技术领域
本申请涉及光通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种光纤连接头以及光纤连接器。
背景技术
随着现代社会的发展、信息量的爆炸增长,人们对网络吞吐能力的需求不断提高。光传输凭借其独有的超高带宽,低电磁干扰等特性,逐渐成为现代通信的主流方案,尤其是现阶段新建的网络,以光纤到户(fiber to the home,FTTH)为代表的接入网,正在大规模的部署。
在光纤到户网络建设中,从光线路终端(optical line terminal,OLT)到用户的光纤终端盒(access terminal box,ATB),中间需要依次经过馈线段光缆、配线段光缆以及入户段光缆,其中,入户段光缆用于连接分纤盒和光纤终端盒,在FTTH网络的入户段光缆的布放过程中,一种做法是熔接,即在分纤盒内分配好对应每户的光纤端头,将每户的光纤端头和入户光缆用光纤熔接机在分纤盒内进行熔接,再将入户光缆铺设到每家每户。在入户光缆的另一端,也需要进行一次现场熔接,以便和每家每户的光纤终端盒连接起来。这种做法带来的问题是需要专用的光纤熔接设备,对操作人员的技术要求较高,操作起来过程繁琐、不便利。
发明内容

图5为光纤连接头100的剖视图,光缆140的一端与FMC组件150的一端连接,且光缆140由FMC组件150的第一端150a伸出,FMC组件150包括插芯1501,插芯1501设置在FMC组件150的第二端150b,主轴160套设于该FMC组件150的第一端150a外,保护罩170套设于该FMC组件150的第二端150b外,且主轴160与保护罩170固定连接。手柄120套设于主轴160以及保护罩170外侧,尾套130与主轴160的远离保护罩170的一端连接,且主轴16的远离保护罩170的一端用于固定光缆140。
请参阅图6a所示的FMC组件的爆炸分解图以及图6b所示的FMC组件的剖视图,FMC组件150可以包括插芯1501、插芯固定部1502、外框套1503、底座1504、弹簧1505以及FMC尾套1506,光缆140接入底座1504并剥开为光纤,进而光纤贯穿插芯固定部1502并与插芯1501连接,插芯固定部1502用于固定插芯1501并保护光纤,外框套1503套设于插芯1501以及插芯固定部1502外侧,外框套1503与底座1504靠近插芯1501的一端固定连接,底座1504远离插芯1501的一端与FMC尾套1506通过螺纹旋接,弹簧1505固定在底座1504的内壁,弹簧1505靠近插芯1501的一端与插芯固定部1502抵接,用于对插芯1501及插芯固定部1502提供支撑,并使插芯1501具有伸缩性。
具体的,在工作人员现场组装时,首先可以根据实际需求裁剪任意长度的光缆140,接着将光缆140依次接入底座1504、插芯固定部1502以及插芯1501,随后将外框套1503套设于插芯1501以及插芯固定部1502外侧,并与底座1504固定,再将FMC尾套1506套设于底座1504外侧,并与底座1504通过螺纹旋接,以此完成光缆140接入FMC组件150 的安装,进而在FMC组件150外侧套设主轴160、保护罩170、手柄120以及尾套130,以完成光纤连接头100的组装。需要说明的是,本申请中的光缆140可以包括蝶缆、圆缆、扁平缆等各种缆型,具体此处不做限定。
在一实施例中,保护罩170包括罩体171和由罩体171一端延伸形成的固定套172,该固定套172插入主轴160内,且罩体171套设于插芯1501外侧,实现对插芯1501的保护。在现场安装该光纤连接头100时,通过将固定套172插入主轴160内,可以快速实现对保护罩170的定位,有利于快速实现保护罩170的轴线与主轴160的轴线之间的对准,进而快速安装。固定套172内部的空腔可以与FMC组件150的外框套1503匹配,例如,固定套172内部空腔的横截面可以为方形,且FMC组件150的外框套1503的横截面也可以为方形,且两者之间大小匹配,进而避免固定套172相对于FMC组件150旋转。
相对于现有技术中不可现场组装的室外光纤连接头,其光缆长度在出厂前就已经固定,施工现场不能更改,例如,厂家一般会生产多种规格的光纤连接头,比如光纤连接头的光缆长度分别为50米、100米以及200米等规格,如果施工现场仅需60米长的光缆,那么在施工过程中,仍然需要为客户配备光缆长度为100米规格的光纤连接头,势必会造成40米长的光缆浪费。
本申请实施例中的光纤连接头100由于采用了FMC组件150来接入光缆140,可以根据客户需要或者安装现场实际需要的光缆长度,由安装人员灵活裁剪进而得到实际所需长度的光缆,在安装现场即可对剪裁后的光缆端部进行组装,例如,先组装为FMC组件150,然后再将手柄120、尾套130、主轴160以及保护罩170等与FMC组件150组装在一起,进而现场组装出光纤连接头100。可见,本实施例中的光纤连接头100的光缆长度可以在施工现场灵活设置,有利于节约光缆,且组装方便快捷。另外,通过在FMC组件150外套设主轴160、保护罩170、手柄120以及尾套130来组装光纤连接头100,可以以此对FMC组件150进行保护使其满足IP68防护等级,由于FMC组件150得到了有效的防护,使得该光纤连接头100方便在室外与适配器200即插即用,操作简单快捷,安全可靠。另外,采用FMC组件的光纤连接头,由于可以现场组装和拆卸,如果在使用过程中插芯或FMC组件损坏,仅需要更换FMC组件即可,不需要更换整个带有光缆的光纤连接头,大大降低了后期维护费用,节约成本。
请参阅图4和图5,在一实施例中,光缆140上靠近FMC组件150的一端外部设有光缆密封圈141,能够防止外界的异物、水气、灰尘等由光缆140与尾套130或主轴160之间的缝隙进入光纤连接头100内部。
在一实施例中,主轴160上靠近保护罩170的一端外部设有主轴密封圈164,从而防止外界的异物、水气、灰尘等由手柄120与主轴160之间的缝隙进入光纤连接头100内部,使得光纤连接头100的密封性更好。
在一实施例中,主轴160远离保护罩170的一端的内壁形成有轴肩161,该轴肩161与FMC组件150的第一端150a抵接,可以防止FMC组件150沿主轴160的轴向朝着远离保护罩170的方向滑动,对FMC组件150起到限位作用。
在一实施例中,主轴160的远离保护罩170的一端包括固定部162和由固定部162的 端面延伸形成的压接结构163,该固定部162和压接结构163套设于光缆140外侧,固定部162的外壁形成有外螺纹,尾套130的内壁设有内螺纹,尾套130套设于固定部162和压接结构163外,且尾套130上的内螺纹与固定部162上的外螺纹旋接,以使得压接结构163固定光缆140。
请参阅图7,在一实施例中,压接结构163可以包括两个悬臂梁1631,这两个悬臂梁1631的固定端连接在固定部162上,这两个悬臂梁1631的可动端的内壁上均设有凸点结构1632,该凸点结构1632的数量具体此处不做限定。尾套130的内腔可以略小于两个悬臂梁1631在自然状态下形成的外围,进而在尾套130上的内螺纹与固定部162上的外螺纹旋紧的过程中,会压紧两个悬臂梁1631的可动端向光缆140的方向挤压以夹紧该光缆140,其中,凸点结构1632可以增加光缆140的抗拉性能。由于光缆140与FMC组件150连接,且光缆140被主轴160上的压接结构163压紧,可以防止FMC组件150在主轴160内沿主轴160的轴向前后运动。需要说明的是,压接结构163可以包括数量更多的悬臂梁1631,例如三个、四个等,具体此处不做限定。在其他实施例中,压接结构163也可以为一圆筒状的结构,且该圆筒状的结构由弹性材料制成,尾套130的内腔可以略小于圆筒状结构的外围,进而在尾套130上的内螺纹与固定部162上的外螺纹旋紧的过程中,尾套130会挤压弹性的压接结构163,进而固定光缆140。
在一实施例中,手柄120为内部具有台阶面的圆筒结构,其中,手柄120内部的台阶面与主轴160靠近保护罩170的一端抵接,以防止手柄120向远离尾套130的方向滑动,在尾套130与固定部162旋紧后,尾套130可以与手柄120抵接,以防止手柄120向靠近尾套130的方向滑动。除了上述介绍的方式外,也可以有固定手柄120的其他方式,例如,主轴160的外表面设有滑槽,手柄120的内表面设有凸缘,通过旋转手柄可以使凸缘与滑槽扣合以固定手柄,具体此处不做限定。
请参阅图8,在一实施例中,手柄120远离尾套130的一端的内壁上设有凸出的锁紧结构1201,该锁紧结构1201可以为圆柱形的凸块,其数量可以是1个也可以是多个,具体此处不做限定。
请参阅图9,在一实施例中,防尘帽110通过一绳带栓系在光纤连接头100上,防尘帽110主要是为了在光纤连接头100插入适配器200之前起到防尘防水并保护FMC组件150的作用。为了使防尘帽110在与手柄120扣合时形成良好的密封作用,该防尘帽110外部设有防尘帽密封圈111。防尘帽110的一端开设有光纤连接头110的收容腔,该收容腔沿防尘帽110的轴向延伸,可以收容光纤连接头100中的保护罩170以及FMC组件150与外部相连的一端。防尘帽110的外表面设有至少一个锁紧凹槽112,该锁紧凹槽112的数量与手柄120上锁紧结构1201的数量相同,锁紧结构1201用于与锁紧凹槽112扣合,以使得防尘帽110与手柄120固定。
在一实施例中,该手柄120远离尾套130的一端的外表面上设有指示标识121,以指示手柄120的连接或松开状态。该手柄120靠近尾套130的一端的外表面上设有削平平面122,在操作手柄120与防尘帽110进行固定时,可以夹持削平平面122进行旋转操作,从而防止打滑。为了进一步提高摩擦力,还可以在削平平面122上形成防滑沟槽,以增加操 作手感。需要说明的是,削平平面122可以是对称的一对,也可以是对称的多对,如两对、三对等,具体此处不做限定。
请参阅图10a,在一实施例中,保护罩170的背离主轴160的端部设有一个开口1703,使得保护罩170的背离主轴160的端部的横截面呈C形,即该保护罩170是周面上有一个开口1703的C形罩。
当然在其他实施例中,该保护罩170的周面上也可以有不止一个开口1703,例如可以包括2个开口、3个开口等,具体此处不做限定。上述开口1703可以呈喇叭形,即开口1703端部具有弧面,起导向作用,有利于引导光纤连接头100插入适配器200中。
在一实施例中,为了在保护FMC组件150的基础上防止保护罩170沿主轴160的轴向运动,固定套172插入主轴160内,且在主轴靠近保护罩170的端面上设有第一固定结构1601,在罩体171靠近固定套172的端面上设有第二固定结构1701,第一固定结构1601与第二固定结构1701卡合,以使得主轴160与保护罩170固定连接。主轴和保护罩之间采用卡合固定的连接方式,能够更加方便光纤连接头的安装和拆卸,相比于主轴和保护罩采用螺纹连接的光纤连接头,能够大大缩短现场组装以及拆卸光纤连接头的时间。经过试验,本实施例提供的光纤连接头的安装和拆卸时间只有采用螺纹连接方式的光线连接头的安装和拆卸时间的1/5。
可以理解的是,为了使固定套172插入主轴160,并方便设置第二固定结构1701,该固定套172的外径小于罩体171的外径。另外,第一固定结构1601可以设置在主轴160端面上的任意位置,第二固定结构1701可以设置在罩体171端面上的任意位置,以C形罩为例,该第二固定结构1701可以设置在罩体171的端面上与开口1703所对应的位置。
请参阅图10b以及图10c,在一实施例中,为了防止固定套171插入主轴160后在主轴160内转动,并进一步防止固定套171向主轴160内滑动,该主轴160靠近保护罩170的端面上设有定位槽1602,与之相对的在罩体171靠近固定套172的端面上设有定位键1702,该定位键1702可以插入定位槽1602,当然也可以是主轴160靠近保护罩170的端面上设有定位键1702,罩体171靠近固定套172的端面上设有定位槽1602,另外该定位键1702与定位槽1602可以是一组,也可以有多组,具体此处不做限定。
