Embodiment
Refer to Fig. 1, Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, the optical communication module 10 of the embodiment of the present invention comprises lens unit 11, circuit board 12, processing unit 13, luminescence unit 14, light receiving unit 15, second optical fiber 16 and the first optical fiber 17.
Wherein, processing unit 13, luminescence unit 14 and light receiving unit 15 are electrically arranged on the circuit board 12 and processing unit 13 is electrically connected luminescence unit 14 and light receiving unit 15 to control duty, and the second optical fiber 16 is positioned at the relative both sides of lens unit 11 with the first optical fiber 17.
The light that luminescence unit 14 sends enters the second optical fiber 16 and transmits after lens unit 11, first optical fiber 17 transmit light after lens unit 11 receive by light receiving unit 15.
Circuit board 12 can be hardboard or soft board, and luminescence unit 14 can be light emitting diode (LED) or laser diode (LD), and light receiving unit 15 is photoelectric detector (PD).
See also Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, lens unit 11 has the first plane of incidence 111, first exit facet 112, first reflecting surface 113, second plane of incidence 114, second exit facet 115 and the second reflecting surface 116.
First reflecting surface 113 and between first plane of incidence 111 and first plane of incidence 111, there are 45 degree of angles respectively, second reflecting surface 116 and between the second exit facet 115 and second plane of incidence 114, there are 45 degree of angles respectively, first plane of incidence 111 and the second exit facet 115 are positioned in same plane, first exit facet 112 is positioned at the relative both sides of first plane of incidence 111 with second plane of incidence 114, and the first reflecting surface 113 and the second reflecting surface 116 intersect vertically.
First plane of incidence 111 has the first entrance lens 1110, first exit facet 112 has the first exit lens 1120, the light that luminescence unit 14 sends incides on the first reflecting surface 113 of lens unit 11 through the first entrance lens 1110, after light is reflected by the first reflecting surface 113 by the first exit lens 1120 from lens unit 11 outgoing, be then coupled into the second optical fiber 16 and transmit.
The number of the first entrance lens 1110 and the first exit lens 1120 is not limited to one of the present embodiment, can be other quantity, and accordingly, the number of the second optical fiber 16 and luminescence unit 14 is also not limited to one of the present embodiment.
Second plane of incidence 114 has the second entrance lens 1140, second exit facet 115 has the second exit lens 1150, the light signal that first optical fiber 17 transmits incides on the second reflecting surface 116 through the second entrance lens 1140, by second exit lens 1150 outgoing from lens unit 11 after being reflected, then received by light receiving unit 15.
In like manner, the quantity of the second entrance lens 1140, second exit lens 1150, light receiving unit 15 and the first optical fiber 17 is also not limited to one of the present embodiment.
Lens unit 11 has the first reflecting surface 113 and the second reflecting surface 116 intersected vertically, light can be reflexed to different directions, also the light from different directions can be reflexed to same direction simultaneously, thus the first optical fiber 17 can be made to be positioned at the relative both sides of lens unit 11 with the second optical fiber 16.
Be understandable that, those skilled in the art also can do other change etc. and be used in design of the present invention, as long as it does not depart from technique effect of the present invention in spirit of the present invention.These changes done according to the present invention's spirit, all should be included within the present invention's scope required for protection.
