Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical modules, specifically a packaging structure for a 43G coherent optical module. Background Technology
[0002] Optical modules are one of the most important components in modern communications and also one of the most prominent issues in electromagnetic compatibility. They consist of optoelectronic devices, functional circuits, and optical interfaces. The optoelectronic devices include both transmitting and receiving parts, and their main function is to perform photoelectric conversion. That is, the transmitting end converts electrical signals into optical signals, which are then transmitted through optical fibers. The receiving end then converts the optical signals back into electrical signals. Based on the number of bits transmitted per second, optical module products cover major speeds such as low speed, 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, and 43 Gbps.
[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent publication number: CN222636339U, which proposes a packaging structure for optical modules. By setting a positioning mechanism, it solves the problem that the packaging components are prone to loosening, which in turn makes the internally packaged optical modules prone to loosening. Although the above application is relatively stable in application, the upper and lower packaging shells cannot be quickly and automatically separated when disassembling the packaging shell. Therefore, a packaging structure for a 43G coherent optical module is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the lack of automatic disassembly when internal problems occur after the optical module is packaged and fixed, this invention proposes a packaging structure for a 43G coherent optical module.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a packaging structure for a 43G coherent optical module, including an optical module body; a lower shell mechanism is installed below the optical module body, a packaging mechanism is installed inside the side of the lower shell mechanism, and an upper shell mechanism is installed above the optical module body.
[0006] The encapsulation mechanism includes a movable rod, a retaining spring is fixedly installed at the lower end of the movable rod, and U-shaped limiting blocks are fixedly installed below the left and right ends of the movable rod. A support frame is movably connected below the U-shaped limiting blocks. The retaining spring is installed at the lower end of the movable rod, so that the movable rod has the ability to bounce up and down, thereby facilitating the opening and closing of the components at the upper and lower ends of the movable rod.
[0007] Preferably, the lower shell mechanism includes a lower shell, with positioning holes on the left and right sides of the upper end of the lower shell, positioning grooves on the front and rear sides of the upper end of the lower shell, an internal groove in the middle of the front and rear sides of the upper end of the lower shell, a movable groove in the middle of the lower part of the inner end of the internal groove, a pulley fixedly installed above the inner end of the movable groove, a locking rod movably installed inside the movable groove, and a sliding groove in the middle of the upper end of the locking rod. When set, the front end of the locking rod extends out, and the middle part is connected to the lower end of the support frame using an openable hinge. This structure allows the locking rod to move with the movement of the support frame.
[0008] Preferably, the upper shell mechanism includes an upper shell, a fixing groove is formed in the middle of the upper end of the upper shell, a through hole is formed inside the side of the fixing groove, a locking block is movably installed inside the fixing groove, a pull handle is fixedly installed in the middle of the locking block, positioning rods are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the lower end of the upper shell, and connecting blocks are fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the lower end of the upper shell. The connecting blocks have locking grooves inside. The setting of the locking blocks provides a limit structure at the upper end of the movable part inside the through hole, so that when the upper shell and the lower shell are connected, the movable part can be locked, making the connection between the two stable.
[0009] Preferably, the movable rod is movably mounted in the middle of the built-in groove via a snap ring. The U-shaped limiting blocks are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the movable rod. The lower end of the support frame is movably connected to the front end of the locking rod. After the U-shaped limiting blocks and the support frame are fixedly connected, they maintain a rotatable structure. When force is applied to the movable rod, the snap ring is pressed down, and the support frame moves downward to both sides, pushing the locking rod connected at the lower end to move inside the movable groove. Once the snap ring loses pressure, it can drive the support frame to quickly rebound, and the locking rod will also automatically follow and move outward, thus enabling the encapsulation structure of the device to have an automatic rebound function.
[0010] Preferably, the lower housing is movably mounted below the optical module body, and the movable slots are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the inner end of the built-in slot. The pulleys and the slots are compatible, and the pulleys allow the lever to move back and forth smoothly inside the movable slots.
[0011] Preferably, the upper housing is movably mounted above the optical module body, the through hole and the movable rod are adapted to each other, the locking block and the fixing groove are adapted to each other, the locking block is a T-shaped structure, the T-shaped structure locking block is locked inside the fixing groove, and the two fit together and are not easy to loosen.
[0012] Preferably, the positioning rod and the positioning groove are adapted to each other, and the connecting block and the positioning groove are adapted to each other. The positioning rod and the connecting block are provided to increase the stability of the upper and lower shells after connection, and also to provide a better positioning effect.
[0013] Preferably, the slot and the rod are adapted to each other, and the through hole and the movable rod are movably connected. After the rod moves to a certain position inside the movable slot, it is inserted from inside the slot, which can fix the connecting block inside the positioning slot, thereby making the upper shell and the lower shell firmly connected.
[0014] The advantages of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. This utility model achieves convenient packaging of the optical module body through structural design such as movable rod, snap ring, and support frame. When the internal optical module of the device is inspected or replaced, the upper and lower shells can automatically pop open without manual disassembly. This solves the problem that the optical module cannot be disassembled by itself after it is packaged and fixed, and improves the efficiency of optical module inspection and replacement.
[0016] 2. This utility model extends the front end of the locking rod during installation, and connects the middle part to the lower end of the support frame using an openable hinge. This structure allows the locking rod to move with the movement of the support frame. Furthermore, the locking block provides a limit structure at the upper end of the movable part inside the through hole. Thus, when the upper and lower housings are connected, the movable part is locked in place, making the connection between the two secure. Attached Figure Description

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 scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0025] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.
[0026] This application discloses a packaging structure for a 43G coherent optical module. (Refer to...) Figure 1 A packaging structure for a 43G coherent optical module includes an optical module body 1; a lower shell mechanism 2 is installed below the optical module body 1, a packaging mechanism 3 is installed inside the side of the lower shell mechanism 2, and an upper shell mechanism 4 is installed above the optical module body 1.
[0027] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The encapsulation mechanism 3 includes a movable rod 301, a retaining spring 302 fixedly installed at the lower end of the movable rod 301, and U-shaped limiting blocks 303 fixedly installed at the lower ends of the left and right sides of the movable rod 301. A support frame 304 is movably connected to the lower end of the U-shaped limiting blocks 303. The retaining spring 302 installed at the lower end of the movable rod 301 gives the movable rod 301 the ability to bounce up and down, thereby facilitating the opening and closing of the components at the upper and lower ends of the movable rod 301.
[0028] The movable rod 301 is movably installed in the middle of the built-in groove 204 via the snap ring 302. The U-shaped limiting blocks 303 are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the movable rod 301. The lower end of the support frame 304 is movably connected to the front end of the locking rod 207. After the U-shaped limiting blocks 303 and the support frame 304 are fixedly connected, they maintain a rotatable structure. When force is applied to the movable rod 301, the snap ring 302 is pressed down, and the support frame 304 moves down to both sides, pushing the locking rod 207 connected at the lower end to move inside the movable groove 205. Once the snap ring 302 loses pressure, it can drive the support frame 304 to quickly rebound, and the locking rod 207 will also automatically follow and move outward, thus enabling the encapsulation structure of the device to have an automatic rebound function.
[0029] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The lower shell mechanism 2 includes a lower shell 201. Positioning holes 202 are provided inside the left and right sides of the upper end of the lower shell 201. Positioning grooves 203 are provided inside the front and rear sides of the upper end of the lower shell 201. An internal groove 204 is provided in the middle of the front and rear sides of the upper end of the lower shell 201. A movable groove 205 is provided in the middle of the lower end of the internal groove 204. A pulley 206 is fixedly installed above the inner end of the movable groove 205. A locking rod 207 is movably installed inside the movable groove 205. A sliding groove 208 is provided in the middle of the upper end of the locking rod 207. The front end of the locking rod 207 extends outward, and the middle part is connected to the lower end of the support frame 304 by an openable hinge. This structure allows the locking rod 207 to move with the movement of the support frame 304.
[0030] The lower housing 201 is movably installed below the optical module body 1. The movable slots 205 are symmetrically distributed inside the inner left and right sides of the inner end of the built-in slot 204. The pulley 206 and the sliding slot 208 are matched. The setting of the pulley 206 allows the lever 207 to move back and forth smoothly inside the movable slot 205.
[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 The upper shell mechanism 4 includes an upper shell 401. A fixing groove 402 is provided in the middle of the upper end of the upper shell 401. A through hole 403 is provided inside the side of the fixing groove 402. A locking block 404 is movably installed inside the fixing groove 402. A pull handle 405 is fixedly installed in the middle of the locking block 404. Positioning rods 406 are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the lower end of the upper shell 401. Connecting blocks 407 are fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the lower end of the upper shell 401. A locking groove 408 is provided inside the connecting block 407. The setting of the locking block 404 provides a limit structure at the upper end of the movable part inside the through hole 403. Thus, when the upper shell 401 and the lower shell 201 are connected, the movable part can be locked, making the connection between the two stable.
[0032] The upper housing 401 is movably mounted on top of the optical module body 1. The through hole 403 is adapted to the movable rod 301, and the locking block 404 is adapted to the fixing groove 402. The locking block 404 is a T-shaped structure. The T-shaped locking block 404 is locked inside the fixing groove 402, and the two fit together and are not easy to loosen.
[0033] The positioning rod 406 and the positioning groove 203 are compatible, and the connecting block 407 and the positioning groove 203 are compatible. The positioning rod 406 and the connecting block 407 are designed to increase the stability of the upper housing 401 and the lower housing 201 after connection, and also have a better positioning effect.
[0034] The slot 408 and the lever 207 are compatible, and the through hole 403 and the movable rod 301 are movably connected. The lever 207 moves to a certain position inside the movable groove 205 and is inserted into the slot 408, thereby fixing the connecting block 407 inside the positioning groove 203, thus making the upper housing 401 and the lower housing 201 firmly connected.
[0035] Working Principle: This utility model relates to a packaging structure for a 43G coherent optical module. During operation, the optical module body 1 is first placed in the middle of the lower housing 201. Then, the positioning rod 406 and connecting block 407, located at the lower end of the upper housing 401, are respectively inserted into the positioning groove 203 and the internal groove 204. During insertion, the through hole 403 inside the upper housing 401 aligns with the movable rod 301 movably installed inside the lower housing 201. The upper housing 401 then applies force to the lower housing 201, causing the upper end of the movable rod 301 to protrude from the through hole 403. At this point, the locking block 404 is inserted into the fixing groove 402. During insertion, the movable rod 301 is pressed down into the through hole 403. The part is located below the locking block 404. Therefore, due to the force on the movable rod 301, the retaining spring 302 is pressed down, and the support frame 304 moves down to both sides, pushing the locking rod 207 connected at the lower end to move inside the movable groove 205. The locking rod 207 is pushed inward by the force and will be locked into the locking groove 408 opened inside the connecting block 407, thus fixing the connecting block 407 inside the positioning groove 203. This makes the upper housing 401 and the lower housing 201 firmly connected. When disassembling, as long as the locking block 404 is taken out from the inside of the fixing groove 402, the retaining spring 302 will lose pressure, which will drive the support frame 304 to quickly spring back. The locking rod 207 will also automatically follow and move outward, thus giving the encapsulation structure of the device an automatic spring-back function.
[0036] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
