A flexible shaft for torque transfer has a plurality of metal wires that are helically wound in a plurality of layers with an opposite winding direction that alternates from layer to layer. Each of the metal wires is surrounded by an electrically insulating insulation layer. The insulating layer prevents a metal-on-metal contact between adjacent metal wires and thereby prevents unwanted intermodulation products.

An improved antenna device has an internal length compensation device, permitting a varying length expansion of the housing/radome in relation to the antenna support or reflector device located within the housing/radome. At least one of at least two internal fixing devices is provided with the internal length compensation device. The internal length compensation device is in at least two parts or has two limbs, wherein one part is fixed to the antenna support and/or reflector device and the other part is at least indirectly fixed to the housing/radome and/or supported thereby. The at least two parts can be moved relative to each other, be moved in position or deformed. In particular with relation to the support points of both parts, the position may be changed with common deformation.

Antenna device

An improved antenna device is has an external length compensation device, permitting a differing length expansion of the housing/radome relative to at least one of the at least two external mounting devices for fixing the antenna device. At least one of the two mounting devices has an external length compensation device, which covers at least one mounting device and a guide device by means of which the housing/radome may be adjusted relative to the mounting device in one direction of the antenna housing/radome. At least for one path length and the external length compensation device with the guide device is designed such that even with fastened screws, play remains between a section of the housing/radome and a section of the mounting device in order to permit an unhindered compensation movement between the mounting device and the housing/radome.

The invention relates to an electrical terminal connection, especially for connecting an outer conductor of a coaxial cable, characterized by the following novel developments: the electrical terminal connection is embodied in a two-stage manner; the plug-in element comprises at least two plug-in sections which are staggered in the plug-in and axial direction, both the first plug-in section in the plug-in direction and the following plug-in section being provided with a knurl on the outer periphery thereof; the receiving opening comprises a first receiving section and a second receiving section which are staggered in the plug-in and axial direction of the plug-in element; and the cross-sectional size of the two plug-in sections and the two complementary receiving sections differs in that the radial dimension or outer dimension of the plug-in sections provided with the knurl is slightly larger than the radial or outer dimension of the receiving section respectively co-operating therewith.

An improved antenna arrangement is subdivided at least into an upper antenna section and at least one lower antenna section. The upper section has a mounting core, the antenna elements and a radome. At least one lower antenna section is axially adjacent underneath the upper section. The lower antenna section is equipped as a service zone which has at least one access opening, which runs in the circumferential direction, to the internal area in the service zone. The radome is held and anchored elastically via at least two damping arrangements, which are offset with respect to one another in the axial direction, and/or via damping device, which are offset with respect to one another.
