Abstract: A probe fitting structure includes a connector to be inspected and a probe capable of being fitted to the connector. The connector includes a plurality of connection electrodes. The probe includes a flange having a through hole and used for attaching the probe to a device, a coaxial cable extending through the through hole and including a leading end portion to which a probe pin is attached, a plunger including a leading end through which the probe pin is exposed, and a spring housing the coaxial cable between the flange and the plunger and including a first end portion fixed to the flange and a second end portion fixed to the plunger. The plunger includes a plunger-side fitting portion in a leading end portion of the plunger. The connector includes a connector-side fitting portion (opening portion) capable of being fitted to the plunger-side fitting portion.

Abstract: A probe for characteristic inspection of a connector includes a plunger, a coaxial cable, a flange, and a housing having an end portion on one side including an increased diameter portion. A recessed portion which receives the increased diameter portion is in an upper surface of the flange. The increased diameter portion has side walls in contact with or facing respective inner side surfaces of the flange partly, with the inner side surfaces forming the recessed portion, and a bottom wall in contact with an upper recessed surface of the flange that forms the recessed portion. The increased diameter portion has connection surfaces connecting the bottom and side walls and inclined inward from one of the side walls toward the bottom wall. Alternatively, the inner side surfaces each have a first surface inclined downward, and a vertical surface extending downward from the first surface to the upper recessed surface.

Abstract: A probe structure for inspecting characteristics of a connector having at least one terminal includes a plunger, a coaxial probe, a flange, a housing, and a spring. A first end portion of the housing and the flange are configured to restrict rotation of the housing in the circumferential direction in a state in which the first end portion of the housing is fitted into the through-hole of the flange. Thus, inspection of characteristics of the terminal of the connector can be performed with higher accuracy.

Abstract: A probe for inspecting characteristics of a terminal of a multipolar connector includes a flange having a through hole and serving to mount the probe to a facility; and a coaxial cable inserted through the through hole of the flange, extending in an axial direction, and having an end portion at which a probe pin is mounted. The probe also includes a plunger containing the probe pin and having a recess for fitting the multipolar connector, with the probe pin being exposed in the recess. The probe further includes a spring containing the coaxial cable between the flange and the plunger and having an end portion fixed to the flange and another end portion fixed to the plunger.

Abstract: A test coaxial connector has a probe portion with a small height, and prevents breakage of a switch-equipped coaxial connector even when the test coaxial connector is not properly fitted to the switch-equipped coaxial connector. The test coaxial connector includes a housing and a probe housed in the housing. The probe is formed of one continuous structure having elasticity, the structure including a contact at or near an end portion of the structure and including, at or near another end portion of the structure, a connection portion to which a central conductor of a coaxial cable is to be connected.

Abstract: A switch-equipped connector that can reduce the occurrence of intermodulation distortion includes a first terminal, a second movable terminal, and a magnet provided at a position distant from the first and second terminals. At least one of the first and the second terminal has a magnetic metal and the second terminal is configured to come into and out of contact with the first terminal.

Abstract: A coaxial connector plug and a coaxial connector receptacle that may be stably suctioned by a suction nozzle. A coaxial connector receptacle including a substantially cylindrical outer conductor and a center conductor surrounded by the outer conductor is mountable to a coaxial connector plug. An outer conductor has a substantially cylindrical shape extending in the z-axis direction, and is provided with a slit that connects between the upper end and the lower end of the outer conductor. A center conductor is surrounded by the outer conductor. A projection is positioned in the slit. The outer conductor of the coaxial connector receptacle is inserted into the outer conductor from the negative side in the z-axis direction. The center conductor of the coaxial connector receptacle is connected to the center conductor.

Abstract: An outer conductor has a substantially cylindrical shape extending in an axial direction. A center conductor has a substantially cylindrical shape extending in the axial direction, and is provided inside the outer conductor. An insulator fixes the center conductor relative to the outer conductor. The center conductor is provided with a hole that communicates with the inside and the outside of the center conductor. The insulator extends, via the hole, to the inside of the center conductor from the outside.

Abstract: An outer conductor portion includes an outer conductor and a pair of outer terminals. The outer conductor is formed into a substantially cylindrical shape extending in the z-axis direction. The outer terminals are drawn toward the positive z-axis direction side of the outer conductor. In a plan view in the z-axis direction, the outer terminals are each bent in a direction outwardly from the outer conductor, and face each other across the outer conductor. An insulator has two sides, an upper surface in contact with a positive z-axis direction-side end portion of the outer conductor, and a lower surface in contact with the outer terminals at the sides, and thereby is nipped by the outer conductor portion in the z-axis direction. A central conductor is attached to the insulator, and is provided in a region surrounded by the outer conductor.
