Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of optical splitters, and particularly to a protection container for a plug-in optical splitter. Background Art

[0002] Fiber to the home (FTTH), also known as fiber to the premises, refers to a broadband telecommunications system that provides multiple services such as Internet and television by deploying fiber optic cables. Fiber optic communication has the characteristics of strong anti-interference, large bandwidth, and light weight. Therefore, FTTH has a wide range of applications.

[0003] In the process of promoting FTTH, it is necessary to reconstruct the optical fibers for some users who use telephone lines to access the Internet. During the reconstruction process, new fiber optic cables need to be connected. Since the fiber optic bandwidth is very large, an optical splitter needs to be connected to evenly distribute the signals to multiple users to make full use of the bandwidth resources.

[0004] The plug-in optical splitter has the characteristics of small volume and wide working wavelength range, and has a wide range of applications. On its hardware structure, there are an inlet of the optical path and multiple outlets on its outer surface. The optical port is one of the main structures of the optical splitter, and in the plug-in optical splitter, it is exposed outside the housing of the optical splitter. Therefore, the optical port is a structure of the optical splitter that is relatively easy to be damaged.

[0005] In the operation of fiber optic reconstruction, an optical splitter needs to be installed. During the transportation of the optical splitter, it is usually packaged with cardboard boxes and foam boards. However, there is no protection for the optical port, and it is very easy to cause damage to the optical port due to collision or stacking.

[0006] In summary, there is currently a lack of a container that can protect the plug-in optical splitter. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned defects existing in the prior art and provide a protection container for a plug-in optical splitter to protect the plug-in optical splitter during transportation.

[0008] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0009] The present invention provides a protection container for a plug-in optical splitter, including:

[0010] A box body, on the inner wall of which a buffer frame matching the box body is connected, and the inner side of the buffer frame matches the plug-in optical splitter;

[0011] A box cover, which is movably connected to the box body, and a buffer plate is connected to the box cover, and a first groove matching the optical port of the plug-in optical splitter is opened on the buffer plate.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution, a buffer corner protector block is provided at the bottom inside the buffer frame, and there is a gap between the bottom inside the buffer frame and the bottom of the plug-in optical splitter.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution, a second groove matching the fixing screws of the plug-in optical splitter is also provided on the buffer plate.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution, the buffer frame abuts against the extension plate of the plug-in optical splitter.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution, an opening is provided inside the top of the buffer frame.

[0016] As a preferred technical solution, an opening is provided outside the top of the buffer frame.

[0017] As a preferred technical solution, the opening is semicircular.

[0018] As a preferred technical solution, bump blocks are further provided on opposite sides of the buffer frame, and when the box body and the box cover are closed, the buffer plate abuts against the bump blocks.

[0019] As a preferred technical solution, slotted grooves are provided at intervals on the inner wall surface of the buffer frame in the longitudinal direction and the transverse direction.

[0020] As a preferred technical solution, a buckle is provided at the buckling position of the box body and the box cover.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0022] (1) Protect the plug-in optical splitter as a whole: By the cooperation of the buffer frame provided in the box body and the buffer plate on the box cover, the plug-in optical splitter is wrapped as a whole, which can reduce the possibility of damage to the optical splitter caused by vibration and impact external forces.

[0023] (2) Protect the optical ports of the plug-in optical splitter: By providing bump blocks on opposite sides of the buffer frame, when the box body and the box cover are closed, the buffer plate abuts against the bump blocks. The setting of the bump blocks can maintain an upward pushing force after closing, reducing the possibility of damaging the optical ports due to the force on the box cover.

[0024] (3) Easy to take out: By providing an opening inside the top of the buffer frame, it is more convenient to take out the plug-in optical splitter. The setting of the buffer corner protector block can further protect the top corners of the optical splitter while avoiding excessive negative pressure between the optical splitter and the bottom. The slotted grooves on the inner wall of the buffer frame can also prevent the optical splitter from being too closely in contact with the wall surface, making it difficult to take out.

[0033] Embodiment 1

[0034] In view of the problems existing in the aforementioned prior art, this embodiment provides an insertion - type optical splitter protection container to protect the insertion - type optical splitter 3 and reduce the possibility of damage caused by bumps and collisions during transportation.

[0035] See Figure 3 , most of the insertion - type optical splitters 3 include a housing and an extension plate 14 connected to the housing. A plurality of optical ports 15 are provided on the surface of the extension plate 14, and fixing screws 13 are arranged at both ends of the extension plate 14. From the insertion - type optical splitter 3, it can be seen that its vulnerable parts are mainly the exposed optical ports 15 and the bottom corners of the housing.

[0036] See Figure 1 , the protection container provided in this embodiment mainly includes two parts: a box body 1 and a box cover 4. The box body 1 and the box cover 4 are hinged, and the edge parts are turned outwards. The box body 1 and the box cover 4 are made of hard materials, and the thickness can be appropriately selected in practice to ensure that the contact part between the box body 1 and the box cover 4 can transmit pressure. See Figure 2 , by setting a buckle at the contact part between the box body 1 and the box cover 4, the two parts can be conveniently buckled and opened. The strength of the buckle can ensure the stable buckling of the box body 1 and the box cover 4.

[0037] See Figure 1 , a buffer frame 2 matching the box body 1 is firmly connected inside the box body 1, and the inside of the buffer frame 2 matches the housing part of the insertion - type optical splitter 3. Correspondingly, a buffer plate 5 is firmly connected inside the box cover 4. First grooves 6 matching the optical ports 5 and second grooves 8 matching the fixing screws 13 are opened at corresponding positions on the buffer plate 5, so that when the box body 1 and the box cover 4 are closed, all around the insertion - type optical splitter 3 can be buffered. The buffer frame 2 and the buffer plate 5 are made of polyethylene foam plastic, which has the advantages of low density, good flexibility and high recovery rate.

[0038] Openings 9 are provided on both the inner side and the outer side of the upper surface of the buffer frame 2. The inner opening 9 can facilitate the taking out and putting in of the insertion - type optical splitter 3, and the outer opening 9 can facilitate the overall taking out of the buffer frame 2 for replacement, so as to achieve reuse. In addition, convex blocks 10 are connected to both symmetric sides of the upper surface of the buffer frame 2. The height of the convex blocks 10 is determined by the hardness of the polyethylene foam plastic, so as to ensure the support of the convex blocks 10 on the buffer plate 5 on the premise that the box body 1 and the box cover 4 can be buckled, and further reduce the possibility of crushing the optical ports 15 due to excessive force on the box cover 4.

[0039] See Figure 1It is a schematic diagram when the plug-in optical splitter 3 is installed. At this time, the bottom corners of the housing of the plug-in optical splitter 3 are abutted against the buffer corner protection blocks 7 arranged at the inner bottom of the buffer frame 2 to protect the bottom corners. At the same time, the buffer corner protection blocks 7 leave a certain gap between the plug-in optical splitter 3 and the bottom of the buffer frame 2, so as to protect the plug-in optical splitter 3 while avoiding being completely attached, which may cause the plug-in optical splitter 3 to be sucked to the bottom of the buffer frame 2 and unable to be taken out. In addition, the extension plate 14 of the plug-in optical splitter 3 is abutted against the top of the buffer frame 2, making the plug-in optical splitter 3 in a "floating" state.

[0040] It should be noted that Figure 3 the plug-in optical splitter 3 in

[0041] is only for illustration. Any plug-in optical splitter that can achieve the same effect should fall within the protection scope of this application.

[0042] Compared with Embodiment 1, the buffer frame 2 and the buffer plate 5 of the plug-in optical splitter protection container in this embodiment are realized by foam boards. In addition, referring to Figure 4 , the inner side walls of the buffer frame 2 are provided with slots 12 at intervals in the longitudinal and transverse directions, which can further facilitate taking out. The depth, width of the slots 12 and the intervals between the slots 12 should be set according to the actual size to ensure the buffering ability while reducing a part of the contact area, and facilitate taking out by reducing friction and negative pressure.

[0043] The above is only the specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can easily think of various equivalent modifications or substitutions, and these modifications or substitutions should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
