[0024] First, a first embodiment of the unit of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6 .

[0025] FIG. 1 is a partially cutaway front view of an optical module assembly including components as a first embodiment of the present invention. In addition, FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line II-II of FIG. 1 , and FIGS. 3 and 4 are left side views and right side views of the optical module assembly of FIG. 1 , respectively. In addition, FIG. 5 is a developed view of a main body described later, and FIG. 6 is a developed view of a cover described later.

[0026] As shown in Figures 1 to 4, the optical module assembly 1 has: an optical module 4 coupled with optical fibers 2a, 2b extending along the length direction; a component 6 that accommodates the optical module 4 as an embodiment of the present invention; The module 4 is fixed to the assembly and the resin 8 filled in the assembly 6 .

[0027] The optical module 4 extends in the ...

[0046] Next, referring to FIG. 7 , a second embodiment of the assembly of the present invention will be described. As will be described later, the unit of the second embodiment adopts the side plate 74 and the extension plate 80 instead of the side plate 16 of the main body 10 of the unit 6 of the first embodiment and the extension plate 40 of the cover 12 respectively, and has the same Assembly 6 has the same constituent parts. Therefore, only the parts different from the component 6 will be described, and other descriptions will be omitted.

[0047] Fig. 7 is a left side view of an optical module assembly including components as a second embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 7 , the same components as those of the module 6 of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted.

[0048] As shown in FIG. 7 , an assembly 72 of an optical module structure 70 has a main body 10 and a cover 12 . Side plates 74 are con...

[0052] Next, a third embodiment of the unit of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 8 to 12 .

[0053] FIG. 8 is a partially cutaway front view of an optical module assembly including components as a third embodiment of the present invention. 9 and 10 are respectively a left front view and a right front view of the optical module assembly of FIG. 8 . In addition, FIG. 11 is a developed view of a main body described later, and FIG. 12 is a developed view of a cover described later.

[0054] Compared with the above-mentioned first embodiment, the assembly of the third embodiment differs in the shape of the side plates 16, 18 of the main body 10 and the shape of the extension plates 40, 42 of the cover 12 and adds support plates 168, 170 described later. It has the same constituent parts as the unit 6. Therefore, components that are the same as those of the module 6 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and descriptions of the common parts are o...

Abstract

A package or the like, which has a simple structure, accurate dimensions and can be manufactured at low cost, is provided. This invention relates to a package for storing an optical module wherein optical fibers are coupled, and to an optical module assembly provided by combining such packages. A package (6) is provided with a main body (10) and a cover (12). The main body (10) includes a bottom board (14) for supporting the optical module (4), and a plurality of side boards (16, 18, 20) arranged around the bottom board (14) to surround the optical module (4). The cover (12) includes a top board (38) attached to a side board (20) to cover the top of the main body (10), and an extending board (40) which extends downward from the top board (38). The side boards (16, 18) and the extending board (40) cooperatively form holes (32a, 32b) to pass optical fibers (2a, 2b). The main body (10) and the cover (12) are formed by bending one board, respectively, and grooves (26, 44) are provided on bending parts.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to assemblies, and more particularly to assemblies for housing optical modules to which optical fibers are coupled. [0002] Furthermore, the present invention relates to an optical module assembly in which an optical module to which an optical fiber is coupled is accommodated in a package. Background technique [0003] An assembly for accommodating an optical module to which optical fibers are coupled is known from the prior art. [0004] Typically, the assembly has a tube open at both ends for enclosing the optical module and an end cap secured to each end of the tube. The tube consists of a container and a cap. The end cap has a through hole through which light extending from the optical module passes. The tube is generally made of metal. End caps are generally made of rubber or plastic. (Refer to Patent Document 1: Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2003-207658 (FIG. 1)) [0005] The method of assembling ...
