Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent an optical fiber core from damaging and to improve the reliability by positioning the flange part at the rear part of an optical connector ferrule outside an adapter. CONSTITUTION:The flange part 32 that a pressure member 4 is pressed against is provided to the optical connector ferrule 3. This flange part 32 is positioned outside the adapter 1 to attach and detach the adapter 1 and ferrule 3 by gripping the flange part 32. Consequently, the optical fiber core A never damages and is improved in reliability, and the member 4 presses the flange part 32, so the influence of the sticking and swelling of an adhesive at the rear end part of the ferrule upon the designing of a pressure spring is eliminated.

■Since the optical connector ferrule has a straight shape, the rear end of the ferrule is pressed by a pressure spring, but when attaching the optical fiber RIS wire to the rear end of the ferrule, adhesive sometimes adheres or bulges unevenly. As a result, the ferrule becomes longer, so we try to remove the adhered adhesive later, but it is not possible to remove it sufficiently, and in the worst case, the pressure spring is different from the designed value. may become fully compressed and no longer function as a spring.

It is necessary to grasp the optical fiber core with the ferrule attached or the protective member inserted on top of it to remove the ferrule. If the optical fiber core is grasped, it may damage the core wire, resulting in poor reliability. Moreover, the workability for inserting and attaching the protective member is poor, and the structure becomes complicated.

■Since the pressure spring and the cap are two separate parts, when you grip the cap and pressurize the pressure spring, the spring will buckle and the inner optical fiber core will also be affected by the aperture. The reliability is poor as it may cause damage (and the ease of handling and work is poor because it is made of two parts).
