Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber connection, and particularly to a multi-section optical fiber combination connector. Background Art
[0002] In modern optical communication technologies, optical fibers, as a medium for transmitting optical signals, are widely used in various electronic devices. In order to enable optical fibers to be effectively connected to electronic devices, so that the optical signals transmitted by the optical fibers can be received and utilized by the electronic devices, optical fiber connectors have emerged. They serve as a key bridge between optical fibers and electronic devices. Optical fiber connectors mainly consist of female seat adapters and male optical fiber connectors. The female seat adapters are usually arranged inside electronic devices, and the male optical fiber connectors are inserted into the sockets of the female seat adapters when connection is required. When the two are properly matched, a stable connection relationship can be formed, thereby realizing the clamping function of the optical fiber connector and the transmission of optical signals, and further meeting the data transmission requirements of electronic devices during optical communication. In practical applications, multiple female seat adapters are generally arranged inside electronic devices, which requires a connector with multiple sections of optical fibers combined together to be connected to them. Usually, the method is to fix multiple connectors together to form a combined connector, and then insert it into the corresponding female seat adapter; In the prior art, the combined optical fiber connector is formed by integrating multiple independent connectors. During the actual operation process, when inserting these integrated connectors into the sockets of the corresponding female seat adapters inside the electronic device respectively, a relatively large external force often needs to be applied. Because during the insertion process, there is contact between the outer surface of the connector and the inner surface of the female seat adapter. Since multiple connector units of the combined type are inserted simultaneously, the contact area increases, and the friction force also increases accordingly. This relatively large insertion force is likely to cause hard damage between the female seat adapter and the connector, thereby affecting the physical structure integrity and contact stability of the connector.
[0003] To solve the above problems, a multi-section optical fiber combination connector is proposed in the present application. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present invention proposes a multi-section optical fiber combination connector, which solves the problem that a relatively large external force needs to be applied when the combined optical fiber connector in the related art is inserted into the socket of the female seat adapter, and it is easy to cause hard damage.
[0005] The multi-section optical fiber combination connector proposed by the present invention includes a connector body, a magnetic elastic member, a V-shaped member, an airbag module, and a sealing module; Multiple connector bodies are connected side by side. A chute is provided at the bottom thereof. A loading block and an electromagnet are installed in the chute. The magnetic elastic member is inserted on the loading block and faces the electromagnet. The sealing module is sleeved on one end of the connector body. The V-shaped member is connected between the magnetic elastic member and the sealing module. The airbag module is installed in the middle of the V-shaped member and is communicated with the sealing module. A pressure sensor is arranged between the V-shaped member and the sealing module. When the connector body is inserted into the socket of the female seat adapter, the sealing module is forced to move and push the V-shaped member to fold up, so that the magnetic elastic member is forced to buffer and move towards the electromagnet and magnetically connect with the electromagnet. When the V-shaped member folds up, the airbag module is squeezed, and the gas is sent to the sealing module, causing it to expand to form a sealing structure.
[0006] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, the V-shaped member includes a first slider, a second slider and two extrusion rods. The first slider and the second slider are both slidably arranged in the chute. The first slider and the second slider are respectively connected to the magnetic elastic member and the sealing module. One ends of the two extrusion rods are hinged to each other to form a V shape and are arranged between the first slider and the second slider. The other ends of the two extrusion rods are respectively hinged to the first slider and the second slider. A loading rod is installed on one of the extrusion rods. The airbag module is installed on the loading rod and is located between the two extrusion rods.
[0007] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, the magnetic elastic member includes a magnetic rod and a first spring. A through hole is provided in the loading block. The magnetic rod slides through the through hole and faces the electromagnet. One end of the magnetic rod is fixed to the first slider. The first spring is sleeved on the magnetic rod, and both ends of the first spring are respectively connected to the loading block and the first slider.
[0008] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, the airbag module includes an airbag member. The airbag member is installed on the loading rod and is located between the two extrusion rods. A gas guide pipe communicated with the sealing module is connected to the airbag member.
[0009] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, the airbag member includes an airbag body. The airbag body is installed on the loading rod and is located between the two extrusion rods. An air inlet pipe is connected to the air inlet end of the airbag body. A first diaphragm located inside the airbag body is arranged on the air inlet pipe. One side of the first diaphragm is connected to the edge of the air inlet pipe. An air outlet pipe is connected to the air outlet end of the airbag body. A second diaphragm is arranged inside the air outlet pipe. One side of the second diaphragm is connected to the inner wall of the air outlet pipe. Both ends of the gas guide pipe are respectively communicated with the air outlet pipe and the sealing module. When the airbag body is squeezed, the gas pushes the second diaphragm to open the air outlet pipe. At this time, the first diaphragm fits with the air inlet pipe to close the air inlet pipe. When the airbag body returns to its original position, the second diaphragm returns to its original position to block the air outlet pipe, and the external gas pushes the first diaphragm to open the air inlet pipe, allowing the gas to enter the airbag body.
[0010] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, a second spring is installed inside the airbag body. The connection point between the second spring and the airbag body is offset from the positions of the air outlet pipe and the air inlet pipe. The expansion and contraction of the airbag body cooperate with the telescopic action of the second spring.
[0011] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, the sealing module includes a sealing member. The sealing member is sleeved on one end of the connector body. A moving block slidably matched with the chute is installed inside the sealing member. A fixing rod connected to the second slider is installed on the moving block. The air guide pipe is communicated with the sealing member.
[0012] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, the sealing member includes a frame-shaped pipe and a sealing bag. The frame-shaped pipe is sleeved on one end of the connector body. The moving block is installed inside the frame-shaped pipe. The sealing bag is installed on the side of the frame-shaped pipe and communicated with it. The sealing bag is square and adapted to the frame-shaped pipe. One end of the air guide pipe is communicated with the frame-shaped pipe. A control valve is installed on the frame-shaped pipe.
[0013] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, the pressure sensor is connected between the fixing rod and the second slider. A controller is installed on one of the connector bodies. The pressure sensor and the electromagnet are both connected to the controller.
[0014] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, an optical fiber line is connected to the connector body. A tapered sleeve is sleeved at the connection part of the connector body and the optical fiber line. The tapered sleeve is in a reduced diameter shape from the connector body end to the optical fiber line end.
[0015] The above technical solution of the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects: 1. When one end of the connector body of the present invention is inserted into the socket of the female seat adapter, the sealing module sleeved on one end of the connector body is forced to move on the connector body and push the V-shaped member to close. The magnetic elastic member connected to the V-shaped member is forced to compress and move towards the electromagnet. The magnetic elastic member can play a buffering role when compressed. When the magnetic elastic member abuts against the electromagnet, the electromagnet can be energized to make the magnetic elastic member magnetically connected to it, preventing the reaction force of the magnetic elastic member from applying a thrust to the adapter socket by the connector body. Through the buffering effect of the magnetic elastic member when compressed and the fixing effect after magnetic connection with the electromagnet, the present invention effectively avoids the hard damage between the connector body and the female seat adapter caused by applying a large external force during insertion, improves the contact stability between the connector body and the female seat adapter, extends the service life of both, reduces problems such as signal transmission interruption or quality decline caused by unstable connection, and ensures the stable operation of the electronic device; 2. When the V-shaped part is in the retracted state, the airbag module located in the middle of it is squeezed. After being pressed, the airbag module conducts the gas into the sealing module, causing it to expand and form a sealing structure between the connector body and the female seat adapter. This can effectively prevent dust from entering the socket of the female seat adapter and avoid dust accumulation from contaminating the contact part between the connector body and the adapter. When the airbag module is squeezed, it can cooperate with the magnetic elastic part to enhance the effect, further enhancing the buffering effect when the connector body is inserted into the socket of the female seat adapter, reducing the impact force on the connector body and the adapter during the insertion process, and further ensuring the structural safety and connection stability of both; 3. The sealing module of the present invention mainly consists of a frame-shaped tube and a sealing bag. When the airbag module is squeezed, the gas can be conducted into the frame-shaped tube, and the gas entering the frame-shaped tube is immediately replenished into the sealing bag connected to it, causing the sealing bag to expand and form a seal between the connector body and the female seat adapter. During the working process of the connector body of the present invention, heat will be generated. After the sealing bag is in the expanded and sealed state, continuous heating will cause it to further expand, thereby applying a thrust force away from the female seat adapter to the connector body. The magnetic elastic part connected to the V-shaped part will also apply a greater thrust force to the electromagnet. At this time, the sealing bag can be deflated through the control valve on the frame-shaped tube. Since a pressure sensor is provided between the V-shaped part and the sealing module, the pressure sensor can be used to monitor whether the sealing bag returns to the normal state. By deflating the sealing bag, it can not only prevent the expanded state of the sealing bag from applying a thrust force away from the female seat adapter to the connector body, but also keep the force of the magnetic elastic part against the electromagnet in the normal state, ensuring that the energy consumption of the electromagnet always remains at a low level. The above design not only ensures the stable connection of the connector body but also reduces energy consumption and improves the energy efficiency and economy of the entire connection system; 4. When it is necessary to unplug the connector body from the female seat adapter and then plug it in again later, only need to completely release the gas in the frame-shaped tube through the control valve, so that the gas in the sealing bag is discharged, and the V-shaped part returns to the unfolded state, and the airbag module also returns to its original state accordingly. During the recovery process of the airbag module, it can inhale external air into it, preparing for the next time the connector body is inserted into the socket of the female seat adapter, enabling the airbag module to conduct the gas into the sealing module, and allowing the sealing module to expand to form a sealing structure between the connector body and the female seat adapter. This design makes the plugging and unplugging operations of the connector body more convenient and fast, and at the same time ensures that a good seal and stable connection can be quickly formed when the connector body is re-inserted.

Detailed implementation manners
[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer and more understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below in combination with specific implementation manners and with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. In addition, in the following descriptions, the descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted to avoid unnecessarily confusing the concepts of the present invention.
[0019] As Figures 1-9 shown, a multi-section optical fiber combination connector proposed by the present invention includes a connector body 1, a magnetic elastic member 2, a V-shaped member 3, an airbag module 4 and a sealing module 5; Multiple connector bodies 1 are connected side by side. A chute 101 is provided at the bottom of the connector bodies 1. A loading block 102 and an electromagnet 103 are installed in the chute 101. A magnetic elastic member 2 is inserted on the loading block 102 and faces the electromagnet 103. A sealing module 5 is sleeved at one end of the connector body 1. A V-shaped member 3 is connected between the magnetic elastic member 2 and the sealing module 5. An airbag module 4 is installed in the middle of the V-shaped member 3 and is communicated with the sealing module 5. A pressure sensor 6 is arranged between the V-shaped member 3 and the sealing module 5. When the connector body 1 is inserted into the socket of the female seat adapter, the sealing module 5 moves under force and pushes the V-shaped member 3 to close, causing the magnetic elastic member 2 to move towards the electromagnet 103 under force for buffering. When the V-shaped member 3 closes, the airbag module 4 is squeezed, and the gas is conducted into the sealing module 5 to make it expand to form a sealing structure.
[0020] When the connector body 1 is inserted into the socket of the female seat adapter, the sealing module 5 is squeezed by the inner wall of the socket and moves axially along the connector body 1 to push the V-shaped member 3 to close towards the center of the chute 101. When the V-shaped member 3 closes, it drives the connected magnetic elastic member 2 to move towards the electromagnet 103. During this process, the magnetic elastic member 2 absorbs the insertion impact force through elastic deformation to achieve a buffering effect and avoid hard collision. When the magnetic elastic member 2 moves to contact the electromagnet 103, the electromagnet 103 is energized to generate magnetism and adsorbs and fixes the magnetic elastic member 2 to offset the rebound force generated after insertion, ensuring the stable fixation of the connector body 1. At the same time, when the V-shaped member 3 closes, it squeezes the airbag module 4. After the airbag module 4 is pressed, the gas is conducted into the sealing module 5 to make it expand to form a sealing structure between the connector body 1 and the female seat adapter, preventing dust from entering the female seat adapter. The pressure sensor 6 monitors the pressure between the V-shaped member 3 and the sealing module 5 in real time to adjust the on-off of the electromagnet 103 and the gas volume of the sealing module 5. Through the buffering of the magnetic elastic member 2 and the magnetic fixation of the electromagnet 103, the damage to the connector body 1 and the female seat adapter caused by the insertion force is reduced. The linked sealing of the airbag module 4 and the sealing module 5 improves the dust-proof performance of the connection system and ensures the stability of signal transmission.
[0021] Such as Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the V-shaped part 3 includes a first slider 31, a second slider 32 and two extrusion rods 33. The first slider 31 and the second slider 32 are both slidably arranged in the chute 101. The first slider 31 and the second slider 32 are respectively connected to the magnetic elastic member 2 and the sealing module 5. One ends of the two extrusion rods 33 are hinged to each other to form a V shape and are arranged between the first slider 31 and the second slider 32. The other ends of the two extrusion rods 33 are respectively hinged to the first slider 31 and the second slider 32. A loading rod 34 is installed on one extrusion rod 33. The airbag module 4 is installed on the loading rod 34 and is located between the two extrusion rods 33. When the sealing module 5 is forced to move, it can push the second slider 32 to slide in the chute 101, drive the two extrusion rods 33 to rotate around the hinge point, and the two extrusion rods 33 gradually close, squeezing the airbag module 4 therebetween. After the airbag module 4 is compressed, the gas is conducted into the sealing module 5. At the same time, the first slider 31 is pushed by the extrusion rod 33, driving the magnetic elastic member 2 to move towards the electromagnet 103.
[0022] As Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the magnetic elastic member 2 includes a magnetic rod 21 and a first spring 22. A through hole is formed in the loading block 102. The magnetic rod 21 slides through the through hole and faces the electromagnet 103. One end of the magnetic rod 21 is fixed to the first slider 31. The first spring 22 is sleeved on the magnetic rod 21, and both ends of the first spring 22 are respectively connected to the loading block 102 and the first slider 31. When the first slider 31 is pushed by the V-shaped part 3 to move, the magnetic rod 21 slides towards the electromagnet 103 along with the first slider 31, compressing the first spring 22. The elastic force of the first spring 22 provides a buffering resistance, slowing down the moving speed of the magnetic rod 21 and reducing the insertion impact force. When the magnetic rod 21 contacts the electromagnet 103, the electromagnet 103 is energized to adsorb the magnetic rod 21 to maintain the stable connection of the connector body 1. The buffering effect of the first spring 22 effectively reduces the rigid collision force at the moment of insertion. Cooperating with the adsorption and fixation of the electromagnet 103, a dual-stable mechanism of buffering and locking is realized, improving the connection reliability.
[0023] As Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the airbag module 4 includes an airbag member 41. The airbag member 41 is installed on the loading rod 34 and is located between the two extrusion rods 33. A gas guide pipe 42 connected to the sealing module 5 is connected to the airbag member 41. When the two extrusion rods 33 of the V-shaped part 3 close, the airbag member 41 is compressed, and the gas in the airbag member 41 is conducted into the sealing module 5 through the gas guide pipe 42.
[0024] As Figure 8As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the airbag member 41 includes an airbag body 411. The airbag body 411 is installed on the loading rod 34 and is located between the two pressing rods 33. The air inlet end of the airbag body 411 is connected to an air inlet pipe 412. A first diaphragm 4121 located inside the airbag body 411 is provided on the air inlet pipe 412. One side of the first diaphragm 4121 is connected to the edge of the air inlet pipe 412. The air outlet end of the airbag body 411 is connected to an air outlet pipe 413. A second diaphragm 4131 is provided inside the air outlet pipe 413. One side of the second diaphragm 4131 is connected to the inner wall of the air outlet pipe 413. Both ends of the air guide pipe 42 are respectively connected to the air outlet pipe 413 and the sealing module 5. When the airbag body 411 is squeezed, the gas pushes the second diaphragm 4131 to open the air outlet pipe 413. At this time, the first diaphragm 4121 fits against the air inlet pipe 412 to close the air inlet pipe 412. When the airbag body 411 returns to its original position, the second diaphragm 4131 returns to its original position to block the air outlet pipe 413, and the external gas pushes the first diaphragm 4121 to open the air inlet pipe 412, allowing the gas to enter the airbag body 411.
[0025] When the two pressing rods 33 are closed to squeeze the airbag body 411, the internal gas pressure of the airbag body 411 increases, pushing the second diaphragm 4131 to flip around the fixed side to open the air outlet pipe 413. At the same time, the high-pressure gas presses the first diaphragm 4121 towards the port of the air inlet pipe 412 to close the air intake path, ensuring that the gas only flows to the sealing module 5 through the air guide pipe 42. When the airbag body 411 returns to its original state, the internal air pressure is lower than the external atmospheric pressure, and the external air pushes the first diaphragm 4121 to flip around the fixed side to open the air inlet pipe 412, and the gas flows into the airbag body 411. At this time, the second diaphragm 4131 resets to block the air outlet pipe 413 to prevent gas backflow.
[0026] As Figure 8 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, a second spring 414 is installed inside the airbag body 411. The connection point between the second spring 414 and the airbag body 411 is offset from the positions of the air outlet pipe 413 and the air inlet pipe 412. The expansion and contraction of the airbag body 411 cooperate with the telescopic action of the second spring 414. When the V-shaped member 3 is closed to squeeze the airbag body 411, the second spring 414 is compressed to store elastic potential energy. When the connector body 1 is pulled out and the V-shaped member 3 loses the squeezing force, the second spring 414 releases the potential energy, pushing the airbag body 411 to quickly reset, accelerating the air intake process of the airbag module 4, and preparing for the exhaust during the next insertion. The second spring 414 enhances the reset power of the airbag body 411, shortens the recovery time of the airbag module 4, and improves the response efficiency of the plugging and unplugging operation of the connector body 1.
[0027] As Figure 4 、 Figure 5 And Figure 9As shown, in this embodiment, the sealing module 5 includes a sealing member 51, which is sleeved on one end of the connector body 1, and a moving block 52 that slides with the slide groove 101 is installed on the inner side of the sealing member 51, and a fixing rod 53 connected with the second slider 32 is installed on the moving block 52, and the air duct 42 is connected with the sealing member 51; when the connector body 1 is inserted into the female adapter, the sealing member 51 is squeezed by the socket, driving the moving block 52 to slide in the slide groove 101, and pushing the second slider 32 to move through the fixing rod 53, triggering the V-shaped member 3 to collapse, and at the same time, the gas generated by the extrusion of the airbag module 4 enters the sealing member 51 through the air duct 42, causing it to expand and seal.
[0028] like Figure 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the sealing member 51 includes a frame-shaped tube 511 and a sealing bag 512. The frame-shaped tube 511 is sleeved on one end of the connector body 1, the moving block 52 is installed on the inner side of the frame-shaped tube 511, the sealing bag 512 is installed on the side of the frame-shaped tube 511 and is connected thereto, the sealing bag 512 is square and compatible with the frame-shaped tube 511, one end of the air guide tube 42 is connected to the frame-shaped tube 511, and a control valve 513 is installed on the frame-shaped tube 511.
[0029] After the airbag body 411 is squeezed, the gas is guided along the air guide tube 42 to the frame-shaped tube 511, and the frame-shaped tube 511 then fills the gas entering therein into the sealing bag 512, so that it expands and fits between the socket of the female adapter and the connector body 1 to form a seal. When the connector body 1 continues to generate heat during operation, the gas in the sealing bag 512 expands due to the heat, and the pressure increases, pushing the sealing member 51 to move away from the female adapter. At this time, the pressure sensor 6 detects abnormal pressure, opens the control valve 513 on the frame-shaped tube 511, releases part of the gas, reduces the pressure in the sealing bag 512, and restores it to its initial expansion state. During the plugging and unplugging operation, the gas in the sealing bag 512 is emptied through the control valve 513, and the V-shaped member 3 loses the squeezing force and unfolds under the spring force of the magnetic elastic member 2, so as to facilitate the removal of the connector body 1.
[0030] like Figure 6As shown, in this embodiment, the pressure sensor 6 is connected between the fixed rod 53 and the second slider 32, and a controller 105 is installed on one of the connector bodies 1, and the pressure sensor 6 and the electromagnet 103 are both connected to the controller 105; when the sealing module 5 moves or the sealing capsule 512 expands, the relative displacement between the fixed rod 53 and the second slider 32 will cause the force on the pressure sensor 6 to change, and the sensor converts the pressure signal into an electrical signal and transmits it to the controller 105. The controller 105 determines the current state according to a preset threshold value. During insertion, when the pressure reaches the set value, the controller 105 triggers the electromagnet 103 to energize and adsorb the magnetic elastic member 2. During operation, if the pressure rises abnormally, such as thermal expansion of the sealing capsule 512, the sealing member 51 is pushed away from the mother The seat adapter moves in the direction of the seat adapter. At this time, the pressure sensor 6 detects abnormal pressure, and the controller 105 opens the control valve 513 to release part of the gas, reduce the pressure in the sealing bag 512, and restore it to its initial expansion state. During the plugging and unplugging operation, the gas in the sealing bag 512 is evacuated through the control valve 513, and the V-shaped part 3 loses the extrusion force and expands under the spring force of the magnetic elastic part 2, so as to facilitate the pull-out of the connector body 1. When pulling out, the controller 105 controls the electromagnet 103 to cut off the power and release the magnetic connection. The closed-loop control system of the pressure sensor 6 and the controller 105 realizes the intelligent monitoring and automatic adjustment of the connection status of the connector body 1, improves the response accuracy and stability of the system, reduces manual intervention, and ensures the reliability of the connection process and energy efficiency optimization.
[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, an optical fiber line 104 is connected to the connector body 1, and a conical sleeve is provided at the connection between the connector body 1 and the optical fiber line 104. The conical sleeve is tapered from the end of the connector body 1 to the end of the optical fiber line 104, and the conical sleeve can protect the optical fiber line 104; the reliable connection of the optical fiber line 104 is the core of the entire optical communication system, and the structural design of the connector body 1 provides it with physical support and environmental protection, thereby ensuring efficient and stable transmission of optical signals.
[0032] The specific working principle of the present invention is as follows: Insert one end of the connector body 1 with the sealing module 5 into the socket of the female adapter. The sealing member 51 of the sealing module 5 first contacts the front end of the socket. After being squeezed, the second slider 32 of the V-shaped member 3 is pushed to slide toward the center of the slide groove 101 through the moving block 52 and the fixing rod 53, driving the two squeezing rods 33 to collapse into a V shape. When the squeezing rods 33 collapse, the airbag body 411 of the airbag module 4 is squeezed. The gas in the airbag body 411 is pressed into the frame tube 511 and the sealing bag 512 of the sealing module 5 through the air outlet pipe 413 and the air guide pipe 42, so that the airbag 511 expands to seal the gap of the socket. Meanwhile, the first slider 31 of the V-shaped part 3 pushes the magnetic rod 21 of the magnetic elastic part 2 towards the electromagnet 103, compressing the first spring 22 to buffer the insertion impact force. When the magnetic rod 21 contacts the electromagnet 103, the controller 105 triggers the electromagnet 103 to be powered on, magnetically adsorbing and fixing the magnetic rod 21 to offset the rebounding force, ensuring the stable connection of the connector body 1. The pressure sensor 6 monitors the pressure between the fixing rod 53 and the second slider 32 in real time and feeds it back to the controller 105 to confirm the sealing and locking state; The optical fiber line 104 completes the optical signal transmission through the connector body 1 and the female seat adapter. If the connector body 1 generates heat during operation, causing the sealing capsule 512 to thermally expand and the internal air pressure to increase, the pressure sensor 6 detects the abnormal pressure. The controller 105 opens the control valve 513 to release some gas, enabling the sealing capsule 512 to return to its normal degree of expansion, avoiding generating a thrust force on the connector body 1, and maintaining the low-energy consumption adsorption state of the electromagnet 103 at the same time; When it is necessary to pull out the connector body 1, the controller 105 turns off the electromagnet 103 and opens the control valve 513 to evacuate the gas in the sealing capsule 512. The first spring 22 of the magnetic elastic part 2 resets and pushes the magnetic rod 21 and the first slider 31 to retract. The extrusion rod 33 of the V-shaped part 3 unfolds under the action of the elastic force, driving the sealing module 5 to reset. The airbag body 411 of the airbag module 4 resets under the action of the second spring 414, inhaling external air through the air inlet pipe 412 to prepare for the next insertion. At this time, the connector body 1 can be easily pulled out to complete the disassembly. Through the buffer locking of the magnetic elastic part 2, the mechanical transmission of the V-shaped part 3, the gas-driven sealing of the airbag module 4, and the intelligent regulation of the controller 105, the present invention realizes the low-damage insertion, reliable fixation, adaptive sealing, and convenient plugging and unplugging of the multi-section optical fiber combined connector, improving the stability and service life of the optical communication system.
