generally cylindrical-shaped second female member has an inner surface including at least one set of right-hand threads adapted to engage complementary threads on a second male port. A mounting member allows for rotation of each of the first and second female members about their respective longitudinal axes while maintaining a portion of the outer surface of the first female member (preferably configured as a gear) in contact with a portion of the outer surface of the second female member (preferably configured as a complementary gear). In operation, rotation of the first female member about its longitudinal axis results in a corresponding rotation of the second female member about its longitudinal axis.
