  • Publication number: 20200161731
    Abstract: A coaxial cable includes a center conductor layer; an insulator layer covering a periphery of the center conductor layer; an outer conductor layer covering a periphery of the insulator layer; a separator layer covering a periphery of the outer conductor layer; a radio wave absorbing resin layer covering a periphery of the separator layer; and an outer sheath covering a periphery of the radio wave absorbing resin layer. The radio wave absorbing resin layer is formed of a material in which a magnetic body is mixed into a resin, and the separator layer is formed by winding a tape-shaped member around the periphery of the outer conductor layer so as to overlap without a gap.

  • Patent number: 10651611
    Abstract: An L-type coaxial connector is connected to a coaxial cable including a central conductor and an external conductor, and includes a housing, a bushing, and a socket. The housing includes a housing main body, a back-side section, and a crimp section. The housing main body has a first cut section. The back-side section includes a lid section and an extending section extending from the lid section and above which the external conductor is placed. The crimp section extends from the extending section, and its leading end section is bent so as to be opposed to the extending section such that the coaxial cable is interposed therebetween. The extending section has a second cut section, and a joining member joining the external conductor and the extending section is present inside the second cut section.

  • Publication number: 20140213107
    Abstract: A coaxial connector that can be prevented from being detached from a coaxial cable. A coaxial connector is attached to a coaxial cable including a central conductor, an insulating body having a foam structure or a hollow structure, an outer conductor, and an insulating film. A housing includes a cylindrical part, and a holding part extending from the cylindrical part in the x-axis direction. A bushing is attached to the housing. A socket is located at the center of the cylindrical part in plan view in the z-axis direction, and is connected to the central conductor. The holding part includes a crimp portion that holds the outer conductor, and a crimp portion that holds the insulating film. The crimp portion has a protrusion at a surface which contacts the insulating film.

  • Patent number: 7479849
    Abstract: A dielectric resonator device including a circuit substrate with a top surface provided with transmission lines, and a bottom surface provided with a ground electrode; a dielectric substrate with opposite surfaces that are respectively provided with electrodes having circular openings so as to form a TE010-mode resonator; and an insulating layer disposed between the ground electrode of the circuit substrate and the electrodes of the TE010-mode resonator. The TE010-mode resonator is attached to the circuit substrate with an insulative adhesive. Accordingly, a current path remains unchanged even if the circuit substrate and the TE010-mode resonator are partially disengaged from each other, thereby achieving stable characteristics.

  • Publication number: 20070126534
    Abstract: The present invention provides a dielectric resonator device, an oscillator, and a transmitter-receiver apparatus having stable characteristics while requiring lower manufacturing costs. A circuit substrate 1 has a top surface 1A provided with transmission lines 2, and a bottom surface 1B provided with a ground electrode 3. A dielectric substrate 5 has opposite surfaces 5A, 5B that are respectively provided with electrodes 6 having circular openings 7 so as to form a TE010-mode resonator 4. An insulating layer 8 is disposed between the ground electrode 3 of the circuit substrate 1 and the electrodes 6 of the TE010-mode resonator 4. The TE010-mode resonator 4 is attached to the circuit substrate 1 with an insulative adhesive 9. Accordingly, a current path remains unchanged even if the circuit substrate 1 and the TE010-mode resonator 4 are partially disengaged from each other, thereby achieving stable characteristics.

  • Patent number: 6377132
    Abstract: A filter includes a dielectric resonator, a cavity for holding the dielectric resonator therein, an external connector mounted on the cavity, and a coupling loop connected to the external connector so as to electromagnetically couple with the dielectric resonator. The coupling loop is formed by bending a metal plate nearly into the shape of an L, and is provided with a rib extending in a direction that is not parallel to the bending line.

  • Patent number: 6064284
    Abstract: A long-life highly reliable dielectric resonator, a dielectric filter using the dielectric resonator and a dielectric duplexer, in which the heat accumulated in concave portions is dissipated. The dielectric resonator comprises a frame, a column-shaped dielectric resonant element disposed so as to be integral with the frame at ends thereof, the concave portions formed from the external surface of the frame into the dielectric resonant element in the direction of the axis of the dielectric resonant element, a conductor formed on the overall outer surface of the frame including inside the concave portions, and thermal-conducting means inserted in the concave portions.
