Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fiber optic transceiver technology, specifically to a fiber optic transceiver with an interface protection structure. Background Technology
[0002] A fiber optic transceiver is an Ethernet transmission media conversion unit that converts short-distance twisted-pair electrical signals to long-distance optical signals. It is also known as an optoelectronic converter in many places. These products are generally used in real-world network environments where Ethernet cables cannot cover the area and fiber optic cables must be used to extend the transmission distance. They are typically positioned in the access layer of broadband metropolitan area networks (MANs), such as for high-definition video image transmission in security monitoring projects. They also play a significant role in connecting the last mile of fiber optic cable to MANs and outer networks.
[0003] For example, patent CN214750953U discloses a fiber optic transceiver with convenient wiring, including a fiber optic transceiver body, an interface on the surface of the fiber optic transceiver body, a protective frame on the surface of the fiber optic transceiver body, a cable tray groove on the bottom surface of the fiber optic transceiver body, a flexible protective plate on the surface of the cable tray groove, a support plate on the surface of the fiber optic transceiver body, and a clamping screw screwed onto the surface of the support plate.
[0004] With the above settings, the fiber optic transceiver proposed by the prior art has a cable tray groove on the bottom surface for easy wiring. The cable tray groove, together with a flexible protective plate, surrounds and organizes the cable body to prevent adjacent cables from getting tangled. In addition, a protective frame is added to the surface of the fiber optic transceiver to prevent the connector from being bent at the interface when an object falls from above. Two support plates are added between the interface and the cable tray groove to surround the cable body, and clamping screws are added to the surface of the support plates to drive the clamping plates to clamp the cable body. This prevents the connector and interface from loosening due to pulling the cable body from below.
[0005] However, existing fiber optic transceivers have the following drawbacks during operation:
[0006] The aforementioned fiber optic transceiver uses a clamping plate to fix the connecting cable by rotating the clamping screws at both ends during use. Although this method can also prevent the connecting cable from falling off, it is relatively cumbersome to use, requiring the rotation of the clamping screws at both ends. Moreover, in the above device, when no connecting cable is inserted at the interface, the interface will be exposed to the outside, which will cause dust in the air to enter the interface and cause blockage. Utility Model Content
[0007] The present invention aims to provide a fiber optic transceiver with an interface protection structure, which is mainly used to solve the technical problems of slow connection cable fixing and lack of interface protection in the prior art.
[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0009] A fiber optic transceiver with an interface protection structure includes a fiber optic transceiver body and an interface. A mounting frame is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fiber optic transceiver body at the interface. A protective plate is slidably connected to the lower side wall of the mounting frame. A through hole is opened in the side wall of the protective plate. A connecting block is fixedly connected to the lower outer wall of the protective plate. Rectangular grooves are symmetrically opened in the inner side wall of the mounting frame. A sliding component is provided in the inner side wall of the rectangular groove. Limiting components are slidably connected to both end side walls of the mounting frame. A mounting base is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting frame. A locking component is slidably connected to the inner side wall of the mounting base.
[0010] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model:
[0011] 1. Working Principle: When using this device, if it is necessary to connect the connecting wire to the interface, first pull the locking component upward, so that the locking component moves upward along the inner wall of the mounting base. Then, when it contacts the limiting component to restrict the sliding component, the sliding component will drive the protective plate to slide downward along the inner wall of the rectangular slide groove, thereby exposing the interface and realizing the insertion of the connecting wire to the interface. Then, push the connecting block upward, so that the protective plate drives the sliding component to slide upward along the inner wall of the rectangular slide groove, allowing the connecting wire to pass through the through hole. Then, the limiting component is used to limit the sliding component. Finally, the locking component is used to fix the connecting wire.
[0012] 2. Beneficial effects:
[0013] Existing technologies utilize cable trays on the bottom of fiber optic transceivers, which, along with flexible protective plates, organize and protect the cables to prevent tangling. A protective frame is also added to the surface of the transceiver to prevent falling objects from bending the connectors at the interface. However, existing technologies suffer from slow cable securing and lack interface protection. This solution addresses these issues by using limiting components to restrict the protective plate, thus protecting the interface from dust and blockage. Furthermore, a locking component, working in conjunction with the protective plate, secures the cable, preventing it from detaching from the interface.
[0014] Preferably, the sliding assembly includes a slider slidably connected to the inner wall of the rectangular slide groove. The end of the slider is fixedly connected to the side wall of the protective plate. The side wall of the slider has a limiting hole. When it is necessary to insert the connecting wire into the interface, the limiting assembly is adjusted so that the limiting assembly is released from the restriction of the slider. At this time, the protective plate is not restricted, and the pull block can be pulled down so that the protective plate drives the slider to slide down along the inner wall of the rectangular slide groove, thereby exposing the interface and facilitating the insertion of the connecting wire into the interface.
[0015] Preferably, the limiting component includes a limiting rod that passes through and is slidably connected to the side wall of the mounting frame, and the end of the limiting rod is adapted to the limiting hole. A first spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the limiting rod. One end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the end of the limiting rod, and the other end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the side wall of the mounting frame. When it is necessary to pull the protective plate downward, the limiting rod is first pulled outward, so that the limiting rod slides outward along the outer wall of the mounting frame. During this process, the first spring is stretched until the limiting rod disengages from the limiting hole. Then, the protective plate will move downward under the action of gravity, thereby achieving the purpose of exposing the interface.
[0016] Preferably, the end of the limiting rod near the slider is designed with an inclined structure. When the connecting wire is inserted into the interface, pushing the connecting block upward causes the protective plate to slide the slider upward along the inner wall of the rectangular groove. During the upward sliding of the slider, it comes into contact with the inclined structure at the end of the limiting rod. As the slider moves upward, the limiting rod moves outward along the side wall of the mounting frame under the action of the inclined structure at the end of the limiting rod. During this process, the first spring is stretched. When the limiting hole coincides with the end of the limiting rod, the limiting rod is reset under the action of the stretched first spring, so that the limiting rod is re-inserted into the interior of the limiting hole, thus fixing the protective plate. Finally, the locking assembly is used to fix the connecting wire to the bottom of the through hole, which not only prevents the connecting wire from falling off, but also prevents dust from entering the interface.
[0017] Preferably, the locking assembly includes a lifting block slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting base, and the lifting block is slidably connected to the top of the mounting frame. A second spring is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting block, and the upper end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting base. When the connecting wire needs to be plugged into the interface, the lifting block is pulled upward to move it into the interior of the mounting base. During this process, the second spring is compressed. After the connecting wire is plugged into the interface, the restriction on the lifting block is released, and the lifting block resets under the action of the compressed second spring. This, together with the protective plate, secures the connecting wire to the lower end of the through hole, preventing the connecting wire from detaching from the interface.
[0018] Preferably, the lifting block has a threaded connection to the side wall with a screw, and the mounting base has a threaded hole on the inner side wall at the upper end, and the threaded hole is compatible with the screw. The setting of the screw and the threaded hole facilitates the fixing of the lifting block and prevents the lifting block from resetting under the action of the second spring during the process of connecting the connecting wire, thus preventing the technical problem of inconvenience in connecting the connecting wire and the interface.
[0019] Preferably, the bottom of the lifting block is provided with an arc-shaped groove, and a rubber pad is fixedly connected to the bottom of the through hole. The arc-shaped groove and the rubber pad facilitate the fixing of the connecting wire, increase the friction between the lifting block and the through hole and the connecting wire, and prevent the connecting wire from falling off.

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] like Figure 1-5As shown, a fiber optic transceiver with an interface protection structure includes a fiber optic transceiver body 1 and an interface 4. A mounting frame 2 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fiber optic transceiver body 1 at the interface 4. A protective plate 3 is slidably connected through and slidably connected to the lower side wall of the mounting frame 2. A through hole 11 is provided on the side wall of the protective plate 3. A connecting block 7 is fixedly connected to the lower outer wall of the protective plate 3. Rectangular grooves 12 are symmetrically provided on the inner side wall of the mounting frame 2. A sliding assembly is provided on the inner side wall of the rectangular grooves 12. The sliding assembly includes a slider 10 slidably connected to the inner side wall of the rectangular grooves 12. The end of the slider 10 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the protective plate 3. A limiting hole 15 is provided on the side wall of the slider 10. The slider 10 and the limiting hole 15 facilitate the protection of the interface. The protective plate 3 performs a limiting function, thereby preventing dust from entering the interior of the interface 4. Limiting components are slidably connected through both end walls of the mounting frame 2. These limiting components include limiting rods 8 that are slidably connected through and to the side walls of the mounting frame 2, with the ends of the limiting rods 8 fitting into the limiting holes 15. The end of the limiting rod 8 near the slider 10 has a beveled structure. A first spring 14 is sleeved on the outer wall of the limiting rod 8, with one end fixedly connected to the end of the limiting rod 8 and the other end fixedly connected to the side wall of the mounting frame 2. When the connecting wire is inserted into the interface 4, pushing the connecting block 7 upward causes the protective plate 3 to drive the slider 10 to slide upward along the inner wall of the rectangular groove 12. During the sliding process, the slider 10 comes into contact with the inclined structure at the end of the limiting rod 8. As the slider 10 moves upward, the inclined structure at the end of the limiting rod 8 causes the limiting rod 8 to move outward along the side wall of the mounting frame 2. During this process, the first spring 14 is stretched. When the limiting hole 15 coincides with the end of the limiting rod 8, the first spring 14 stretches and the limiting rod 8 is reset, so that the limiting rod 8 is reinserted into the limiting hole 15, thus fixing the protective plate 3. The top of the mounting frame 2 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 9, and the inner side wall of the mounting base 9 is slidably connected to a locking assembly. The locking assembly includes a lifting block 13 slidably connected to the inner side wall of the mounting base 9, and the lifting block 13 penetrates and is slidably connected to the top of the mounting frame 2. A second spring 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting block 13. The upper end of the second spring 16 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting base 9. A screw 5 is threadedly connected to the side wall of the lifting block 13. A threaded hole 18 is opened on the inner wall of the upper end of the mounting base 9, and the threaded hole 18 is adapted to the screw 5. When it is necessary to connect the connecting line to the interface 4, the lifting block 13 is first pulled upward to move the lifting block 13 into the interior of the mounting base 9. During this process, the second spring 16 is compressed. When the screw 5 coincides with the threaded hole 18, the screw 5 is rotated into the interior of the threaded hole 18 to limit the lifting block 13. When the connecting line is inside the through hole 11, the screw 5 is rotated in the opposite direction to release the restriction on the lifting block 13. Then, the lifting block 13 is reset under the action of compressing the second spring 16.This, in conjunction with the protective plate 3, secures the connecting wire to the lower end of the through hole 11, preventing the connecting wire from detaching from the interface 4.
[0028] As can be seen from the above, the specific embodiments of this utility model are as follows:
[0029] When using this device, to connect the connecting wire to interface 4, first pull the lifting block 13 upwards to move it into the mounting base 9. During this process, the second spring 16 is compressed. When the screw 5 coincides with the threaded hole 18, rotate the screw 5 into the threaded hole 18 to limit the lifting block 13. Then pull the limiting rod 8 outwards to slide it along the side wall of the mounting frame 2. During this process, the first spring 14 is stretched until the limiting rod 8 disengages from the limiting hole 15. Then, the protective plate 3 will move downwards under the action of gravity, thereby exposing the interface 4 and facilitating the connection of the connecting wire to interface 4. After the connecting wire is connected to interface 4, push the connecting block 7 upwards to move the protective plate 3, causing the slider 10 to slide along the inner wall of the rectangular groove 12. As the slider 10 slides upward, it comes into contact with the inclined structure at the end of the limiting rod 8. As the slider 10 moves upward, the inclined structure at the end of the limiting rod 8 causes the limiting rod 8 to move outward along the side wall of the mounting frame 2. During this process, the first spring 14 is stretched. When the limiting hole 15 coincides with the end of the limiting rod 8, the limiting rod 8 is reset under the action of the stretched first spring 14, so that the limiting rod 8 is re-inserted into the interior of the limiting hole 15, thereby fixing the protective plate 3. At this time, the connecting wire is located inside the through hole 11. Then, the screw 5 is rotated in the opposite direction to release the restriction on the lifting block 13. The lifting block 13 is reset under the action of the compressed second spring 16, thereby cooperating with the protective plate 3 to clamp the connecting wire at the lower end of the through hole 11, preventing the connecting wire from coming off the interface 4.
