Problems solved by technology

The common structure of an optical fiber is composed of a core from the inside to the outside, a coating layer, a tight sleeve layer, a spun fiber layer, and a protective jacket. Most of the existing assembly structures of optical fiber connectors are glued first and then inserted. like figure 1 As shown, most of the traditional connector housings adopt the assembly structure of the front housing a and the rear housing b. The strength at the place is poor; in addition, when the volume becomes smaller, it is difficult for this traditional connector to thread through the fiber

Embodiment Construction

[0036] figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of the traditional front-to-back assembly of the connector. Most of the traditional connector shells use the assembly structure of the front shell a and the rear shell b. The strength of the joint of the optical fiber connector shell of this structure is poor;

[0037] Figure 2-5 As shown, the content of the present invention is an optical fiber connector, including: a housing body 10, a ferrule assembly 20, an elastic element 30, and a cover plate 40. The housing body 10 has a cavity 11 communicating with the front and back, and the housing body An opening 12 is also provided on the side surface; the ferrule assembly 20 and the elastic element 30 are installed in the cavity 11 through the opening 12 after assembly.

[0038] The ferrule assembly 20 can be formed from one integral part, and can also be composed of a ferrule 21 and a ferrule tailstock 22. A guide hole 222 communicated with the inserti...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber connecting devices, in particular to an optical fiber connector and assembly methods thereof. The optical fiber connector comprises a housing body, an insert core component, an elastic element and a cover plate, wherein a cavity running through the front and the back is arranged in the housing body, and an opening is further arranged on the side surface on the housing body; and the insert core component and the elastic element are assembled and then arranged in the cavity through the opening. The invention further discloses two assembly methods of the structure. Therefore, the optical fiber connector has the characteristics of still keeping high strength under the situation of having high density and small volume, facilitating the assembly, and having few parts, low cost and convenient mold opening.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber connection devices, in particular to an optical fiber connector and an assembly method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the development of network technology, optical fiber has been widely used as a high-speed, broadband data communication connection device. The common structure of an optical fiber is composed of a core, a coating layer, a tight sleeve layer, a spun layer, and a protective jacket from the inside to the outside. Most of the assembly structures of existing optical fiber connectors are glued first and then inserted. Such as figure 1 As shown, most of the traditional connector housings adopt the assembly structure of the front housing a and the rear housing b. The strength at the place is poor; in addition, when the volume becomes smaller, it is difficult for this traditional connector to thread fibers. Contents of the invention [0003] The object of the pr...
