Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] [0001] The present invention relates to the field of Universal Sei*iai Bus USB, and more particularly to a fiber-coupled connector β [Prior Art] [0002] USB data transmission technology has been widely used, for example, using USB connector to connect the computer to the printer to complete the printing work, or to insert the 1 mobile storage disk into the computer USB socket through the plug-in USB coupling connector to realize the data. Transfer. Ο [0003] Different technology standards for USB-coupled connectors have different material transfer rates. For example, current USB 2.0 devices can operate at 480 Mbps. With the advancement of technology, fiber-optic coupling connectors with higher data transmission rates should be shipped. Health. [〇〇〇4] Existing fiber-coupled connectors typically include a connector housing and a concentrating lens disposed on the connector housing. Connector. The housing usually includes a blind hole for inserting the fiber. In order to observe the assembly accuracy of the diaphragm, it is necessary to open a through hole at the corresponding position of the Q blind hole for observation. However, the presence of the through hole affects the overall structural strength of the fiber-coupled connector, and its mechanical properties are affected. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0005] In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a fiber optic coupling connector in which structural strength is not affected. [0006] An optical fiber face-to-face connector that includes a housing and a lens disposed on the housing. The housing has a blind hole and a through hole extending through the blind hole, 098132080 Form No. A0101 Page 3 of 13 Page 0902055058-0 201111849 The central axis of the through hole is perpendicular to the central axis of the blind hole, the lens is located at the bottom end of the B hole, and the blind hole is for receiving the optical fiber, and the inner diameter of the through hole is Ribs are provided for reinforcing the strength of the outer casing. [0010] [0011] Compared with the prior art, the through hole of the fiber coupling quick connector of the embodiment of the present invention is provided with a rib, and the existence of the rib causes the connector to be located at the through hole. The strength is increased when there is no rib, so the structural strength of the fiber-coupled connector is improved. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, the present invention will be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Referring to Figures 1, 2 and 3, the fiber optic light coupling connector 10 of the first embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 11 and a lens cartridge. The outer casing 11 has a substantially square main body portion 11: and a grip portion 120 connected to the main body portion. The main body portion 11 has a first surface 111 and a second surface 112 which are disposed opposite to each other in the axial direction, and a third surface 113 and a fourth surface 114 which are connected to both the first surface 11A and the second surface 112, and the third surface is completed. 3 is disposed opposite to the fourth surface 114. The main body portion 110 has two axially and parallelly arranged blind holes 5, that is, the blind holes 115 extend from the fourth surface 114 toward the third surface 113 and terminate at a position close to the third surface 113, and the blind holes 115 are used. Accommodate the fiber (not shown). The grip portion 120 is formed by extending the fourth surface 114 away from the third surface 113. When the optical fiber coupling connector 10 is connected to an electronic device such as a notebook or a digital camera, the grip portion 120 can be inserted and inserted. The lens 12 is located at a position where the third surface 113 corresponds to the blind hole 115, and the third surface 113 is protruded from the insertion end 116. 098132080 Form No. A0101 Page 4 / Total 13 Page 0992055058-0 [0012] [0015] [0016] The body portion 110 has a first surface through the first surface and a position at a position corresponding to the blind hole 11 5 The through hole 117' of the two surfaces 112, that is, the central axis of the through hole 117 is perpendicular to the central axis of the blind hole 115. When the optical fiber group is loaded into the blind hole 115, the assembly of the fiber can be observed through the through hole 117. The inner wall of the through hole 117 is radially protruded to form a strip-shaped first rib 118 and a second rib 119, and the first rib Π 8 and the second rib π 9 are parallel to the third surface 113 ′, that is, the first rib 118 and the second rib 119 are The main body portion 12 is integrally formed. Therein, the first rib 118 is adjacent to the first surface 1U, and the second rib 119 is adjacent to the second surface 112, and both have a sufficient distance for the optical fiber to pass through. Since the first rib 118 and the second rib 119 functioning as support members are provided in the through hole 117, the structural strength of the main body portion 10 can be enhanced. The capsule: 1 Of course, the blind holes 115 The number can be changed according to actual needs, for example, it can be four, six, eight, and the like. Each of the blind holes 115 is provided with a through hole 11 7 ' each: a through hole 117; and a first rib 118 and a second rib 119 are disposed therein. ,: > r As shown in Fig. 4, the basic structure of the optical coupling connector 2 is the same as that of the optical fiber coupling connector 10, and the difference is that the through hole 217 is Only one first rib 218 is provided, and the first rib 218 is perpendicular to the third surface 213. [0018] [0018] The first rib 218 is separately molded 'then and then glued into the through hole 217 with glue, the material of which may be the same as or different from the fiber-optic coupling connector 2, of course, the first rib 218 may not be vertical The third surface 213, the two of the 098132080 form number A0101 5th / 13 pages 0982055058-0 201111849 can have any angle, such as 30 degrees, 60 degrees and so on.
