Forming mold for optical fiber connector and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to an optical fiber connector forming die comprising an insert used to be embedded into a mold core block and a gasket matching the insert. The insert comprises a surface, and a forming surface extending from the surface and used for forming a contact surface of an optical fiber output terminal. The forming surface is subjected to mirror finishing. The gasket is adhered to the surface of the insert. One side of the gasket is aligned with one edge of the forming surface. The side of the gasket and the forming surface of the insert are used together to form a side wall in which the optical fiber output terminal of the optical fiber connector is positioned. The invention also provides a manufacturing method of the optical fiber connector forming die.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to mold processing and assembly, in particular to an optical fiber connector forming mold and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Fiber optic connectors transmit signals through optical fibers. The optical fiber connector usually has a through hole and some mechanical components, such as an L-shaped step, to guide and fix the optical fiber. The precision of the contact surface used to contact the output end of the optical fiber in the optical fiber connector, such as surface roughness, thickness dimension, etc., is highly required, because it will affect the efficiency of light transmission. [0003] Existing optical fiber connector molds are usually integrated, that is, the molding surface of the contact surface of the output end of the optical fiber used to form the optical fiber connector is integrated with other parts of a mold core block, and is blocked by other parts of the mold core. When process...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Existing optical fiber connector molds are usually integrated, that is, the molding surface of the contact surface of the output end of the optical fiber used to form the optical fiber connector is integrated with other parts of a mold core block, and is blocked by other parts of the mold core. When processing the molding surface, the bottom edge of the molding surface is often difficult to process in place, so the precision of the molding surface used to shape the contact surface of the output end of the optical fiber of the optical fiber connector is difficult to meet the requirements
