Optical fiber clamping device and optical fiber connector

Abstract

The invention provides an optical fiber clamping device and an optical fiber connector utilizing the optical fiber clamping device. The optical fiber clamping device comprises a tube base, a sliding block and a frame body, the tube base comprises a tube body which is provided with a through hole, an optical fiber can be inserted into the through hole, the middle section of the tube body can be deformed after being subjected to a radial force application, the sliding block is sleeved on the tube body and suitable for sliding on the tube body, the frame body is used for placing the tube base and the sliding block, a fixed first gland and a second gland which rotates around the frame body pivotal shaft are arranged on an optical fiber inserting side of the frame body, the rotation of the second gland drives the sliding block to slide, when the second gland rotates towards a close direction, the sliding block is driven to slide to apply force to the middle section of the tube body in a radial direction, when the tube body is deformed, the optical fiber is clamped, moreover, when the second gland is closed, an outer layer of the optical fiber is clamped by the second gland and the first gland, and when the second gland rotates towards a loosening direction, the outer layer of the optical fiber and the optical fiber are released. The optical fiber clamping device and the optical fiber connector have the advantages that the operation complexity of optical fiber clamping and butt joint is reduced, and the reliability of the optical fiber clamping and but joint is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber connection, in particular to an optical fiber clamping device and an optical fiber connector using the optical fiber clamping device. Background technique [0002] Optical fiber quick connectors are mainly used in fiber-to-the-home construction sites. The clamping of optical fibers in optical fiber quick connectors requires simple operation and reliable clamping. [0003] Existing optical fiber quick connectors generally use a V-groove to realize the butt joint and clamping of the optical fiber, and the upper opening of the V-groove uses a pressure plate to compress and insert the optical fiber. The existing V-groove butt joint and optical fiber clamping scheme requires special tools to operate when opening the pressing plate to penetrate the optical fiber or pressing down the pressing plate to clamp the optical fiber.
