Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of optoelectronic composite connectors, specifically relating to an integrated coaxial optoelectronic connector. Background Technology

[0002] Optoelectronic composite connectors, as a type of special-application active connector, are widely used in monitoring, sensing, and communication equipment and systems in aerospace, aviation, marine, and power systems. These connectors integrate optoelectronic transmission, achieving rapid fiber-optic composite transmission through plug-and-play connections. While current optoelectronic composite connectors integrate optoelectronics into a single unit, they still employ separate contact methods: optical signals connect to optical contacts, and electrical signals connect to electrical contacts. The number of contacts equals the number of transmission channels, resulting in a large size and space requirement in multi-core optoelectronic transmission systems, hindering high-density integration. Furthermore, with a large number of contacts, the cumulative alignment error of the fiber optic signals is significant, leading to substantial fiber optic transmission loss at connector nodes. This results in poor overall optical performance and stability of the connector, particularly in the field of coaxial optoelectronic composite transmission, where mature coaxial optoelectronic integrated connectors have yet to be commercially available.

[0062] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can more clearly understand the present invention.

[0063] It should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integrally formed structures. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in this patent based on the specific circumstances.

[0064] Example 1

[0065] like Figure 1-6 As shown, this embodiment provides an integrated coaxial optoelectronic connector, including a hollow connector plug 101 and a hollow connector socket 102, wherein the connector plug 101 and the connector socket 102 are coaxially and fixedly connected.

[0066] The connector plug 101 has a hollow plug insulating core 9 coaxially fixed inside, and the connector socket 102 has a hollow socket insulating core 4 coaxially fixed inside.

[0067] The plug insulating core 9 is coaxially fixed with a photoelectric socket 3 inside, and the socket insulating core 4 is coaxially fixed with a hollow photoelectric pin 8 inside.

[0068] The photoelectric socket 3 has an axial hole 33 extending through the left and right sides. Inside the axial hole 33, from left to right, there are a contact claw 32, a ceramic sleeve 34, an LC standard ferrule 36, and a spring 37. The diameters of the left and right ends of the axial hole 33 are smaller than the diameter of the middle part. An annular step 313 is fixed on the inner wall of the axial hole 33. The spring piece of the contact claw 32 faces to the right and abuts against the left end of the ceramic sleeve 34. The left end of the contact claw 32 abuts against the inner wall of the left end of the photoelectric socket 3. The right end of the ceramic sleeve 34 abuts against the annular step 313. The left end of the LC standard ferrule 36 is inserted into the ceramic sleeve 34. The left end of the spring 37 is sleeved on the outside of the right end of the LC standard ferrule 36. The right end of the spring 37 abuts against the inner wall of the right end of the photoelectric socket 3.

[0069] The photoelectric pin 8 is fixedly connected to a hollow ceramic ferrule 81 at its right end. The right end of the ceramic ferrule 81 is inserted into the ceramic sleeve 34 and abuts against the left end of the LC standard ferrule 36. The spring clip of the contact claw 32 is held on the outside of the photoelectric pin 8.

[0070] In this embodiment, both the connector plug 101 and the plug insulating core 9 are hollow structures. This allows cables and optical fibers to be introduced into the plug insulating core 9 from the right end of the connector plug 101. Furthermore, since the photoelectric jack 3 has axial holes 33 extending through both sides, optical fibers can be introduced into the interior from the right end of the axial holes 33 and have their end faces processed at the left end of the LC standard ferrule 36. The cable can then be directly connected to the photoelectric jack 3. The plug insulating core 9 can be made of materials with good insulation properties, such as plastic or bakelite.

[0071] Meanwhile, both the connector socket 102 and the socket insulating core 4 are hollow structures, allowing cables and optical fibers to be introduced into the socket insulating core 4 from the left end of the connector socket 102. Furthermore, since both the photoelectric pin 8 and the ceramic ferrule 81 are hollow structures, optical fibers can be introduced from the left end of the photoelectric pin 8 and extend to the right end of the ceramic ferrule 81 for end-face processing, while cables can be directly connected to the photoelectric pin 8. The socket insulating core 4 can be made of materials with good insulation properties, such as plastic or bakelite.

[0072] Based on the above structure, after the connector plug 101 and the connector socket 102 are coaxially fixedly connected, the right end of the ceramic ferrule 81 can be inserted into the ceramic sleeve 34 and abut against the left end of the LC standard ferrule 36, thereby completing the connection of the optical fibers on both sides and realizing optical signal transmission. The spring 37 can maintain a certain clamping force between the LC standard ferrule 36 and the ceramic ferrule 81. In addition, the photoelectric socket 3 and the photoelectric pin 8 are both made of conductive materials. For example, the photoelectric pin 8, the photoelectric socket 3, and the contact claw 32 are all made of brass. The spring of the contact claw 32 presses against the outside of the photoelectric pin 8, so that the photoelectric pin 8 and the photoelectric socket 3 can maintain a stable electrical connection, thereby completing the connection of the cables on both sides and realizing the conduction of electrical transmission.

[0073] In summary, the integrated coaxial optoelectronic connector provided in this embodiment achieves simultaneous transmission of a set of optoelectronic signals by using a coaxial integrated design for the optical and electrical contacts. Furthermore, the optical fiber signal contact is coaxially embedded inside the electrical contact, preserving the cylindrical structure of the electrical contact and enabling coaxial connection of optoelectronic signals to achieve higher requirements for radio frequency signal transmission.

[0074] Example 2

[0075] Based on Example 1, in this example, as Figure 7 As shown, the photoelectric pin 8 may include a hollow electric pin contact post 82, a limiting annular step 83 fixedly sleeved on the outside of the electric pin contact post 82, and a welding post 85 fixedly disposed on the left end of the electric pin contact post 82. The left end of the ceramic ferrule 81 is fixedly snapped into the inside of the right end of the electric pin contact post 82, as shown. Figure 5 As shown, the contact claw 32's spring clips hold the outer side of the electrical connector contact post 82, and the welding post 85 has optical fiber lead-out axial holes 87 extending through it on both sides. Thus, the optical fiber can pass sequentially through the optical fiber lead-out axial holes 87 and the electrical connector contact post 82 to the right end of the ceramic ferrule 81. The cable can then be directly connected to the welding post 85. The inner diameter of the electrical connector contact post 82 and the outer diameter of the ceramic ferrule 81 are set with a negative tolerance, allowing the ceramic ferrule 81 to be embedded and pressed into the right end of the electrical connector contact post 82.

[0076] like Figure 9As shown, the socket insulating core 4 can include a hollow socket core cover 43 and a hollow socket core seat 48. The left end of the socket core cover 43 has a socket stop spring stepped hole 44, within which a socket stop spring 10 is installed. The inner spring leaf of the socket stop spring 10 faces right. The left end of the socket core cover 43 has a socket guide hole 45. The right end of the socket core seat 48 is fixedly connected to a socket guide post 46, which abuts against the left end of the socket core cover 43. The socket guide post 46 passes through the socket guide hole 45. The inner diameter of the socket core seat 48 is smaller than the diameter of the socket stop spring 10. The socket core seat 48 can act as an axial limiter, working in conjunction with the socket core cover 43 to clamp the socket stop spring 10 in the middle. The socket guide hole 45 and the socket guide post 46 can serve as guides, facilitating the quick assembly of the socket core cover 43 and the socket core seat 48.

[0077] The right end of the socket core cover 43 is fixedly provided with a first positioning step 41, and the first positioning step 41 is provided with pin outlet holes 42 for leading out optical fibers on both sides. Figure 8 As shown, the limiting annular step 83 is coaxially sleeved inside the socket core cover 43, as... Figure 10 As shown, the right end of the limiting annular step 83 abuts against the first positioning step 41, while the right end of the inner closing spring of the socket stop spring 10 abuts against the left end of the limiting annular step 83. The first positioning step 41 and the socket stop spring 10 respectively provide axial limiting for the limiting annular step 83 from two directions, preventing the limiting annular step 83 from moving left or right, thereby fixing the photoelectric pin 8 inside the socket insulating core 4. Figure 21 As shown, the socket stop spring 10 has a thin-walled cylindrical structure, with three fan-shaped inner spring plates 103 and an opening groove 104 on the circumference.

[0078] Among them, such as Figure 7 As shown, the welding column 85 has a socket-opening fan-shaped groove 86 on its side wall, which extends to the left end of the welding column 85. A socket-closed fan-shaped groove 88 is also provided at the left end of the welding column 85. The socket-opening fan-shaped groove 86 and the socket-closed fan-shaped groove 88 can be used for cable welding or crimping operations.

[0079] In addition, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the connector socket 102 may include a hollow socket tail 6 and a hollow socket housing 7;

[0080] like Figure 11-12As shown, the right end of the socket tail attachment 6 has an internal thread 61, and the interior of the socket tail attachment 6 is the left composite cable lead-out hole 63. The left end of the socket housing 7 has an external thread 78. The socket tail attachment 6 is screwed to the socket housing 7. The socket core cover 43 and the socket core seat 48 are both bonded and fixed to the inner wall of the socket housing 7. That is, applying adhesive to the outside of the socket core cover 43 and the socket core seat 48 can bond and fix them to the inner wall of the socket housing 7. The left composite cable lead-out hole 63 is used for the lead-out of optical fiber and cable.

[0081] A limiting step is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the socket housing 7, and a limiting hole 76 is provided on the limiting step, such as... Figure 13 As shown, the first positioning step 41 is embedded in the limiting hole 76, and the right end of the socket core cover 43 abuts against the limiting step. When the socket insulating core 4 is installed into the socket housing 7, the socket insulating core 4 needs to be pushed to the right into the socket housing 7 until the right end of the socket core cover 43 abuts against the limiting step, so that the socket insulating core 4 reaches the preset position. Since the photoelectric pin 8 is fixed inside the socket insulating core 4, the photoelectric pin 8 also reaches the preset position. The limiting step can prevent excessive pushing and interference during subsequent docking.

[0082] Example 3

[0083] Based on Example 2, in this example, as Figure 6 As shown, the photoelectric jack 3 can be a hollow cylindrical photoelectric jack core 30 and a photoelectric jack stop handle 38. The left end of the photoelectric jack stop handle 38 is screwed to the right end of the cylindrical photoelectric jack core 30, and the right end of the spring 37 abuts against the left end of the photoelectric jack stop handle 38. An embedded annular groove 35 is formed on the outer wall of the photoelectric jack core 30, and optical fiber exit holes 310 are provided through the left and right sides of the photoelectric jack stop handle 38. In this way, the optical fiber can pass through the optical fiber exit hole 310 and the axial hole 33 in sequence and extend to the left end of the LC standard ferrule 36. The cable can be directly connected to the photoelectric jack stop handle 38. The photoelectric jack stop handle 38 can axially stop the LC standard ferrule 36 and maintain its elasticity through the spring 37.

[0084] Specifically, when assembling the photoelectric socket 3, the ceramic sleeve 34 is first inserted into the axial hole 33 from the left side. The diameter of the annular step 313 is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the ceramic sleeve 34, which can stop the ceramic sleeve 34 axially to the right. Then, the contact pawl 32 is inserted into the axial hole 33 from the left side, with the pawl's spring facing right and abutting against the ceramic sleeve 34. After the contact pawl 32 is fully inserted, the left end of the axial hole 33 is rolled to reduce its diameter, thereby axially limiting the contact pawl 32. At the same time, the inner diameter of the spring of the contact pawl 32 is reduced. The outer diameter of the contact claw 32 is smaller than that of the ceramic sleeve 34, while the inner diameter of the ceramic sleeve 34 is larger, so that the contact claw 32 and the ceramic sleeve 34 provide axial positioning between them. The LC standard ferrule 36, after optical fiber pretreatment, is inserted into the axial hole 33 from the right side. The spring 37 is then pushed into the axial hole 33 from the right side, so that the ceramic ferrule end of the LC standard ferrule 36 is inserted into the ceramic sleeve 34. The photoelectric jack stop 38 is screwed in to axially stop the spring 37, and the spring 37 can maintain the backward elasticity of the LC standard ferrule 36.

[0085] like Figure 14 As shown, the plug insulating core 9 includes a hollow first stepped cylinder 92, a hollow second stepped cylinder 94, and a hollow axial stop post 98. An annular baffle is fixedly provided at the left end of the first stepped cylinder 92, with an axial guide hole 91 at its center, through which the photoelectric pin 8 can be inserted. The right end of the first stepped cylinder 92 is fixedly connected to the left end of the second stepped cylinder 94. The right end of the second stepped cylinder 94 has a plug stop spring stepped hole 95, within which a plug stop spring 100 is provided, with the inner spring plate of the plug stop spring 100 facing left. The right end of the second stepped cylinder 94 has a plug guide hole 96. A plug guide post 97 is fixedly connected to the left end of the axial stop post 98, with the right end of the second stepped cylinder 94 abutting against the left end of the axial stop post 98. The plug guide post 97 is inserted into the plug guide hole 96, and the inner diameter of the axial stop post 98 is smaller than the diameter of the plug stop spring 100. The axial stop post 98 serves as an axial limiter, and together with the second stepped cylinder 94, it clamps the plug stop spring 100 in the middle. The plug guide hole 96 and the plug guide post 97 serve as guides, facilitating quick assembly of the second stepped cylinder 94 and the axial stop post 98.

[0086] like Figure 10As shown, the first stepped cylinder 92 is coaxially sleeved on the outside of the photoelectric socket core 30. The left end of the photoelectric socket core 30 abuts against the annular baffle, and the left end of the inner closing spring of the plug stop spring 100 abuts against the inner sidewall of the left side of the annular groove 35. The axial guide hole 91 and the plug stop spring 100 respectively play an axial limiting role on the cylindrical photoelectric socket core 30 from two directions, so that the cylindrical photoelectric socket core 30 cannot move left or right, thereby fixing the photoelectric socket 3 inside the plug insulating core 9.

[0087] Among them, such as Figure 6 As shown, the photoelectric socket stop handle 38 has a plug opening fan-shaped groove 39 on its side wall, which extends to the right end of the photoelectric socket stop handle 38. The right end of the photoelectric socket stop handle 38 has a plug closing fan-shaped groove 311. The plug opening fan-shaped groove 39 and the plug closing fan-shaped groove 311 can be used for cable welding or crimping operations.

[0088] In addition, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the connector plug 101 may include a hollow plug tail 1, a hollow plug housing 2, and a hollow plug locking nut 5.

[0089] like Figure 16 As shown, the left end of the plug tail attachment 1 is provided with an inner wall thread 11, and the inside of the plug tail attachment 1 is the right composite cable lead-out hole 13, as shown. Figure 15 , 17 As shown, the right end of the plug housing 2 has an outer wall thread 25. The right end of the plug housing 2 is screwed to the left end of the plug tail attachment 1. The left end of the plug housing 2 is fitted inside the right end of the plug locking nut 5. A first annular step 22 is fixedly fitted on the outer wall of the left end of the plug housing 2, and a second annular step 23 is fixedly fitted on the outer wall of the middle part of the plug housing 2. A movable annular groove 26 is formed between the first annular step 22 and the second annular step 23. A movable annular plate 52 is fixedly fitted on the inner wall of the right end of the plug locking nut 5. The movable annular plate 52 is coaxially fitted in the movable annular groove 26. The first step cylinder 92, the second step cylinder 94, and the axial stop post 98 are all bonded and fixed to the inner wall of the plug housing 2. That is, applying glue to the outside of the first step cylinder 92, the second step cylinder 94, and the axial stop post 98 can bond and fix the first step cylinder 92, the second step cylinder 94, and the axial stop post 98 to the inner wall of the plug housing 2. Figure 11 , 17As shown, the right end of the socket housing 7 may be provided with an external thread 75, and the left end of the plug locking nut 5 may be provided with an internal thread 51, so that the socket housing 7 and the plug locking nut 5 can be screwed together and fixed. Since the movable annular plate 52 can rotate circumferentially within the movable annular groove 26, when the socket housing 7 and the plug housing 2 are screwed together and tightened, only the plug locking nut 5 needs to be rotated, that is, the socket housing 7 and the plug housing 2 can remain relatively fixed. The right composite cable lead-out hole 13 is used for the lead-out of optical fiber and cable. A square flange can be fixedly fitted on the outside of the socket housing 7, and four fixing holes can be provided on the side wall of the square flange for easy installation and fixing.

[0090] like Figure 15 As shown, an axial first annular plate 21 is fixedly provided on the inner sidewall of the left end of the plug housing 2, as... Figure 13 As shown, the left end of the second stepped cylinder 94 abuts against the axial first annular plate 21. When inserting the plug insulating core 9 into the plug housing 2, the plug insulating core 9 needs to be pushed to the left into the plug housing 2 until the left end of the second stepped cylinder 94 abuts against the axial first annular plate 21, so that the plug insulating core 9 reaches the preset position. Since the photoelectric socket 3 is fixed inside the plug insulating core 9, the photoelectric socket 3 also reaches the preset position. The axial first annular plate 21 can prevent excessive pushing and interference during subsequent docking.

[0091] In this embodiment, both the connector plug 101 and the connector socket 102 are made of metal. The internal contacts are then isolated using the socket insulating core 4 and the plug insulating core 9, respectively, achieving electromagnetic signal shielding and meeting radio frequency transmission requirements.

[0092] In summary, the assembly method of the integrated coaxial optoelectronic connector provided in this embodiment can include the following steps:

[0093] like Figure 2 As shown, the photoelectric socket 3 is coaxially inserted into the plug insulating core 9 and axially stopped by the plug stop spring 100. Then, glue is applied to the outside of the plug insulating core 9 and it is coaxially placed into the plug housing 2. Then, the plug housing 2 is passed through the plug locking nut 5 to the right and then the plug tail attachment 1 is screwed to the plug housing 2 for fixation.

[0094] The photoelectric pin 8 is coaxially inserted into the socket insulating core 4 and axially stopped by the socket stop spring 10. Then, glue is applied to the outside of the socket insulating core 4 and it is coaxially inserted into the socket housing 7. Then, the socket tail attachment 6 is axially threaded to the left end of the socket housing 7. Finally, the plug locking nut 5 is threaded to the socket housing 7 to achieve the coaxial fixed connection between the photoelectric connector plug and the socket.
