Description

一种连接器和光纤连接组件A connector and optical fiber connection assembly 技术领域technical field
本发明涉及光纤通信领域,具体涉及一种连接器和光纤连接组件。The invention relates to the field of optical fiber communication, in particular to a connector and an optical fiber connection assembly.
背景技术Background technique
随着FTTH(Fiber To The Home,光纤到户)的大规模部署,减少施工成本,降低施工技术要求,简化施工难度的预连接产品应用越来越广。然而,现阶段使用的光纤连接器和适配器绝大部分采用的是行业标准型的连接器及适配器。该类型的连接器及适配器的设计初衷在于解决室内或者有保护盒(箱体)内的光纤连接,开通业务时需要打开盒体,在盒体里进行熔接,固定光缆等操作。为避免开通业务时开箱,熔接,固定光缆等动作,通常会选择使用具有较好的防水性能,可预装在盒体外使用的光纤连接器和适配器。With the large-scale deployment of FTTH (Fiber To The Home), pre-connected products that reduce construction costs, reduce construction technical requirements, and simplify construction difficulty are more and more widely used. However, most of the fiber optic connectors and adapters currently used are industry-standard connectors and adapters. The original design of this type of connector and adapter is to solve the optical fiber connection indoors or in a protective box (box). When opening a business, you need to open the box, perform fusion splicing in the box, and fix the optical cable. In order to avoid unpacking, splicing, and fixing optical cables when opening services, optical fiber connectors and adapters that have good waterproof performance and can be pre-installed outside the box are usually selected.
目前,市面上存在的室外型光纤连接器和适配器,大部分采用的锁紧方式为旋拧式,而旋拧式锁紧方式由于其自身特性,需要在连接器和适配器周边预留手指操作空间,在有限的安装空间下,特别是在密度要求较高的情况下,操作非常困难。部分插拔方式的连接器与适配器,受到本身结构的限制,光纤连接器轴向的拉伸力很难满足需要。At present, most of the outdoor fiber optic connectors and adapters on the market use the screw-type locking method. Due to its own characteristics, the screw-type locking method needs to reserve finger operation space around the connector and adapter. , Under the limited installation space, especially in the case of high density requirements, the operation is very difficult. Some connectors and adapters in plug-in mode are limited by their own structure, and the axial tensile force of the optical fiber connector is difficult to meet the needs.

参见图19至图22所示,下面对本发明中连接器和适配器的锁紧和解锁原理做出介绍:Referring to Figures 19 to 22, the following describes the locking and unlocking principles of the connectors and adapters in the present invention:
当需要将连接器1和适配器2进行锁紧时,手持连接器外套13将连接器1插入适配器2过程中,当插入部101上的第一凸起102的斜面与适配器主体20上的卡扣201的斜面接触时,会推动卡扣201向外张开,随着插入深度增加,卡扣201的端面会与解锁环12的端面(延伸部122的最左端)抵持,并推动解锁环12向后压缩弹性件 11。当连接器1插入到位时,插入部101上的第一凸起102与适配器主体20上的卡扣201形成扣合,卡扣201形状复位,脱离与解锁环12端面的相互抵持,此时解锁环12将在弹性件11的作用力下向前运动,当运动到最大行程时,压紧适配器主体20上的卡扣201,因为收到解锁环12的压紧作用,卡扣201无法产生张开形变,从而保证牢固的抗拉力。When the connector 1 and the adapter 2 need to be locked, when the connector 1 is inserted into the adapter 2 by holding the connector jacket 13, when the inclined surface of the first protrusion 102 on the insertion part 101 and the snap on the adapter body 20 When the inclined surface of 201 is in contact, it will push the buckle 201 to open outward. As the insertion depth increases, the end surface of the buckle 201 will abut against the end surface of the unlocking ring 12 (the leftmost end of the extension 122 ), and push the unlocking ring 12 The elastic member 11 is compressed backward. When the connector 1 is inserted in place, the first protrusion 102 on the insertion portion 101 forms a snap fit with the buckle 201 on the adapter body 20, and the shape of the buckle 201 is reset and released from the mutual abutment with the end face of the unlocking ring 12. At this time The unlocking ring 12 will move forward under the force of the elastic member 11. When the movement reaches the maximum stroke, press the buckle 201 on the adapter body 20. Because of the pressing action of the unlocking ring 12, the buckle 201 cannot be generated. Open and deform to ensure firm tensile strength.
当需要将连接器1和适配器2进行解锁时,手持或者通过拉绳14向后拉动连接器外套13,连接器外套13内侧的外套凸起131带动解锁环12向后运动,当解锁环12脱离与卡扣201接触时。连接器主体10向后运动,并通过第一凸起102将卡扣201胀开,完成脱扣动作,继续拉动连接器1,直至连接器1与适配器2完成脱离接触,即完成全部的解锁过程。When the connector 1 and the adapter 2 need to be unlocked, the connector cover 13 is pulled backwards by hand or through the pull cord 14. The cover protrusion 131 on the inner side of the connector cover 13 drives the unlocking ring 12 to move backwards. When the unlocking ring 12 is disengaged When in contact with the buckle 201 .
