[0011] Anti-skid principle: the tail pipe is designed in the shape of a trumpet, which enlarges the holding area of the operator's hand, and the edge shape of the trumpet can better fit the hand, increasing the stability of contact, so that the operator is not easy to slip off when holding the tail pipe. The plurality of anti-skid grooves on the surface of the connector pipe body change the roughness of the pipe body surface, when the operator's hand contacts the pipe body, the anti-skid grooves increase the friction between them, so that the operator can exert force more stably when performing plug-in operation, reducing the operation errors caused by hand sliding, realizing quick and stable plug-in.
[0012] The utility model discloses beneficial effect is: convenient plug-in after adding upper and lower two components on MPO shell and through buckle buckle, cooperate tail pipe front recess and convex point and tail end horn mouth design, so that operating personnel can easily hold tail pipe and push and pull, drive component and shell body movement, realize MPO connector in the non-contact situation with flange convenient plug-in, greatly improve operating efficiency. Upper fixed shell, lower fixed shell are buckled in the buckle slot of connector, and fixed peg inserts fixed slot, cooperate installation groove fixed connector pipe body, utilize concave-convex structure further fixed installation position simultaneously, ensure that the whole connector each component installation is stable, and not easy to loosen in the use process. Tail pipe is designed into horn mouth shape, and convenient to hold with hand and not easy to slip off, and the surface of connector pipe body is equipped with a plurality of antiskid grooves, increase the friction of hand and connector pipe body, so that the plug-in operation can be fast and stable, reduce the operation mistake.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] Referring to Figures 1-4 The technical scheme adopted in the specific embodiment is as follows:
[0020] Convenient plug-in embodiment
[0021] Component preparation: Prepare the upper and lower fixing shells with buckles, and buckle them together. Make sure that the hook positions on the upper and lower components are accurate and can smoothly hook the hollow slot of the MPO shell body.
[0022] Tail pipe connection: The groove and protrusion at the front end of the tail pipe precisely connect with the buckled upper and lower components, so that the tail pipe is tightly connected with the upper and lower components.
[0023] Operation process: In a certain data center wiring scene, technicians need to connect the MPO connector with the flange. At this time, the technician holds the tail pipe and pushes it forward. The pushing force of the tail pipe is transmitted to the upper and lower components through the groove and protrusion, and the hooks on the upper and lower components drive the MPO shell body to move forward until the connector head of the MPO connector is accurately inserted into the flange interface. When it needs to be pulled out, the technician pulls the tail pipe backward, and the same transmission mechanism makes the MPO connector smoothly pulled out from the flange, without the need to directly touch the connector body.
[0024] Stable installation embodiment
[0025] Pre-installation preparation: Check whether the buckle slot of the connector head and the buckles of the upper and lower fixing shells are damaged or deformed. At the same time, confirm that the fixing peg at the front end of the connector tube and the fixing slots on the upper and lower fixing shells are not blocked by foreign matter.
[0026] Preliminary installation: Align the buckles of the upper and lower fixing shells with the buckle slot on the connector head, press down, and embed the buckle into the buckle slot. At this time, the upper and lower fixing shells are preliminarily fixed on the connector head.
[0027] Strengthening fixation: Insert the fixing peg at the front end of the connector tube into the corresponding fixing slots of the upper and lower fixing shells to further stabilize the connection. In a certain communication base station equipment installation, after completing the above steps, the installer also checks the upper shell front groove, upper shell rear groove, and lower shell front boss, lower shell rear boss to ensure that they fit each other. Through this multi-dimensional fixation method, even if the MPO connector components are subjected to a certain degree of vibration and external pulling during subsequent operation of the equipment, they do not loosen.
[0028] Anti-slip embodiment
[0029] Product design confirmation: In the production link, ensure that the trumpet mouth shape of the tail pipe meets the design standard, the edge is smooth and flawless, and can well fit the hand. At the same time, check whether the depth and spacing of the anti-slip grooves on the surface of the connector tube are uniform.
[0030] Actual operation scene: in the outdoor optical fiber laying work, the environment is more complex, the hands of the operator may have sweat or dust. When the operator needs to plug and pull the MPO connector, they hold the horn mouth part of the tail pipe, because the horn mouth is enlarged and the holding area is well fitted with the hand, even if the hand has sweat, it can be held stably. In the process of plugging and pulling, the anti-skid groove on the surface of the connector pipe body increases the friction between the hand and the pipe body, the operator can stably apply force, successfully completes multiple fast and stable plugging and pulling operations, greatly improves the work efficiency, and reduces the operation failure caused by hand sliding.
[0031] The above is only used to illustrate the technical scheme of the utility model and is not limited, other modifications or equivalent replacements of the technical scheme of the utility model made by the ordinary skilled in the art should be covered in the claim range of the utility model, as long as it does not deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical scheme of the utility model.
