Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of optical modules, in particular to a quick plug-and-pull connection structure of an optical module. Background Art

[0002] AOC is the abbreviation of active optical cable, which consists of two optical transceivers and multimode optical fiber. It is a transmission device used for high-speed and high-reliability interconnection between data centers, high-performance computers, large-capacity storage devices and other equipment.

[0003] The current AOC optoelectronic conversion module and optical cable are typically fixedly connected, which brings many problems: 1. The fiber length cannot be changed, which limits its flexibility; 2. The transceiver and optical cable are connected integrally, which can easily damage the optical fiber during manufacturing and transportation; 3. If a problem occurs with the optoelectronic module during use, the entire optical cable must be replaced, which increases maintenance costs and prolongs maintenance cycles.

[0004] Therefore, the present application provides an optical module connection structure that can be quickly plugged and unplugged. Utility Model Content

[0007] The optical port adapter body has a plug-in port with two elastic claws located opposite to each other, and a movable port at the side wall of the plug-in port corresponding to the claws;

[0008] The optical fiber connector has a slot on its outer wall corresponding to the two claws;

[0009] A locking sleeve, movably sleeved on the outer wall of the optical fiber connector;

[0010] The optical fiber connector is inserted into the plug-in port so that the claw enters the card slot and the locking sleeve is sleeved on the periphery of the claw to limit the movement of the claw in the card slot.

[0011] Preferably, the outer wall of the optical fiber connector is provided with a slide groove, the inner wall of the locking sleeve is provided with a limit plate that slides into the slide groove, and the limit plate is connected to the inner wall of the slide groove via a spring.

[0012] Preferably, the outer wall of the optical fiber connector has an annular extension body, and a limiting groove is formed between the extension body and the locking sleeve. An elastic stopping ring is sleeved on the optical cable of the optical fiber connector, and the stopping ring is sleeved in the limiting groove to limit the unlocking of the locking sleeve.

[0013] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are:

[0014] The locking sleeve provided in the present application can lock the claw on the optical port adapter body into the card slot of the optical fiber connector, so that the optical port adapter body and the optical fiber connector are locked;

[0015] Since the locking sleeve is elastically connected to the optical fiber connector via a spring, in order to prevent the locking sleeve from accidentally moving, a stop ring is provided that can extend into the limiting groove to prevent the locking sleeve from leaving the range of the claws.

[0023] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] like Figure 1-6 In the first embodiment, a quick plug-in connection structure of an optical module includes:

[0025] The optical port adapter body 10 has an inserting port 11, wherein the inserting port 11 has two elastic claws 20 positioned opposite to each other, and a movable opening 21 is formed on the side wall of the inserting port 11 at the position corresponding to the claws 20;

[0026] The optical fiber connector 30 has a slot 32 on its outer wall corresponding to the two claws 20;

[0027] The locking sleeve 40 is movably mounted on the outer wall of the optical fiber connector 30;

[0028] The optical fiber connector 30 is inserted into the plug-in port 11 , so that the claw 20 enters the slot 32 , and the locking sleeve 40 is sleeved on the periphery of the claw 20 to restrict the movement of the claw 20 in the slot 32 .

[0029] This embodiment is implemented as follows:

[0030] When the present application is in use, the optical fiber connector 30 is inserted into the plug-in port 11 of the optical port adapter body 10. During this process, the claw 20 will be locked in the card slot 32, and the movable port 21 can provide a movable space for the claw 20 to be locked in. Then move the locking sleeve 40 to the position of the claw 20. At this time, the claw 20 is restricted from moving, so that the optical fiber connector 30 is fixed to the optical port adapter body 10.

[0031] The advantage of the present application over the prior art is that it can achieve quick plugging and unplugging of the optical fiber connector 30 and the optical port adapter body 10 .

[0032] See also Figure 2 The outer wall of the optical fiber connector 30 is provided with a slide groove 43, and the inner wall of the locking sleeve 40 has a limit plate 41 that slides into the slide groove 43. The limit plate 41 is connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 43 by a spring 42.

[0033] When the lock sleeve 40 moves, it drives the limit plate 41 to move, causing the limit plate 41 to compress the spring 42, thereby moving the lock sleeve 40 away from the position of the slot 32. When the lock sleeve 40 is released, the spring 42 can push the lock sleeve 40 to move, causing the lock sleeve 40 to return to its original position.

[0034] See also Figure 1 、 2 , 3, 4, 5, 6, the outer wall of the optical fiber connector 30 has an annular extension body 51, and a limiting groove is formed between the extension body 51 and the locking sleeve 40. An elastic stopping ring 50 is sleeved on the optical cable 31 of the optical fiber connector 30, and the stopping ring 50 is sleeved in the limiting groove to limit the unlocking of the locking sleeve 40.

[0035] The stop ring 50 can be stretched and sleeved into the limiting groove formed by the locking sleeve 40 and the extension body, thereby limiting the movement of the locking sleeve 40 and preventing the locking sleeve 40 from being unlocked, thereby avoiding accidental contact.

[0036] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the creative concept of the present invention, which all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
