Abstract

An electrical coaxial connector comprising a body made of insulator to be put on a circuit board, a signal-joining contacting conductor held by the body, and a grounding contacting conductor formed into a cylindrical shape and held also by the body for surrounding the signal-joining contacting conductor on the circuit board, wherein the grounding contacting conductor has an arm portion extending toward the circuit board from one of ring-shaped ends of the grounding contacting conductor, which is more distant from the circuit board than the other, a grounding terminal portion is formed at an end of the arm portion to be soldered to a ground-potential terminal provided on the circuit board, and each of the grounding contacting conductor and the arm portion is resilient.

Claims (8)

1. An electrical coaxial connector comprising;

a body made of insulator to be put on a circuit board,

a signal-joining contacting conductor held by the body and provided with a signal-joining terminal portion to be connected to a signal terminal provided on the circuit board, and

a grounding contacting conductor formed into a cylindrical shape and held also by the body for surrounding the signal-joining contacting conductor on the circuit board, said grounding contacting conductor having an upper ring-shaped end and a lower ring-shaped end, the lower ring-shaped end being closer to the circuit board than the upper ring-shaped end, the lower and upper ring-shaped ends being opposite to each other in a direction perpendicular to the circuit board,

wherein the grounding contacting conductor further includes an arm portion extending upwardly from an edge of the upper ring-shaped end of the grounding contacting conductor and downwardly toward the circuit board, a horizontal grounding terminal portion extended inwardly and toward the grounding contacting conductor is formed at a lower end of the arm portion to be soldered to a ground-potential terminal provided on the circuit board, and each of the grounding contacting conductor and the arm portion is made of resilient conductive material,

wherein a plurality of arm portions are provided on the upper ring-shaped end of the grounding contacting conductor.

2. An electrical coaxial connector according to claim 1 , wherein a pair of arm portions, at an end of each of which the grounding terminal portion is formed, are positioned to be opposite to each other so that the signal-joining contacting conductor held by the body is put between the arm portions.

3. An electrical coaxial connector according to claim 1 , wherein a slit is provided on the grounding contacting conductor for extending from the upper ring-shape end to the lower ring-shaped end of the grounding contacting conductor at a position between the arm portions.
