Abstract

An optical fiber connector assembly disclosed by the present invention comprises a shell, an optical fiber adapter, an optical fiber connector and an optical cable. The optical cable is equipped with an optical cable fixing device, a reinforcement element of the optical cable is fixed on the optical cable fixing device, and an optical fiber of the optical cable penetrates the optical cable fixing device. The optical fiber connector assembly also comprises an end cap fixed in a first port of the shell, and the optical cable fixing device is separated from the optical fiber connector and is accommodated in an accommodating cavity of the end cap. A stop wall is formed at the outer end of the end cap and is used to prevent the optical cable fixing device from being pull out from the accommodating cavity of the end cap, and a compression spring is arranged between the end cap and the optical fiber adapter and is extruded between the end face of the end cap and the end face of the optical fiber adapter. According to the present invention, the compression spring is only arranged at one side of the optical fiber adapter and is extruded between the end faces of the end cap and the optical fiber adapter, so that the axial size and the radial size of the whole optical fiber connector assembly are reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical fiber connector assembly. Background technique [0002] The optical fibers of a pair of optical cables are usually butted using optical fiber connectors and optical fiber adapters. In the prior art, the optical fiber of the optical cable is fixed into the inner hole of the ferrule of the optical fiber connector by glue, and the strengthening element of the optical cable is crimped to the housing of the optical fiber connector by crimping to prevent the fiber from acting on the optical cable. The external pulling force is transmitted to the optical fiber. [0003] In the prior art, for such an optical fiber connector assembly including an optical fiber adapter and an optical fiber connector, it is usually necessary to set a compression spring on both sides of the optical fiber adapter, and the compression spring is usually sleeved on the housing of the optical fiber connector . This results in larger radial and axi...
