[0002] In the field of fiber optic communication and testing technology, fiber optic quick-test connectors are key components connecting fiber optic cables to testing equipment (such as infrared meters), and their performance directly affects testing efficiency and accuracy. However, existing fiber optic quick-test connectors have many problems in practical use: First, when fixing fiber optic cables, the lack of a reasonable transmission and engagement structure often makes it difficult to achieve stable fixation of the fiber optic cable, which is prone to slippage due to external forces, thus affecting the reliability of the test data; Second, the assembly and disassembly process of the connector is complex, and the connection method between components is not convenient enough, resulting in low assembly efficiency and making it difficult to quickly replace damaged or missing parts; When it is necessary to remove the fiber optic cable, the limitation of the fixing structure makes the operation very difficult and easily causes damage to the fiber optic cable or connector components, making the connector unusable and increasing the cost of use; Therefore, there is an urgent need for a fiber optic quick-test connector that can solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a fiber optic quick-test connector for use with a red light meter.

[0018] 2. By cooperating with the fixing mechanism and the connecting block, the connection stability of the fiber optic quick test connector is improved, thereby enabling the fiber optic quick test connector to be stably assembled and easily disassembled.

[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 of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0027] Example: See Figure 1-5 This utility model discloses a fiber optic quick-test connector for use with an infrared light meter, comprising a rectangular abutment sleeve 2, a rectangular abutment connecting block 1 on one side of the abutment sleeve 2, and the edges of both the abutment sleeve 2 and the abutment connecting block 1 being arc-shaped to avoid hand discomfort during connection; four fixing buckles 6 are symmetrically protruding from the side end of the abutment connecting block 1, and the abutment sleeve 2 is provided with a connecting buckle groove 7 for engaging the fixing buckles 6. The fixing buckles 6 and the connecting buckle groove 7 enable faster assembly of the device and improve assembly efficiency. A tail sleeve 4 is fixedly connected to the other side of the abutment sleeve 2. The middle of the abutment connecting block 1, the abutment sleeve 2, and the tail sleeve 4 are all provided with a wire hole 5 for fiber optic cable insertion. The assembly of the abutment connecting block 1, the abutment sleeve 2, and the tail sleeve 4 enables better replacement of damaged or missing parts and improves the stability of the fiber optic quick-test connector after connection. The abutment connecting block 1 is a conventional infrared light meter connector.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 A fixing mechanism 3 is provided between the connecting block 1 and the connecting sleeve block 2. The fixing mechanism 3 consists of a sliding block 8 and four arc-shaped pressing blocks 9. The sliding block 8 is movably fitted into the sliding cavity of the connecting sleeve block 2. Four rectangular sliding seats 13 are symmetrically and obliquely protruded on the sliding block 8. Since each pressing block 9 is provided with a sliding groove 14 for engaging and locking the sliding seat 13, the cross-section of the sliding seat 13 is T-shaped, and the sliding groove 14 is T-shaped. Thus, through the setting of the sliding seat 13 and the sliding groove 14, the pressing block 9 can be driven to approach the optical fiber and press and fix it when the sliding block 8 is pushed.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 The tail sleeve 4 in this device is made of flexible rubber material. The tail sleeve 4 can better protect the frequently bent optical fiber. Two buckling protrusions 12 are symmetrically protruding on both sides of the sliding block 8. The abutting sleeve 2 has a fixing groove 10 for buckling the buckling protrusions 12. The buckling protrusions 12 and the fixing groove 10 can better fix the sliding block 8. The buckling protrusions 12 can be released from the fixing groove 10 by pressing down, so that the device can be used repeatedly. A layer of anti-slip pads 11 is provided on the clamping surface of the pressing block 9. There are multiple limit strips protruding at equal intervals on the inner wall of the anti-slip pads 11. The anti-slip pads 11 can better fix and press the optical fiber, preventing the optical fiber from slipping under force and affecting the use of the connector device. The fixing groove 10 and the buckling protrusions 12 are conventional buckling and fixing structures.

[0030] Working principle: In use of this utility model, firstly, the clamping block 9 is slidably installed on the sliding seat 13 of the sliding block 8 through the sliding groove 14 on it. Then, the fixing mechanism 3, composed of the sliding block 8 and four arc-shaped clamping blocks 9, is sleeved in the sliding cavity of the abutting sleeve 2. Subsequently, the fixing buckle 6 on the side of the abutting connecting block 1 is engaged with the connecting buckle groove 7 on the abutting sleeve 2 to complete the assembly and splicing of the abutting connecting block 1 and the abutting sleeve 2, thereby defining the position of the fixing mechanism 3. Then, the optical fiber is inserted into the device through the wire hole 5 in the middle of the abutting connecting block 1, the abutting sleeve 2, and the tail sleeve 4, so that one end of the optical fiber is connected to the red light meter by the abutting connecting block 1 (conventional red light meter connector). Then, the sliding block 8 is pushed so that it is in the sliding cavity of the abutting sleeve 2. During the inner sliding motion, the symmetrically inclined sliding seat 13 on the sliding block 8 will drive the clamping block 9 to slide on the sliding seat 13 through the sliding groove 14. Since the cross-section of the sliding seat 13 is T-shaped and the sliding groove 14 is a T-shaped opening, the clamping block 9, which is installed with an inclined sliding motion, will gradually tighten as the sliding block 8 is pushed to get closer to the optical fiber. When the sliding block 8 slides to the appropriate position, the buckling protrusions 12 on both sides will be inserted into the fixing groove 10 on the abutment sleeve 2 to complete the limiting and fixing of the sliding block 8. At the same time, the anti-slip pad 11 on the clamping surface of the clamping block 9 has equidistant protruding limiting strips on its inner wall, which can tightly fit the optical fiber and achieve stable clamping of the optical fiber to prevent it from slipping under force. At this point, the device completes the fixed connection of the optical fiber and the use process ends.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
