[0102] Some embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments provided in the present disclosure are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
[0103] Unless the context requires otherwise, throughout the specification and claims, the term "including" is to be interpreted as open and inclusive, that is, "including, but not limited to"; the terms "first" and "second" are not to be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or indicating an upper limit on quantity; the term "plurality" means two or more; the term "connected" is to be understood in a broad sense, for example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection, and can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium; the use of the terms "suitable for" or "configured to" means open and inclusive language, which does not exclude equipment that is suitable for or configured to perform additional tasks or steps; terms such as "parallel", "perpendicular", "same", "consistent", "level" and so on are not limited to absolute mathematical theoretical relationships, but also include acceptable error ranges generated in practice, and also include differences based on the same design concept but due to manufacturing reasons.
[0104] In optical communication technology, to establish information transmission between information processing devices, it is necessary to load the information onto light and use the propagation of light to achieve information transmission. Here, the light loaded with information is an optical signal. When transmitting optical signals within information transmission equipment, they can reduce optical power loss, thereby enabling high-speed, long-distance, and low-cost information transmission. The signals that information processing equipment can recognize and process are electrical signals. Information processing equipment typically includes optical network units (ONUs), gateways, routers, switches, mobile phones, computers, servers, tablets, televisions, etc., and information transmission equipment typically includes optical fibers and optical waveguides.
[0105] Optical modules can convert optical signals into electrical signals between information processing devices and information transmission devices. For example, at least one of the optical signal input or output ends of an optical module is connected to an optical fiber, and at least one of the electrical signal input or output ends of the optical module is connected to an optical network terminal. A first optical signal from the optical fiber is transmitted to the optical module, which converts the first optical signal into a first electrical signal and transmits the first electrical signal to the optical network terminal. A second electrical signal from the optical network terminal is transmitted to the optical module, which converts the second electrical signal into a second optical signal and transmits the second optical signal to the optical fiber. Because multiple information processing devices can transmit information via electrical signals, at least one of the multiple information processing devices needs to be directly connected to the optical module, rather than all of them. Here, the information processing device directly connected to the optical module is referred to as the optical module's host computer. Furthermore, the optical signal input or output end of the optical module can be referred to as an optical port, and the electrical signal input or output end of the optical module can be referred to as an electrical port.
[0106] Figure 1 is a partial structural diagram of an optical communication system provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 1, the optical communication system mainly includes a remote information processing device 1000, a local information processing device 2000, a host computer 100, an optical module 200, an optical fiber 101, and a network cable 103.
[0107] One end of optical fiber 101 extends toward remote information processing device 1000, and the other end of optical fiber 101 is connected to optical module 200 through the optical port of optical module 200. Optical signals can be totally reflected in optical fiber 101, and the propagation of the optical signal in the direction of total reflection can almost maintain the original optical power. The optical signal undergoes multiple total reflections in optical fiber 101 to transmit the optical signal from remote information processing device 1000 to optical module 200, and vice versa, thereby achieving long-distance, low-power information transmission.
[0108] The optical communication system may include one or more optical fibers 101, and the optical fibers 101 may be detachably connected or fixedly connected to the optical module 200. The host computer 100 is configured to provide data signals to the optical module 200, receive data signals from the optical module 200, or monitor or control the operating status of the optical module 200.
[0109] The host computer 100 includes a substantially rectangular housing and an optical module connection hole 102 provided on the housing. The optical module connection hole 102 is configured to connect to the optical module 200 to establish a unidirectional or bidirectional electrical signal connection between the host computer 100 and the optical module 200.
[0110] The host computer 100 also includes an external electrical connection port that can be connected to an electrical signal network. For example, the external electrical connection port includes a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connection port or a network cable connection port 104. The network cable connection port 104 is configured to connect to a network cable 103 to establish a unidirectional or bidirectional electrical signal connection between the host computer 100 and the network cable 103. One end of the network cable 103 is connected to the local information processing device 2000, and the other end of the network cable 103 is connected to the host computer 100, so that an electrical signal connection is established between the local information processing device 2000 and the host computer 100 via the network cable 103. For example, a third electrical signal emitted by the local information processing device 2000 is transmitted to the host computer 100 via the network cable 103. The host computer 100 generates a second electrical signal based on the third electrical signal. The second electrical signal from the host computer 100 is transmitted to the optical module 200. The optical module 200 converts the second electrical signal into a second optical signal and transmits the second optical signal to the optical fiber 101. The second optical signal is then transmitted to the remote information processing device 1000 via the optical fiber 101. For example, a first optical signal from the remote information processing device 1000 is transmitted through the optical fiber 101. The first optical signal from the optical fiber 101 is transmitted to the optical module 200. The optical module 200 converts the first optical signal into a first electrical signal. The optical module 200 transmits the first electrical signal to the host computer 100. The host computer 100 generates a fourth electrical signal based on the first electrical signal and transmits the fourth electrical signal to the local information processing device 2000. It should be noted that optical modules are tools for converting optical signals into electrical signals. During this conversion process, the information does not change, but the encoding and decoding methods of the information can change.
[0111] In addition to the optical network terminal, the host computer 100 also includes an optical line terminal (OLT), an optical network device (ONT), or a data center server.
[0112] FIG2 is a partial structural diagram of a host computer provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In order to clearly show the connection relationship between the optical module 200 and the host computer 100, FIG2 only shows the structure of the host computer 100 related to the optical module 200. As shown in FIG2, the host computer 100 also includes a PCB circuit board 105 disposed in the housing, a cage 106 disposed on the surface of the PCB circuit board 105, a heat sink 107 disposed on the cage 106, and an electrical connector disposed inside the cage 106. The electrical connector is configured to connect to the electrical port of the optical module 200; the heat sink 107 has a protruding structure such as fins that increase the heat dissipation area.
[0113] The optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106 of the host computer 100. The cage 106 secures the optical module 200. Heat generated by the optical module 200 is transferred to the cage 106 and then dissipated through the heat sink 107. After the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106, the electrical port of the optical module 200 connects with the electrical connector inside the cage 106, thereby establishing a bidirectional electrical signal connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer 100. Furthermore, the optical port of the optical module 200 connects to the optical fiber 101, thereby establishing a bidirectional optical signal connection between the optical module 200 and the optical fiber 101.
[0114] Figure 3 is a structural diagram of an optical module provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and Figure 4 is an exploded view of an optical module provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the optical module 200 includes a housing, a circuit board 300 disposed within the housing, a light emitting component 400, and a light receiving component 500. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the optical module 200 includes either the light emitting component 400 or the light receiving component 500.
[0115] The housing includes an upper housing 201 and a lower housing 202 . The upper housing 201 covers the lower housing 202 to form the housing having two openings 204 and 205 . The outer contour of the housing is generally a square.
[0116] In some embodiments, the lower shell 202 includes a base plate 2021 and two lower side plates 2022 located on both sides of the base plate 2021 and arranged perpendicular to the base plate 2021; the upper shell 201 includes a cover plate 2011, and the cover plate 2011 covers the two lower side plates 2022 of the lower shell 202 to form the above-mentioned shell.
[0117] In some embodiments, the lower shell 202 includes a base plate 2021 and two lower side plates 2022 located on both sides of the base plate 2021 and arranged perpendicularly to the base plate 2021; the upper shell 201 includes a cover plate 2011 and two upper side plates located on both sides of the cover plate 2011 and arranged perpendicularly to the cover plate 2011. The two upper side plates are combined with the two lower side plates 2022 to achieve the upper shell 201 covering the lower shell 202.
[0118] The direction of the line connecting the two openings 204 and 205 can be consistent with the length direction of the optical module 200, or it can be inconsistent with the length direction of the optical module 200. For example, opening 204 is located at the end of the optical module 200 (the right end in Figure 3), and opening 205 is also located at the end of the optical module 200 (the left end in Figure 3). Alternatively, opening 204 is located at the end of the optical module 200, while opening 205 is located on the side of the optical module 200. Opening 204 is an electrical port, from which the gold finger of the circuit board 300 extends and is inserted into the electrical connector of the host computer 100; opening 205 is an optical port, which is configured to connect to the external optical fiber 101, so that the optical fiber 101 connects the optical emitting component 400 and the optical receiving component 500 in the optical module 200.
[0119] The combined assembly of the upper housing 201 and the lower housing 202 facilitates the installation of the circuit board 300, the light emitting component 400, and the light receiving component 500 within the housing. The upper housing 201 and the lower housing 202 provide encapsulation and protection for these components. Furthermore, during assembly of the circuit board 300, the light emitting component 400, and the light receiving component 500, the positioning components, heat dissipation components, and electromagnetic shielding components of these components are easily positioned, facilitating automated production.
[0120] In some embodiments, the upper shell 201 and the lower shell 202 are made of metal materials, which facilitates electromagnetic shielding and heat dissipation.
[0121] In some embodiments, the optical module 200 further includes an unlocking component 600 located outside its housing. The unlocking component 600 is configured to achieve a fixed connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer, or to release the fixed connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer.
[0122] For example, the unlocking component 600 is located on the outside of the two lower side panels 2022 of the lower housing 202 and includes a snap-fit component that mates with the cage 106 of the host computer 100. When the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106, the snap-fit component of the unlocking component 600 secures the optical module 200 in the cage 106. When the unlocking component 600 is pulled, the snap-fit component of the unlocking component 600 moves accordingly, thereby changing the connection between the snap-fit component and the host computer, thereby releasing the optical module 200 from the cage 106 and allowing the optical module 200 to be removed from the cage 106.
[0123] The circuit board 300 includes circuit traces, electronic components, and chips. The electronic components and chips are connected according to the circuit design through the circuit traces to achieve functions such as power supply, electrical signal transmission, and grounding. Electronic components may include, for example, capacitors, resistors, transistors, and metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). Chips may include, for example, microcontroller units (MCUs), laser driver chips, transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs), limiting amplifiers (LIAs), clock and data recovery chips (CDRs), power management chips, and digital signal processing (DSP) chips.
[0124] The circuit board 300 is generally a rigid circuit board. Due to its relatively hard material, the rigid circuit board can also realize the load-bearing function. For example, the rigid circuit board can stably carry the above-mentioned electronic components and chips; the rigid circuit board can also be inserted into the electrical connector in the cage 106 of the host computer 100.
[0125] The circuit board 300 also includes a gold finger formed on the surface of its end, and the gold finger is composed of a plurality of independent pins. The circuit board 300 is inserted into the cage 106, and the gold finger is connected to the electrical connector in the cage 106. The gold finger can be set only on the surface of one side of the circuit board 300 (for example, the upper surface shown in Figure 4), or it can be set on the upper and lower surfaces of the circuit board 300 to provide a larger number of pins, thereby adapting to occasions where a large number of pins are required. The gold finger is configured to establish an electrical connection with the host computer to achieve power supply, grounding, two-wire synchronous serial (Inter-Integrated Circuit, I2C) signal transmission, data signal transmission, etc. Of course, flexible circuit boards are also used in some optical modules. Flexible circuit boards are generally used in conjunction with rigid circuit boards to supplement rigid circuit boards.
[0126] At least one of the light emitting component 400 or the light receiving component 500 is located on a side of the circuit board 300 away from the gold finger.
[0127] In some embodiments, the light emitting component 400 and the light receiving component 500 are physically separated from the circuit board 300 and then electrically connected to the circuit board 300 through corresponding flexible circuit boards or electrical connectors.
[0128] In some embodiments, at least one of the light emitting component 400 or the light receiving component 500 may be directly disposed on the circuit board 300. For example, at least one of the light emitting component 400 or the light receiving component 500 may be disposed on a surface of the circuit board 300 or a side of the circuit board 300.
[0129] The optical emitting component and the optical receiving component constitute the optical transceiver component, which is electrically connected to the circuit board 300. The optical emitting component is the transmitting end of the optical transceiver component, and the optical receiving component is the receiving end of the optical transceiver component. Both the transmitting end and the receiving end of the optical transceiver component are electrically connected to the circuit board 300.
[0130] In some embodiments, one end of the light receiving component 500 can be connected to the light emitting component 400. For example, the light input end of the light receiving component 500 can be connected to the light output end of the light emitting component 400.
[0131] In some embodiments, the optical receiving component 500 can receive optical signals having multiple wavelengths. For example, the optical receiving component 500 receives optical signals having three wavelengths, each having different rates, such as a first wavelength optical signal, a second wavelength optical signal, and a third wavelength optical signal having different rates. The first wavelength optical signal includes a first wavelength optical signal, the second wavelength optical signal includes a second wavelength optical signal, and the third wavelength optical signal includes a third wavelength optical signal.
[0132] In some embodiments, the wavelength range of the first wavelength optical signal may be 1284-1288 nm, or 1290-1330 nm, or 1260-1280 nm. For example, the wavelength range of the first wavelength optical signal is 1284-1288 nm, such as the wavelength of the first wavelength optical signal is 1286 nm.
[0133] In some embodiments, the wavelength range of the second wavelength optical signal may be 1284-1288 nm, or 1290-1330 nm, or 1260-1280 nm. For example, the wavelength range of the second wavelength optical signal is 1290-1330 nm, such as the wavelength of the second wavelength optical signal is 1310 nm.
[0134] In some embodiments, the wavelength range of the third wavelength optical signal may be 1284-1288 nm, or 1290-1330 nm, or 1260-1280 nm. For example, the wavelength range of the third wavelength optical signal is 1260-1280 nm, such as the wavelength of the third wavelength optical signal is 1270 nm.
[0135] In some embodiments, the optical emitting component 400 can generate optical signals of multiple wavelengths. The optical signals of multiple wavelengths can be combined into a single transmitted optical signal, so that the number of transmitted optical signals emitted by the optical emitting component 400 is one. For example, the optical emitting component 400 can generate optical signals of three wavelengths, each with different rates, such as a fourth wavelength optical signal, a fifth wavelength optical signal, and a sixth wavelength optical signal having different rates.
[0136] In some embodiments, the wavelength range of the fourth wavelength optical signal is 1340-1344 nm, such as the wavelength of the fourth wavelength optical signal is 1342 nm; the wavelength range of the fifth wavelength optical signal is 1575-1580 nm, such as the wavelength of the fifth wavelength optical signal is 1577 nm; the wavelength range of the sixth wavelength optical signal is 1480-1500 nm, such as the wavelength of the sixth wavelength optical signal is 1490 nm.
[0137] As shown in FIG4 , in some embodiments, a fiber optic adapter 700 may be disposed within the housing of the optical module 200. One end of the fiber optic adapter 700 may be connected to the other end of the optical receiving component 500, so that an externally inputted received optical signal is input to the optical receiving component 500 through the fiber optic adapter 700. For example, one end of the fiber optic adapter 700 may be connected to the optical input and output ends of the optical receiving component 500.
[0138] In some embodiments, the light input end of the light receiving component 500 and the light input and output ends of the light receiving component 500 may be disposed at both ends of the light receiving component 500 along the length direction of the light receiving component 500 .
[0139] One end of the optical receiving component 500 can be connected to the optical transmitting component 400, and the other end of the optical receiving component 500 can be connected to one end of the optical fiber adapter 700. The light emitting direction of the optical transmitting component 400 is toward the optical fiber adapter 700, so that the transmitted optical signal emitted by the optical transmitting component 400 is first transmitted to the optical receiving component 500, then transmitted to the optical fiber adapter 700 through the optical receiving component 500, and finally output through the optical fiber adapter 700. The optical receiving component 500 and the optical transmitting component 400 share the optical fiber adapter 700, and thus the uplink and downlink optical signals of the optical module share the optical fiber 101.
[0140] In some embodiments, among the optical signals incident on the optical receiving component 500, the number of transmitted optical signals (i.e., transmitted light beams) emitted by the optical transmitting component 400 is less than the number of externally input received optical signals (i.e., received light beams). For example, among the optical signals incident on the optical receiving component 500, the number of transmitted optical signals (i.e., transmitted light beams) emitted by the optical transmitting component 400 is at least two less than the number of externally input received optical signals (i.e., received light beams), thereby reducing the difficulty of splitting the optical signals within the optical receiving component 500.

For example, the first electrical input terminal is located on the fourth side wall of the light receiving component 500, and the second electrical input terminal and the third electrical input terminal are located on the second side wall of the light receiving component 500.
[0151] In some embodiments, the side wall where the first electrical input terminal, the second electrical input terminal, and the third electrical input terminal are located is the same side wall.

[0163] Figure 10 is an assembly diagram of an optical transceiver component and a fiber optic adapter according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 11 is an exploded view of an optical transceiver component and a fiber optic adapter according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 12 is a structural diagram of a first cavity according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 10, 11, and 12, in some embodiments, the first end of the optical receiving component 500 can be connected to the fiber optic adapter 700. The second end of the optical receiving component 500 can be connected to the optical transmitting component 400.
[0164] In some embodiments, the light receiving component 500 may include a first cavity. One end of the first cavity may be connected to the light emitting component 400. The other end of the first cavity may be connected to the fiber optic adapter 700, so that the first cavity can receive the received optical signal emitted by the fiber optic adapter 700. One end of the first cavity may be connected to the light emitting component 400, and the other end of the first cavity may be connected to one end of the fiber optic adapter 700, so that the transmitted optical signal emitted by the light emitting component 400 is first transmitted into the first cavity, then transmitted through the first cavity to the fiber optic adapter 700, and finally output through the fiber optic adapter 700.
[0165] As shown in Figures 10, 11, and 12, in some embodiments, the optical receiving component 500 may include at least one optical receiving assembly. The at least one optical receiving assembly may be connected to the first cavity, so that an externally input received optical signal (including optical signals of multiple wavelengths) is input into the first cavity through the optical fiber adapter 700 and then transmitted to the at least one optical receiving assembly through the first cavity.
[0166] In some embodiments, the at least one optical receiving component may include a first optical receiving component 530. The first optical receiving component 530 may receive an optical signal of a third wavelength. For example, the wavelength of the optical signal received by the first optical receiving component 530 may be in the range of 1260-1280 nm.
[0167] In some embodiments, the at least one optical receiving component may include a second optical receiving component 520. The second optical receiving component 520 may receive an optical signal of a first wavelength. For example, the wavelength of the optical signal received by the second optical receiving component 520 may be in the range of 1284-1288 nm.
[0168] In some embodiments, the at least one optical receiving component may include a third optical receiving component 540. The third optical receiving component 540 may receive an optical signal of a second wavelength. For example, the wavelength of the optical signal received by the third optical receiving component 540 is in the range of 1290-1330 nm.
[0169] The at least one optical receiving component includes a first optical receiving component 530 , a second optical receiving component 520 , and a third optical receiving component 540 , so that the optical receiving unit 500 can receive optical signals of three wavelengths having different rates.
[0170] In some embodiments, the first optical receiving assembly 530, the second optical receiving assembly 520, and the third optical receiving assembly 540 can be coaxially packaged. Exemplarily, the receiving optical axes of the first optical receiving assembly 530, the second optical receiving assembly 520, and the third optical receiving assembly 540 are parallel to each other. That is, the first optical receiving assembly 530, the second optical receiving assembly 520, and the third optical receiving assembly 540 each include a receiving tube cap and a receiving tube base. The receiving tube cap is mounted on the receiving tube base to form a receiving cavity. A light receiving chip is disposed within the receiving cavity. The light receiving chip receives optical signals and converts the optical signals into electrical signals.
[0171] The receiver socket is also provided with a receiver pin, one end of which is connected to the circuit board 300 via the flexible circuit board 900, thereby electrically connecting the receiver pin and the circuit board 300. The receiver pin extends upward from the bottom of the receiver socket until it extends beyond the top of the receiver socket, where it is wired to the pad where the optical receiver chip is located, thereby electrically connecting the receiver pin and the optical receiver chip, thereby transmitting the electrical signal through the receiver pin to the circuit board 300.
[0172] The receiving pins of the optical receiving components serve as electrical inputs for the optical receiving element 500. For example, the receiving pin of the first optical receiving component 530 serves as the second electrical input of the optical receiving component 500, the receiving pin of the second optical receiving component 520 serves as the third electrical input of the optical receiving component 500, and the receiving pin of the third optical receiving component 540 serves as the first electrical input of the optical receiving component 500. As shown in Figures 6, 8, and 9, the fourth flexible printed circuit board 904 is connected to the receiving pin of the second optical receiving component 520, the third flexible printed circuit board 903 is connected to the receiving pin of the first optical receiving component 530, and the second flexible printed circuit board 902 is connected to the receiving pin of the third optical receiving component 540.
[0173] In some embodiments, a second lens is disposed on the top of the receiving tube cap of the optical receiving assembly. The second lens is a converging lens that can converge and couple the optical signal incident on the second lens to the optical receiving chip in the receiving cavity.
[0174] The second lens may or may not protrude from the receiving tube cap. When the second lens does not protrude from the receiving tube cap, a 0° filter may be directly mounted on the top of the optical receiving component. The 0° filter allows light signals of a certain wavelength to pass through, thereby reducing the incidence of light signals of other wavelengths on the light receiving chip of the optical receiving component. As shown in Figure 11, a second filter 5178 is directly mounted on the top of the second optical receiving component 520. The second filter 5178 is a 0° filter that allows light signals of a second wavelength to pass through.
[0175] When the second lens protrudes from the receiving tube cap, a bracket 550 is provided on the top of the optical receiving assembly to mount a 0° filter. As shown in Figure 11, the top of the first optical receiving assembly 530 is mounted with a first filter 5177 via bracket 550. First filter 5177 is a 0° filter that allows the first wavelength optical signal to pass through.
[0176] In some embodiments, the receiving rates of the optical receiving chip of the first optical receiving assembly 530, the receiving rates of the optical receiving chip of the second optical receiving assembly 520, and the receiving rates of the optical receiving chip of the third optical receiving assembly 540 may all be different. For example, the receiving rate of the optical receiving chip of the second optical receiving assembly 520 is greater than the receiving rate of the optical receiving chip of the first optical receiving assembly 530, and greater than the receiving rate of the optical receiving chip of the third optical receiving assembly 540. For example, the receiving rate of the optical receiving chip of the first optical receiving assembly 530 is 10G, the receiving rate of the optical receiving chip of the second optical receiving assembly 520 is 25G, and the receiving rate of the optical receiving chip of the third optical receiving assembly 540 is 2.5G.
[0177] In some embodiments, the first light receiving component 530 , the second light receiving component 520 , and the third light receiving component 540 are all located on the same side of the light receiving member 500 .
[0178] In some embodiments, the first light receiving component 530 and the second light receiving component 520 may be located on one side of the light receiving component 500 , and the third light receiving component 540 may be located on the other side of the light receiving component 500 to reduce the length of the light receiving component 500 .
[0179] As shown in Figures 10, 11, and 12, in some embodiments, the first cavity may include a first connection hole 5111. The first connection hole 5111 may be located at the optical input and output ends of the light receiving component 500. The first connection hole 5111 may be connected to the optical fiber adapter 700 to connect the optical fiber adapter 700 to the first cavity. For example, one end of a connecting sleeve 710 is inserted into the first connection hole 5111, and the other end of the connecting sleeve 710 is connected to the optical fiber adapter 700, thereby connecting the optical fiber adapter 700 to the first cavity via the connecting sleeve 710.
[0180] 10, 11 and 12, in some embodiments, the first cavity may include a second connection hole 5131. The second connection hole 5131 may be located at the light input end of the light receiving component 500 to connect the light emitting component 400 to the first cavity.
[0181] In some embodiments, the first connection hole 5111 and the second connection hole 5131 may be arranged opposite to each other.
[0182] In some embodiments, an isolator may be provided in the second connection hole 5131. The isolator may allow the optical transmission signal emitted by the optical transmission component 400 to be incident on the optical reception component 500, and prevent the optical transmission signal incident on the optical reception component 500 from returning to the optical transmission component 400.
[0183] As shown in Figures 10, 11, and 12, in some embodiments, the first cavity may include a third connection hole 5141. The third connection hole 5141 can be used to insert one of the at least one light receiving assembly to connect the at least one light receiving assembly to the first cavity. For example, the third connection hole 5141 can be used to insert a third light receiving assembly 540 to connect the third light receiving assembly 540 to the first cavity.
[0184] As shown in Figures 10, 11, and 12, in some embodiments, the first cavity may include a fourth connection hole 5121. The fourth connection hole 5121 can be used to insert another light receiving component in the at least one light receiving component to connect the other light receiving component in the at least one light receiving component to the first cavity. For example, the fourth connection hole 5121 can be used to insert the second light receiving component 520 to connect the second light receiving component 520 to the first cavity.
[0185] As shown in Figures 10, 11, and 12, in some embodiments, the first cavity may include a fifth connection hole 5122. The fifth connection hole 5122 can be used to insert another light receiving component in the at least one light receiving component to connect the at least one light receiving component to the first cavity. For example, the fifth connection hole 5122 can be used to insert the first light receiving component 530 to connect the first light receiving component 530 to the first cavity.
[0186] In some embodiments, the fourth connection hole 5121 and the fifth connection hole 5122 may be located on one side wall of the first cavity, and the third connection hole 5141 may be located on the other side wall of the first cavity, so as to reduce the length of the first cavity.
[0187] Figure 13 is an assembly diagram of a first light receiving assembly, a bracket, and a first filter according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 14 is a cross-sectional view of the first light receiving assembly, the bracket, and the first filter according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 15 is an exploded view of the first light receiving assembly, the bracket, and the first filter according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 13, 14, and 15, in some embodiments, the first light receiving assembly 530 may include a receiving socket 532, a receiving cap 533, and receiving pins 531. The receiving cap 533 is positioned on top of the receiving socket 532 to form a receiving cavity, within which a light receiving chip is disposed. The receiving pins 531 extend upward from the bottom of the receiving socket 532 until they protrude from the top of the receiving socket 532. In other words, the receiving pins 531 extend from the bottom of the receiving socket 532 into the receiving cavity, so that the ends of the receiving pins 531 are located within the receiving cavity and connect to the light receiving chip and other components within the cavity. The receiving cap 533 is provided with a second lens 534.
[0188] As shown in FIG. 11 , FIG. 13 and FIG. 14 , a bracket 550 is provided on the top of the first light receiving assembly 530 , and a first filter 5177 is mounted on the bracket 550 .
[0189] Figure 16 is a structural diagram of a bracket according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 17 is a structural diagram of a bracket according to some embodiments of the present disclosure from another perspective. As shown in Figures 16 and 17, in some embodiments, the bracket 550 may include a first fixing portion 551. The bottom surface of the first fixing portion 551 may contact and connect with the outer top surface of the receiving tube cap 533, thereby fixing the first fixing portion 551 to the receiving tube cap 533.
[0190] As shown in Figures 16 and 17, in some embodiments, the bracket 550 may include a second fixing portion 552. The bottom surface of the second fixing portion 552 may contact and connect with the top surface of the first fixing portion 551, thereby fixing the second fixing portion 552 to the first fixing portion 551. It should be noted that the second fixing portion 552 may be integrally formed with the first fixing portion 551. The top surface of the second fixing portion 552 may be mounted with the first filter 5177.
[0191] As shown in Figures 16 and 17, in some embodiments, the bracket 550 may include a blocking portion 553. The inner surface of the blocking portion 553 contacts and connects with the outer surface of the second fixing portion 552, so that the blocking portion 553 and the second fixing portion 552 are fixedly connected.
[0192] In some embodiments, the height of the enclosing portion 553 is greater than the height of the second fixing portion 552 to enclose the first filter 5177 to prevent the first filter 5177 from shaking as much as possible, thereby causing instability in optical signal transmission.
[0193] As shown in Figures 16 and 17, in some embodiments, the bracket 500 has a first light-through hole 554. The first light-through hole 554 can extend from the first fixing portion 551 to the second fixing portion 552, so that the first light-through hole 554 can pass through the bracket 500, thereby allowing the optical signal of the first cavity to be incident on the first light receiving component 530 through the first light-through hole 554.
[0194] In some embodiments, the first filter 5177 is placed at the end of the first light hole 554 to block the end of the first light hole 554, thereby allowing the optical signal (i.e., the third wavelength optical signal) that passes through the first filter 5177 to be incident on the first light receiving component 530 through the first light hole 554. For example, the size of the first filter 5177 is larger than the size of the first light hole 554.
[0195] In some embodiments, the size of the first light hole 554 is greater than or equal to the size of the second lens 534, so that the first light hole 554 can accommodate the second lens 534, that is, the second lens 534 is at least partially located in the first light hole 554, so that the optical signal of the first cavity is coupled to the optical receiving chip of the first optical receiving component 530 through the second lens 534 in the first light hole 554.
[0196] The first light hole 554 can accommodate the second lens 534, and the first filter 5177 is placed on the first light hole 554 so that the optical signal of the first filter 5177 (i.e., the third wavelength optical signal) is coupled to the optical receiving chip of the first optical receiving component 530 through the second lens 534 in the first light hole 554.
[0197] Figure 18 is an exploded view of a first cavity according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 19 is an exploded view of a first housing and a light receiving assembly according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 18 and 19, in some embodiments, the first cavity may include a first cover plate 515.
[0198] As shown in Figures 18 and 19, in some embodiments, the first cavity may include a first housing 510. A first cover 515 may be placed over the first housing 510 to form the first cavity. A receiving optical component 517 may be disposed within the first cavity. The receiving optical component 517 may transmit a transmitted optical signal to the fiber optic adapter 700, or may split a received optical signal transmitted by the fiber optic adapter 700 to the first cavity and transmit the split optical signal to a corresponding optical receiving component.
[0199] During the assembly process, the light receiving component 517 is first fixed in the first housing 510 , and then the first cover 515 is covered on the first housing 510 to form a first cavity.
[0200] Figure 20 is an optical path diagram of a receiving optical assembly according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 20 , in some embodiments, receiving optical assembly 517 may include a first lens 5171. First lens 5171 is used to collimate / focus optical signals. For example, received optical signals transmitted from the first cavity to the fiber optic adapter 700 are focused by first lens 5171, and optical signals transmitted from the fiber optic adapter 700 to the first cavity are collimated by first lens 5171.
[0201] As shown in FIG20 , in some embodiments, the receiving optical component 517 may include a wave splitting component 5172. The first end of the wave splitting component 5172 may be disposed correspondingly to the first end of the optical receiving component, and the second end of the wave splitting component 5172 may be disposed correspondingly to the second end of the optical receiving component, so that the wave splitting component 5172 may be disposed along the length direction of the optical receiving component 500.
[0202] The wave splitter assembly 5172 can be positioned along the length of the optical receiving component 500, that is, along the length of the first housing 510, thereby reducing the width of the first housing 510 and, in turn, the width of the optical receiving component 500. When the wave splitter assembly 5172 is positioned along the length of the first housing 510, the width of the first housing 510 required to accommodate the wave splitter assembly 5172 can be reduced to meet the requirement. Because the optical receiving component's receiving pins are relatively short, reducing the width of the first housing 510 also reduces the width of the optical receiving component 500.
[0203] In some embodiments, the wave splitting assembly 5172 can be located between the first lens 5171 and the optical emitting component 400. The wave splitting assembly 5172 is disposed along the length of the optical receiving component 500 so that the wave splitting assembly 5172 can transmit the transmitted optical signal emitted by the optical emitting component 400 to the first lens 5171. The wave splitting assembly 5172 can split the optical signal collimated by the first lens 5171 according to wavelength. For example, the wave splitting assembly 5172 splits a received optical signal including a first wavelength, a second wavelength, and a third wavelength into a first wavelength optical signal, a second wavelength optical signal, and a third wavelength optical signal according to wavelength.
[0204] The wave splitting component 5172 can transmit the transmitted light signal (i.e., the transmitted light beam) emitted by the light emitting component 400 to the first lens 5171, and can also split the received light signal (i.e., the received light beam) collimated by the first lens 5171 according to the wavelength, thereby reducing the distance between the transmitted light beam and the received light beam in the width direction of the first shell 510, and thereby reducing the width dimension of the light receiving component 500.
[0205] In some embodiments, the first end of the wave splitter assembly 5172 has a receiving light input port, and the second end of the wave splitter assembly 5172 has a transmitting light input port. The transmitted light signal emitted by the optical transmitting component 400 is incident on the transmitting light input port at the second end of the wave splitter assembly 5172 and is emitted through the receiving light input port at the first end of the wave splitter assembly 5172. The received light signal, including the first wavelength, the second wavelength, and the third wavelength, emitted by the optical fiber adapter 700 is incident on the receiving light input port at the first end of the wave splitter assembly 5172 and is reflected from the transmitting light input port at the second end of the wave splitter assembly 5172. The optical paths of the transmitted light signal and the received light signal overlap in the width direction of the optical receiving component 500, thereby reducing the width dimension of the optical receiving component 500.
[0206] In some embodiments, the first end of the wave splitter component 5172 has a first light output, and the second end of the wave splitter component 5172 has a second light output and a third light output. The received optical signal is reflected by the transmitted light input at the second end of the wave splitter component 5172 and then split into a first wavelength optical signal, a second wavelength optical signal, and a third wavelength optical signal. The first wavelength optical signal is emitted through the second light output of the second end of the wave splitter component 5172, the third wavelength optical signal is emitted through the first light output of the first end of the wave splitter component 5172, and the third wavelength optical signal is emitted through the third light output of the second end of the wave splitter component 5172.
[0207] In some embodiments, the first end of the wave splitter assembly 5172 and the second end of the wave splitter assembly 5172 are arranged in parallel so that the transmitted optical signal incident to the second end of the wave splitter assembly 5172 and the transmitted optical signal emitted through the first end of the wave splitter assembly 5172 are parallel to each other.
[0208] In some embodiments, the tilt angle of the first end of the wave splitting assembly 5172 is within a first preset range, so that a received optical signal including the first wavelength, the second wavelength, and the third wavelength incident on the wave splitting assembly 5172 can be separated into the first wavelength optical signal, the second wavelength optical signal, and the third wavelength optical signal by the wave splitting assembly 5172. By way of example, the first preset range is 8°±1°.
[0209] In some embodiments, the wave splitting assembly 5172 may include a substrate 51721. The substrate 51721 is a block substrate. A first end surface of the substrate 51721 is disposed corresponding to the first end of the light receiving component 500, and a second end surface of the substrate 51721 is disposed corresponding to the second end of the light receiving component 500, such that the substrate 51721 is disposed along the length of the light receiving component 500. The first end surface of the substrate 51721 may face the first lens 5171. The second end surface of the substrate 51721 may face the second connection hole 5131.
[0210] The first end surface of the substrate 51721 and the second end surface of the substrate 51721 are arranged in parallel, so that the optical signal incident on the substrate 51721 and the optical signal emitted through the substrate 51721 are parallel to each other.
[0211] The first end surface of the substrate 51721 may face the first lens 5171 , and the second end surface of the substrate 51721 may face the second connection hole 5131 , so that the substrate 51721 may be disposed along the horizontal direction of the first cavity.
[0212] In some embodiments, the wave splitting assembly 5172 may include a first wave plate 51722. The first wave plate 51722 may be disposed on a first end surface of the substrate 51721. The first wave plate 51722 may be located between the first lens 5171 and the substrate 51721. The first wave plate 51722 serves as a light input point for received light at the first end of the wave splitting assembly 5172. The first wave plate 51722 may allow both transmitted and received optical signals to pass therethrough.
[0213] The central axis of the first wave plate 51722 can coincide with the central axis of the first lens 5171 , so that the received light signal collimated by the first lens 5171 is incident on the first wave plate 51722 , and the transmitted light signal of the first wave plate 51722 can be focused and coupled by the first lens 5171 .
[0214] In some embodiments, the wave splitting assembly 5172 may include a second wave plate 51723. The second wave plate 51723 may be disposed on a first end surface of the substrate 51721. One side of the second wave plate 51723 may be connected to the first wave plate 51722. The second wave plate 51723 may allow for reflection of the received optical signal.
[0215] In some embodiments, the wave splitting assembly 5172 may include a third wave plate 51724. The third wave plate 51724 may be disposed on a first end surface of the substrate 51721. One side of the third wave plate 51724 may be connected to the other side of the second wave plate 51273. The third wave plate 51724 serves as a first light output port at the first end of the wave splitting assembly 5172.
[0216] In some embodiments, the third wave plate 51724 may be a low-pass filter that allows low-frequency signals to pass through and blocks high-frequency signals from passing through. For example, the third wave plate 51724 may allow a third wavelength optical signal to pass through and may also allow a second wavelength optical signal to reflect.
[0217] In some embodiments, the wave splitting assembly 5172 may include a fourth wave plate 51725. The fourth wave plate 51725 may be disposed on the second end surface of the substrate 51721. The fourth wave plate 51725 may be disposed opposite the first wave plate 51722. The fourth wave plate 51725 may be located between the substrate 51721 and the second connection hole 5131. The fourth wave plate 51725 serves as the entrance point for transmitted light at the second end of the wave splitting assembly 5172. The fourth wave plate 51725 may allow for reflection of received optical signals or transmission of transmitted optical signals.
[0218] The central axis of the fourth wave plate 51725 may coincide with the central axis of the second connection hole 5131 , so that the emission light signal incident on the first cavity through the second connection hole 5131 is incident on the fourth wave plate 51725 .
[0219] In some embodiments, the wave splitting assembly 5172 may include a fifth wave plate 51726. The fifth wave plate 51726 may be disposed on the second end surface of the substrate 51721. The fifth wave plate 51726 may be disposed opposite the second wave plate 51723. One side of the fifth wave plate 51726 may be connected to the fourth wave plate 51725. The fifth wave plate 51726 serves as the second light output port at the second end of the wave splitting assembly 5172.
[0220] In some embodiments, the fifth wave plate 51726 may be a bandpass filter that allows signals within a certain frequency range to pass through while blocking signals of other frequencies. For example, the fifth wave plate 51726 may allow a first wavelength optical signal to pass through, while also allowing a third wavelength optical signal and a second wavelength optical signal to reflect, that is, reflecting the third wavelength optical signal and the second wavelength optical signal to the third paddle 51724.
[0221] In some embodiments, the wave splitting assembly 5172 may include a sixth wave plate 51727. The sixth wave plate 51727 may be disposed on the second end surface of the substrate 51721. The sixth wave plate 51727 may be disposed opposite the third wave plate 51724. The sixth wave plate 51727 may be connected to the other side of the fifth wave plate 51726. The sixth wave plate 51727 serves as the third light output port at the second end of the wave splitting assembly 5172.
[0222] In some embodiments, the sixth wave plate 51727 may be a high-pass filter that allows high-frequency signals to pass through and blocks low-frequency signals from passing through. For example, the sixth wave plate 51727 may allow the second wavelength optical signal to transmit and may also allow the third wavelength optical signal to reflect.
[0223] The fourth wave plate 51725 , the fifth wave plate 51726 , and the sixth wave plate 51727 may be connected in sequence to shorten the length of the second end surface of the substrate 51721 .
[0224] In some embodiments, the center-to-center distance between any two of the fourth wave plate 51725, the fifth wave plate 51726, and the sixth wave plate 51727 is greater than a first preset value, thereby increasing the distance between the first wavelength optical signal transmitted by the fifth wave plate 51726 and the second wavelength optical signal transmitted by the sixth wave plate 51727, thereby improving isolation. For example, the first preset value is 1000 nm, and the center-to-center distance between any two of the fourth wave plate 51725, the fifth wave plate 51726, and the sixth wave plate 51727 is greater than 1000 nm.
[0225] The first wave plate 51722 , the second wave plate 51723 , and the third wave plate 51724 may be connected in sequence to reduce the length of the first end surface of the substrate 51721 .
[0226] Since the multiple wave plates on the first end surface of the substrate 51721 and the multiple wave plates on the second end surface of the substrate 51721 are arranged relative to each other, the center distance between any two wave plates among the first wave plate 51722, the second wave plate 51723 and the third wave plate 51724 is 1000 nm.
[0227] The third wave plate 51724 is located on the first end face of the substrate 51721, and the fifth wave plate 51726 and the sixth wave plate 51727 are located on the second end face of the substrate 51721, so that the emission direction of the optical signal transmitted through the third wave plate 51724 is opposite to the emission direction of the optical signal transmitted through the fifth wave plate 51726 or the optical signal transmitted through the sixth wave plate 51727, thereby improving the isolation.
[0228] As shown in FIG20 , in some embodiments, the receiving optical component 517 may include a first reflector 5173. The first reflector 5173 may be located on the output optical path of the fifth wave plate 51726 to reflect the optical signal transmitted through the fifth wave plate 51726. The first reflector 5173 may allow the first wavelength optical signal transmitted through the fifth wave plate 51726 to be reflected.
[0229] As shown in FIG20 , in some embodiments, the receiving optical component 517 may include a second reflector 5176. The second reflector 5176 may be located on the output optical path of the third wave plate 51724 to reflect the optical signal transmitted through the third wave plate 51726. The second reflector 5176 may allow the third wavelength optical signal transmitted through the third wave plate 51724 to be reflected.
[0230] As shown in FIG20 , in some embodiments, the receiving optical component 517 may include a third reflector 5175. The third reflector 5175 may be located on the output optical path of the sixth wave plate 51727 to reflect the optical signal transmitted through the sixth wave plate 51727. The third reflector 5175 may allow the second wavelength optical signal transmitted through the sixth wave plate 51727 to be reflected.
[0231] 20 , the light receiving assembly 517 may include a first filter 5177 . The first filter 5177 may be located on a reflected light path of the second reflector 5176 .
[0232] In some embodiments, the first filter 5177 can be mounted on the top of the first optical receiving component 530 to filter the optical signal so that the first optical receiving component 530 receives the third wavelength optical signal.
[0233] 20 , the light receiving assembly 517 may include a second filter 5178 . The second filter 5178 may be located on the reflected light path of the first reflector 5173 .
[0234] In some embodiments, the second filter 5178 can be mounted on the top of the second optical receiving component 520 to filter the optical signal so that the second optical receiving component 520 receives the first wavelength optical signal.
[0235] As shown in FIG20 , in some embodiments, the receiving optical component 517 may include a third filter 5174. The third filter 5174 may be located in the output optical path of the sixth wave plate 51727. The third filter 5174 may allow the optical signal transmitted by the sixth wave plate to pass through. For example, the third filter 5174 may allow the second wavelength optical signal to pass through.
[0236] In some embodiments, the third filter 5174 can be mounted on the top of the third optical receiving component 540 to filter the optical signal so that the third optical receiving component 540 receives the second wavelength optical signal.
[0237] In some embodiments, the third filter 5174 can be located between the sixth wave plate 51727 and the corresponding light receiving component, and the third filter 5174 is not connected to the corresponding light receiving component. For example, the third filter 5174 can be located between the sixth wave plate 51727 and the third light receiving component 540, and the third filter 5174 is not connected to the third light receiving component 540.
[0238] As shown in Figure 20, the light path is as follows:
[0239] The transmitted optical signal is sequentially transmitted through the fourth wave plate 51725 and the first wave plate 51722 , and then focused and coupled to the optical fiber adapter 700 by the first lens 5171 .
[0240] The received optical signal is first collimated by the first lens 5171, then transmitted through the first wave plate 51722, and then reflected by the fourth wave plate 51725 and the second wave plate 51723 before entering the fifth wave plate 51726. The first wavelength optical signal in the received optical signal is first transmitted through the fifth wave plate 51726, then reflected by the first reflector 5173, and then entered the second filter 5178.
[0241] The third wavelength optical signal in the received optical signal is first reflected by the fifth wave plate 51726 , then transmitted by the third wave plate 51724 , and finally reflected by the second reflector 5176 before entering the first filter 5177 .
[0242] The second wavelength optical signal in the received optical signal is first reflected by the fifth wave plate 51726 , then transmitted by the sixth wave plate 51727 , filtered again by the third filter 5174 , and finally reflected by the third reflector 5175 .

The first connection hole 5111 may cross the first side wall 511 so that the first connection hole 5111 can be connected to the inner cavity of the first cavity, thereby allowing the optical signal to be transmitted inside and outside the first cavity along the first connection hole 5111.
[0244] 21 , 22 , and 23 , in some embodiments, the first housing 510 may include a second sidewall 512 . One end of the second sidewall 512 may be connected to one end of the first sidewall 511 .

The third sidewall 513 may have a second connection hole 5131. The second connection hole 5131 may extend through the third sidewall 513 so as to communicate with the inner cavity of the first cavity, thereby allowing the transmitted light signal emitted by the light emitting component 400 to enter the first cavity along the second connection hole 5131.
[0246] As shown in Figures 19, 22, and 23, in some embodiments, the third sidewall 513 may have a first bearing surface 5132. The first bearing surface 5132 may be formed by an inward depression of the inner surface of the third sidewall 513. The first bearing surface 5132 may face the third connection hole 5141.
[0247] As shown in Figures 19, 22, and 23, in some embodiments, the third sidewall 513 may have a second bearing surface 5133.

The second bearing surface 5133 may face the fourth connection hole 5121 and the first connection hole 5111.
[0248] As shown in Figures 19, 22, and 23, in some embodiments, the third sidewall 513 may have a fifth bearing surface 5134. The fifth bearing surface 5134 may be formed by an inward depression of the inner surface of the third sidewall 513. The fifth bearing surface 5134 may be connected to the other end of the second bearing surface 5133. A second connection hole 5131 may be provided between the fifth bearing surface 5134 and the bottom plate of the first housing 510. The fifth bearing surface 5134 may face the first connection hole 5111.

The fourth sidewall 514 may be disposed opposite the second sidewall 512.
[0250] As shown in FIG. 21 , in some embodiments, the fourth sidewall 514 may have a third supporting surface 5143 . The third supporting surface 5143 may be a partial area of the inner surface of the fourth sidewall 514 .

The fourth supporting surface 5144 may be connected to or not connected to the third supporting surface 5143.
[0252] In some embodiments, the third supporting surface 5143 is tilted relative to the fourth supporting surface 5114 so that the third supporting surface 5413 can face the fifth connecting hole 5122.
[0253] As shown in Figures 18, 19, and 22, in some embodiments, the first housing 510 may include a bottom plate 5161. The bottom plate 5161 may be used to support the light receiving assembly 517. The bottom plate 5161 may be connected to the first side wall 511. The bottom plate 5161 may be connected to the second side wall 512. The bottom plate 5161 may be connected to the third side wall 513. The bottom plate 5161 may be connected to the fourth side wall 514.
[0254] In some embodiments, the bottom plate of the first housing 510 may have a reserved hole 518. The reserved hole 518 may traverse the bottom plate 5161 of the first housing 510. The reserved hole 518 may be located below the second bearing surface 5133 and the fifth bearing surface 5134, so that the reserved hole 518 can be arranged corresponding to the second bearing surface 5133 and the fifth bearing surface 5134, thereby facilitating the formation of the second bearing surface 5133 and the fifth bearing surface 5134.
[0255] The first side wall 511 , the second side wall 512 , the third side wall 513 and the fourth side wall 514 are sequentially connected and respectively connected to the bottom plate 5161 to form a first housing 510 having an opening. The opening of the first housing 510 may face the lower housing 202 .
[0256] As shown in Figures 21, 22, and 23, in some embodiments, the first housing 510 is recessed inward to form a receiving cavity 516. The receiving cavity 516 can be an inner cavity of the first cavity, such that the receiving cavity 516 can communicate with the first connection hole 5111, the second connection hole 5131, the third connection hole 5141, the fourth connection hole 5121, and the fifth connection hole 5122. The receiving cavity 516 can accommodate other components of the receiving light assembly 517 in addition to the first filter 5177 and the second filter 5178.
[0257] In some embodiments, the fourth connection hole 5121 and the fifth connection hole 5122 may be located on one side wall of the second side wall 512 and the fourth side wall 514, and the third connection hole 5141 may be located on the other side wall of the second side wall 512 and the fourth side wall 514. For example, the fourth connection hole 5121 and the fifth connection hole 5122 may be located on the second side wall 512, and the third connection hole 5141 may be located on the fourth side wall 514.
[0258] As shown in Figures 21, 22, and 23, the second side wall 512 may have a fourth connection hole 5121. The fourth connection hole 5121 may traverse the second side wall 512 so that the fourth connection hole 5121 can communicate with the inner cavity of the first cavity, thereby allowing the optical signal of the inner cavity of the first cavity to be incident on the optical receiving component connected to the fourth connection hole 5121. For example, the optical signal of the inner cavity of the first cavity can be incident on the second optical receiving component 520.
[0259] As shown in FIG. 21 and FIG. 23 , in some embodiments, the fourth connection hole 5121 may include a first sub-connection hole 51211 .

The size of the second sub-connection hole 51212 is smaller than that of the first sub-connection hole 51211.
[0261] One end of the second sub-connection hole 51212 can be connected to the inner cavity of the first shell 510, and the other end of the second sub-connection hole 51212 can be connected to the first sub-connection hole 51211, so that the fourth connection hole 5121 can be connected to the inner cavity of the first cavity.
[0262] As shown in Figures 21, 22, and 23, the second sidewall 512 may have a fifth connection hole 5122. The fifth connection hole 5122 may be closer to the first sidewall 512 than the fourth connection hole 5121. The fifth connection hole 5122 may traverse the second sidewall 512 so that the fifth connection hole 5122 can communicate with the inner cavity of the first cavity, thereby allowing the optical signal of the inner cavity of the first cavity to be incident on the optical receiving component connected to the fifth connection hole 5122. For example, the optical signal of the inner cavity of the first cavity can be incident on the first optical receiving component 530.
[0263] In some embodiments, the fourth connection hole 5121 is closer to the second connection hole 5131 than the fifth connection hole 5122 , so that the light receiving component placed in the fourth connection hole 5121 is closer to the light emitting component 400 than the light receiving component placed in the fifth connection hole 5122 .
[0264] As shown in FIG. 21 and FIG. 23 , in some embodiments, the fifth connection hole 5122 may include a third sub-connection hole 51221 .
[0265] As shown in Figures 21 and 23, in some embodiments, the fifth connection hole 5122 may include a fourth sub-connection hole 51222. One end of the fourth sub-connection hole 51222 may communicate with the inner cavity of the first housing 510. The other end of the fourth sub-connection hole 51222 may communicate with the third sub-connection hole 51221. The size of the fourth sub-connection hole 51222 is smaller than that of the third sub-connection hole 51221.
[0266] One end of the fourth sub-connection hole 51222 can be connected to the inner cavity of the first shell 510, and the other end of the fourth sub-connection hole 51222 can be connected to the third sub-connection hole 51221, so that the fifth connection hole 5122 can be connected to the inner cavity of the first cavity.
[0267] As shown in Figures 21, 22, and 23, in some embodiments, the second sidewall 512 may have a first step 5123. The first step 5123 may be located between the fourth connection hole 5121 and the fifth connection hole 5122. The first step 5123 can cause the surface of the area where the fifth connection hole 5122 is located to be at a different height than the surface of the area where the fourth connection hole 5121 is located. In other words, the depth of the fifth connection hole 5122 is different from the depth of the fourth connection hole 5121. This ensures that the light receiving components placed in the fifth connection hole 5122 and the fourth connection hole 5121 are both located within the corresponding connection holes, thereby improving the connection stability between the fifth connection hole 5122 and the fourth connection hole 5121 and their corresponding light receiving components. For example, the second light receiving component 520 is placed in the fourth connection hole 5121, and the first light receiving component 530 is placed in the fifth connection hole 5122. The first step 5123 causes the depth of the fifth connection hole 5122 to be greater than the depth of the fourth connection hole 5121.
[0268] As shown in Figures 21, 22, and 23, the fourth sidewall 514 may have a third connection hole 5141. The third connection hole 5141 may traverse the fourth sidewall 514 so that the third connection hole 5141 can communicate with the inner cavity of the first cavity, thereby allowing the optical signal of the inner cavity of the first cavity to be incident on the optical receiving component connected to the third connection hole 5141. For example, the optical signal of the inner cavity of the first cavity can be incident on the third optical receiving component 540.
[0269] In some embodiments, the central axis of the fourth connection hole 5121 is closer to the first connection hole 5131 than the central axis of the third connection hole 5141 , so that the optical receiving component placed in the fourth connection hole 5121 is closer to the optical fiber adapter 700 than the optical receiving component placed in the third connection hole 5141 .
[0270] As shown in Figures 19 and 23, in some embodiments, the fourth side wall 514 may have a second step 5142 so that the area where the third connecting hole 5141 in the fourth side wall 514 is located is recessed relative to other areas of the fourth side wall 514, thereby providing an accommodation space for the third light receiving component 540 inserted into the third connecting hole 5141 and increasing the strength of the first shell 510.
[0271] FIG24 is a cross-sectional view of a light receiving component provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. FIG25 is a cross-sectional view of a light receiving component provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure from another perspective. As shown in FIG24 and FIG25 , in some embodiments, the first lens 5171 can be located outside the first connection hole 5111, that is, within the accommodating cavity 516, to facilitate active coupling of the first lens 5171. Because the space of the accommodating cavity 516 is larger than the space of the first connection hole 5111, active coupling of the first lens 5171 is facilitated, reducing assembly difficulty.
[0272] In some embodiments, the first lens 5171 can be passively mounted in the first connection hole 5111 to reduce the volume of the first cavity.
[0273] As shown in Figures 24 and 25, in some embodiments, the second optical receiving component 520 can be located on the reflected light path of the first reflector 5173, and the first reflector 5173 faces the fifth wave plate 51726 and the second optical receiving component 520, so that the first wavelength optical signal transmitted by the fifth wave plate 51726 is reflected to the second optical receiving component 520 through the first reflector 5173.
[0274] As shown in Figures 24 and 25, in some embodiments, the first optical receiving component 530 can be located on the reflected light path of the second reflector 5176, and the second reflector 5176 faces the third wave plate 51724 and the first optical receiving component 530, so that the three-wavelength optical signal transmitted by the third wave plate 51724 is reflected to the first optical receiving component 530 through the second reflector 5176.
[0275] As shown in Figures 24 and 25, in some embodiments, the third optical receiving component 540 can be located on the reflected light path of the third reflector 5175, and the third reflector 5175 faces the sixth wave plate 51727 and the third optical receiving component 540, so that the second wavelength optical signal transmitted by the sixth wave plate 51727 is reflected to the third optical receiving component 540 through the third reflector 5175.
[0276] In some embodiments, the wavelength range of the first wavelength optical signal received by the second optical receiving component 520 is 1284-1288 nm, and the receiving rate of the second optical receiving component 520 is greater than the receiving rates of the first optical receiving component 530 and the third optical receiving component 540, resulting in the receiving photosensitive surface of the second optical receiving component 520 being smaller than the receiving photosensitive surfaces of the first optical receiving component 530 and the third optical receiving component 540, so that the transmission path of the first wavelength optical signal received by the second optical receiving component 520 is the shortest, and the optical receiving chip of the second optical receiving component 520 can receive the first wavelength optical signal with high coupling efficiency.
[0277] In some embodiments, the wavelength range of the first wavelength optical signal received by the second optical receiving component 520 is 1284-1288 nm, the wavelength range of the third wavelength optical signal received by the first optical receiving component 510 is 1260-1280 nm, and the wavelength range of the second wavelength optical signal received by the third optical receiving component 540 is 1290-1330 nm. The receiving rates of the second optical receiving component 520, the first optical receiving component 530 and the third optical receiving component 540 decrease successively, and the receiving photosensitive surfaces of the second optical receiving component 520, the first optical receiving component 530 and the third optical receiving component 540 increase successively, so that the transmission paths of the first wavelength optical signal, the second wavelength optical signal and the third wavelength optical signal increase successively, and the second optical receiving component 520, the first optical receiving component 530 and the third optical receiving component 540 can all receive the corresponding wavelength receiving optical signals with high efficiency.
[0278] As shown in Figures 22, 23, and 24, in some embodiments, the second light receiving assembly 520 can be placed in the fourth connection hole 5121. The second light receiving assembly 520 can be placed in the first sub-connection hole 51211, and the second filter 5178 on the second light receiving assembly 520 can be placed in the second sub-connection hole 51212.
[0279] As shown in Figures 24 and 25, in some embodiments, the first light receiving assembly 530 can be placed in the fifth connection hole 5122. The first light receiving assembly 530 is placed in the third sub-connection hole 51221, and the bracket 550 on the first light receiving assembly 530 is partially located in the third sub-connection hole 51221 and partially located in the fourth sub-connection hole 51222. The first filter 5177 on the bracket 550 is located in the fourth sub-connection hole 51222.
[0280] As shown in FIG. 24 and FIG. 25 , in some embodiments, the third light receiving assembly 540 may be disposed in the third connection hole 5141 .
[0281] As shown in Figures 22, 23 and 24, the first reflector 5173 can be supported on the second supporting surface 5133 so that the first reflector 5173 can face the fifth wave plate 51726 and the second optical receiving component 520 in the fourth connecting hole 5121, so that the first reflector 5173 can reflect the first wavelength optical signal to the second optical receiving component 520.
[0282] 22 and 25 , the first reflective sheet 5173 can rest on the fifth supporting surface 5134. The first reflective sheet 5173 rests on the second supporting surface 5133 and the fifth supporting surface 5134 to increase the contact area between the first reflective sheet 5173 and the first housing 510 and improve the connection stability between the first reflective sheet 5173 and the first housing 510.
[0283] As shown in Figures 21 and 24, the second reflective plate 5176 can be supported on the third supporting surface 5143 so that the second reflective plate 5176 can face the fifth connecting hole 5122, and then the second reflective plate 5176 can face the first optical receiving component 530 in the fifth connecting hole 5122, so that the second reflective plate 5176 can reflect the third wavelength optical signal to the first optical receiving component 530.
[0284] 23 and 25 , a side wall of the wave splitter assembly 5172 can be supported on the fourth supporting surface 5144 to facilitate bonding of the wave splitter assembly 5172 to the first housing 510. The fourth supporting surface 5144 can be located on the inner surface of the fourth side wall 514 or on the inner surface of the second side wall 512.
[0285] As shown in Figures 19, 22 and 24, the third reflector 5175 can be supported on the first supporting surface 5132 so that the third reflector 5175 can face the third connecting hole 5141, and then the third reflector 5175 can face the third optical receiving component 540 in the third connecting hole 5141, so that the third reflector 5175 can reflect the second wavelength optical signal to the third optical receiving component 540.
[0286] In some embodiments, the third reflector 5175 may include an incident surface, a reflective surface, and an exit surface. The incident surface is located between the sixth wave plate 51727 and the reflective surface, the exit surface is located between the third light receiving component 540 and the reflective surface, and the reflective surface is inclined relative to the incident surface. The second wavelength optical signal is incident on the third reflector 5175 through the incident surface, and is reflected by the reflective surface of the third reflector 5175 and then emitted through the exit surface.
[0287] In some embodiments, one side of the reflective surface may be connected to one side of the incident surface via a connecting surface.
[0288] In some embodiments, the other side of the reflective surface may be connected to one side of the emitting surface.

This can reduce the width of the third reflecting plate 5175 and increase the contact area between the third reflecting plate 5175 (the connecting surface of the third reflecting plate 5175) and the first supporting surface 5132, thereby improving the connection stability between the third reflecting plate 5175 and the first shell 510.
[0291] As shown in FIG. 22 and FIG. 24 , the third filter 5174 can be supported on the first supporting surface 5132 .
[0292] In some embodiments, the third filter 5174 may be located between the sixth wave plate 51717 and the third reflector 5175 to reduce the distance between the third reflector 5175 and the third light receiving assembly 540 , thereby reducing the width of the first housing 510 .
[0293] In some embodiments, the third filter 5174 is connected to the incident surface of the third reflector 5175 so that the third filter 5174 is in contact with the third reflector 5175 , thereby reducing the length of the first shell 510 .
[0294] As shown in Figures 23, 24 and 25, in some embodiments, the central axis of the fourth connecting hole 5121 is closer to the first connecting hole 5131 relative to the central axis of the third connecting hole 5141, which not only reduces the interference between the first reflector 5173 and the third reflector 5175, but also provides a placement space for the third filter 5174, and also reduces the width of the first shell 510.
[0295] After the wavelength splitting component 5172 splits the received optical signal into a first wavelength optical signal, a second wavelength optical signal, and a third wavelength optical signal, the optical path is shown in FIG24 . The first wavelength optical signal is reflected by the first reflector 5173 to the second filter 5178, filtered by the second filter 5178, and then incident on the second optical receiving component 520; the third wavelength optical signal is reflected by the second reflector 5176 to the first filter 5177 for filtration, and then incident on the first optical receiving component 530; the second wavelength optical signal is filtered by the third filter 5174, and then incident on the third reflector 5175, and reflected by the third reflector 5175 to the third optical receiving component 540.

[0441] Figure 46 is an exploded schematic diagram (I) of another optical emitting component provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 47 is an exploded schematic diagram (II) of another optical emitting component provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 46 and 47, in some embodiments, the second cavity may include a sixth connection hole 4121. The sixth connection hole 4121 may extend through a side wall of the second cavity near the optical receiving component 500, so that optical signals within the second cavity can be transmitted to the optical receiving component 500 through the sixth connection hole 4121.
[0442] In some embodiments, the second cavity may include a seventh connection hole 4131. The seventh connection hole 4131 may be used to insert one of the at least one optical transmission assembly to connect the at least one optical transmission assembly to the second cavity.

[0443] In some embodiments, the second cavity may include an eighth connection hole 4145. The eighth connection hole 4145 may be used to insert another light emitting assembly in the at least one light emitting assembly to connect the other light emitting assembly in the at least one light emitting assembly to the second cavity.

[0444] In some embodiments, the second cavity may include a ninth connection hole 4151. Ninth connection hole 4151 may be used to insert another light emitting assembly in the at least one light emitting assembly, thereby connecting the at least one light emitting assembly to the second cavity. For example, ninth connection hole 4151 may be used to insert third light emitting assembly 403, thereby connecting third light emitting assembly 403 to the second cavity.
[0445] The seventh connection hole 4131, the eighth connection hole 4145, and the ninth connection hole 4151 are respectively located on different side walls of the second cavity to reduce the size of the second cavity. For example, the seventh connection hole 4131 is located on the second side wall of the second cavity, the eighth connection hole 4145 is located on the third side wall of the second cavity, and the ninth connection hole 4151 is located on the fourth side wall of the second cavity.
[0446] As shown in FIG. 46 and FIG. 47 , in some embodiments, the second cavity may include a second cover plate 420 .
[0447] As shown in Figures 46 and 47, in some embodiments, the second cavity may include a second housing 410. A second cover plate 420 may be attached to the second housing 410 to form the second cavity. An optical transmitter assembly 404 may be disposed within the second cavity. The optical transmitter assembly 404 may be located in the output optical path of at least one optical transmitter assembly, so that at least one optical signal emitted by the at least one optical transmitter assembly can be transmitted through the optical transmitter assembly 404.
[0448] Figure 48 is an exploded view of a light emitting assembly according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 49 is a cross-sectional view of a light emitting assembly according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 50 is a diagram of a light emitting path according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 48, 49, and 50, in some embodiments, light emitting assembly 404 may include a first reflective-transmissive sheet 4043.
[0449] The first reflective-transmissive sheet 4043 allows transmission of optical signals of a single wavelength. The first reflective-transmissive sheet 4043 can be located in the output optical path of one of the at least one optical emitting assembly to transmit the optical signal of the single wavelength emitted by the at least one optical emitting assembly. For example, the first reflective-transmissive sheet 4043 can be located in the output optical path of the first optical emitting assembly 402 to transmit the optical signal of a fourth wavelength emitted by the first optical emitting assembly 402 through the first reflective-transmissive sheet 4043.
[0450] The first reflective-transmissive sheet 4043 can allow reflection of optical signals of another wavelength. The first reflective-transmissive sheet 4043 can be located in the output optical path of another optical transmitting assembly in the at least one optical transmitting assembly to reflect the optical signal of the other wavelength emitted by the other optical transmitting assembly in the at least one optical transmitting assembly. For example, the first reflective-transmissive sheet 4043 can be located in the output optical path of the second optical transmitting assembly 401 to reflect the optical signal of the fifth wavelength emitted by the second optical transmitting assembly 401 through the first reflective-transmissive sheet 4043.
[0451] As shown in FIG. 48 , FIG. 49 and FIG. 50 , in some embodiments, the emitting light assembly 404 may include a second reflective-transmissive sheet 4042 .
[0452] The second reflective-transmissive plate 4042 allows optical signals of one wavelength to pass through. The second reflective-transmissive plate 4042 can be located on the transmission light path of the first reflective-transmissive plate 4043 so that the optical signals of one wavelength that have passed through the first reflective-transmissive plate 4043 can be transmitted out through the first reflective-transmissive plate 4043.
[0453] The second reflective-transmissive plate 4042 allows light signals of another wavelength to pass through. The second reflective-transmissive plate 4042 can be located on the reflection light path of the first reflective-transmissive plate 4043 so that the light signals of another wavelength reflected by the first reflective-transmissive plate 4043 can be transmitted through the second reflective-transmissive plate 4042 .
[0454] The second reflective-transmissive sheet 4042 can allow reflection of an optical signal of a further wavelength. The second reflective-transmissive sheet 4042 can be located in the output optical path of another optical transmitting assembly among the at least one optical transmitting assembly, so that the optical signal of the further wavelength emitted by the further optical transmitting assembly among the at least one optical transmitting assembly is reflected off the second reflective-transmissive sheet 4042. For example, the second reflective-transmissive sheet 4042 can be located in the output optical path of the third optical transmitting assembly 403, so that the optical signal of the sixth wavelength emitted by the third optical transmitting assembly 403 is reflected off the second reflective-transmissive sheet 4042.
[0455] Taking the example of the first reflective-transmissive sheet 4043 transmitting the fourth wavelength optical signal emitted by the first optical emitting assembly 402 and reflecting the fifth wavelength optical signal emitted by the second optical emitting assembly 401, and the second reflective-transmissive sheet 4042 reflecting the sixth wavelength optical signal emitted by the third optical emitting assembly, the optical path of the optical emitting component 400 is described. As shown in Figure 50, the optical path is as follows:
[0456] The fourth wavelength optical signal is emitted through the first optical transmission component 402, and is transmitted through the first reflective-transmissive plate 4043 and the second reflective-transmissive plate 4042 before being emitted. The fifth wavelength optical signal is emitted through the second optical transmission component 401, and is reflected by the first reflective-transmissive plate 4043, and is transmitted through the second reflective-transmissive plate 4042 before being emitted. The sixth wavelength optical signal is emitted through the third optical transmission component 403, and is reflected through the second reflective-transmissive plate 4042 before being emitted.
[0457] The coupling margin of the fourth wavelength optical signal is smaller than that of the fifth wavelength optical signal and the sixth wavelength optical signal. The fourth wavelength optical signal emitted by the first optical transmitting assembly 402 is sequentially transmitted through the first reflective and transmissive plate 4043 and the second reflective and transmissive plate 4042 before being emitted to improve coupling efficiency.
[0458] 47 and 50 , in some embodiments, the second housing 410 may include a bottom plate 411. The bottom plate 411 may be used to support the device.
[0459] As shown in Figures 47 and 50, in some embodiments, the second housing 410 may include a first sidewall 412. The bottom of the first sidewall 412 may be connected to the bottom plate 411. The first sidewall 412 may be connected to the light receiving component 500. The first sidewall 412 may have a sixth connection hole 4121. The sixth connection hole 4121 may pass through the first sidewall 412. The sixth connection hole 4121 may communicate with the inner cavity of the second cavity, thereby allowing the transmission light signal emitted by the light emitting component 400 to be transmitted to the light receiving component 500 through the sixth connection hole 4121.
[0460] As shown in Figures 47 and 50, in some embodiments, the second housing 410 may include a second sidewall 413. The bottom of the second sidewall 413 may be connected to the base plate 411. One end of the second sidewall 413 may be connected to one end of the first sidewall 412. The second sidewall 413 may have a seventh connection hole 4131. The seventh connection hole 4131 may extend through the second sidewall 413. The seventh connection hole 4131 may communicate with the inner cavity of the second cavity, so that the optical signal emitted by the optical transmission component placed in the seventh connection hole 4131 can be incident on the inner cavity of the second cavity. For example, the optical signal of the fifth wavelength emitted by the second optical transmission component 401 is incident on the inner cavity of the second cavity.
[0461] In some embodiments, the seventh connection hole 4131 may face one side of the first reflective-transmissive sheet 4043 , so that the fifth wavelength optical signal emitted by the second optical transmission assembly 401 placed in the seventh connection hole 4131 may be reflected by the first reflective-transmissive sheet 4043 .

Figure 54 is an exploded view of a fiber optic adapter and a transceiver cavity according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 55 is a cross-sectional view of a fiber optic adapter and a transceiver cavity according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 53, 54, and 55, in some embodiments, a fiber optic adapter 700 is disposed on a first side of a transceiver cavity 510. One end of the fiber optic adapter 700 is used to connect to an optical fiber, and the other end of the fiber optic adapter 700 communicates with the transceiver cavity 510, enabling optical connection of the transceiver cavity 510 to the optical fiber through the fiber optic adapter 700.

The fourth lens 5174 disposed within the first connection hole 5111 saves space within the transceiver cavity 510 that would otherwise be occupied by the fourth lens 5174, helping to reduce the size of the optical receiving component 500 and facilitating assembly of the optical receiving component 500 within the optical module.

As shown in FIG58 , in some embodiments, the second optical assembly 517 includes a first displacement prism 5171, a first optical filter 5172, a second displacement prism 5173, a fourth lens 5174, a first reflector 5175, a wave splitter 5176, a second optical filter 5177, a third displacement prism 5178, and a fourth displacement prism 5179. The fourth lens 5174 is located in the first connecting hole 5111, and the first displacement prism 5171, the first optical filter 5172, the second displacement prism 5173, the first reflector 5175, the wave splitter 5176, the second optical filter 5177, the third displacement prism 5178, and the fourth displacement prism 5179 are located in the accommodating cavity 516.
[0513] The first port of the first storage slot 5161 and the second port of the first storage slot 5161 do not overlap on the Y-axis. To adjust the position of the optical signal on the Y-axis so that the optical signal propagates from the first port of the first storage slot 5161 to the second port of the first storage slot 5161, in some embodiments, a first displacement prism 5171 is disposed within the first storage slot 5161. The optical signal enters the first displacement prism 5171 through the incident surface of the first displacement prism 5171. The optical signal is reflected from the first reflection surface of the first displacement prism 5171 to the second reflection surface of the first displacement prism 5171. The optical signal is then reflected from the second reflection surface of the first displacement prism 5171 to the exit surface of the first displacement prism 5171, and then exits through the exit surface of the first displacement prism 5171.
[0514] In some embodiments, a first optical filter 5172 is disposed on the first supporting surface 5167, covering the second port of the first storage slot 5161. The signal light output by the light emitting component 400 is transmitted to the first optical filter 5172. The first optical filter 5172 is configured to transmit the optical signal output by the light emitting component 400 and transmit it to the second displacement prism 5173. The first optical filter 5172 is also configured to reflect the optical signal output from the second displacement prism 5173 to the first reflector 5175. Exemplarily, the first surface of the first optical filter 5172 faces the second displacement prism 5173, and the second surface of the first filter 5172 rests on the first supporting surface 5167.
[0515] In some embodiments, the second displacement prism 5173 is used to adjust the position of the optical signal in the Y direction of the transceiver housing to accommodate the optical module's requirements for the assembly position of the fiber optic adapter 700 and to provide sufficient space for the installation of the first reflector 5175 and the first filter 5172. The optical signal enters the second displacement prism 5173 through its incident surface. The optical signal is reflected from its first reflective surface to its second reflective surface. The optical signal is then reflected from its second reflective surface to its exit surface, where it is emitted.
[0516] For transmitted optical signals, the incident surface of the second displacement prism 5173 refers to the side of the second displacement prism 5173 facing the first optical filter 5172, and the exit surface of the second displacement prism 5173 refers to the side of the second displacement prism 5173 facing the fourth lens 5174. For received optical signals, the incident surface of the second displacement prism 5173 refers to the side of the second displacement prism 5173 facing the fourth lens 5174, and the exit surface of the second displacement prism 5173 refers to the side of the second displacement prism 5173 facing the first optical filter 5172.
[0517] In some embodiments, the second displacement prism 5173 is located at the edge of the first connection hole 5111, so that the optical signal passing through the first connection hole 5111 is transmitted to the second displacement prism 5173, and the optical signal output by the second displacement prism 5173 is transmitted to the first connection hole 5111. Exemplarily, the first side surface of the second displacement prism 5173 abuts against the first side wall of the accommodating cavity body 5163 (i.e., the inner side wall of the first transceiver side plate 511), or the first side surface of the second displacement prism 5173 is sealedly connected to the first connection hole 5111.
[0518] In some embodiments, the first side surface of the second displacement prism 5173 is perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to the central axis of the first connecting hole 5111, so that the optical signal incident on the first side surface of the second displacement prism 5173 through the first connecting hole 5111 is transmitted perpendicularly or approximately perpendicularly to the first side surface of the second displacement prism 5173, and the optical signal output from the first side surface of the second displacement prism 5173 can be transmitted to the first connecting hole 5111 along the central axis of the first connecting hole 5111.
[0519] In some embodiments, a first reflector 5175 is disposed within the second storage slot 5162 and is configured to reflect the optical signal reflected by the first filter 5172 to the wave splitter 5176. To facilitate the first reflector 5175 reflecting the optical signal to the wave splitter 5176, the first reflector 5175 is disposed at an angle within the first accommodating cavity, that is, the reflective surface of the first reflector 5175 is non-parallel to the second side surface of the second displacement prism 5173 and the angle between the two is less than 90°.
[0520] In some embodiments, a side wall of the second storage slot 5162 is the inner side wall of the fourth transceiver side panel 514. A first support member 5141 is attached to the inner side wall of the fourth transceiver side panel 514. The first side wall of the first support member 5141 is attached parallel to the inner side wall of the fourth transceiver side panel 514. The second side wall of the first support member 5141 is perpendicular to the first side wall of the first support member 5141. The third side wall of the first support member 5141 is connected to the first side wall and the second side wall of the first support member 5141 at both ends, respectively. The third side wall of the first support member 5141 is an inclined surface, i.e., one end of the third side wall of the first support member 5141 is closer to the first side wall of the first support member 5141 than the other end of the third side wall of the first support member 5141. For example, a first reflector 5175 is attached to the third side wall of the first support member 5141.
[0521] In some embodiments, the side of the splitter 5176 rests on the second support surface 5168 , and the side of the splitter 5176 contacts the positioning notch 51681 , and the positioning notch 51681 facilitates the positioning and assembly of the splitter 5176 .
[0522] In some embodiments, a wave splitter 5176 is disposed at the bottom of the housing cavity body 5163, with the light incident side of the wave splitter 5176 facing the first reflector 5175 and the light splitting output side of the wave splitter 5176 facing the second transceiver side panel 512. The wave splitter 5176 is configured to split the optical signal reflected by the first reflector 5175 according to wavelength. Exemplarily, the wave splitter 5176 splits a beam of optical signals including a fourth wavelength, a fifth wavelength, and a sixth wavelength into three beams according to wavelength.
[0523] In some embodiments, a third displacement prism 5178 is disposed in the second accommodating cavity 5165, and the first wavelength optical signal output by the wave splitter 5176 is transmitted to the third displacement prism 5178. A fourth displacement prism 5179 is disposed in the third accommodating cavity 5166, and the third wavelength optical signal output by the wave splitter 5176 is transmitted to the fourth displacement prism 5179. The third displacement prism 5178 and the fourth displacement prism 5179 are used to adjust the position of the optical signal in the X direction of the transceiver housing, so that the optical signal split by the wave splitter 5176 can be transmitted to the corresponding first optical receiving assembly 520, second optical receiving assembly 530, and third optical receiving assembly 540.
[0524] In some embodiments, multiple second filters are disposed within the second and third accommodating cavities 5165 and 5166, such as a second filter disposed at the output end of the third displacement prism 5178 and a second filter disposed at the output end of the fourth displacement prism 5179. The second filters are used to filter the optical signal before it enters the corresponding optical receiving component, reducing noise in the corresponding wavelength optical signal and ensuring the quality of optical signal reception. For example, a second filter 5177 is disposed within the third storage slot 5164 and is located at the end of the third connecting hole 5122. The second filter 5177 is located at the light input front end of the second optical receiving assembly 530. The second filter 5177 is used to filter out noise in the optical signal about to enter the second optical receiving assembly 530, thereby improving the quality of the light entering the second optical receiving assembly 530.
[0525] As shown in Figure 58, the emission light signal output by the light emitting component 400 is first adjusted in position in the Y direction by the first displacement prism 5171 and then incident on the first filter 5172, then incident on the second displacement prism 5173 through the first filter 5172, and then adjusted in position in the Y direction by the second displacement prism 5173 and incident on the fourth lens 5174, and finally converged by the fourth lens 5174.
[0526] A beam of received optical signals including the fourth wavelength, the fifth wavelength and the sixth wavelength is first collimated by the fourth lens 5174 and then transmitted to the second displacement prism 5173. Then, the position in the Y direction is adjusted by the second displacement prism 5173 and then incident on the first filter 5172. Then, the received optical signals are reflected by the first filter 5172 again and transmitted to the first reflector 5175. Then, the received optical signals are reflected by the first reflector 5175 and transmitted to the wavelength splitter 5176. Finally, the received optical signals are split into the first wavelength optical signal, the second wavelength optical signal and the third wavelength optical signal according to the wavelength of the optical signals by the wavelength splitter 5176.
[0527] The light signal is reflected by the first reflection surface of the second displacement prism 5173 to the second reflection surface of the second displacement prism 5173 , and then reflected by the second reflection surface of the second displacement prism 5173 to the exit surface of the second displacement prism 5173 , and then emitted through the exit surface of the second displacement prism 5173 .
[0528] The first wavelength optical signal is transmitted to the incident surface of the third displacement prism 5178. The optical signal passes through the incident surface of the third displacement prism 5178 and is incident on the first reflection surface of the third displacement prism 5178. The optical signal is reflected from the first reflection surface of the third displacement prism 5178 to the second reflection surface of the third displacement prism 5178. The optical signal is reflected from the second reflection surface of the third displacement prism 5178 to the exit surface of the third displacement prism 5178. The optical signal is emitted from the exit surface of the third displacement prism 5178 to the first light receiving component 520. The second wavelength optical signal passes through the second filter 5177 and is transmitted to the second light receiving component 530. The third wavelength optical signal is transmitted to the incident surface of the fourth displacement prism 5179. The optical signal passes through the incident surface of the fourth displacement prism 5179 and is incident on the first reflection surface of the fourth displacement prism 5179. The optical signal is reflected by the first reflection surface of the fourth displacement prism 5179 to the second reflection surface of the fourth displacement prism 5179. The optical signal is reflected by the second reflection surface of the fourth displacement prism 5179 to the exit surface of the fourth displacement prism 5179. The optical signal is emitted through the exit surface of the fourth displacement prism 5179 to the third optical receiving component 540.
[0529] The first wavelength optical signal is transmitted to the first optical receiving component 520, the second wavelength optical signal is transmitted to the second optical receiving component 530, and the third wavelength optical signal is transmitted to the third optical receiving component 540. Of course, in some embodiments, the optical signal transmitted to the first optical receiving component 520 is not limited to the first wavelength optical signal and may also include optical signals of other wavelengths, but is mainly the first wavelength optical signal; the optical signal transmitted to the second optical receiving component 530 is not limited to the second wavelength optical signal and may also include optical signals of other wavelengths, but is mainly the second wavelength optical signal; the optical signal transmitted to the third optical receiving component 540 is not limited to the third wavelength optical signal and may also include optical signals of other wavelengths, but is mainly the third wavelength optical signal.
[0530] In some embodiments, the wavelength of the first wavelength optical signal is smaller than the wavelength of the second wavelength optical signal, and the wavelength of the second wavelength optical signal is smaller than the wavelength of the third wavelength optical signal. For example, the wavelength range of the first wavelength optical signal received by the first optical receiving component 520 is 1260-1280 nm, such as the wavelength of the first wavelength optical signal is 1270 nm; the wavelength range of the second wavelength optical signal received by the second optical receiving component 530 is 1284-1288 nm, such as the wavelength of the second wavelength optical signal is 1286 nm; and the wavelength range of the third wavelength optical signal received by the third optical receiving component 540 is 1290-1330 nm, such as the wavelength of the third wavelength optical signal is 1310 nm.
[0531] The first optical receiving assembly 520, the second optical receiving assembly 530, and the third optical receiving assembly 540 each include a photodetector, which is used to receive optical signals and convert them into electrical signals. In some embodiments, the receiving rate of the photodetector in the second optical receiving assembly 530 is greater than the receiving rate of the photodetector in the first optical receiving assembly 520, and the receiving rate of the photodetector in the second optical receiving assembly 530 is greater than the receiving rate of the photodetector in the third optical receiving assembly 540. This ensures that the second wavelength optical signal with the highest transmission rate has the shortest and simplest optical path from the output of the demultiplexer 5176 to the photodetector, allowing the photodetector in the second optical receiving assembly 530 to receive the optical signal with high coupling efficiency. For example, the receiving rate of the photodetector in the first optical receiving assembly 520 is 10G, the receiving rate of the photodetector in the second optical receiving assembly 530 is 50G, and the receiving rate of the photodetector in the third optical receiving assembly 540 is 2.5G.
[0532] In some embodiments, one end of the light emitting component 400 is connected to the second sub-transceiver side panel 5134, and one side of the light emitting component 400 is close to the first sub-transceiver side panel 5133, so that the light emitting component 400 is located at the avoidance corner of the transceiver shell, thereby making the assembly of the light emitting component 400 and the light receiving component 500 more compact, effectively reducing the overall size of the light emitting component 400 and the light receiving component 500.
[0533] In addition to the structure of the optical emitting component disclosed in the above embodiment, the optical module provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure also includes another optical emitting component structure, which includes a first laser component, a second laser component, and a third laser component, wherein the first laser component emits a first wavelength optical signal, the second laser component emits a second wavelength optical signal, and the third laser component emits a third wavelength optical signal, which is the same as the optical emitting component in the above embodiment. The difference is that this example uses a polarization component and a polarization combining component to combine the first wavelength optical signal, the second wavelength optical signal, and the third wavelength optical signal, and then transmits the combined optical signal to the optical fiber adapter through the above-mentioned optical receiving component.

The light window is embedded within the third through hole 4211 to seal the third through hole 4211; the light window can be made of transparent glass. The light window seals the third through hole 4211, allowing the transmitted light signal to pass through while also sealing the third through hole 4211 to ensure the sealing performance of the transmitting housing 402.

[0540] In some embodiments, the first optical component 403 further includes a lens component 432 , which is disposed on the optical path from the laser component 431 to the combiner component for collimating the optical signal generated by the laser component 431 and transmitting it to the combiner component.
[0541] In some embodiments, the first optical component 403 further includes a combining component, which is used to combine multiple optical signals of different wavelengths emitted by the laser component 431 into one transmitted optical signal.
[0542] As shown in Figures 59, 60, and 61, in some embodiments, the second end of the transmitting housing 402 is provided with multiple jacks 4234. The multiple jacks 4234 include a first jack and a second jack. The first jack is closer to the bottom of the transceiver housing 402. The first jack is used to insert a first transmitting pin, and the second jack is used to insert a second transmitting pin, thereby reducing signal crosstalk between the first transmitting pin and the second transmitting pin. The first transmitting pin is a rate-related transmitting pin 405, and the second transmitting pin is a rate-independent transmitting pin 405.
[0543] As shown in Figures 59 and 60, in some embodiments, a first soldering pad 406 is further provided at the second end of the launch shell 402, one end of the first soldering pad 406 is welded to the first launch pin located on the first socket, and the other end of the first soldering pad 406 is wired to the soldering pad where the laser component 431 is located.
[0544] In some embodiments, the first optical component 403 is fixed in the emission cavity through the substrate 404, and the soldering pad where the laser component 431 is located is connected to the first soldering pad 406 by wire bonding, so that the soldering pad where the laser component 431 is located is flush with the height of the first soldering pad 406, thereby shortening the wire bonding length between the soldering pad where the laser component 431 is located and the first soldering pad 406.
[0545] In some embodiments, the launch housing 402 has an opening. For example, the launch housing 402 includes a first launch side panel 421, a second launch side panel 422, a third launch side panel 423, a fourth launch side panel 424, and a launch bottom panel 425.

The first sub-launching side panel 4231 is connected to the launching base panel 425. The distances between the first sub-launching side panel 4231, the second sub-launching side panel 4232 and the third sub-launching side panel 4233 and the launching base panel 425 increase successively. The first sub-launching side panel 4231, the second sub-launching side panel 4232 and the third sub-launching side panel 4233 are connected successively so that the third launching side panel 423 is stepped.

The second sub-transmitting side panel 4232 and the third sub-transmitting side panel 4233 are stepped, so as to extend the distance between the first jack and the second jack in the length direction of the transmitting shell 402, reduce the distance between the first jack and the second jack in the height direction of the transmitting shell 402, and thereby reduce the signal crosstalk between the first transmitting pin inserted into the first jack and the second transmitting pin inserted into the second jack.

[0554] In some embodiments, the light-emitting end faces of the first laser assembly 4311, the second laser assembly 4312 and the third laser assembly 4313 are not flush, that is, the light-emitting end faces of the first laser assembly 4311, the second laser assembly 4312 and the third laser assembly 4313 are located on different length surfaces of the emitting shell.
[0555] In some embodiments, first laser assembly 4311, second laser assembly 4312, and third laser assembly 4313 utilize a chip-on-carrier (COC) package, which can also be referred to as chip-on-ceramic substrate (CPC).

[0558] In some embodiments, the wavelength combining component includes a plurality of optical filters, which cooperate with each other to combine the optical signal of the first wavelength, the optical signal of the second wavelength, and the optical signal of the third wavelength into one optical signal.
[0559] In some embodiments, the combining assembly includes a polarization assembly 433 and a polarization combining assembly 434. Polarization assembly 433 is used to adjust the polarization direction of the optical signal, and polarization combining assembly 434 combines multiple polarized beams into a single beam. The polarization assembly adjusts the polarization direction of the optical signal, and then combines the multiple polarized beams into a single beam by the polarization combining assembly, thereby achieving wave combining in the optical emitting component.
[0560] As shown in FIG62 , in some embodiments, the polarization component 433 includes a first polarization component 4331, a second polarization component 4332, and a third polarization component 4333. The first polarization component 4331 is located in the light-emitting direction of the first laser assembly 4311 and is used to adjust the deflection direction of the fourth wavelength optical signal emitted by the first laser assembly 4311 so that the polarization direction of the fourth wavelength optical signal is horizontal, i.e., horizontally polarized light. The second polarization component 4332 is located in the light-emitting direction of the second laser assembly 4312 and is used to adjust the deflection direction of the fifth wavelength optical signal emitted by the second laser assembly 4312 so that the polarization direction of the fifth wavelength optical signal is vertical, i.e., second vertically polarized light. The third polarization component 4333 is located in the light-emitting direction of the third laser assembly 4313 and is used to adjust the deflection direction of the sixth wavelength optical signal emitted by the third laser assembly 4313 so that the polarization direction of the sixth wavelength optical signal is vertical, i.e., first vertically polarized light.
[0561] As shown in Figure 62, in some embodiments, the polarization combiner 434 includes a first polarization combiner 4341, a second polarization combiner 4342 and a third polarization combiner 4343. The first polarization combiner 4341 is located on the left side of the first polarization component 4331. The first polarization combiner 4341 is located between the third through hole 4211 and the first polarization component 4331. The first polarization combiner 4341 is used to transmit the horizontal polarized light (horizontally polarized light) of the fourth wavelength optical signal, and is also used to reflect the vertical polarized light (second vertical polarized light) of the fifth wavelength optical signal and the vertical polarized light (first vertical polarized light) of the sixth wavelength optical signal, and then combine the three into one optical signal. The second polarization combiner 4342 is located to the left of the second polarization component 4332. The second polarization combiner 4342 is configured to reflect the vertically polarized light (second vertically polarized light) of the fifth wavelength optical signal to the first polarization combiner 4341, and to transmit the vertically polarized light (first vertically polarized light) of the sixth wavelength optical signal to the first polarization combiner 4341. The third polarization combiner 4343 is located to the left of the third polarization component 4333. The third polarization combiner 4343 is configured to reflect the vertically polarized light (first vertically polarized light) of the sixth wavelength optical signal to the second polarization combiner 4342.
[0562] In some embodiments, the first polarization combining element 4341 is a polarization beam splitter, which can transmit horizontally polarized light and reflect vertically polarized light to achieve beam combining. For example, the first vertically polarized light and the second vertically polarized light are reflected by the polarization beam splitter, while the horizontally polarized light is transmitted by the polarization beam splitter to achieve beam combining.
[0563] In some embodiments, the second polarization combiner 4342 is a filter that can reflect the fifth wavelength optical signal and transmit the sixth wavelength optical signal to achieve beam combining. The second polarization combiner 4342 is tilted relative to the central axis of the second polarization component 4332. For example, the angle between the second polarization combiner 4342 and the central axis of the second polarization component 4332 is 45°.
[0564] In some embodiments, the third polarization combiner 4343 is a reflector that reflects the sixth wavelength optical signal. The third polarization combiner 4343 is tilted relative to the central axis of the third polarization component 4333. For example, the angle between the third polarization combiner 4343 and the central axis of the third polarization component 4333 is 45°.
[0565] The polarization component 433 and the polarization combining component 434 shown in Figure 62 are placed in the transmitting shell 402. The third through hole 4211 of the transmitting shell 402 is coaxial with the third polarization combining component 4343. The opening of the transmitting shell 402 is facing downward in the opposite direction to the opening of the transceiver shell.
[0566] As shown in FIG63 , in some embodiments, a first polarization component 4331 is used to adjust the deflection direction of the fourth wavelength optical signal emitted by the first laser assembly 4311 so that the polarization direction of the fourth wavelength optical signal is vertical, i.e., first vertical polarization. A second polarization component 4332 is used to adjust the deflection direction of the fifth wavelength optical signal emitted by the second laser assembly 4312 so that the polarization direction of the fifth wavelength optical signal is vertical, i.e., second vertical polarization. A third polarization component 4333 is used to adjust the deflection direction of the sixth wavelength optical signal emitted by the third laser assembly 4313 so that the polarization direction of the sixth wavelength optical signal is horizontal, i.e., horizontal polarization.
[0567] As shown in FIG63 , in some embodiments, a third polarization combiner 4343 is located between the third through-hole 4211 and the third polarization component 4333. The first polarization combiner 4341 is configured to reflect the vertically polarized light (first polarized light) of the fourth wavelength optical signal to the second polarization combiner 4342. The second polarization combiner 4342 is configured to reflect the vertically polarized light (second vertical polarized light) of the fifth wavelength optical signal to the third polarization combiner 4343, and further configured to transmit the vertically polarized light (first polarized light) of the fourth wavelength optical signal to the third polarization combiner 4343. The third polarization combiner 4343 is configured to transmit the horizontally polarized light (horizontally polarized light) of the sixth wavelength optical signal and reflect the vertically polarized light (first polarized light) of the fourth wavelength optical signal and the vertically polarized light (second vertical polarized light) of the fifth wavelength optical signal to achieve beam combining.
[0568] In some embodiments, the first polarization combiner 4341 is a reflector that reflects the fourth wavelength optical signal. The first polarization combiner 4341 is tilted relative to the central axis of the first polarization component 4331. For example, the angle between the first polarization combiner 4341 and the central axis of the first polarization component 4331 is 45°.
[0569] In some embodiments, the second polarization combiner 4342 is a filter that can reflect the fifth wavelength optical signal and transmit the fourth wavelength optical signal to achieve beam combining. The second polarization combiner 4342 is tilted relative to the central axis of the second polarization component 4332. For example, the angle between the second polarization combiner 4342 and the central axis of the second polarization component 4332 is 45°. In some embodiments, the third polarization combiner 4343 is a polarization beam splitter that can transmit horizontally polarized light and reflect vertically polarized light to achieve beam combining. For example, the first vertically polarized light and the second vertically polarized light are reflected by the polarization beam splitter, and the horizontally polarized light is transmitted by the polarization beam splitter to achieve beam combining.
[0570] The polarization component 433 and the polarization combining component 434 shown in Figure 63 are placed in the transmitting shell 402. The third through hole 4211 of the transmitting shell 402 is coaxial with the third polarization combining component 4343. The opening direction of the transmitting shell 402 is the same as the downward direction of the opening of the transceiver shell.
[0571] As shown in FIG62 , the fourth wavelength optical signal emitted by the first laser assembly 4311 is transmitted to the first lens 4321, collimated by the first lens 4321, and transmitted to the first polarization component 4331. The polarization direction of the fourth wavelength optical signal is adjusted by the first polarization component 4331 before being transmitted to the first polarization combiner 4341. The fifth wavelength optical signal emitted by the second laser assembly 4312 is transmitted to the second lens 4322, collimated by the second lens 4322, and transmitted to the second polarization component 4332. The polarization direction of the fifth wavelength optical signal is adjusted by the second polarization component 4332 before being transmitted to the second polarization combiner 4342. The sixth wavelength optical signal emitted by the third laser assembly 4313 is transmitted to the third lens 4323, collimated by the third lens 4323, and transmitted to the third polarization component 4333. The polarization direction of the sixth wavelength optical signal is adjusted by the third polarization component 4333 before being transmitted to the third polarization combiner 4343. The third polarization combiner 4343 reflects the vertically polarized light of the sixth wavelength optical signal to the second polarization combiner 4342. The second polarization combiner 4342 reflects the vertically polarized light of the fifth wavelength optical signal to the first polarization combiner 4341 and transmits the vertically polarized light of the sixth wavelength optical signal to the first polarization combiner 4341. The first polarization combiner 4341 transmits the horizontally polarized light of the fourth wavelength optical signal and reflects the vertically polarized light of the fifth wavelength optical signal and the sixth wavelength optical signal, so that the horizontally polarized light of the fourth wavelength optical signal, the vertically polarized light of the fifth wavelength optical signal, and the vertically polarized light of the sixth wavelength optical signal are combined into one optical signal.
[0572] As shown in FIG64 , after the horizontally polarized light of the fourth wavelength optical signal, the vertically polarized light of the fifth wavelength optical signal, and the sixth wavelength optical signal are combined into a beam of optical signals, the optical signal is first adjusted in the Y direction by the first displacement prism 5171 and then incident on the first filter 5172. Then, the optical signal is incident on the second displacement prism 5173 through the first filter 5172. Then, the optical signal is adjusted in the Y direction by the second displacement prism 5173 and incident on the fourth lens 5174. Finally, the optical signal is converged by the fourth lens 5174.
[0573] Figure 65 is a schematic diagram of the optical axis of the wave plate, the polarization direction of the incident light signal, and the polarization direction of the outgoing light signal provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 65, a is the polarization direction of the incident light signal, b is the optical axis of the first wave plate, and c is the polarization direction of the outgoing light signal. Figure A is a schematic diagram of the polarization direction of the outgoing light signal obtained after the incident light signal with a polarization direction of 45° passes through the wave plate, which is horizontal. Figure B is a schematic diagram of the polarization direction of the outgoing light signal obtained after the incident light signal with a polarization direction of 135° passes through the wave plate, which is horizontal. Figure C is a schematic diagram of the polarization direction of the outgoing light signal obtained after the incident light signal with a polarization direction of 45° passes through the wave plate, which is vertical. Figure C is a schematic diagram of the polarization direction of the outgoing light signal obtained after the incident light signal with a polarization direction of 135° passes through the wave plate, which is vertical. As shown in Figure 65, in some embodiments, the wave plate is a half-wave plate, and the incident linearly polarized light emits linearly polarized light after passing through the half-wave plate. The characteristic of a half-wave plate is that the polarization direction of the incident light and the polarization direction of the outgoing light are symmetrical with respect to the optical axis of the half-wave plate.
[0574] The following only uses the polarization component 433 and the polarization combining component 434 shown in Figure 62 as an example to introduce the beam combining principle of the optical emitting component. Since the optical signal after the polarization combining component combines includes a vertical polarization state and a horizontal polarization state, if a structural component for reverse isolation is provided after the polarization combining component, then at least two isolators need to be provided after the polarization combining component to achieve the reverse isolation effect. Therefore, an isolator can be provided before the polarization combining component. Since the isolator includes a first polarizer, a Faraday plate, and a second polarizer, an isolator is provided before the polarization combining component, and the optical signal emits non-horizontally polarized light and non-vertically polarized light after passing through the isolator. In order to make the optical signal emit horizontally polarized light or vertically polarized light after passing through the polarization component, it is necessary to add a wave plate after the second polarizer. Non-horizontally polarized light emits horizontally polarized light after passing through the wave plate, and non-vertically polarized light emits horizontally polarized light or vertically polarized light after passing through the wave plate. The reverse isolation principle of the isolator is as follows: the Faraday plate rotates in the same direction, and the polarized light passing through the first polarizer cannot return to the first polarizer after the Faraday rotation, so that the isolator composed of the first polarizer, the Faraday plate and the second polarizer has a reverse isolation effect.
[0575] In some embodiments, the first polarization component 4331, the second polarization component 4332 and the third polarization component 4333 all include a first polarizer, a Faraday plate, a second polarizer and a wave plate. The first polarizer, the Faraday plate, the second polarizer and the wave plate are sequentially away from the first laser component. The fourth wavelength light signal emitted by the first laser component passes through the first polarizer, the Faraday plate, the second polarizer and the wave plate in sequence and is emitted. The angle between the optical axis of the wave plate and the horizontal plane is a preset angle, so that the light signal with the same polarization direction as the second polarizer is adjusted to horizontal polarized light or vertical polarized light after passing through the wave plate. For example, the angle between the optical axis of the wave plate of the first polarization component 4331 and the horizontal plane is a first preset angle, so that the light signal with the same polarization direction as the second polarizer is adjusted to horizontal polarized light after passing through the wave plate; the angle between the optical axis of the wave plate of the second polarization component 4332 and the horizontal plane is a second preset angle, so that the light signal with the same polarization direction as the second polarizer is adjusted to vertical polarized light after passing through the wave plate; the angle between the optical axis of the wave plate of the third polarization component 4333 and the horizontal plane is a third preset angle, so that the light signal with the same polarization direction as the second polarizer is adjusted to vertical polarized light after passing through the wave plate.
[0576] The first preset angle is different from the second preset angle. The polarization direction of the second polarizer of the second polarization assembly is the same as the polarization direction of the second polarizer of the third polarization assembly, so that the second preset angle is the same as the third preset angle.
[0577] In some embodiments, the first polarizer is a horizontal polarizer, and the second polarizer is a 45° polarizer. For example, the first polarization component 4331 includes a horizontal polarizer, a Faraday plate, and a 45° polarizer, the second polarization component 4332 includes a horizontal polarizer, a Faraday plate, and a 45° polarizer, and the third polarization component 4333 includes a horizontal polarizer, a Faraday plate, and a 45° polarizer.
[0578] In some embodiments, the first polarizer is a vertical polarizer, and the second polarizer is a 135° polarizer. For example, the first polarization assembly 4331 includes a vertical polarizer, a Faraday plate, and a 135° polarizer; the second polarization assembly 4332 includes a vertical polarizer, a Faraday plate, and a 135° polarizer; and the third polarization assembly 4333 includes a vertical polarizer, a Faraday plate, and a 135° polarizer. In some embodiments, the first polarizer, the Faraday plate, and the second polarizer are sequentially connected to form an isolator, with the wave plate located outside the isolator and mounted on the substrate 404. For example, the horizontal polarizer, the Faraday plate, and the 45° polarizer are sequentially connected to form an isolator; the vertical polarizer, the Faraday plate, and the 135° polarizer form an isolator. In some embodiments, the first polarizer, the Faraday plate, and the second polarizer are sequentially bonded using glue.
[0579] In some embodiments, a first polarizer, a Faraday plate, a second polarizer, and a wave plate are sequentially connected to form an isolator. This not only facilitates the mounting of the wave plate but also reduces the space required for the transmitter housing. For example, a horizontal polarizer, a Faraday plate, a 45° polarizer, and a wave plate are sequentially connected to form an isolator; a vertical polarizer, a Faraday plate, a 135° polarizer, and a wave plate are sequentially connected to form an isolator. In some embodiments, the first polarizer, Faraday plate, second polarizer, and wave plate are sequentially bonded using glue.
[0580] Since the structures of the first polarization component 4331, the second polarization component 4332 and the third polarization component 4333 are the same, only the optical axis angles of the wave plates are slightly different. Instead of introducing each polarization component in detail, only the first polarization component 4331 and the second polarization component 4332 are used as examples to introduce the polarization components.
[0581] Taking the first polarization assembly 4331 as an example, the first polarization assembly 4331 includes a horizontal polarizer, a Faraday plate, a 45° polarizer, and a first wave plate. The horizontal polarizer, Faraday plate, 45° polarizer, and first wave plate are sequentially positioned away from the first laser assembly 4311. After passing through the horizontal polarizer, Faraday plate, and 45° polarizer, the optical signal emits 45° polarized light. As shown in A of FIG65 , 45° polarized light (i.e., an incident light signal with a 45° polarization direction) is polarized by the first wave plate to obtain horizontal polarized light (i.e., an outgoing light signal with a horizontal polarization direction). The optical axis of the first wave plate is obtained by rotating the polarization direction of the incident light signal clockwise by 22.5°. That is, the angle between the optical axis of the first wave plate and the horizontal plane is a first preset angle of 22.5°.
[0582] In some embodiments, a horizontal polarizer, a Faraday plate, and a 45° polarizer are sequentially connected to form a fourth isolator, and the first wave plate is located outside the fourth isolator. In some embodiments, a horizontal polarizer, a Faraday plate, a 45° polarizer, and the first wave plate are sequentially connected to form a first isolator.
[0583] In some embodiments, the first polarization assembly 4331 includes a vertical polarizer, a Faraday plate, a 135° polarizer, and a first wave plate. The vertical polarizer, Faraday plate, 135° polarizer, and first wave plate are sequentially positioned away from the first laser assembly 4311. After the optical signal passes through the vertical polarizer, Faraday plate, and 135° polarizer, it emits 135° polarized light. As shown in FIG65B , the 135° polarized light (i.e., the incident light signal with a 135° polarization direction) is polarized by the first wave plate to produce horizontally polarized light (i.e., the outgoing light signal with a horizontal polarization direction). The optical axis of the first wave plate is obtained by rotating the polarization direction of the incident light signal counterclockwise by 22.5°. That is, the angle between the optical axis of the first wave plate and the horizontal plane is a first predetermined angle, which is 157.5°. In some embodiments, the vertical polarizer, Faraday plate, and 135° polarizer are sequentially connected to form a fourth isolator, and the first wave plate is located outside the fourth isolator.
[0584] In some embodiments, a vertical polarizer, a Faraday plate, a 135° polarizer, and a first wave plate are sequentially connected to form a first isolator.
[0585] The above configuration does not consider adjusting the magnetic poles of the first or fourth isolators. If the magnetic poles of the fourth isolator are adjusted, the fourth isolator includes a vertical polarizer, a Faraday plate, and a 45° polarizer. If the magnetic poles of the first isolator are adjusted, the first isolator includes a vertical polarizer, a Faraday plate, a 45° polarizer, and a first wave plate. The first wave plate's optical axis forms an angle of 22.5° with the horizontal plane.
[0586] Taking the second polarization assembly 4332 as an example, the second polarization assembly 4332 includes a horizontal polarizer, a Faraday plate, a 45° polarizer, and a second wave plate. The horizontal polarizer, Faraday plate, 45° polarizer, and second wave plate are sequentially positioned away from the second laser assembly 4312. After the optical signal passes through the horizontal polarizer, Faraday plate, and 45° polarizer, it emits 45° polarized light. As shown in C in FIG65 , the 45° polarized light (i.e., the incident light signal with a 45° polarization direction) is polarized by the second wave plate to obtain vertically polarized light (i.e., the outgoing light signal with a vertical polarization direction). The optical axis of the second wave plate is obtained by rotating the polarization direction of the incident light signal counterclockwise by 22.5°. That is, the angle between the optical axis of the second wave plate and the horizontal plane is a second predetermined angle of 67.5°. In some embodiments, the horizontal polarizer, Faraday plate, and 45° polarizer are sequentially connected to form a fifth isolator, and the second wave plate is located outside the fifth isolator.
[0587] In some embodiments, a horizontal polarizer, a Faraday plate, a 45° polarizer, and a second wave plate are sequentially connected to form a second isolator.
[0588] In some embodiments, the second polarization assembly 4332 includes a vertical polarizer, a Faraday plate, a 135° polarizer, and a second wave plate. The vertical polarizer, Faraday plate, 135° polarizer, and second wave plate are sequentially positioned away from the second laser assembly 4312. After the optical signal passes through the vertical polarizer, Faraday plate, and 135° polarizer, it emits 135° polarized light. As shown in D of FIG65 , the 135° polarized light (i.e., the incident light signal with a 135° polarization direction) is polarized by the second wave plate to obtain vertically polarized light (i.e., the outgoing light signal with a vertical polarization direction). The optical axis of the second wave plate is obtained by rotating the polarization direction of the incident light signal clockwise by 22.5°. That is, the angle between the optical axis of the second wave plate and the horizontal plane is a second predetermined angle, which is 112.5°.
[0589] In some embodiments, a vertical polarizer, a Faraday plate, and a 135° polarizer are sequentially connected to form a fifth isolator, and the second wave plate is located outside the fifth isolator. In some embodiments, a vertical polarizer, a Faraday plate, a 135° polarizer, and a second wave plate are sequentially connected to form a second isolator.
[0590] The above configuration does not consider adjusting the magnetic poles of the second or fifth isolators. If the magnetic poles of the fifth isolator are adjusted, the fifth isolator will include a vertical polarizer, a Faraday plate, and a 45° polarizer. If the magnetic poles of the second isolator are adjusted, the second isolator will include a vertical polarizer, a Faraday plate, a 45° polarizer, and a second wave plate. The angle between the optical axis of the second wave plate and the horizontal plane is 67.5°.
[0591] The third polarization component 4333 may include a sixth isolator and a third wave plate, or may include a third isolator, wherein the third isolator includes a third wave plate, and the angle between the third wave plate and the horizontal plane is a third preset angle. The third polarization component 4333 and the second polarization component 4332 both function to adjust the deflection direction of the optical signal so that the polarization direction of the optical signal is vertical. Therefore, the sixth isolator is the same as the fifth isolator, and the third isolator is the same as the second isolator, and they will not be repeated here. The sixth isolator is the same as the fifth isolator, which means that the sixth isolator can be any embodiment of the fifth isolator; the third isolator is the same as the second isolator, which means that the third isolator can be any embodiment of the second isolator.
[0592] Figure 66 is a decomposition diagram of the supporting member, the second polarization combining member and the third polarization combining member provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG66 , a supporting member 407 is further provided on the substrate 404. One side of the supporting member 407 supports the third polarization combiner 4343, and the other side of the supporting member 407 supports the second polarization combiner 4342. The third polarization combiner 4343 is arranged parallel to the second polarization combiner 4342. The supporting member 407 is provided with a first through hole, one end of which is connected to the third polarization combiner 4343, and the other end of the first through hole is directed toward the third polarization component 4333, so that the vertically polarized light of the sixth wavelength optical signal emitted by the third polarization component 4333 is incident on the third polarization combiner 4343 through the first through hole. The supporting member 407 is also provided with a second through hole, one end of which is connected to the second polarization combiner 4342, and the other end of the second through hole is connected to the third polarization combiner 4343, so that the sixth wavelength optical signal reflected by the third polarization combiner 4343 is reflected to the second polarization combiner 4342 through the second through hole.
[0593] Figure 67 is a structural diagram of a supporting member provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 68 is a structural diagram of a supporting member provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure from another perspective. Figure 69 is a cross-sectional view of a supporting member provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 67, 68 and 69, in some embodiments, the side surface of the supporting member 407 includes a first limiting surface 471, a first supporting surface 472, a second limiting surface 473, a first connecting surface 474, a second connecting surface 475, a third limiting surface 476, a second supporting surface 477, a third connecting surface and a fourth connecting surface, and the first limiting surface 471, the first supporting surface 472, the second limiting surface 473, the first connecting surface 474, the second connecting surface 475, the third limiting surface 476, the second supporting surface 477, the third connecting surface and the fourth connecting surface are connected in sequence. The first supporting surface 472 supports the third polarization combining component 4343, and the first limiting surface 471, the first supporting surface 472 and the second limiting surface 473 are connected in sequence to form a recessed limiting groove to limit the third polarization combining component 4343; the first connecting surface 474 is in contact and connected with the fourth sub-emitting side plate 4241 of the fourth emitting side plate 424, and the second connecting surface 475 faces the third polarization component 4333; the second supporting surface 477 supports the second polarization combining component 4342, and the third limiting surface 476 is connected to the second supporting surface 477 to form a recessed limiting groove to limit the second polarization combining component 4342.
[0594] In some embodiments, the first supporting surface 472 and the second supporting surface 477 are arranged in parallel to ensure that the vertically polarized light of the sixth wavelength optical signal reflected by the third polarization combiner 4343 is reflected to the second polarization combiner 4342 as much as possible.
[0595] As shown in Figures 67, 68 and 69, one end of the first through hole 478 is located at the second connecting surface 475, the other end of the first through hole 478 is located at the first supporting surface 472, one end of the second through hole 479 is located at the first supporting surface 472, and the other end of the second through hole 479 is located at the second supporting surface 477. The first through hole 478 is connected to the second through hole 479, so that the third polarization combiner 4343 receives the vertical polarized light of the sixth wavelength optical signal through the first through hole 478, and reflects the vertical polarized light of the sixth wavelength optical signal to the second polarization combiner 4342 through the second through hole 479.
[0596] Since the optical module provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure needs to be frequently plugged in and out of the host computer during use, in order to avoid the problem that the unlocking component of the optical module is not applicable due to the long linear movement distance between the pull ring and the optical module when the pull ring of the unlocking component of the optical module applies force in the direction of pulling out the optical module, causing interference with other components in some equipment, the optical module provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure can effectively solve the problem that the unlocking component of the optical module is not applicable. The specific structure of the optical module can be understood with reference to the following example.
[0597] Figure 70 is a partial schematic diagram of the connection between an unlocking component and an upper housing according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 71 is a partial exploded schematic diagram of an unlocking component and an upper housing according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 70 and 71, the cover plate 2011 of the upper housing 201 is provided with a matching protrusion 2013 on its surface, which engages with a corresponding component on the cage.
[0598] The upper shell 201 is provided with a clamping shaft and a mounting seat 220 . The unlocking component 600 includes a pull ring 610 and an unlocking member 620 .
[0599] The pull ring 610 is arranged on the outer wall of one end of the shell surrounded by the upper shell and the lower shell, and the pull ring 610 is provided with an axial hole, and the card shaft is installed in the axial hole. When the pull ring is pulled from the electrical port to the optical port, the pull ring 610 rotates along the card shaft. The unlocking member 620 is movably arranged in the mounting seat 220, and has a locked position and an unlocked position during the movement relative to the mounting seat. Specifically, when the unlocking member is in the locked position, the matching protrusion is buckled with the matching buckle on the cage. At this time, the optical module is matched with the cage, and the entire optical module cannot be removed. When the unlocking member is in the unlocking position, the unlocking member can drive the end of the matching buckle to lift, so that the matching buckle moves along the surface of the matching protrusion and separates from the matching protrusion to release the buckling relationship, so that the optical module can be separated from the cage, thereby realizing the unlocking of the optical module.
[0600] In some embodiments, to better enable the mating protrusion 2013 to fit within the mating buckle, a snap groove 2014 is provided on the surface of the cover 2011. The surface of the snap groove 2014 is recessed relative to the surface of the cover 2011, toward the lower housing. The mating protrusion 2013 is positioned within the snap groove 2014, such that the bottom of the snap groove 2014 is lower than the surface of the cover 2011. The profile area of the mating buckle is smaller than the bottom area of the snap groove 2014. When the unlocking member is in the locked position, the mating buckle is completely positioned within the snap groove 2014.
[0601] In some embodiments, the mating protrusion 2013 is a triangular protrusion structure that can be snapped into place with the annular mating buckle on the cage to fix the position of the optical module relative to the cage, ensuring stable operation of the optical module. From left to right, the height of the mating protrusion 2013 gradually decreases to reduce friction between the mating buckle and the mating protrusion during movement from right to left, thereby preventing the mating buckle from abutting against the step caused by the different heights.
[0602] In some embodiments, the triangular protrusion, from left to right, is shaped like an inverted triangle, with one corner of the triangular protrusion pointing toward the electrical port. The shape of the mating buckle matches the shape of the triangular protrusion. The corners of the triangular protrusion are chamfered in an arc shape, making the connection between the triangular protrusion and the mating buckle smoother and reducing friction between the mating buckle and the mating protrusion.
[0603] Figure 72 is a schematic diagram of an exploded view of a pull ring provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 73 is a schematic diagram of a pull ring provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure from a second angle. Figures 72 and 73 show the pull ring from different angles. As shown in Figures 72 and 73, the pull ring 610 includes a pull ring body 611 and a pull ring kit 612. The pull ring body 611 is a sealed or semi-sealed annular structure, and the pull ring kit 612 is sleeved on one side arm of the pull ring body 311. The type of optical module can be distinguished by setting a mark on the pull ring kit 612. For example, the mark set on the pull ring kit 612 can be distinguished by color or letter.
[0604] The pull ring body 611 includes a first arm 6111, a second arm 6112, a third arm 6113, and a fourth arm 6114, which are connected end to end, and a bent portion 6115 located on the first arm 6111. To reduce the space occupied by the optical module and enhance the strength of the pull ring body 611, the width of each arm of the pull ring body 611 is greater than its thickness.
[0605] The first arm 6111 and the third arm 6113 are positioned opposite each other, while the second arm 6112 and the fourth arm 6114 are positioned opposite each other. When the unlocking member is in the unlocked position, to reduce the space occupied by the optical module, the second arm 6112 and the fourth arm 6114 are located on the outer walls of the two side panels of the upper housing. The first arm 6111611 is located at the optical port, and the width of the first arm 6111611 is distributed vertically along the outer wall of the optical module. The third arm 6113 is located on the outer wall of the support plate 2016. In some embodiments, the first arm 6111 and the third arm are arranged perpendicularly, and the third arm 6113 is located on the outer wall of the support plate 2016, reducing the space occupied by the optical module in the left and right directions.
[0606] The bent portion 6115 is located on the sidewall of the first arm 6111 and between the second arm 6112 and the fourth arm 6114. The second arm and the fourth arm can protect the bent portion 6115.
[0607] The lower surface of the bent portion 6115 is higher than the lower surface of the first arm 6111, positioning the bent portion 6115 above the cover. A gap exists between the lower surface of the bent portion 6115 and the upper surface of the cover. The second arm 6112 has a first axial hole 6117, and the fourth arm 6114 has a second axial hole 6118. The centerline of the first and second axial holes 6117 and 6118 is flush with the surface of the cover 3011, ensuring that the pull ring 610 maintains balance during rotation and reducing friction between the pull ring 610 and the surface of the upper housing 201.
[0608] In some embodiments, the bent portion 6115 includes a curved component 61151 and a reinforcing component 61152. The curved component 61151 is located between the first arm 6111 and the reinforcing component 61152 and has an arcuate shape. When the unlocking member is in the locked position, the reinforcing component 61152 is attached to the optical port, and the left end of the unlocking member 620 contacts the reinforcing component 61152. The reinforcing component 61152 is perpendicular to the cover plate 2011. The first arm 6111 is located to the left of the reinforcing component 61152. The reinforcing component is parallel to the first arm.
[0609] In some embodiments, both the first arm 6111 and the reinforcement component 61152 are plate-like structures, and a gap may be provided between the first arm 6111 and the reinforcement component 61152. To increase the strength of the pull ring and prevent deformation during unlocking, the gap between the first arm 6111 and the reinforcement component 61152 may be filled with reinforcing material.
[0610] During unlocking, the pull ring is pulled upward and to the left, causing the first arm 6111 and the bent portion 6115 to move downward and to the right around the axis of rotation. The contact point between the pull ring 610 and the unlocking member 620 gradually shifts from the reinforcing member 61152 to the curved member 61151, pushing the unlocking member 620 to the right. The curved member 61151 makes the unlocking process smoother and reduces jamming.
[0611] When the unlocking member is in the unlocked position, the reinforcement member 61152 is arranged parallel to the cover plate 2011, and the first arm 6111 is located above the reinforcement member 61152. In some embodiments, the third arm 6113 can be a single piece of sheet material or formed from two sheets of sheet material. As shown in FIG72 , the third arm 6113 is formed from two sheets of sheet material and has an arm gap 6116. The pull ring assembly 612 is mounted on the surface of the third arm 6113, and the pull ring assembly 612 covers the arm gap 6116.
[0612] In some embodiments, the width of the arm gap 6116 is smaller than the width of the housing gap 2015, and the pull ring assembly 612 covers the arm gap 6116, and the pull ring assembly 612 covers the housing gap 2015. In some embodiments, the upper right corner of the second arm 6112 is provided with a first chamfer 614. The first chamfer is arc-shaped, which allows for smoother sliding between the second arm 6112 and the cover plate when the pull ring is pulled upward to the left, reducing sticking. In some embodiments, the upper right corner of the fourth arm 6114 is provided with a second chamfer 613. The third chamfer is arc-shaped, which allows for smoother sliding between the fourth arm 6114 and the cover plate when the pull ring is pulled upward to the left, reducing sticking.
[0613] Figure 74 is a schematic diagram of the first angle of view of an unlocking member provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 75 is a schematic diagram of the second angle of view of an unlocking member provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figures 74 and 75 illustrate the unlocking member from different angles. As shown in Figures 74 and 75, the unlocking member 620 includes an unlocking body 621, an unlocking guide, and a spring compression portion.
[0614] The first end of the unlocking member 621 is in contact with the pull ring, and the second end of the unlocking member 621 is located in the buckle groove 2014. When the unlocking member is in the locked position, the second end of the unlocking member 621 is located to the left of the mating buckle. During the unlocking process, the pull ring is pulled upward and to the left, causing the first arm 6111 and the bent portion 6115 to move downward and to the right around the axis of rotation. The contact point between the pull ring 610 and the first end of the unlocking member 620 gradually moves from the reinforcing component 61152 to the curved component 61151, pushing the second end of the unlocking member 620 under the mating buckle, raising the mating buckle and disengaging the mating buckle from the mating protrusion.
[0615] In some embodiments, a first elastic sheet guide portion 6211 and a second elastic sheet guide portion 6212 are provided at the second end of the unlocking body 621 , and an avoidance groove 6213 is provided between the first elastic sheet guide portion 6211 and the second elastic sheet guide portion 6212 .
[0616] In some embodiments, the first spring clip guide portion 6211 has an inclined first guide slope 62111, and the inclination direction of the first guide slope is toward the right. The first guide slope 62111 of the first spring clip guide portion 6211 causes the thickness of the first spring clip guide portion 6211 to gradually increase from right to left. The right side of the first spring clip guide portion 6211 is thinner, which facilitates insertion into the gap formed by the mating buckle and the upper cover 3011 during the unlocking process. The left side of the first spring clip guide portion 6211 is thicker than the maximum thickness of the matching protrusion 2013. To facilitate unlocking and prevent the mating buckle from tilting during the lifting process, the first spring clip guide portion 6211 and the second spring clip guide portion 6212 have the same inclined slope.
[0617] The rightmost end of the first guide slope 62111 of the first spring sheet guide part 6211 is provided with a reinforced section, which is perpendicular to the surface of the cover plate, so that the thickness of the rightmost end of the first spring sheet guide part 6211 is increased, thereby increasing the thickness of the first spring sheet guide part 6211 when the first spring sheet guide part 6211 initially contacts the mating buckle during the unlocking process, thereby preventing the first spring sheet guide part 6211 from bending.
[0618] In some embodiments, the second spring clip guide portion 6212 has an inclined second guide slope 62121, and the inclination direction of the guide slope is toward the right. The second guide slope 62121 causes the thickness of the first spring clip guide portion 6211 to gradually increase from right to left. The right side of the first spring clip guide portion 6211 is thinner, which facilitates insertion into the gap formed by the mating buckle and the upper cover plate 3011 during the unlocking process. The left side of the first spring clip guide portion 6211 is thicker than the maximum thickness of the mating protrusion 2013. To facilitate unlocking and prevent the mating buckle from tilting during the lifting process, the first spring clip guide portion 6211 and the second spring clip guide portion 6212 have the same inclined slope.
[0619] The rightmost end of the second guide slope 62121 of the second spring sheet guide part 6212 is provided with a reinforced section, which is perpendicular to the surface of the cover plate, so that the thickness of the rightmost end of the second spring sheet guide part 6212 is increased, and the thickness of the second spring sheet guide part 6212 is increased when the second spring sheet guide part 6212 initially contacts the mating buckle during the unlocking process, thereby preventing the second spring sheet guide part 6212 from bending or breaking.
[0620] The width of the relief groove 6213 is greater than the side length of the mating protrusion 6213. In the unlocked position, the mating protrusion 6213 fits between the first spring guide 6211 and the second spring guide 6212, lifting both ends of the mating buckle and facilitating unlocking. The width of the relief groove 6213 is the distance between the first spring guide 6211 and the second spring guide 6212.
[0621] In some embodiments, a first unlocking guide portion 6221 is provided on a side wall of the unlocking body 621. The first unlocking guide portion 6221 protrudes outward from the side wall of the unlocking body 621. The length of the first unlocking guide portion 6221 is shorter than the length of the unlocking body 621, and the upper surface of the first unlocking guide portion 6221 is lower than the upper surface of the unlocking body 621, so that the first unlocking guide portion 6221 slides within the first fixing portion.
[0622] The first spring compression portion 6231 is located outside the first unlocking guide portion 6221. The first spring compression portion 6231 protrudes outward relative to the side wall of the unlocking body 621. The length of the first spring compression portion 6231 is shorter than the length of the first unlocking guide portion 622.
[0623] For example, the left end of the first spring compression portion 6231 is flush with the left end of the first unlocking guide portion 6221. For example, to ensure that the forces on both sides of the unlocking body 621 are balanced during the unlocking process, the unlocking body 621 is further provided with a second unlocking guide portion 6222 and a second spring compression portion 6232.
[0624] A second unlocking guide 6222 is provided on the other side wall of the unlocking body 621. The second unlocking guide 6222 protrudes outward from the side wall of the unlocking body 621. The length of the second unlocking guide 6222 is shorter than that of the unlocking body 621, and the upper surface of the second unlocking guide 6222 is lower than the upper surface of the unlocking body 621, so that the second unlocking guide 6222 slides within the second fixing portion.
[0625] The second spring compression portion 6232 is located outside the second unlocking guide portion 6222. The second spring compression portion 6232 protrudes outward relative to the side wall of the unlocking body 621. The length of the second spring compression portion 6232 is shorter...
