Problems solved by technology

Most of the existing optical fiber connectors are single-core optical fiber connectors, which can only realize the butt joint of one optical fiber. Not only the connection efficiency is low, the production cost is high, but also the space occupied in the box is large, and it is difficult to adapt to multiple optical fibers. Simultaneous connection technology development needs
In order to solve the above problems, some multi-core optical fiber connectors have appeared in the prior art, which can be used for the butt joint of multiple optical fibers, but their structural settings are not reasonable and compact, and the use of plug-in is not convenient enough.
On the other hand, most of the existing optical fiber connectors are used indoors, and their waterproof performance is weak, and the connector is transmitted through the cable when plugging and unplugging, and does not directly act on the plug of the connector, which may easily cause deformation and damage to the optical cable.
There are also optical fiber connectors with threaded connection structure, which need to be twisted multiple times during installation and removal, which is very inconvenient to use

Abstract

The invention relates to a multi-core optical fiber connector, which includes an adapter assembly and a connector assembly, and is characterized in that the adapter assembly includes an adapter cylinder, and the adapter cylinder is divided into a front cavity and a rear cavity, and the front cavity is provided with an inner sleeve. Claws are provided between the inner barrel and the inner wall of the adapter barrel, the rear cavity is provided with a docking cavity, and is equipped with a hook, the docking cavity communicates with the inner hole of the inner barrel, and the connector assembly includes a connection The head cylinder, the front part of the connector cylinder is matched with the front cavity of the adapter cylinder, the middle and front part of the connector cylinder is covered with an elastic jacket, and the outer periphery of the connector cylinder in the elastic jacket is provided with a claw corresponding to the adapter. The clamping slot for clamping, the inner hole of the connector cylinder is provided with a multi-core ferrule assembly, and the front end of the multi-core ferrule assembly is connected with the docking cavity of the adapter cylinder. The invention can realize the parallel docking of multiple optical fibers, not only has a reasonable and compact structure, good waterproof performance, but also is easy to plug and use and reliable to connect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a multi-core optical fiber connector, which is used for parallel connection of multiple optical fibers and belongs to the technical field of optical fiber communication devices. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the Internet and optical networks, the application of optical fiber connectors is becoming more and more extensive. Most of the existing optical fiber connectors are single-core optical fiber connectors, which can only realize the butt joint of one optical fiber. Not only the connection efficiency is low, the production cost is high, but also the space occupied in the box is large, and it is difficult to adapt to multiple optical fibers. Simultaneous connection technology development needs. In order to solve the above problems, some multi-core optical fiber connectors have appeared in the prior art, which can be used for the butt joint of multiple optical fibers, but their structure is not rea...
