Problems solved by technology

[0004] Undoubtedly, replacing the back sleeve by cutting the optical fiber will obviously cause great waste, and at the same time it will prolong the assembly time of the optical fiber connector and greatly reduce the production efficiency of the optical fiber connector

Embodiment Construction

[0018] Examples of fiber optic connectors for easy maintenance, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, it includes a front sleeve 101 , a ferrule 102 , a spring 103 , an optical fiber 104 and a rear sleeve 105 .

[0019] In this embodiment, the structure and assembly relationship of the front sleeve 101 , the ferrule 102 , the spring 103 and the optical fiber 104 are all in the prior art, and will not be repeated here.

[0020] The overall outline of the rear sleeve 105 is roughly cuboid, and it has an optical fiber hole 11 that runs through the front and back. The optical fiber hole 11 is used for the optical fiber 104 to pass through. In this embodiment, there are two optical fiber holes 11, and the two optical fiber holes are arranged side by side. The rear cover 105 is arranged on the rear cover 105, and the left and right sides of the rear cover 105 are respectively provided with inlet ports 12, which correspond to the fiber holes 11 one by one, and the optical fibers 104 can pass...

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of optical connectors and especially to a fiber connector easy to repair. The fiber connector easy to repair comprises a front sleeve and a back sleeve. Fiber holes passing through the front and back of the back sleeve are disposed on the back sleeve. The wall of the back sleeve is also equipped with fiber inlets communicated with the fiber holes and used for enabling fibers to entering the fiber holes along radial direction. In a fiber connector assembling process, after components, such as a fiber spring and an optical pin or the like, are all installed, the fibers enter the corresponding fiber holes via the fiber inlets along the radial direction; then the back sleeve is inserted into the front sleeve. Thus, the corresponding sidewall of the front sleeve may seal the fiber inlets such that the performance of the fiber connector is same as that of a conventional fiber connector. Similarly, when being required to be replaced, the back sleeve is just required to be pulled out and then the fibers pass through the corresponding fiber inlets and are separated from the back sleeve. As known from the above description, the back sleeve of the fiber connector easy to repair can be replaced while the fibers are not cut off.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical connectors, in particular to an optical fiber connector which is convenient for maintenance. Background technique [0002] With the continuous deepening of people's research on light energy, optical fibers have been widely used in various industries. Optical fiber connectors, as the connecting parts of optical fibers, naturally play a role that cannot be ignored in the use of optical fibers. [0003] The main components of the current optical fiber connector are front sleeve, ferrule, spring, rear sleeve, crimping sleeve, optical fiber and sheath. During production, it is necessary to thread the rear sleeve onto the optical fiber first, then thread the spring, glue the ferrule, and finally insert and lock the front sleeve and the rear sleeve to complete the assembly of the plug. The most typical products are ST series and FC series. , SC series and LC series etc. Chinese patents with patent numbers 200910...
