Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0015] See also Figures 1 to 3The utility model provides a technical solution: a split optical fiber adapter, comprising two shells 1, the two shells 1 are connected and fixed by ultrasonic welding, the two shells 1 are provided with core clips 3 inside, the two core clips 3 are provided with ceramic sleeves 16 inside, the outer sides of the two shells 1 are provided with embedded grooves 5, the embedded grooves 5 are provided with metal springs 2, the inner wall of the embedded grooves 5 is provided with protrusions 4 for blocking the metal springs 2, one side of the two shells 1 is integrally formed with two L-shaped blocks 11 along the diagonal direction, the two shells 1 are provided with L-shaped grooves 12 matched with the L-shaped blocks 11, and the two shells 1 are provided with L-shaped grooves 12. The L-shaped block 11 and the L-shaped groove 12 ensure that when the two shells 1 are ultrasonically welded, the L-shaped block 11 will be welded together with the inner wall of the L-shaped groove 12, thereby increasing the contact area and making the welding of the two shells 1 more secure. An insert 15 is provided on one side of the L-shaped block 11. The insert 15 and the protrusion 4 can block the metal spring 2 and prevent the metal spring 2 from separating from the shell 1, thereby ensuring the firmness and reliability of the fiber optic adapter and the fiber optic box after assembly. A through groove 6 that matches the insert 15 is provided on the shell 1, and the through groove 6 facilitates the insert 15 to pass through the shell 1.
[0016] Among them, a positioning hole 10 and a positioning column 9 are respectively provided on the adjacent sides of the two shells 1. The positioning column 9 and the positioning hole 10 are used together to play a positioning role between the two shells 1 to avoid displacement between the two shells 1. A contraction part is provided at one end of the positioning column 9, which facilitates the insertion of the positioning column 9 into the positioning hole 10.
