Detailed Description
The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings are used to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.
As shown in fig. 1, the utility model relates to an optical fiber connector, including the ceramic head of optic fibre 1, the optic fibre lantern ring 2, optic fibre connection thread bush 4, spring 5, optic fibre tail cover 6, adapter. The spring 5 is used for sleeving the optical fiber 3 extending out of the optical fiber tail sleeve 6 and sequentially passing through the optical fiber sleeve ring 2 and the optical fiber ceramic head 1. The optical fiber connection threaded sleeve is sleeved outside the optical fiber sleeve ring and the optical fiber ceramic head and is used for being connected with an adapter, so that the spring 5 acts between the optical fiber tail sleeve 6 and the optical fiber sleeve ring 2. The optical fiber ceramic head 1 is fixed on the optical fiber ferrule 2.
The optical fiber tail sleeve 6 is made of a waterproof rubber sleeve, and a step portion is arranged at one end, connected with the optical fiber connecting threaded sleeve 4, of the optical fiber tail sleeve 6. The upper step surface of the step part is used for being abutted against the end part of the spring, and the lower step surface of the step part is used for being abutted against the optical fiber connection threaded sleeve.
In order to reduce stress generated by end face extrusion when the optical fiber connection threaded sleeve is screwed down on the connector, on one hand, the spring is a spring with an elastic coefficient of 1.698-2.548N/mm. According to the elastic coefficient calculation formula:
wherein, F: the load on the spring; λ: the deformation of the spring when the spring is loaded with a load F; g: shear modulus of the spring material; d: the diameter of the spring wire; d2: the diameter of the spring; n: the effective number of turns of the spring; c: the spring's convolution ratio (also known as the spring index).
It can be seen that increasing the diameter of the spring, decreasing the diameter of the spring wire, changing to a smaller shear modulus spring material, increasing the number of effective turns of the spring, a larger turn ratio, etc., results in a smaller spring rate. The spring with smaller elastic coefficient can reduce the end face extrusion stress to the state that high-power light can not generate fusing.
On the other hand, a shorter suitable ceramic fiber tip is chosen so that the end face distance is suitable for coupling without excessive stress. For example, a fiber ceramic head with a length of 7.93-7.97 mm is used.
The fiber ceramic head can be fixed on the fiber ferrule 2 through a metal fixing piece. One end of the metal fixing piece is clamped and fixed on the metal optical fiber lantern ring, and the other end of the metal fixing piece is used for clamping and fixing the optical fiber ceramic head. In this way, the fiber ceramic ferrule can be conveniently secured to the ferrule 2. Specifically, the metal fixing part is provided with a small circular ring part sleeved in the optical fiber sleeve ring and a large circular ring part used for clamping and fixing the optical fiber ceramic head. The radial size of the small circular ring part is smaller than that of the large circular ring part, and the small circular ring part and the large circular ring part are integrally formed.

The optical fiber ferrule 2 can be fixed on the optical fiber tail sleeve 6 by gluing.
When the fiber ceramic head is inserted into the adapter, the fiber ferrule 2 is matched with the adapter in a positioning mode, and then the adapter is fixed through the fiber connecting threaded sleeve.
The adapter comprises an outer shell 7, two inner cannulas 8 arranged on opposite sides of the outer shell 7, and an outer cannula 9 arranged outside the inner cannulas. The inner cannula 8 communicates with the outer housing interior 7. The inner inserting tube 8 is used for inserting the optical fiber ceramic head 1, the space between the inner inserting tube 8 and the outer inserting tube 9 is used for accommodating the lantern ring body 22, the lantern ring body 22 is abutted against the bottom surface 10 of the space between the inner inserting tube 8 and the outer inserting tube 9, and the bulge 22 is abutted against the end part of the outer inserting tube 9. The outer cannula 9 is provided with a clamping groove 91 which is matched with the clamping piece 23 in a clamping way. Preferably, the slot 91 is a U-shaped slot, and the card 23 has a shape matching the U-shaped slot.
The distance between the end faces is further reduced, and an elastic silica gel pad in contact with the optical fiber ceramic head 1 is arranged on the bottom surface 10 of the space between the inner inserting tube 8 and the outer inserting tube 9. The elastic silica gel pad is connected with the bottom surface 10 in an adhesive manner. The problem of poor sealing effect caused by too free movement of the elastic silica gel pad is avoided, and the sealing reliability is improved.
The outer shell 7 contains optical fiber matching fluid 11. The optical fiber matching fluid is a soft, non-sticky, water-resistant, non-toxic, harmless and crystal clear paste compound, and the refractive index of the optical fiber matching fluid is close to that of an optical fiber. After the optical fiber matching fluid is added, the advantages are as follows:
1. when the optical fibers are butted, the optical fiber matching fluid can clean the end faces and bring away grease on hands and dust in air to pollute the end faces. The manpower and material resources for cleaning the end face can be reduced.
2. The optical fibers are butted in the optical fiber matching fluid, and compared with the direct butt joint in the air, the optical fiber matching fluid can reduce the diffusion angle and the coupling angle of the light emitted by the optical fibers, thereby achieving better coupling efficiency.
3. The gap between the splicing points can be filled, Fresnel reflection can be reduced, and particularly when the end face of the optical fiber is not flat, the matching fluid is filled in the continuous joint, so that the light efficiency can be effectively improved.
4. The lubricant can be used as a lubricant, can reduce the friction force generated by the installation in the original mode, can reduce the damage of the end face of the optical fiber, and improves the installation efficiency and the success rate of butt joint.
In order to prevent the matching fluid from leaking when the optical fiber ferrule enters the matching fluid, an elastic silica gel sleeve 13 with a pinhole is arranged in the outer shell 7, and the pinhole opening 131 is arranged corresponding to the inner insertion tube. The elastic silica gel sleeve 13 is sheet-shaped, can be plane sheet-shaped, and can also be curved surface sheet-shaped.

Or, the elastic silica gel sleeve is provided with an inner cavity, and the inner cavity is filled with the optical fiber matching fluid 11. The elastic silica gel sleeve is a sleeve body with two pinhole openings, and the two pinhole openings respectively correspond to the inner inserting tubes on the two sides of the outer shell.
The optical fiber connector is suitable for FC, ST, SC, PC, APC and MT-RT connectors. For this purpose, the adapter has a connection opening adapted to the fiber stub. Because the adapter is provided with two groups of inner sleeve and outer sleeve combined connecting ports on two opposite sides of the outer shell respectively, two sides of the outer shell of the adapter can be connected with different types of optical fiber connectors or the same type of optical fiber connectors respectively.
The end face of the optical fiber ceramic head is coated with an antireflection film 12. The antireflection film is a surface optical coating, and the transmittance of light on the surface is increased by reducing reflected light, so that the coupling efficiency is improved.
Taking FC joint butt as an example:
when the optical fiber ceramic head 1 is inserted into the adapter, and enters the silica gel sleeve pinhole opening 131 (the opening above fig. 4), the optical fiber ceramic head 1 is filled with the optical fiber matching fluid 11, and the optical fiber matching fluid 11 carries away end face dust and other foreign matters. Continue to go deep into until the card 23 of the optic fibre lantern ring 2 matches with the U type draw-in groove 91 of optic fibre adapter, metal lantern ring 22 touches with bottom surface 10, restriction optic fibre is in a certain position, optic fibre connection thread bush 4 matches with optic fibre connection screw thread 14 and screws up, the last elastic spring 5 compression of FC connector this moment guarantees that optic fibre ceramic head 1 docks, elasticity reduces, but the butt joint of optic fibre head is not extruded, the optic fibre connector revolves on optic fibre connection screw thread 14, the butt joint is accomplished to optic fibre.
