[0035] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features and technical solutions therein can be combined with each other.

[0036] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined or explained in subsequent drawings.

[0037] Example 1, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 5 A sealing mechanism includes a connecting sleeve 2, a sealing assembly 3 is provided on one side of the connecting sleeve 2, the sealing assembly 3 includes a sealing cover 301 provided on one side of the connecting sleeve 2, and two connecting parts are provided on the side of the sealing cover 301 close to the connecting sleeve 2, and the two connecting parts are respectively clamped on both sides of the connecting sleeve 2; the sealing assembly 3 set in this application and the sealing cover 301 in the sealing assembly 3 can protect the connecting sleeve 2 and reduce the mechanical damage of the connecting sleeve 2 during storage and transportation.

[0038] Further, such as Figure 4 As shown, a chamber 302 is provided in the middle of the sealing cover 301 , and the chamber 302 is used to accommodate the optical cable connector body 1 .

[0039] Further, such as Figure 5 As shown, the connecting part includes a connecting plate 304 located on the side of the sealing cover 301 close to the connecting sleeve 2, a connecting port 306 is opened on one side of the connecting plate 304, a connecting shaft 307 is fixedly installed in the connecting port 306, and a connecting seat 303 is sleeved on the outer surface of the connecting shaft 307, and one side of the connecting seat 303 is fixedly connected to the sealing cover 301. Through the mutual cooperation of the connecting seat 303, the connecting shaft 307 and the connecting port 306, the connecting plate 304 and the connecting seat 303 can be connected together, thereby connecting the connecting plate 304 and the sealing cover 301 together, and the connecting plate 304 can be rotated.

[0040] Further, such as Figure 5 As shown, a groove 308 is provided at the end of the connecting seat 303, and a coil spring 309 is provided on the outer surface of the connecting shaft 307 and is located inside the connecting shaft 307. The two ends of the coil spring 309 are fixedly connected to the connecting shaft 307 and the groove 308 respectively. The force of the coil spring 309 gives a clamping force to the connecting plate 304, so that the connecting plate 304 can be clamped on the side of the connecting sleeve 2.

[0041] In Example 2, the sealing mechanism provided in Example 1 is further optimized. Specifically, a limiting member is provided between the connecting plate 304 and the connecting sleeve 2 , and the limiting member is used to limit the position of the connecting plate 304 .

[0042] Further, such as Figures 1-4As shown, the limiting member includes a slot 7 opened on the side of the connecting plate 304 close to the connecting sleeve 2, and a card block 4 is inserted into the slot 7. The card block 4 is fixedly installed on the side of the connecting sleeve 2. The mutual cooperation between the card block 4 and the slot 7 can ensure the firmness of the connection between the connecting plate 304 and the connecting sleeve 2.

[0043] Further, such as Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, a sealing ring 201 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting sleeve 2 close to the sealing cover 301. The sealing ring 201 contacts one side of the sealing cover 301. The setting of the sealing ring 201 can improve the sealing performance of the connection between the sealing cover 301 and the connecting sleeve 2.

[0044] Furthermore, an auxiliary part is provided between the connecting sleeve 2 and the sealing cover 301 , and the auxiliary part is used for assisting in limiting the sealing cover 301 .

[0045] Further, such as Figure 2 As shown, the auxiliary part includes a limit seat 5 fixedly installed on the bottom of the connecting sleeve 2, and a socket is provided on the limit seat 5. A splint 6 is inserted into the inner wall of the socket, and one end of the splint 6 is fixedly connected to the sealing cover 301. The connection between the splint 6 and the socket on the limit seat 5 can further limit the connection between the connecting sleeve 2 and the sealing cover 301, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the connecting sleeve 2 and the sealing cover 301.

[0046] Example 3, as Figure 1 As shown, an optical cable connector uses a sealing mechanism, including an optical cable connector body 1, a connecting sleeve 2 fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the optical cable connector body 1, one end of the optical cable connector body 1 is plugged into the inner wall of the chamber 302, and the top of the connecting plate 304 is higher than the top of the connecting sleeve 2 and the sealing cover 301.

[0047] The use process of the sealing mechanism and optical cable connector provided by the utility model is as follows:

[0048] Reference Figure 1 , bend the connecting plate 304 in the direction away from the connecting sleeve 2 so that the card slot 7 is separated from the card block 4, pull the sealing cover 301 so that the sealing cover 301 is away from the connecting sleeve 2, and the clamping plate 6 is separated from the socket. At this time, the two connecting plates 304 rotate toward the cavity 302 and block the cavity 302. After rotating the sealing cover 301, the clamping plate 6 is reinserted into the socket, that is, Figure 6 As shown, the optical cable connector body 1 is then connected to the corresponding interface. At this time, the limiting seat 5 and the clamping plate 6 cooperate with each other to limit the sealing component 3 to reduce the loss of the sealing component 3, thereby facilitating the subsequent use of the sealing component 3;

[0049] When the sealing assembly 3 is needed to protect the optical cable connector body 1 again, the optical cable connector body 1 is separated from the corresponding interface, the sealing cover 301 is pulled to separate the clamping plate 6 from the socket, the connecting plate 304 is rotated to open the connecting plate 304, the optical cable connector body 1 is plugged into the chamber 302, the clamping plate 6 is plugged into the socket, and then the connecting plate 304 is loosened to plug the card block 4 into the card slot 7.
