[0021] Next, in combination with the attached drawings in the embodiments of the present invention Figure 1-Figure 4 , the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1-4 , in the embodiment of the present invention, a novel 100G QSFP028 optical module housing structure includes: a bottom shell 1. As one of the main structures, an optical device 4 is arranged inside the bottom shell 1, which plays a role in protecting and supporting the optical device 4. An unlock pull ring 2 is connected to the rear end of the bottom shell 1. The design of the unlock pull ring 2 enables users to easily lock and unlock the optical module in the host device, and the actions are simple, stable and smooth. The top shell 5 is connected to the top end of the bottom shell 1, which plays a role in fixing and protecting the optical device 4.

[0023] In the embodiment of the present invention, the front end of the unlock pull ring 2 is a "U"-shaped contact side wall 202. A hook claw 201 is provided in the center of the contact side wall 202. A contact bump 203 is connected to the front end of the contact side wall 202. The end of the contact side wall 202 is connected to a pull ring handle 204, achieving the effect of simple, stable and smooth locking and unlocking actions of the optical film block in cooperation with other structures.

[0024] In the embodiment of the present invention, anti-slip patterns are provided at the end of the pull ring handle 204, achieving the effect of increasing the friction when pulling the pull ring handle 204 and avoiding slipping.

[0025] In the embodiment of the present invention, a limiting groove 102 that fits the optical device 4 is opened inside the bottom shell 1. A fixed block 101 is connected to the inner end of the limiting groove 102. The fixed block 101 fits the end of the optical device 4, achieving the effect of firmly fixing the optical device 4 inside the bottom shell 1.

[0026] In the embodiment of the present invention, threaded holes 103 are arranged at the four corners of the limiting groove 102. Threaded through holes that fit the threaded holes 103 of the limiting groove 102 are opened through the top shell 5. Screws 6 are installed in the threaded through holes of the top shell 5 and the threaded holes 103 of the limiting groove 102, achieving the effect of connecting the bottom shell 1 and the top shell 5 through the screws 6.

[0027] In the embodiment of the utility model, a sliding groove that fits with the contact side wall 202 is opened on the side of the bottom shell 1, and a bayonet 104 that fits with the contact side wall 202 and the contact protrusion 203 is opened in the center of the side of the bottom shell 1, so that when the contact side wall 202 moves forward, the contact protrusion 203 is pushed into the bayonet 104, thereby locking the optical module.

[0028] In the embodiment of the utility model, a mounting groove 105 is opened on the side of the bottom shell 1, and a spring 3 is arranged in the mounting groove 105. The front end of the spring 3 is connected to a hook claw 201 to achieve the effect of preventing the contact protrusion 203 stuck in the bayonet 104 from automatically moving out due to interference.

[0029] Working principle: when the optical module needs to be connected to the host device, first align the optical module with the interface of the host device, then grab the pull ring handle 204 at the rear end of the optical module to insert the optical module into the interface, and then the pull ring handle 204 will push the contact side wall 202 to move forward, thereby pushing the contact protrusion 203 to be stuck in the bayonet 104, locking the optical module, and the spring 3 will apply elastic force to the hook 201 to prevent the contact protrusion 203 stuck in the bayonet 104 from automatically moving out due to interference. When the optical module needs to be moved out of the host device, pull the pull ring handle 204, the pull ring handle 204 will overcome the elastic force of the spring 3 and drive the contact side wall 202 to move outward, thereby driving the contact protrusion 203 to move out of the bayonet 104, unlocking the optical module, and moving the module out of the host device; when the optical device 4 is damaged, the optical module can be replaced by removing the screw 6; and the optical device 4 is firmly fixed on the bottom shell 1 through the limit groove 102 and the fixing block 101.
