DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments in this application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] See also Figure 1-3 and Fig.11 The present invention provides an AOC sinking unlocking optical module, including a bottom shell 100 and a cage 200, wherein the bottom shell 100 has an installation space 101, the cage 200 has a card slot 201, and also includes an unlocking member 300 and a pull-out member 400, the unlocking member 300 is movably arranged in the bottom shell 100, and the first end of the unlocking member 300 has a protrusion 301 that cooperates with the card slot 201, and the pull-out member 400 is horizontally movably arranged in the bottom shell 100, wherein the pull-out member 400 moves to contact the unlocking member 300, drives the unlocking member 300 to move, and makes the protrusion 301 extend into the card slot 201 to complete locking or detach from the card slot 201 to complete unlocking.

[0031] When the present embodiment is in use, in the initial state, the protrusion 301 is located in the card slot 201, and the optical module is in a locked state. When unlocking is required, the pull-out member 400 is pulled horizontally to drive the head of the unlocking member 300 to sink into the bottom shell 100, so that the protrusion 301 is separated from the card slot 201, and unlocking is achieved;

[0032] In this embodiment, the pull-out member 400 is moved horizontally, so that the unlocking member 300 in contact with the pull-out member 400 sinks in the bottom shell 100, thereby unlocking the protrusion 301 and the slot 201. The operation is simple and quick, and the optical module can be unlocked and locked through a simple structural combination, without damaging the optical module easily.

[0033] In one embodiment, see Figure 4-7 The unlocking member 300 is arranged to reciprocate and rotate along the first direction S1 in the bottom shell 100 .

[0034] In this embodiment, when the optical module is unlocked, the unlocking member 300 is driven to move by the pull-out member 400, so that the unlocking member 300 rotates along the first direction S1, that is, when the pull-out member 400 is pulled outward, the first end of the unlocking member 300 is driven to rotate and sink into the bottom shell 100, and the protrusion 301 is disengaged from the slot 201, thereby unlocking the optical module.

[0035] In one embodiment, see Figure 3 and Figure 7 The second end of the unlocking member 300 has a groove 302 , and the groove 302 has a sliding inclined surface 3021 . The pulling member 400 slides on the sliding inclined surface 3021 to drive the unlocking member 300 to rotate.

[0036] In this embodiment, when the optical module is unlocked, the drawer 400 is pulled outward, and the end of the drawer 400 slides along the sliding slope 3021, pushing the unlocking member 300, causing the unlocking member 300 to rotate, causing the protrusion 301 to sink and disengage from the slot 201, thereby realizing the unlocking function.

[0037] In one embodiment, see Figure 3 and Figure 5 The groove 302 has a locking position 3022 . When the end of the drawer 400 is located at the locking position 3022 , the optical module is in a locked state.

[0038] See also Figure 2 The end of the drawer 400 has a limiting portion 401 that cooperates with the groove 302.

[0039] In this embodiment, when the optical module is in the locked state, the limiting portion 401 at the end of the drawer 400 is located at the locking position 3022 in the groove 302, so that the locking state is more secure and will not easily come off and cause accidental unlocking.

[0040] In one embodiment, see Figure 5 , further comprising a first elastic member 500 , one end of the first elastic member 500 being connected to the installation space 101 , and the other end of the first elastic member 500 being connected to the drawer 400 .

[0041] In this embodiment, when the optical module is unlocked, the pull-out member 400 is pulled outward, driving the unlocking member 300 to rotate to achieve unlocking. At this time, the first elastic member 500 is in a compressed state. When locking is required, the pull-out member 400 is released. The first elastic member 500 pushes the pull-out member 400 to reset, achieving automatic locking. The operation is simple and quick.

[0042] Specifically, the first elastic member 500 may be a spring.

[0043] When the unlocking member 300 rotates and sinks along the first direction S1, the specific unlocking method is as follows:

[0044] In the initial state, the protrusion 301 of the unlocking member 300 contacts the slot 201, and the limiting portion 401 is located in the locking position 3022;

[0045] When unlocking, the drawer 400 is pulled horizontally, so that the limit portion 401 moves along the sliding slope 3021 and disengages from the locking position 3022, driving the unlocking member 300 to rotate, so that the protruding portion 301 rotates and sinks until it disengages from the slot 201, thereby completing the unlocking;

[0046] After unlocking, the drawer 400 is released, and the first elastic member 500 drives the drawer 400 to move in the opposite direction and reset, so that the limiting portion 401 moves along the sliding inclined surface 3021 to the locking position 3022 and is locked again.

[0047] In one embodiment, see Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The unlocking member 300 reciprocates linearly in the bottom shell 100 along the second direction S2.

[0048] In this embodiment, another pulling and sinking unlocking method of the unlocking member is provided, that is, the pulling member is moved to make the unlocking member 300 sink and move as a whole along the second direction S2, so that the protrusion 301 is separated from the slot 201 to achieve unlocking.

[0049] In one embodiment, see Fig.10 The unlocking member 300 has a sliding portion 303 , which is movably embedded in a slide groove 103 provided along the second direction in the bottom shell 100 , and a second elastic member 600 connected to the sliding portion 303 is provided in the slide groove 103 .

[0050] In this embodiment, when the optical module is unlocked, the movable pull-out member 400 pushes the unlocking member 300 to be displaced and sunk as a whole along the second direction S2. During the process, the sliding portion 303 slides in the sliding groove 103. At this time, the second elastic member 600 is in a compressed state until the protrusion 301 is disengaged from the card slot 201 to achieve unlocking. When locking, the pull-out member 400 is moved in the opposite direction, and the unlocking member 300 automatically displaces and resets as a whole under the reset performance of the second elastic member 600, so that the protrusion 301 is in contact with the card slot 201 again to achieve locking.

[0051] In one embodiment, see Fig.10 The second end of the unlocking member 300 has a first inclined surface 304 , and the end of the pulling member 400 has a second inclined surface 402 , and the first inclined surface 304 and the second inclined surface 402 are in contact with each other.

[0052] In this embodiment, when the optical module is unlocked, the drawer 400 is pushed inward, so that the first inclined surface 304 and the second inclined surface 402 slide relative to each other. At this time, the drawer 400 pushes the unlocking member 300 to move downward along the second direction S2.

[0053] When the unlocking member 300 is displaced and sunk as a whole along the second direction S2, the specific unlocking method is as follows:

[0054] In the initial state, the protrusion 301 of the unlocking member 300 contacts the locking slot 201, and the second elastic member 600 keeps the unlocking member 300 in the locked position and does not move easily;

[0055] When unlocking, the drawer 400 is pushed into the bottom shell 100, and the second inclined surface 402 thereof slides relative to the first inclined surface 304 on the unlocking member 300, pushing the unlocking member 300 to move downward along the second direction S2 as a whole, until the protrusion 301 is disengaged from the slot 201, thereby achieving unlocking. At this time, the second elastic member 600 is in a compressed state;

[0056] After unlocking, the drawer 400 is released, the second elastic member 600 loses pressure, and pushes the unlocking member 300 to move upward as a whole until the protrusion 301 contacts the slot 201 again, and is locked again.

[0057] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 and Figure 7 An anti-slip portion 102 is provided in the installation space 101, and a boss 403 in contact with the anti-slip portion 102 is provided on the pull-out member 400. When the boss 403 contacts the anti-slip portion 102, the limiting portion 401 and the unlocking member 300 do not disengage.

[0058] In this embodiment, when the optical module is unlocked, the pull-out member 400 is pulled outward until the unlocking member 300 rotates and sinks to disengage the protrusion 301 from the slot 201, and the boss 403 contacts the anti-detachment portion 102. At this time, the limiting portion 401 at the end of the pull-out member 400 maintains contact with the unlocking member 300, avoiding the problem of excessive movement of the pull-out member 400, which makes it difficult to reset the pull-out member 400 and re-lock the optical module.

[0059] It should be noted that a pressing sheet 700 is provided on the bottom shell 100 , and the pressing sheet 700 is pressed over the installation space 101 to keep the unlocking member 300 and the drawer member 400 from being separated from the installation space 101 .

[0060] It should be noted that if the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indications such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc., then the directional indications are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components in a certain specific posture as shown in the accompanying drawings. If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0061] In addition, if there are descriptions involving "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the present invention, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated.
