  • Patent number: 5509818
    Abstract: A BNC T-type adaptor includes an insulating housing which has a horizontal conducting portion with left and right parts therein, an elongated grounding unit and two insulator units sleeved around and positioning the horizontal conducting portion and the grounding unit within the insulating housing. Each of the left and right parts has a contact unit and a resilient conducting strip which is integral with an end portion of the horizontal conducting portion and which extends axially and inwardly from the contact unit. The resilient conducting strip has a distal end which normally contacts the grounding unit. Each of the insulator units cooperates with one of the left and right parts of the horizontal conducting portion and defines an annular receiving space therearound. Each of the insulator units has a circumferential wall body which defines an axial bore therethrough and which receives a corresponding one of the contact units therein.

  • Patent number: 5368494
    Abstract: A BNC T-type adapter includes a lower female conducting portion, an upper male conducting portion which is connected electrically to the female conducting portion, a grounding unit, and an insulating housing which is sleeved around the female conducting portion and which confines the grounding unit therein such that the grounding unit is disposed below the female conducting portion. The female conducting portion includes an elongated conducting plate with two outer ends, each of which is formed with a clamping unit for clamping stationarily a male conductor. The elongated conducting plate further has two opposite slanted resilient conducting strips, each one of which being formed by punching the elongated conducting plate at a location inwardly of the clamping unit so that each of the slanted resilient conducting strips has an outer joint end that is connected to the elongated conducting plate and an inner free end that extends inwardly and downwardly and that normally contacts the grounding unit.

  • Patent number: 5312272
    Abstract: A BNC T-type adapter includes a T-shaped hollow housing with a common branch and left and right branches that extend from two sides of the common branch and that are communicated with the common branch. The common branch has a twist-lock member secured thereon. An internal conductor is disposed in the housing and includes a vertical conductor that extends into the common branch and a horizontal conductor that is connected to the vertical conductor and that has left and right parts which extend respectively into the left and right branches. Two insulator units are sleeved respectively around the left and right parts to position properly the horizontal conductor within the housing. The horizontal conductor further has a plate-like intermediate part provided with a retaining projection that protrudes upwardly therefrom and a pair of rectangular plates that project upwardly from two sides thereof. Each of the rectangular plates is formed with an inwardly and downwardly inclining resilient fin.
