Patent attributes
A connector includes a plug connector and a mating connector. The plug connector includes a housing with an open front end, an insulated inner conductor disposed within the housing, a clamping sleeve, and an axially movable sliding sleeve disposed radially outside the clamping sleeve. The sliding sleeve can be positioned in a working position where it surrounds the clamping sleeve and exerts a radially inward-directed force. The mating connector, which is receivable within the housing, includes a clamping surface. A force Fr introduced radially from the sliding sleeve toward the clamping sleeve when the sliding sleeve is in the working position, is redirected by the clamping sleeve into an axial force component Fa which is introduced from the clamping sleeve toward the clamping surface.
