Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fiber optic cabling technology, and in particular to a modular fiber optic cabling box with a self-healing patch cord integration device. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of fiber optic communication technology, fiber optic patch cords are widely used in data centers, communication base stations, and other scenarios to achieve rapid connections and signal transmission between devices or modules. Patch cords typically connect to a fiber optic cabling box or patch panel at one end and to external terminal equipment at the other, using standardized interfaces for plug-in connections.
[0003] A search revealed Chinese Patent Publication No. CN214750992U, which discloses an optical fiber distribution frame. The frame includes a frame for optical fiber cabling, with cable trays for cable entry and exit on both sides of the frame along its axial length. An entry port is located on an adjacent side wall of each cable tray. A cabling tray for branching is located in the middle of the frame. Two distribution modules are symmetrically arranged inside the frame and on both sides of the cabling tray. Cable bundles extend from the entry ports to the distribution modules and are branched off before being fixed to the cabling tray. Each distribution module includes a winding post with multiple cable partitions arranged in a ring array. Multiple sets of cable partitions are evenly spaced from top to bottom, and the gaps between these sets form cable trays. This design allows for layered management of optical fiber cables, resulting in a clear optical fiber cabling structure, modular grouping, easy viewing, and convenient cabling.
[0004] However, in practical applications, patch cord interfaces are prone to problems such as loosening, poor contact, or accidental detachment, especially in environments with strong vibrations, frequent plugging and unplugging, or limited space. Once the patch cord connection becomes loose, it is often difficult to detect, which can easily cause abnormal signal transmission, network interruption, or even equipment failure, seriously affecting the stability and reliability of the system. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a modular fiber optic cabling box with a self-healing patch cord integration device, which aims to improve the problem that traditional patch cord interfaces are prone to loosening, causing abnormal signal transmission, network interruption, and affecting the stability and reliability of the system.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A modular fiber optic cabling box with a self-healing patch cord integration device includes a box body. A port is fixedly connected inside the box body. A patch cord body is disposed on the inner wall of the port. A limiting ring I is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the patch cord body. A retaining plate is disposed on the outer wall of the limiting ring I. A connecting post is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the retaining plate. The outer wall of the connecting post is slidably connected to the inner wall of the box body. A limiting ring II is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting post. The outer wall of the limiting ring II is slidably connected to the inner wall of the box body. A spring I is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the limiting ring II. The outer wall of the spring I is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box body. A storage component is disposed on the inner wall of the box body.
[0008] Through the above technical solution: the box can provide fixed support for the port, the patch cord body can transmit optical fiber through the port, the card plate can limit the position of the limiting ring, and thus limit the position of the patch cord body. Spring 1 can push the limiting ring 2 to slide inward through its elastic force, thereby driving the connecting post to slide inward, and then driving the card plate to slide inward. The sliding of the card plate generates a continuous pushing force on the limiting ring 1, driving the patch cord body to slide inward, ensuring that the patch cord body is always inserted into the inner wall of the port and preventing loosening.
[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0010] The storage component includes a rotating disk, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing, and an optical fiber body is provided on the outer wall of the rotating disk.
[0011] Through the above technical solution, the box can provide fixed support for the rotating disk, while the rotating disk can store the optical fiber itself.
[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0013] The outer wall of the optical fiber body is provided with a fusion splice plate, and the lower surface of the fusion splice plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box.
[0014] Through the above technical solution, the housing can provide fixed support for the fusion splice tray, while the fusion splice tray can fix and protect the splice point between the optical fiber and the optical cable, preventing damage.
[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0016] A second spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the welding plate, and a limit post is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the second spring.
[0017] Through the above technical solution: the welding plate can support the second spring, and the second spring can push the limiting post to slide downward.
[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0019] The outer wall of the limiting post is slidably connected to the inner wall of the welding plate, and a sliding post is fixedly connected to the top of the limiting post.
[0020] Through the above technical solution, the welding plate can provide sliding support for the limiting post, and the sliding of the limiting post will also drive the sliding post to slide.
[0021] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0022] The outer wall of the sliding column is slidably connected to the inner wall of the welding plate, and the top of the sliding column is fixedly connected to an upper clamping plate.
[0023] Through the above technical solution, the welding plate can also play a sliding support role for the sliding column, and the sliding of the sliding column will drive the upper clamping plate to slide downward.
[0024] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0025] A silicone pad is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the upper clamping plate, the outer wall of the silicone pad is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the optical fiber body, and a lower clamping plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the silicone pad.
[0026] The above technical solution allows the upper clamp to hold and fix the optical fiber body by pressing down. The silicone pad not only prevents the optical fiber body from sliding, but also buffers the clamping of the optical fiber body, avoiding damage to the optical fiber body from hard clamping.
[0027] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0028] A spring three is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the welding plate, and the top end of the spring three is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the lower clamping plate.
[0029] The above technical solution allows the lower clamping plate to slide upwards using the rebound force of spring three, thus achieving a clamping and fixing effect with the upper clamping plate.
[0030] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0031] 1. In this utility model, through the mutual cooperation between the box body, port, jumper body, limiting ring one, card plate, connecting post, limiting ring two and spring one, it is ensured that the jumper body is always inserted into the inner wall of the port, avoiding loosening or falling off, causing abnormal signal transmission and other problems, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the system.
[0032] 2. In this utility model, through the cooperation between the optical fiber body, splice tray, spring two, limiting post, sliding post, upper clamping plate, silicone pad, spring three and lower clamping plate, the splice point of the optical cable and pigtail remains stable in the tray, reducing the possibility of breakage and improving the reliability of the optical fiber splice point.

Detailed Implementation
[0039] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0040] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2An embodiment of this utility model provides a modular fiber optic cabling box with a self-healing patch cord integration device, comprising a box body 1, a port 2 fixedly connected inside the box body 1, a patch cord body 3 disposed on the inner wall of the port 2, a limiting ring 4 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the patch cord body 3, a retaining plate 5 disposed on the outer wall of the limiting ring 4, a connecting post 6 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the retaining plate 5, the outer wall of the connecting post 6 being slidably connected to the inner wall of the box body 1, a limiting ring 7 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting post 6, the outer wall of the limiting ring 7 being slidably connected to the inner wall of the box body 1, a spring 8 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the limiting ring 7, the outer wall of the spring 8 being fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box body 1, and a storage component 9 disposed on the inner wall of the box body 1;
[0041] Specifically, housing 1 provides fixed support for port 2, patch cord 3 can be inserted into the inner wall of port 2 for fiber optic transmission, and clamping plate 5 limits the movement of limiting ring 4, thereby limiting patch cord 3. Simultaneously, housing 1 provides fixed support for spring 8. The elastic force of spring 8 pushes limiting ring 7 inward, causing connecting post 6 and clamping plate 5 to slide inward, which in turn causes limiting ring 4 to slide inward. Finally, limiting ring 4 causes patch cord 3 to slide into port 2, and the continuous elastic force of spring 8 pushes clamping plate 5 to push limiting ring 7 inward. 4. Continuously apply a pushing force inward to ensure that the jumper body 3 is always tightly inserted into the inner wall of port 2. At the same time, when the jumper body 3 is slightly pulled out or deviated due to external force, the pushing force will automatically push it back into its original position, realizing a certain degree of self-repair function, avoiding loosening or falling off, affecting the connection status, causing abnormal signal transmission, network interruption or even equipment failure, and improving the stability and reliability of the system. When it is necessary to pull out the jumper body 3, pull the limit ring 4 and the card plate 5 outward at the same time, drive the jumper body 3 to slide out of the inner wall of port 2, and then rotate the card plate 5, so that the limit ring 4 can leave the outer wall of the card plate 5 and release its limiting fixation.
[0042] Reference Figure 3 The storage component 9 includes a rotating disk 901, the bottom end of which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box 1, and an optical fiber body 902 is provided on the outer wall of the rotating disk 901.
[0043] Specifically, the housing 1 can provide fixed support for the rotating disk 901. After fiber optic splicing, redundant length is usually left to allow for subsequent maintenance. The redundant length of the fiber body 902 can be coiled and stored in the disk through the rotating disk 901 to avoid scattered accumulation.
[0044] Reference Figure 4The outer wall of the optical fiber body 902 is provided with a fusion splice tray 10, and the lower surface of the fusion splice tray 10 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box 1; the inner wall of the fusion splice tray 10 is fixedly connected with a spring 11, and the bottom end of the spring 11 is fixedly connected with a limit post 12; the outer wall of the limit post 12 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fusion splice tray 10, and the top end of the limit post 12 is fixedly connected with a sliding post 13.
[0045] Specifically, the box 1 can provide fixed support for the welding tray 10, and the welding tray 10 can provide fixed support for the spring 11. The elastic force of the spring 11 pushes the limiting post 12 to slide downward, and the sliding of the limiting post 12 will drive the sliding post 13 to slide downward. The welding tray 10 can provide sliding support for the limiting post 12, ensuring the stability of the sliding of the limiting post 12.
[0046] Reference Figure 4 The outer wall of the sliding post 13 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fusion splice tray 10, and the top of the sliding post 13 is fixedly connected to the upper clamping plate 14; the outer wall of the upper clamping plate 14 is fixedly connected to the silicone pad 15, the outer wall of the silicone pad 15 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the optical fiber body 902, and the outer wall of the silicone pad 15 is fixedly connected to the lower clamping plate 17; the inner wall of the fusion splice tray 10 is fixedly connected to the spring 16, and the top of the spring 16 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the lower clamping plate 17.
[0047] Specifically, the fusion splice tray 10 provides sliding support for the sliding post 13, ensuring its stable sliding. When the sliding post 13 slides downward, it also drives the upper clamping plate 14 to slide downward, clamping the fiber optic body 902 under pressure. Simultaneously, the fusion splice tray 10 provides fixed support for the spring 16, which in turn pushes the lower clamping plate 17 upward through its elasticity, thus clamping the fiber optic body 902 under pressure. The clamping action of the upper and lower clamping plates 14 and 17 secures the fiber optic body 902. The silicone pad 15 not only prevents the fiber optic body 902 from sliding but also avoids damage to the fiber optic body 902 from hard clamping. By clamping and securing the fiber optic body 902, it prevents loosening or displacement, ensuring that the fusion splice point between the optical cable and the pigtail remains stable within the tray, reducing the possibility of breakage and improving the reliability of the fiber optic fusion splice point.
[0048] Working principle: When the wiring box is needed, first rotate the card plate 5 and then pull the card plate 5 outward. Then, place the jumper body 3 into the inner wall of the card plate 5 so that the card plate 5 contacts the limiting ring 4. Then, align the jumper body 3 with the inner wall of the port 2. Then, the spring force of the spring 8 pushes the limiting ring 7 to slide inward. The sliding of the limiting ring 7 will drive the connecting post 6 to slide inward. The sliding of the connecting post 6 will also drive the card plate 5 to slide inward, thereby driving the limiting ring 4 to slide. In turn, the jumper body 3 will slide into the inner wall of the port 2. Through the continuous sliding pressure of the card plate 5 on the limiting ring 4, it is ensured that the jumper body 3 is always tightly inserted into the inner wall of the port 2, avoiding loosening or falling off, affecting the connection status, causing abnormal signal transmission, network interruption or even equipment failure, and improving the stability and reliability of the system.
[0049] Then, the optical fiber body 902 is placed between the two silicone pads 15. The spring force of the second spring 11 pushes the limiting post 12 to slide downward, thereby causing the sliding post 13 to slide downward, which in turn causes the upper clamping plate 14 and the upper silicone pad 15 to slide downward, pressing down on the optical fiber body 902. Then, the spring force of the third spring 16 pushes the lower clamping plate 17 and the lower silicone pad 15 to slide upward, pressing up on the optical fiber body 902. The pressure from both sides fixes and clamps the optical fiber body 902, so that the splice point of the optical cable and pigtail remains stable in the reel, reducing the possibility of breakage and improving the reliability of the optical fiber splice point.
[0050] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
