  • Patent number: 7008256
    Abstract: A coaxial cable connection device comprises a compartment for direct insertion of a previously partially bared end of a coaxial cable to be connected. A contact blade in this compartment is elongate in the same direction as the compartment and spears the coaxial cable between its outer jacket and its shield. The device further comprises a contact terminal with which the central core of the coaxial cable is engaged, a base of which the contact blade is part, and a cap fixed to the base in a closed position of the device and comprising a retaining member in the immediate vicinity of the contact blade in the closed position. The retaining member, in the closed position, grips the outer insulative jacket of a cable speared on the blade on the side opposite the blade.

  • Patent number: 5871378
    Abstract: A connection unit for transmission networks includes contact members which cooperate with a conjugate connection unit and connection terminals in an insulative material body, each of which is individually connected to the contact members by electrical conductors and each of which includes at least one connection unit having a circumferentially elongate slot around an axis. A barrel coaxially associated with two connection units circumferentially staggered around one such axis is rotatable about said axis and forces an electrical wire into the slot of each of the connection members. To this end the barrel has, in corresponding relationship to the slot of each of the connection units, a passage adapted to have an electrical wire of this kind engaged in it.
