Detailed Description

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

Referring to fig. 1 to 3, an embodiment of the optical transceiver module 100 with an unlocking device of the present invention is illustrated, which is suitable for being inserted into the cage 2 and allowing the optical fiber 9 to be inserted therein. The optical transceiver module 100 may be, for example, an XFP optical transceiver module, and has a housing 1, an unlocking device 10 provided in the housing 1, a receiver (not shown) provided in the housing 1, and a transmitter (not shown) provided in the housing 1. The receiver is used for receiving the optical signal from one of the optical fibers 9 to complete the optical-electrical conversion of the optical signal, and the transmitter is used for transmitting the optical signal to the other optical fiber 9 after completing the electrical-optical conversion of the electrical signal.

Referring to fig. 1, 3 and 4, the housing 1 is substantially rectangular and has a bottom wall 11, two side walls 12 connecting the bottom wall 11, a top wall 13 connecting the two side walls 12 and the bottom wall 11, a butt end 14, a terminal 15 opposite to the butt end 14, and two slots 16 opened at the butt end 14 for inserting the optical fibers 9. Each side wall 12 is recessed to form a sliding groove 121 and a limiting groove 122 recessed from the bottom surface of the sliding groove 121 and communicating the sliding groove 121 and opening downward to the bottom wall 11, and the housing 1 is inserted into the cage 2. The cage 2 has a bottom wall 21 corresponding to the bottom wall 11 of the housing 1, side walls 22 corresponding to the two side walls 12, and a top wall 23 corresponding to the top wall 13, and the bottom wall 21, the side walls 22, and the top wall 23 surround and define a front opening 24 for exposing the docking end 14. The two side wall portions 22 are respectively provided with two elastic pieces 221 extending obliquely toward the sliding groove 121, and in the present embodiment, the elastic pieces 221 are formed by punching a tongue piece with a backward end out of a local area of the side wall portion 22 and bending the tongue piece inwards. The unlocking device 10 is an integrally formed component including a pair of slide arms 3 and a connecting plate 4.

Referring to fig. 1, 3 and 5, the pair of sliding arms 3 are respectively movably disposed in the sliding slot 121 of the housing 1, and each sliding arm 3 has a horizontal extending portion 31, a bending portion 32 vertically bending and extending from the horizontal extending portion 31, a top portion 33 protruding from an end of the horizontal extending portion 31 opposite to the bending portion 32, and a limiting leg portion 34 extending from the horizontal extending portion 31 into the limiting groove 122. The horizontal extension portion 31 and the bent portion 32 are L-shaped in side view, and the horizontal extension portion 31 has a horizontal section 311 connected to the bent portion 32 and an inclined section 312 extending from the horizontal section 311 toward the housing 1. The abutting portion 33 is formed at the end of the inclined section 312, and extends in an approximately arc shape from the inclined section 312 of the sliding arm 3 to bend outward in a direction away from the housing 1. The limiting feet 34 extend from the horizontal sections 311 of the horizontal extension part 31 to face each other and extend downwards into the limiting groove 122, and the width between the two limiting feet 34 is narrower than the width between the two horizontal sections 311. The two limiting feet 34 extend into the limiting grooves 122 on the two side walls 12 of the housing 1 and can move in the limiting grooves 122, and the limiting grooves 122 can also play a role of limiting the sliding arm 3 in the sliding groove 121, because if the unlocking device 10 is to be separated from the housing 1, the sliding arm 3 must be pulled upwards and outwards first, so that the limiting feet 34 are separated from the limiting grooves 122. The abutting portion 33 can abut against the elastic piece 221 of the cage 2, so that the housing 1 is locked to the cage 2. The two ends of the connecting plate 4 are respectively connected with the upper ends of the bending parts 32 of the sliding arms 3, so that the front view of the connecting plate 4 and the bending parts 32 which are connected is in an inverted U shape, the inverted U-shaped structure provides direct contact force application, and the connecting plate 4 is spaced from the shell 1.

Referring to fig. 1, 2, 6 and 7, the following describes the operation mode of the optical transceiver module 100 with an unlocking device according to the present invention, when a user wants to insert the housing 1 of the XFP optical transceiver module into the cage 2 of the rack to lock the housing 1 and the cage 2, the user only needs to push the housing 1 and the unlocking device 10 into the cage 2 until the abutting portion 33 of the sliding arm 3 and the elastic piece 221 of the cage 2 abut against each other, so that the housing 1 is locked to the cage 2, and the general working state is maintained, as shown in fig. 1 and 2. When a user wants to release the locking relationship between the shell 1 and the cage shell 2 to pull out the shell 1, the user only needs to directly contact and grasp the bending portions 32 or the connecting plates 4 of the pair of sliding arms 3, pull the unlocking device 10 in the direction away from the cage shell 2, and the abutting portions 33 of the sliding arms 3 can outwardly eject the elastic pieces 221 of the cage shell 2 through the arc-shaped structural design, so that the shell 1 is separated from the constraint of the cage shell 2, and the locking relationship between the two is released, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, the shell 1 can be pulled out.

In summary, the unlocking device 10 is integrally formed, and only includes the pair of sliding arms 3 and the connecting plate 4, so that the locking and unlocking relationship between the housing 1 and the cage housing 2 can be realized, the position for providing the direct contact force application for the user is simplified to be the position of the connecting plate 4 or the bending part 32 of the two sliding arms 3, the corresponding operation function is also provided, the assembly is easy, the manufacturing cost can be reduced, the mass production is facilitated, and the purpose of the present invention can be achieved.

However, the above embodiments are only examples of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention should not be limited thereto, and all the simple equivalent changes and modifications made according to the claims and the patent specification of the present invention are still included in the scope of the present invention.
