[0002] With the development of communication technology, the operating frequency of the switching chips used is getting higher and higher, and the number of I / O ports they carry is also increasing. In the evolution of current switching technology, using optical engine technology to directly convert the electrical signals of the switching chip into optical signals for data exchange has become one of the important development paths. Considering cost, as many as 256 adapter ports will be directly installed on the limited front panel of the chassis.

[0054] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the content disclosed in this specification.

[0055] Please see Figures 1 to 11 It should be understood that the structures, proportions, sizes, etc., illustrated in the accompanying drawings are merely for illustrative purposes to aid those skilled in the art and to facilitate understanding and reading. They are not intended to limit the scope of the invention and therefore have no substantial technical significance.

[0056] The purpose of this embodiment is to provide a quick-release structure and chassis for fiber optic connectors, enabling independent assembly and disassembly of high-density fiber optic connectors, reducing the complexity of fiber optic connector disassembly, and improving production efficiency. The following will describe in detail the principle and implementation method of the quick-release structure and chassis for fiber optic connectors according to this embodiment, so that those skilled in the art can understand the quick-release structure and chassis for fiber optic connectors according to this embodiment without creative effort.

[0057] This embodiment provides a quick-release structure for an optical fiber connector. Figure 1 The diagram shown is an overall structural schematic of the quick-release structure 100 of the fiber optic connector 200 in this application. Figure 1 As shown, the quick-release structure 100 of the fiber optic connector 200 in this embodiment includes: a bracket body 110, a replaceable slot 120, a first pressure plate 130, a second pressure plate 140, a handle 150, a first link assembly 160, and a second link assembly (not shown in the figure).

[0058] The bracket body 110, the replaceable slot 120, and the handle 150 are preferably made of plastic, the first pressure plate 130 and the second pressure plate 140 are made of, but not limited to, aluminum, and the first connecting rod assembly 160 and the second connecting rod assembly are preferably made of metal.

[0059] In this embodiment, the bracket body 110 is provided with at least one fixed slot 111, and the replaceable slot 120 is installed at the front end of the bracket body 110 and has a plurality of slots that match the optical fiber adapter port 300. The replaceable slot 120 is connected to the bracket body 110 by screws or the like, allowing the replaceable slot 120 to be detached from the bracket body 110, enabling the replacement of the replaceable slot 120 with different sized slots to adapt to different specifications or numbers of optical fiber connectors 200 in the connector head 220.

[0060] Figure 2 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the fiber optic connector 200 assembled with the quick-release structure 100 of the fiber optic connector in this application. Figure 2 As shown, the fiber optic connector 200 assembled in the quick-release structure 100 includes a wire body 210 and a connector head 220. When the quick-release structure 100 assembles the fiber optic connector 200, the wire body 210 of the fiber optic connector 200 is inserted into the fixing slot 111 of the bracket body 110, and the connector head 220 of the fiber optic connector 200 is pressed into the corresponding slot in the replaceable slot 120.

[0061] Specifically, in this embodiment, the support body 110 is a hollow support formed by at least two crossbeams and at least two longitudinal beams; the side surface of the support body 110 is provided with a plurality of fixing slots 111, and the fixing slots 111 are disposed on one side surface of the support body 110.

[0062] The number of fixed slots 111 is usually determined according to the number of fiber optic connectors 200 to be assembled. In this embodiment, the wire 210 of one fiber optic connector is fixed by two fixed slots 111. Figure 3 The diagram shows the structure of the quick-release structure 10 of the fiber optic connector in this application when the pressure plate is opened. Specifically, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the fixing slot 111 includes a first set of slots 111a and a second set of slots 111b arranged along the direction of the crossbeam, wherein the first set of slots 111a is located above the second set of slots 111b; the first set of slots 111a and the second set of slots 111b are used to respectively hold the wire 210 of one optical fiber connector 200. Each set of slots includes two fixing slots 111 arranged laterally, distributed for fixing different parts of the wire 210 of the optical fiber connector 200.

[0063] Specifically, in this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, the replaceable slot 120 includes a support post 121 and several support plates 122 disposed on both sides of the support post 121; a bayonet is formed between two adjacent support plates 122. The bayonet is used to hold the connector head 220 of the fiber optic connector 200, so that the connector head 220 of the fiber optic connector 200 can be easily connected to the fiber optic adapter port 300.

[0064] In this embodiment, the first pressure plate 130 and the second pressure plate 140 are respectively connected to the two sides of the replaceable slot 120 via a rotating shaft, and can rotate relative to the replaceable slot 120. After the fiber optic connector 200 is assembled and connected to the fiber optic adapter port 300, it cooperates with the buckle 230 of the fiber optic connector 200 to control the fiber optic connector 200 to detach from the fiber optic adapter port 300.

[0065] The first pressure plate 130 and the second pressure plate 140 are approximately parallel to the replaceable slot 120, forming baffles for the slot in the replaceable slot 120. The first pressure plate 130 and the second pressure plate 140 can rotate relative to the replaceable slot 120 via a pivot, rotating to... Figure 3The replacement slot 120 is shown to be perpendicular to it, i.e., rotated 90°. Thus, when assembling the fiber optic connector 200 into the quick-release structure 100, after opening the first pressure plate 130 and the second pressure plate 140 to be perpendicular to the replacement slot 120, the connector head 220 of the fiber optic connector 200 is pressed into the replacement slot 120. Then, the first pressure plate 130 and the second pressure plate 140 are rotated back to their original positions, i.e., rotated to be parallel to the replacement slot 120.

[0066] In this embodiment, the handle 150 is mounted on the top of the support body 110, the front end of the handle 150 is movably connected to the support body 110, and the other end is a free end.

[0067] Specifically, in this embodiment, the handle 150 has a cavity inside, and when the handle 150 is placed on the support body 110, the top end of the support body 110 is inserted into the cavity of the handle 150. Figure 4 The diagram shown is an exploded view of the quick-release structure of the fiber optic connector in this application. Specifically, as shown... Figure 4 As shown, the handle 150 has a first through hole 151 and a second through hole (not shown) on its two sides. The first through hole 151 is connected to the first connecting rod assembly 160, and the second through hole is connected to the second connecting rod assembly.

[0068] Furthermore, in this embodiment, as Figure 4 As shown, the first through hole 151 and the second through hole each include a sliding hole portion 151a and a locking portion 151b; one end of the first connecting rod assembly 160 and one end of the second connecting rod assembly slide within the corresponding sliding hole portion 151a and can be locked within the corresponding locking portion 151b.

[0069] Wherein, one end of the first connecting rod assembly 160 can slide along the sliding hole 151a of the first through hole 151, and when it slides to the locking part 151b, it is locked at the locking part 151b, thereby limiting the first connecting rod assembly 160; correspondingly, one end of the second connecting rod assembly can also slide along the sliding hole of the second through hole, and when it slides to the corresponding locking part, it is locked at the locking part, thereby limiting the second connecting rod assembly.

[0070] In this embodiment, the first connecting rod assembly 160 is connected between the handle 150 and the first pressure plate 130. The rotation of the handle 150 drives the first connecting assembly to move, thereby driving the first pressure plate 130 to move. The second connecting rod assembly is connected between the handle 150 and the second pressure plate 140. The rotation of the handle 150 drives the second connecting assembly to move, thereby driving the second pressure plate 140 to move. The movement of the first pressure plate 130 and the movement of the second pressure plate 140 control the installation and removal of the fiber optic connector 200 from the fiber optic adapter port 300.

[0071] The first link assembly 160 and the second link assembly are respectively located on both sides of the support body 110. Specifically, in this embodiment, as... Figure 4 As shown, the first link assembly 160 and the second link assembly respectively include a first link 161 and a second link 162; the first end of the first link 161 is a sliding column, which can slide along the sliding hole 151a of the handle 150 and can be locked in the locking part 151b when sliding to the locking part 151b of the handle 150; the second end is fixed to the first end of the second link 162; the second end of the second link 162 is connected to the first pressure plate 130 or the second pressure plate 140 corresponding to the second end of the second link 162.

[0072] In this embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the first pressure plate 130 is provided with a hook 131, the second pressure plate 140 is provided with a hook 141, and the second end of the second connecting rod 162 is a corresponding locking post 162a that matches and connects with the hooks 131 and 141. When the first pressure plate 130 and the second pressure plate 140 are close to and parallel to the replaceable slot 120, the hooks 131 on the first pressure plate 130 and the hooks 141 on the second pressure plate 140 respectively hook onto the corresponding locking posts 162a on the second connecting rod 162. The movement of the second connecting rod 162 can drive the movement of the first pressure plate 130 and the second pressure plate 140. The movement of the first pressure plate 130 and the second pressure plate 140 causes the fiber optic connector 200 to disengage from the fiber optic adapter port 300, realizing the quick and convenient disassembly of the fiber optic connector 200 from the fiber optic adapter port 300.

[0073] Figure 5 The diagram shown is a schematic representation of the quick-release structure 100 of the fiber optic connector in this application after assembling the fiber optic connector 200. Figure 5As shown, after the fiber optic connector 200's wire 210 is fixed in the fixing slot 111, part of the wire 210 passes through the cutout in the bracket body 110 to the other side surface of the bracket body 110, and the connector heads 220 on both sides are respectively pressed into the replaceable slots 120. The front end of the connector head 220 of the fiber optic connector 200 passes through the replaceable slot 120 to connect with the fiber optic adapter port 300.

[0074] Figure 6 This diagram shows the fiber optic connector 200 and the fiber optic adapter port 300 after the quick-release structure 100 of the fiber optic connector in this application is assembled. Figure 6 As shown, the fiber optic adapter port 300 is mounted on the front panel of the chassis, which will... Figure 5 The quick-release structure 100 shown is assembled with the fiber optic connector 200. The overall structure is assembled onto the fiber optic adapter port 300 along the guide post of the front panel. The fiber optic connector 200 is directly snapped onto the corresponding fiber optic adapter port 300 by its own clip 230, thereby achieving fixation. Figure 7 The diagram shows the overall structure of the fiber optic connector after the quick-release structure 100 is assembled with the fiber optic connector 200, and the assembly diagram of the fiber optic adapter port 300. Figure 7 As shown. Therefore, in this embodiment, the fiber optic connector 200 is regularly assembled onto an independent high-density fiber optic quick-release structure 100, and then assembled as a whole along the front panel of the chassis to the fiber optic adapter port 300. The fiber optic connector 200 is directly snapped onto the corresponding adapter port using its own clips 230. This achieves the assembly and disassembly of the high-density fiber optic connector 200 in a limited space, reducing the complexity of disassembling the fiber optic connector 200 and improving production efficiency.

[0075] Figure 8 The image shown is a side view of the fiber optic connector 200 and fiber optic adapter port 300 assembled after the quick-release structure 100 of the fiber optic connector in this application is assembled. Figure 9 The image shown is a top view of the fiber optic connector 200 assembled with the fiber optic adapter port 300 using the quick-release structure 100 of the fiber optic connector in this application. Specifically, in this embodiment, as... Figure 8 As shown, after the fiber optic connector 200 is assembled and connected to the fiber optic adapter port 300, the plates of the first pressure plate 130 and the second pressure plate 140 are respectively placed on the outside of the corresponding buckles 230 of the fiber optic connector 200, as shown. Figure 9 As shown, the front ends of the first pressure plate 130 and the second pressure plate 140 are respectively aligned and placed on the outside of the corresponding buckle 230 of the optical fiber connector 200.

[0076] Figure 10The image shown is a side view of the quick-release structure 100 of the fiber optic connector in this application after it is assembled with the fiber optic connector 200 and then detached from the fiber optic adapter port 300. Figure 11 The image shown is a top view of the quick-release structure 100 of the fiber optic connector in this application after it has been assembled with the fiber optic connector 200 and disassembled from the fiber optic adapter port 300. (See image below.) Figure 10 As shown, when it is necessary to detach the fiber optic connector 200 from the fiber optic adapter port 300, using the contact point between the handle 150 and the front panel as a fulcrum, the free end of the handle is rotated upwards. The handle 150 drives the first connecting rod assembly 160 and the second connecting assembly to move relative to each other, as shown. Figure 11 As shown, the relative movement of the first connecting rod assembly 160 and the second connecting assembly drives the plate of the first pressure plate 130 and the second pressure plate 140 to apply force to the corresponding buckle 230 of the fiber optic connector 200, so that the fiber optic connector 200 is disengaged from the fiber optic adapter port 300, and then the quick-release structure 100 containing the fiber optic connector is pulled out of the chassis, thereby removing the entire quick-release structure 100 of the fiber optic connector from the chassis.

[0077] The present invention also provides a chassis, the front panel of which includes a fiber optic adapter port 300 and a quick-release structure 100 for a fiber optic connector as described above, which can be adapted to connect with the fiber optic adapter port 300. The structure of the quick-release structure 100 for the fiber optic connector has been described in detail above and will not be repeated here.

[0078] In summary, this invention assembles fiber optic connectors into a single, high-density fiber optic quick-release structure, and then mounts it as a whole along the front panel of the chassis to the fiber optic adapter port. The connectors' own clips directly engage with the corresponding adapter ports, achieving high-density fiber optic connector assembly and disassembly within a limited space. This reduces the complexity of connector disassembly and improves production efficiency. Therefore, this invention effectively overcomes the shortcomings of existing technologies and has high industrial application value.

[0079] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention and are not intended to limit the invention. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in the present invention should still be covered by the claims of the present invention.
