A floating connection structure and floating connector

Abstract

The invention provides a floating connection structure and a floating connector. The floating connector includes floating connecting ears fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the connector housing, and the floating connecting ears are provided with floating connecting grooves whose axes extend in the front-rear direction. The floating connecting structure also includes a floating connecting piece, the floating connecting piece includes front and rear stoppers arranged at intervals on the front and rear sides of the floating connecting ear, and between the front and rear stoppers is connected a slot for inserting the floating connecting piece from the left and right directions. There is a floating connection column inside, the lower end of the front stopper is provided with a threaded connection hole for screw connection with the base plate, and there is a space between the floating connection column and the floating connection slot for the connector housing and the base plate to have relative displacement in the up and down, left and right directions. floating gap. The floating connector of the present invention can stop the rotation of the front stopper in the circumferential direction through the stop and cooperation of the bottom of the floating connection slot with the floating connection column in the left-right direction, which facilitates the connection between the screw and the front stopper.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a floating connection structure and a floating connector. Background technique [0002] As a basic component of optical signal transmission, optical fiber connector plays a very important role in communication and information systems. Whether the optical fiber connector is in use or not has a great influence on the good transmission of optical signals whether the contacts are aligned. Therefore, in the design, it is generally required that the connector can deviate or float to a certain extent during the docking process to meet the positioning error and insertion error, so as to avoid the contact parts being restricted by the connector shell and cannot be accurately aligned, or being restricted by the connector shell. Extrusion damage due to the limitation of the body. [0003] The Chinese invention patent with the authorized announcement number CN1269271C and the authorized announcement date of August 9, 2006 discloses a floa...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] The lower end of the fastening column of this floating installation system is provided with a threaded connection hole and is connected to the base plate through a connecting screw. The fastening column is used to prevent rotation in the circumferential direction. However, in order to adapt to the miniaturization and integration of the current connector, the volume of the housing is small, which makes the diameter of the fastening column correspondingly reduced. At this time, the outer hexagon and the fastening It is very inconvenient when the hexagonal inner hexagon at the upper end of the column is inserted into the fastening column, and considering the limitation of the installation space of the connector, it is quite difficult to realize the anti-rotation of the fastening column by hand, which greatly improves the The installation time of the staff increases the labor intensity
