Problems solved by technology

Most of the existing optical fiber connectors are single-core optical fiber connectors, which can only realize the butt joint of one optical fiber. Not only the connection efficiency is low, the production cost is high, but also the space occupied in the box is large, and it is difficult to adapt to multiple optical fibers. Simultaneous connection technology development needs
In order to solve the above problems, some multi-core optical fiber connectors have appeared in the prior art, which can be used for the butt joint of multiple optical fibers, but their structural settings are not reasonable and compact, and the use of plug-in is not convenient enough.
On the other hand, most of the existing optical fiber connectors are used indoors, and their waterproof performance is weak, and the connector is transmitted through the cable when plugging and unplugging, and does not directly act on the plug of the connector, which may easily cause deformation and damage to the optical cable.
There are also optical fiber connectors with threaded connection structure, which need to be twisted multiple times during installation and removal, which is very inconvenient to use

Abstract

The invention relates to a multi-core optical fiber connector. The multi-core optical fiber connector comprises an adapter assembly and a connector assembly. The connector is characterized in that the adapter assembly comprises an adapter cylinder; a front cavity and a rear cavity are arranged in the adapter cylinder; an inner connecting cylinder is arranged in the front cavity; a clamping jaw is arranged between the inner connecting cylinder and the inner wall of the adapter cylinder; a butt joint cavity is arranged in the rear cavity; the butt joint cavity is provided with clamping hooks; the butt joint cavity is communicated with the inner connecting cylinder; the connector assembly comprises a connector cylinder; the front portion of the connector cylinder is connected with the front cavity of the cylinder barrel in a matched mode; the middle front portion of the connector cylinder is sleeved with an elastic outer sleeve; the periphery of the connector cylinder in the elastic outer sleeve is provided with clamping grooves connected with adapter clamping jaw in a clamped mode; and the inner hole of the connector cylinder is provided with a multi-core insertion core assembly; the front end of the multi-core insertion core assembly is connected with the butt joint cavity of the adapter cylinder. Parallel butt joint of multiple optical fibers can be achieved. The multi-core optical fiber connector has the advantages of reasonable and compact structure, good waterproof performance, easiness and convenience in plugging and using and reliable connection.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a multi-core optical fiber connector, which is used for parallel connection of multiple optical fibers and belongs to the technical field of optical fiber communication devices. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the Internet and optical networks, the application of optical fiber connectors is becoming more and more extensive. Most of the existing optical fiber connectors are single-core optical fiber connectors, which can only realize the butt joint of one optical fiber. Not only the connection efficiency is low, the production cost is high, but also the space occupied in the box is large, and it is difficult to adapt to multiple optical fibers. Simultaneous connection technology development needs. In order to solve the above problems, some multi-core optical fiber connectors have appeared in the prior art, which can be used for the butt joint of multiple optical fibers, but their structure is not rea...
