Problems solved by technology

[0021] These actions not only lead to interruption of signal reception, but most importantly, can cause damage to human health if the human eye intercepts the optical signal from one of the now disconnected male optical connectors

Embodiment Construction

[0043] refer to figure 1 , figure 2 and Figure 5 , safety female adapter devices for standard SC connections of fiber optic cables according to the first, second and third embodiments of the present invention are indicated generally at 301, 302 and 303, respectively.

[0044] The female safety adapters 301, 302, 303 according to the invention are configured to accommodate standard SC male optical connectors, comprising a substantially box-shaped housing defining a housing space for the connectors.

[0045] As shown, the box-shaped housing is particularly shaped like a parallelepiped with two openings on the faces facing each other, one opening at the front for inserting the male connector and the other at the rear for coupling a second female Adapter devices (even standard ones) or optics (active or passive).

[0046] At the insertion portion of the male connector, the housing has a longitudinal reference slot sized to allow the reference protrusion P of a standard SC-typ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a secure female adapter device for an optical fiber connection, the female adapter device being configured to receive a male optical connector, characterized in that the female adapter device comprises a controlled release locking means configured to: lock the male optical connector when the connector is inserted into the adapter device to establish an optical connection; longitudinal sliding of the male connector relative to the female adapter device is constrained, and longitudinal sliding of the connector relative to the adapter device is released during insertion or disconnection of the male connector into or from the female adapter device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a safety adapter for fiber optic connections, in particular a standard SC female adapter configured to receive a standard SC optical male connector. Background technique [0002] Optical fiber data transmission systems continue to increase worldwide. [0003] These systems provide data transmission using coherent light signals transmitted through a fiber optic cable. The fiber optic cable includes a central optical fiber, an inner protective sheath, and an outer sheath. The central optical fiber is made of glass or plastic material for easy transmission of optical signals. The inner protective sheath Made of Nylon, Kevlar to reinforce the cable, thus increasing its tensile strength, the outer sheath is made of plastic or rubber material. [0004] The connections between the ends of fiber optic cables must be very precise to allow optical signals to travel from one fiber to the other with the lowest possible dispersion....
