Embodiment Construction

[0023] refer to Figure 5 to Figure 9 , the boot 500 of the bendable optical fiber connector of the present invention is used to connect with the optical fiber connector, wherein the boot 500 includes a hollow cylindrical body 510 with elasticity, defines an axial direction 520, and the optical fiber passes through it The void portion 512 is connected to a fiber optic connector (not shown). On the outer surface of the hollow cylindrical body 510 , there is formed a protruding portion 530 disposed in the axial direction 520 , which extends from the tail end 514 of the hollow cylindrical body 510 toward the head end 516 . A plurality of grooves 532 perpendicular to the axial direction 520 and parallel to each other are formed on the protruding portion 530 . An opening 534 is formed on the rear end of the protrusion 530 . In addition, a shape-maintainable member (shape-maintainable member) 540 is embedded in the inner surface of the hollow columnar body 510, which is exposed on...

Abstract

The invention provides a tail sleeve of an optical fiber connector. The tail sleeve comprises an elastic hollow-column-shaped body and a shape retainer, wherein the elastic hollow-column-shaped body defines the axial direction; and the shape retainer is formed on the inner surface of the hollow-column-shaped body. A force can be applied to the tail sleeve of the optical fiber connector, so that the tail sleeve can be bent to be in a required shape. After the tail sleeve is bent, the shape retainer in the tail sleeve can also be bent. After the external force applied to the bent tail sleeve disappears, the shape of the bent tail sleeve can be maintained by the shape retainer. If the tail sleeve is required to recover, a user can apply a force to the tail sleeve to bend the tail sleeve.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical fiber connector, and more particularly relates to a boot of the optical fiber connector. Background technique [0002] The application of optical fiber in communication and data storage has been flourishing day by day, capable of high-speed communication and data transmission. Optical fiber connectors are used in equipment such as instruments, communication equipment, switches, etc., and these devices contain many optical fiber connectors. Fiber protruding from a connector can bend due to gravity, or be bent by an external force. When the optical signal is transmitted in the optical fiber, if the bending radius of the optical fiber is too small, the optical signal will be lost. In order to avoid excessive bending of the optical fiber, a tension-relieving boot can be used on the optical fiber connector. The tension-relieving boot provides a slow, smooth and continuous transition from the fiber exiting the fiber opt...
