An easy-to-unlock fiber optic connector

Abstract

This utility model discloses an easy-to-unlock fiber optic connector, relating to the field of fiber optic connector technology. The easy-to-unlock fiber optic connector includes a connector body, a connector semi-finished product, a tail sleeve, a locking mechanism, and a reset elastic element. The connector semi-finished product is located at one end of the connector body, and the tail sleeve is slidably fitted onto the end of the connector body furthest from the connector semi-finished product. The locking mechanism is located on the connector body and is drively connected to the tail sleeve. The reset elastic element connects the connector body and the tail sleeve. When the tail sleeve slides away from the connector semi-finished product, it causes the locking mechanism to disengage from the fiber optic adapter. Simultaneously, the relative sliding between the tail sleeve and the connector body allows the reset elastic element to accumulate elastic potential energy. When the easy-to-unlock fiber optic connector disengages from the fiber optic adapter, the reset elastic element releases this elastic potential energy, causing the tail sleeve to gradually approach the connector semi-finished product along the opposite sliding path to achieve reset. Therefore, the ease of operation of the fiber optic connector is improved.
