Abstract

The invention relates to a coaxial connector element capable of coupling by translation along a coupling direction (23) with an associated coaxial electric connector element and comprising an electrically conductive outer body (8) intended to serve as outer conductor, a central conductor (11), fixed with respect to the outer body and located within the body and insulated from it and, on a face known as the coupling face of the connector element, a coaxial contact element comprising an outer contact (14) connected to the outer conductor, which is constituted by the body, and a central contact (12) connected to the central conductor. It comprises, between the outer contact (14) and the body (8) or between the central contact and the central conductor, an articulation, which permits the contact in question (14) to orient itself without being deformed in different directions forming an angle other than zero with the direction of coupling (23) of the connector element.
