Optical fiber connector capable of being assembled on site

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an optical fiber connector capable of being assembled on site. The connector comprises: a connector body having a hole penetrating both ends and a first insertion port penetrating the lower portion thereof; a splicing unit that is inserted into the hole of the connector body, holds the first core, aligns with the first optical fiber or a second optical fiber provided to the outside, and elastically presses the first or second optical fiber in a state in which the first optical fiber contacts the second optical fiber; a jig coupled to the connector body throughthe first insertion port to release the pressing of the splicing unit; a holder unit coupled to the connector body to elastically support one end of the splice unit and provide access to the second optical fiber, the other end of the splice unit being supported by the connector body; a universal tube formed of an elastic material and surrounding an outer surface of the coating layer or the outersheath of the second optical fiber and inserted into the holder unit; and a boot coupled to the holder unit to fasten the universal pipe.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to an optical fiber connector, and more specifically, to a field-assembled optical fiber connector that can be simply assembled on site to connect optical fibers. Background technique [0002] An optical fiber connector is a device used to join two optical fibers together. In view of the complexity of the connection process, most of the processes are usually carried out in manufacturing facilities. This process includes aligning the core of the optical fiber with a ferrule, polishing the end of the optical fiber and epoxy bonding to cause optical loss Minimized, connectors are attached to the two ends of the optical fiber to form a so-called "patch cord" that is distributed and used for optical line installation. For example, LC, ST, FC and SC fiber optic connectors are currently used. [0003] Since the patch cord is manufactured in the form of a finished product with a certain length in the manufacturing facility according t...

Problems solved by technology

[0006] Although the fiber optic connector disclosed in this document can be assembled on site, the fiber optic connector may have the disadvantage that the connectivity of the optical fibers may be relatively weak and the coupling of the optical fibers may not be complete because they The structure, that is, when the housing holder that closes the optical fiber housing cover moves, the optical fiber housing cover clamps the optical fiber due to the thickness difference of the optical fiber housing cover
