Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber connectors, in particular to a single-core UPC non-directional direct plug-in optical fiber connector. Background Art
[0002] Fiber optic connectors are devices that are removable (movable) connections between optical fibers. They precisely connect the two end faces of the optical fiber so that the light energy output by the transmitting optical fiber can be coupled to the receiving optical fiber to the maximum extent, and the impact on the system caused by its involvement in the optical link is minimized. This is the basic requirement of fiber optic connectors. To a certain extent, fiber optic connectors affect the reliability and various performances of the optical transmission system. Existing fiber optic connectors are usually standard SC plug-in structures, FC spiral structures, and spiral buckle structures. When adapting, the existing plug structure needs to make the slot and the plug block consistent in direction before docking. The connection efficiency is low and it is easy to connect incorrectly. It also needs to be adjusted many times during the connection, which is relatively cumbersome. In addition, it is very easy to contaminate the cross section of the optical fiber during the plug-in process, thereby affecting the communication quality of the optical fiber link. The main reason for this kind of directional docking is that the optical fiber has an APC end face, and the direction needs to be distinguished during docking. The main reason for the existence of APC is that the return loss is large when the UPC processing level is not high before, which affects the communication of television services. With the development of technology, the return loss of UPC can already meet most of the existing business applications, and major operators and radio and television are gradually removing APC. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a single-core UPC non-directional plug-in fiber optic connector to improve the efficiency of operation and maintenance and avoid work errors.

During the process of inserting the single-core UPC optical fiber plug 1 into the single-core UPC optical fiber adapter 2, the retaining spring 12 is first stretched open under the action of the guide angle 26 of the single-core UPC optical fiber adapter 2 until the retaining spring 12 falls into the U-shaped groove 25 on the single-core UPC optical fiber adapter 2, so as to realize the plugging between the single-core UPC optical fiber plug 1 and the single-core UPC optical fiber adapter 2. When the single-core UPC optical fiber plug 1 needs to be pulled out, it is only necessary to hold the landing base 110 and pull it backwards. Since the landing base 110 and the outer sleeve 13 are connected as a whole through threads, the landing base 1 10 will synchronously drive the outer sleeve 13 to move backward, and the semicircular boss 135 in the third chamber 131 in the outer sleeve 13 will contact the eight-shaped groove 121 on the retaining spring 12, and the retaining spring 12 will be synchronously stretched open, so that the single-core UPC optical fiber adapter 2 can be pulled out, and the single-core UPC optical fiber plug 1 and the single-core UPC optical fiber adapter 2 can be separated. In this embodiment, the single-core UPC optical fiber plug 1 and the single-core UPC optical fiber adapter 2 cooperate with each other, and the original square interface is changed to a circular interface to realize the single-core UPC direct plug-in and pull-out optical fiber connection regardless of direction. Without direction adjustment, the blind plug connection effect of the single-core UPC can be achieved, which improves the efficiency of the single-core UPC connection, thereby improving the work efficiency of operation and maintenance and avoiding work errors.
