Problems solved by technology

However, limited by the size of the space and the bending angle, coupled with the fact that the light emitted by the fiber optic indicator light is a light source that emits light at the end, the space for its diffusion is limited, and the visual range of the fiber optic indicator light is therefore limited.

Abstract

The invention discloses an optical fiber indicator light comprising an optical fiber and a light guide structure. The light guide structure comprises a channel and an air chamber which is connected with the channel, wherein, the optical fiber is received in the channel, and an optical fiber endpoint of the optical fiber is arranged in the air chamber. The light guide structure is provided with a luminous surface and a sunken surface, wherein the sunken surface faces to the air chamber, and light emitted by the optical fiber is diffused outward through the sunken face of the light guide structure so as to improve a visual area of the optical fiber.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical fiber indicator light and a light guiding structure for the optical fiber indicator light. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of information technology, the application of computer products is becoming more and more popular. In particular, various forms of peripheral devices, such as hard disk drives, floppy disk drives, and optical drives, are the basic equipment of almost every computer product. For example, a hard disk is a very important data storage device in computer products. More and more computer products are equipped with more than two hard disks, and an indicator light for each hard disk becomes an indispensable device. In order to install or remove the hard disk conveniently and safely, each hard disk is placed in a hard disk tray, and the hard disk indicator light is generally placed in a proper position of the corresponding hard disk tray. [0003] In the prior art, a light guide ...
