ABSTRACT:
The following specification describes a hermophroditic RF connector assembly used on an airline and employing a spring biased registration ring having axially extending teeth with cam surfaces for engagement between teeth on a mating registration ring of another airline connector assembly in response to relative rotation between the rings to align the mating contact surfaces of two mating airlines. A coupling nut on one connector assembly is threaded over the registration ring of the other connector assembly to secure the assemblies and airlines to each other and the coupling nut of one assembly may also be partially threaded over the registration ring of the respective assembly and then used to retract the respective ring against the spring bias to provide facile means to the contact surfaces. A retaining nut on each assembly frictionally engaged with the respective connector body of the assembly enables the coupling nut to be threaded without requiring a special effort to hold the connector body from becoming loose.
