AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This technology uses a special tool called crimper rings that hold an inner layer (optical fibers) inside another material like rubber or plastic. These tools help make it easier for connectors to securely join them properly when they shouldn't fall out during normal usage conditions. They also have a tube-like design made up of two parts: a jacket around its own core, and an overwrap covering this jacket. To install these components correctly, there needs some skill but can only achieve certain results if done carefully by skilled workers who work alongside each other.

Problems solved by technology

This patents describes different types of lens used when connecting optics together: traditional LC type connections have limitations because they cannot move around inside certain spaces without being affected negatively; while more flexible LC plugs allow movement within these areas. Additionally, there exist special cases where older versions were difficult to fix properly during installation.

Abstract

The invention relates to an optical fiber connecting device, in particular to an LC-type short-tail heat-shrink-tube-free optical fiber moving connector which comprises an inserting core, a connecting member, a spring, a tail sleeve, a shell, an optical cable bare fiber and a pressing-connecting ring. The head end of the connecting member is connected with the shell, the tail end of the connecting member is connected with the tail sleeve, the shell and the connecting member form a cavity, the spring and the inserting core are disposed in the cavity, one end of the optical cable bare fiber is fixed to the inserting core while the other end of the same penetrates the cavity, a riveting-pressing member is arranged at the tail end of the connecting member, the pressing-connecting ring is arranged on the riveting-pressing member at the tail end of the connecting member, the tail sleeve is sleeved outside the pressing-connecting ring, the tail sleeve is in the shape of a hollow cylinder, and the outer surface of one end of the tail sleeve shrinks inwards. The LC-type short-tail heat-shrink-tube-free optical fiber moving connector is simple in structure, small in occupied space and convenient to mount and use, and shedding can be effectively prevented.
