Embodiment Construction

[0049] refer to Figure 4 , the one-piece fiber optic adapter 400 of the first embodiment of the present invention includes a body 410 and a plastic cover 490 formed by plastic molding. The body 410 is composed of a top wall 411, a bottom wall 412, a right wall 413, and a left wall 414. The walls 411, 412, 413, and 414 define an axial cavity 420, which has two opposite sides in the axial direction. The first opening 422 and the second opening 424.

[0050] A pair of lugs 432 and 434 are provided on the exterior of the body 410 . One lug 432 is located on the right wall 413 and the other lug 434 is located on the left wall 414 . Tabs 432 and 434 are used to secure adapter 400 to a surface. On the top wall 411, an access opening 450 is opened to allow the figure 1 The inner casing 160 in the body is put into the axial cavity 420 of the body 410 .

[0051] In addition, on the top of the left wall 414 and the right wall 413 close to the access opening 450 in the cavity 420, a...

Abstract

The invention provides a single-piece fiber adapter, which comprises a body, an inner housing, and a cover plate. The body has an axial cavity, which is defined and composed of a first wall, a second wall, a third wall and a fourth wall; the first wall is opposite to the third wall, and is connected with the second wall and the fourth wall. Both of two axial ends of the axial cavity of the body have openings, and the first wall is provided with an access opening. Protrude portions are formed respectively on the second wall and the fourth wall, wherein a dent facing the access opening is formed on each of the protrude portions. The inner housing is placed within the axial cavity of the body through the access opening of the first wall. The cover plate is used for covering the access opening of the first wall, wherein a plurality of protrusions that are corresponding to the dents are formed on the cover plate. When the protrusions on the cover plate are fused and the cover plate covers the access opening, the dents on the body are used for accommodating the fused protrusions. According to the fiber adapter provided in the invention, the problem of overflow of fused protrusions can be solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a fiber optic adapter, and more particularly to a one-piece fiber optic adapter. Background technique [0002] Optical fiber has revolutionized communications. As the use of optical fiber increases, it has become more and more important to be able to splice optical fibers repeatedly. If two optical fibers are to be connected together, such as optical fiber connectors and optical fiber adapters can be used to achieve. Fiber optic connectors are usually located at both ends of the fiber and can be inserted into openings in the fiber optic adapter. The fiber optic adapter has two openings, each of which connects to a fiber optic connector. [0003] Existing fiber optic adapters consist of two identical parts, each consisting of a rectangular outer housing with flanges on each end. Inside each part of the fiber optic adapter, there is a half inner housing. The inner casing has a cylinder, and a flange extends outward f...
