Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical module component technology, and in particular to a pluggable high-speed optical module ruggedization device. Background Technology

[0002] Pluggable high-speed optical module ruggedization equipment is mainly used in the field of network communication to ensure the stable operation of optical modules in equipment such as switches. With the development of information technology, high-speed optical modules are increasingly widely used in data centers and communication networks. These modules are responsible for high-speed conversion between optical signals and electrical signals, and their stability directly affects the performance of communication systems. In complex network environments, optical modules need to be frequently plugged and unplugged for maintenance, upgrades, or replacements. Therefore, a ruggedization device that can ensure stable connection of optical modules during plugging and unplugging is particularly important.

[0003] Existing technologies typically use simple screw fixing, where tightening the screws presses the clamp against the optical module, thus fixing the optical module in the switch's slot. This method can meet the fixing requirements of optical modules to a certain extent.

[0004] While screw fixing plays a role in strengthening optical modules, it exposes a key problem in practical applications: it is difficult to effectively cope with the frequent plugging and unplugging of optical modules. In modern data centers and communication networks, optical modules need to be frequently plugged and unplugged for maintenance, upgrades, or troubleshooting. However, screw fixing requires the use of tools to loosen and tighten the screws each time they are plugged or unplugged. This not only increases the complexity and time cost of operation, but also easily leads to unstable connection between the optical module and the switch due to improper operation. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a pluggable high-speed optical module reinforcement device, which aims to improve the problem of loose connection caused by screw fixing.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a pluggable high-speed optical module ruggedization device, including a switch, an upper clamping plate rotatably connected to the upper surface of the switch, a lower clamping plate rotatably connected to the lower surface of the switch, a ruggedization component inside the upper clamping plate, and a locking component inside the lower clamping plate;

[0007] The reinforcement component includes a movable block, the outer wall of which is slidably connected to the inner wall of the upper clamping plate. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the movable block. The connecting rod is located inside the switch. A limit ring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting rod. The outer wall of the limit ring is slidably connected to the inner wall of the switch. The lower clamping plate is provided with symmetrical and identical reinforcement components.

[0008] Furthermore, the locking assembly includes a hook, a groove, and a locking block. The groove is formed on the upper surface of the lower clamping plate, the hook is disposed inside the groove, and the locking block is disposed inside the groove.

[0009] Furthermore, one end of the hook is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the upper clamping plate, and a sliding button is slidably connected to the outer wall of the lower clamping plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the outer wall of the card block is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the slide button, and a second spring is provided inside the groove.

[0011] Furthermore, one end of the second spring is fixedly connected to one end of the locking block, and the other end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower clamping plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the outer wall of the switch is provided with multiple dust covers, and the outer wall of the connecting rod is fitted with a spring.

[0013] Furthermore, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the upper clamping plate, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the moving block.

[0014] Furthermore, the switch is equipped with an optical-to-electrical module, and a pull ring is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the optical-to-electrical module.

[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] In this invention, the reinforcement component, through the cooperation of the moving block and the connecting rod, enables the upper and lower clamping plates to fit tightly against the switch, thereby reinforcing the optical module. Simply rotate the upper and lower clamping plates to the upper and lower surfaces of the optical module respectively, and the moving block will automatically adjust the clamping range of the optical module. This design not only improves the installation stability of the optical module, but also facilitates quick assembly and disassembly.

[0017] In this invention, when the locking assembly is locked, the hook will automatically engage with the block in the groove, while the spring provides the elastic force for the block to return to its original position, ensuring the reliability of the lock. When unlocking, simply slide the slider to move the block and disengage the hook from the block, which will quickly unlock the device. This design simplifies the operation steps and improves the ease of use of the equipment. Attached Figure Description

[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] Reference Figures 1-6This utility model provides an embodiment of a pluggable high-speed optical module ruggedization device, including a switch 1. An upper clamping plate 5 is rotatably connected to the upper surface of the switch 1, and a lower clamping plate 4 is rotatably connected to the lower surface of the switch 1. A ruggedization component is installed inside the upper clamping plate 5, and a locking component is installed inside the lower clamping plate 4 to ensure stable installation of the optical module in the switch 1 and prevent loosening due to vibration or external force. The ruggedization component includes a movable block 6, the outer wall of which is slidably connected to the inner wall of the upper clamping plate 5. A connecting rod 7 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the movable block 6. The connecting rod 7 is located inside the switch 1, and a limit switch is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting rod 7. Ring 8, the outer wall of the limiting ring 8 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the switch 1. The lower clamping plate 4 is equipped with symmetrical and identical reinforcing components. The upper clamping plate 5 and the lower clamping plate 4 can be flexibly adjusted to fit tightly against the surface of the switch 1, thereby applying uniform pressure to the optical module and ensuring its stability. The locking components include a hook 11, a groove 12, and a locking block 14. The groove 12 is formed on the upper surface of the lower clamping plate 4. The hook 11 is set inside the groove 12, and the locking block 14 is set inside the groove 12. The hook 11 and the locking block 14 cooperate to realize the quick locking and unlocking of the upper clamping plate 5 and the lower clamping plate 4, improving the convenience of operation. One end of the hook 11 is fixed. A sliding button 13 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the lower clamping plate 4, and the hook 11 and the block 14 can be easily controlled to engage and disengage by sliding the sliding button 13, achieving quick locking and unlocking. The outer wall of the block 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the sliding button 13. A second spring 15 is set inside the groove 12. One end of the second spring 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the block 14, and the other end of the second spring 15 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower clamping plate 4. The elastic connection method ensures a tight engagement between the hook 11 and the block 14, providing reliable locking force and preventing accidental unlocking. The outer wall of the switch 1 is provided with multiple dust covers 2. To effectively prevent dust from entering the optical module interface and extend the service life of the optical module, a spring 9 is fitted on the outer wall of the connecting rod 7. One end of the spring 9 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the upper clamping plate 5, and the other end of the spring 9 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the moving block 6. The elasticity of the spring 9 helps the moving block 6 to slide flexibly within the upper clamping plate 5, while providing appropriate clamping force to enhance the stability of the optical module. The switch 1 is equipped with an optical-to-electrical module 3, which is responsible for converting optical signals into electrical signals and is the core component of the optical module. The outer wall of the optical-to-electrical module 3 is rotatably connected with a pull ring 10, which facilitates quick insertion and removal by operators and improves the efficiency of maintenance and replacement.

[0028] Working Principle: When this pluggable high-speed optical module hardening device is needed, first rotate the upper clamping plate 5 and lower clamping plate 4 connected to the switch 1 to the top and bottom of the optical module, respectively. At this time, the hardening components start to work. The moving block 6 slides in the upper clamping plate 5, and the connecting rod 7 moves in the switch 1 accordingly. The limiting ring 8 slides in the switch 1, limiting the movement range of the connecting rod 7, thereby ensuring that the upper clamping plate 5 and lower clamping plate 4 are tightly attached to the switch 1 to harden the optical module. The hardening components in the lower clamping plate 4 are symmetrical and identical, working together with the upper clamping plate 5 to further enhance the stability of the optical module. At the same time, the locking components also perform their function. One end of the hook 11 is fixed to the upper clamping plate 5, and the other end is located inside the groove 12 on the lower clamping plate 4. When the upper clamping plate 5 and lower clamping plate 4 are closed, the hook 11 automatically engages with the locking block 14 in the groove 12. To achieve locking, one end of spring 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the locking block 14, and the other end is fixedly connected to the lower clamping plate 4, providing elastic force for the locking block 14 to reset and ensuring the reliability of locking. To unlock, simply slide the slider 13, which moves the locking block 14, causing the hook 11 to disengage from the locking block 14, thus quickly unlocking. The switch 1 is equipped with multiple dust covers 2, which can effectively prevent dust from entering the optical module interface and extend the service life of the optical module. The connecting rod 7 is fitted with spring 9, one end of which is fixedly connected to the upper clamping plate 5, and the other end is fixedly connected to the moving block 6, providing elastic support for the movement of the moving block 6 and enhancing the reinforcement effect. The optical-to-electrical module 3 inside the switch 1 is responsible for converting optical signals into electrical signals. The pull ring 10 rotatably connected to its outer wall makes it easy for operators to quickly insert and remove the optical-to-electrical module 3, improving maintenance efficiency.
