Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to fiber optic communication field, be specifically related to a kind of fiber optic protection cap.
Background technology
Light pricker communication refers to use a laser as the carrier signal of information and transmit information by optical fibers
Communication system.The fibre core at optical fiber (Optic Fiber) Shi You center is coaxial with peripheral covering and overlay
The cylindrical filament of composition.
In fiber optic communication systems, in order to realize the need connected flexibly between disparate modules, equipment and system
Want, it is necessary to by a kind of device that can carry out between optical fiber and optical fiber and removably connecting, make the light path can be by institute
The passage needed is transmitted, and to realize and to complete predetermined or desired purpose and requirement, can realize this merit
The device of energy is exactly fiber active linker.Fiber active linker have be exposed to outer for connecting
Fiber stub.Not using when, fiber stub typically can be built with optical fiber protective cap.
The end face of fiber stub can only be protected by presently commercially available fiber optic protection cap, substantially can only play
Prevent the effect that it is collided with, but the dust cannot being subject to the end face of fiber stub, steam etc. pollute
Thing is cleaned.
Summary of the invention
The problem that the present invention solves is that existing fiber optic protection cap can only protect fiber stub not collided with, no
End face can be cleaned.
For solving the problems referred to above, the present invention provides a kind of fiber optic protection cap, is provided with one end in described protective cap
The receiving chamber of opening, described receiving chamber is used for accommodating fiber stub, and described receiving intracavity is provided with schmutzdecke,
For adsorbing the pollutant of the end face of fiber stub.
At least one during optionally, described schmutzdecke includes absorbed layer, clean layer；Described absorbed layer is used
In absorbing liquid pollutant, described clean layer is used for adhering to solid contaminant.
Optionally, described schmutzdecke includes described absorbed layer and described clean layer, described clean layer position simultaneously
On described absorbed layer.
Optionally, described absorbed layer is desiccant.
Optionally, described desiccant includes off-color material.
Optionally, described off-color material includes variable color silica gel.
Optionally, described protective cap is transparent or semitransparent.
Optionally, described clean layer is transparent or translucent.
Optionally, described clean layer is cotton layer.
Optionally, the thickness of described absorbed layer is more than the thickness of described clean layer.
Compared with prior art, technical scheme has the advantage that
The fiber optic protection cap of this programme is by accommodating intracavity increase schmutzdecke, when being located at outside fiber stub
Time, schmutzdecke can remove pollutant on end face, thus the cleaning realizing the end face to fiber stub is made
With.
Further, schmutzdecke includes clean layer and absorbed layer, and clean layer is dirty for removing the solid-state on end face
Dye thing, absorbed layer is used for absorbing the fluid contaminants such as steam, reaches preferable clean effect.
Further, absorbed layer includes off-color material, and protective cap or clean layer are transparent or semi-transparent
Bright, thus facilitate user to observe the discoloration of absorbed layer, convenient use.
Accompanying drawing explanation
Fig. 1 shows that the fiber optic protection cap of the embodiment of the present invention and the joints of optical fibre are under unassembled state
Structure chart；
Fig. 2 is the schematic cross-section of the fiber optic protection shade axial direction of the embodiment of the present invention.
Detailed description of the invention
Understandable, below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings for enabling the above-mentioned purpose of the present invention, feature and advantage to become apparent from
The specific embodiment of the present invention is described in detail.
One fiber optic protection cap of the present invention, with reference to shown in Fig. 1, Fig. 2, fiber optic protection cap 1 is used for being located at
Outside the fiber stub 21 of the joints of optical fibre 2.The receiving chamber 11 of one end open it is provided with in this protective cap 1, when
When the joints of optical fibre 2 do not use, accommodate chamber 11 and be used for accommodating fiber stub 21, be provided with in accommodating chamber 11
Schmutzdecke, for adsorbing the pollutant of the end face of fiber stub 21.
As can be seen here, the fiber optic protection cap of this programme is by accommodating intracavity increase schmutzdecke, when being located at
When fiber stub is outer, schmutzdecke can remove pollutant on end face, thus realizes the end to fiber stub
The cleaning action in face.
Specifically, schmutzdecke includes absorbed layer 2, and the clean layer 3 being positioned on absorbed layer 2, absorbed layer
2 are used for absorbing liquid pollutant, such as steam etc., and clean layer 3 is used for adhering to solid contaminant, such as powder
Dirt, fiber etc. stick to the on-liquid pollutant on fiber stub 21.When fiber stub 21 is plugged in appearance
Receiving after in chamber 11, clean layer 3 contacts with the end face 22 of fiber stub 21.
When being located at fiber stub 21 and being outer, clean layer 3 contacts with the end face 22 of fiber stub 21, can
With to absorption solid contaminant on end face 22, and the fluid contaminants such as steam can be via clean layer 3
Penetrate into absorbed layer 2, and absorbed by absorbed layer 2, thus realize the clear of the end face 22 to fiber stub 21
Clean effect, and then ensure the function of the joints of optical fibre 2.
Wherein, the thickness of absorbed layer 2 is more than the thickness of clean layer 3.It is to say, clean layer 3 compares
Thin, beneficially the fluid contaminants such as steam is swimmingly through clean layer 3 and arrive absorbed layer 2, and absorbed layer 2
Thickness relatively thick, to improve its absorbability.
The effect of absorbed layer 2 is to absorb moisture, the selection of its material can have multiple, such as desiccant,
Activated carbon etc..In the present embodiment, absorbed layer 2 selects off-color material, such as variable color silica gel etc., this variable color
Material is meeting variable color after meeting water, and user can judge whether to need by observing the color change of absorbed layer 2
Absorbed layer 2 to be changed or replacing protective cap 1.
Further, user can observe whether absorbed layer 2 occurs variable color, this reality intuitively for convenience
Executing example and be set to transparent or semitransparent by protective cap 1, so, user can be from the outside of protective cap 1
Observe directly the color change of absorbed layer 2, such as when protective cap 1 is located on fiber stub 21,
User need not protective cap 1 removes from fiber stub 21 color that just can see absorbed layer 2, side
Just use.
Wherein, transparent or semitransparent protective cap 1 can select rubber or plastics etc. to make.
In other embodiments, it is also possible to clean layer 3 is set to transparent or translucent, thus uses
The discoloration of absorbed layer 2 can be observed in family from the opening accommodating chamber 11.It should be noted that herein
Clean layer 3 transparent or translucent, can realize by selecting transparent or semitransparent material,
Can also realize by offering some through holes on clean layer 3.
Further, in the present embodiment, clean layer 3 is cotton layer, specifically can use long-staple cotton.
The solid contaminant such as dust can be played the effect of adhering well to by cotton layer, during use, as long as by optical fiber
Lock pin 21 is plugged in receiving chamber 11, and the end face 22 of fiber stub 21 is contacted with clean layer 3,
Then protective cap 1 or the joints of optical fibre 2 are carried out back rotation several times, it is possible to adhered to clearly by dust etc.
On clean layer 3.
In other embodiments, schmutzdecke can also only include absorbed layer 2 or only include clean layer 3.
Although present disclosure is as above, but the present invention is not limited to this.Any those skilled in the art,
Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, all can make various changes or modifications, therefore the guarantor of the present invention
The scope of protecting should be as the criterion with claim limited range.
