Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fine-tuning structure technology, and more specifically, to a fine-tuning structure for an optical fiber coupler. Background Technology

[0002] An optical fiber coupler, more commonly known as an optical fiber splitter, optical fiber combiner, or optical fiber distributor, is a passive optical device that distributes optical signals between two or more optical fibers. The working principle of an optical fiber coupler is based on the coupling effect of optical waveguides. In a coupler, two or more optical waveguides are so close that light waves can interfere and couple between them. By precisely controlling parameters such as the waveguide spacing, length, and refractive index, precise distribution of optical signals can be achieved.

[0003] Existing fiber optic couplers typically use multiple optical fibers to be fixed together with cable ties. However, this method lacks proper securing mechanisms. Furthermore, the fixed fibers are prone to damage during fixing and adjustment, making the coupler difficult to adjust and unsuitable for long-term use. Utility Model Content

The limiting component is located on the top surface of the placement base 4 for fixing and positioning the optical fiber coupler body 8.

[0025] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, a placement seat 4 is set by a bottom fixing seat 1. The fine-tuning protrusion 3 is rotated by manually rotating the bottom rotating shaft 2. The relative height of the placement seat 4 is adjusted and fixed by adjusting the external shape of the fine-tuning protrusion 3. The placement seat 4 is used to set the fiber optic coupler body 8. The placement of the fiber optic coupler body 8 is positioned by the side limiting frame 5 and the side limiting frame 6. Then, the fiber optic coupler body 8 is fixed by the top fixing frame 9 and the top limiting plate 12. Then, the top fixing frame 9 is fixed by the long fixing bolt 10, which improves the installation and fixing effect of the fiber optic coupler body 8. The relative height of the fiber optic coupler body 8 can be fine-tuned by rotating the bottom rotating shaft 2. Thus, after the fiber optic is fixed, the fiber optic coupler body 8 can be fine-tuned so that it can be used to adapt to the fixed fiber optic.

[0026] Specifically, each of the multiple mounting holes is provided with a long fixing bolt 10, and the multiple long fixing bolts 10 are connected to the top surface of the placement seat 4 by thread rotation.

[0031] In this embodiment, the fiber optic coupler body 8 is fixed by the cooperation of the top limiting plate 12 and the side limiting frame 6.

[0033] In this embodiment, a fixing bolt is installed on the extended fixing bracket 11, so that the placement seat 4 is fixed in the predetermined position after fine adjustment is completed.

[0034] Specifically, the bottom surface of the bottom fixing base 1 is provided with an adhesive filling groove.

[0035] In this embodiment, the bottom fixing seat 1 is fixed to the pre-installation position by using a glue-filling groove to apply fixing glue.

[0036] Working principle: The placement seat 4 is set by the bottom fixing seat 1. The micro-adjustment protrusion 3 is rotated by manually rotating the bottom rotating shaft 2. The relative height of the placement seat 4 is adjusted and fixed by adjusting the external shape of the micro-adjustment protrusion 3. The placement seat 4 is used to set the fiber optic coupler body 8. The placement of the fiber optic coupler body 8 is positioned by the side limiting frame 5 and the side limiting frame 6. Then, the fiber optic coupler body 8 is fixed by the top fixing frame 9 and the top limiting plate 12. Then, the top fixing frame 9 is fixed by the long fixing bolt 10, which improves the installation and fixing effect of the fiber optic coupler body 8. The relative height of the fiber optic coupler body 8 can be finely adjusted by rotating the bottom rotating shaft 2. Thus, after the fiber is fixed, the fiber optic coupler body 8 can be finely adjusted to adapt to the use of the fixed fiber.
