Abstract
A coaxial connector is connected to a leading end of a coaxial cable and is detachably connected to a receptacle. The coaxial connector includes a cylindrical housing including a spring portion having a projection to be fitted in a groove provided on the outer periphery of an outer conductor of the receptacle, a central conductor probe stored in the housing so as to be in contact with an inner terminal of the receptacle, and cylindrical sleeves held on the outer periphery of the housing so as to be movable in the axial direction. The sleeve has lock pieces provided in an upper portion and an annular portion in a lower portion. The lock pieces are in elastic contact with a first engaging portion and a second engaging portion provided on the outer periphery of the housing. The annular portion restricts expansion of the spring portion of the housing. The annular portion of the sleeve does not restrict the spring portion when detached (position A), and restricts expansion of the spring portion when attached (position B).
