[0002] With the continuous development of society and the continuous advancement of science and technology, adapter-related technologies are also constantly improving. Fiber optic attenuators can reduce signal energy to achieve the required optical power range. Fiber optic attenuators reduce fixed light energy through optical fibers with fixed attenuation values to achieve the required optical power range. When in use, optical fibers with fixed attenuation values need to be inserted into ceramic ferrules to make fiber optic fixed attenuators.

The gravity block 9 is fixedly connected to the fixed rod 8, and the gravity block 9 cannot be separated from the slide groove and is pushed upward. During the process of the gravity block 9 moving up along the slide groove, since the two ends of the fixed rod 8 are fixedly connected to the two limit blocks 5 respectively, the two limit blocks 5 move up at the same time. During the process of the oblique inner walls of each limit groove 15 pressing against each mounting block 2 moving up, the distance between the two mounting blocks 2 is reduced, and the first spring 19 is deformed.
