FIG. 1 shows a front view of an optical connector; FIG. 2 shows a rear view thereof; FIG. 3 shows a right side view thereof; FIG. 4 shows a left side view thereof; FIG. 5 shows a top view thereof; FIG. 6 shows a bottom view thereof; FIGS. 7 to 10 show perspective views thereof; FIG. 11 shows a sectional view, taken along line 11-11 in FIG. 1; FIG. 12 shows a sectional view, taken along line 12-12 in FIG. 4; FIG. 13 shows a sectional view, taken along line 13-13 in FIG. 4; FIG. 14 shows a partial enlarged view, showing a part designated by line 14-14 in FIG. 12; FIG. 15 shows a partial enlarged view, showing a part designated by line 15-15 in FIG. 13; FIG. 16 shows an enlarged view of FIG. 11; and, FIG. 17 shows an enlarged view of FIG. 4. The evenly spaced broken line portion of the figure drawings are included to show portions of the optical connector that form no part of the claimed design. The dot-dash broken lines in FIGS. 12 and 13 show portions from which the enlarged views of FIGS. 14 and 15 have been taken. The dot-dash broken lines form no part of the claimed design.
Abstract:
An LC type plug with a shutter includes: a plug frame; a square cylindrical front housing arranged slidably on the plug frame and including a shutter; a locking housing connected to the plug frame; and a spring provided between an upper part of the front housing and the locking housing. The front housing includes a front portion storage space for storing a front portion of the spring, the locking housing is provided with a rear portion storage space for storing a rear portion of the spring, a rear end side of the front portion storage space and a front end side of the rear portion storage space are formed so as to overlap with each other, and the spring is not exposed to an outside even in a non-connected state of the plug, and the entire part is stored in the both storage spaces.
Abstract:
An optical connector plug with a shutter to be fitted to an optical connector adapter includes: a plug frame configured to hold a ferrule; a square cylindrical front housing including a shutter that opens and closes with a movement of the ferrule; a locking housing fixedly and integrally connected to the plug frame and configured to be fitted into and be locked with the optical connector adapter; and a spring that biases the front housing forward. The plug frame is moved forward by a rearward movement of the front housing, a front opening edge portion of the plug frame expands a shutter into a straight shape, and the shutter includes slits straddling over a boundary between a flat portion and a curved portion when light is blocked, and a protrusion formed by a center portion being deformed by the expanded shutter when being fitted is cancelled.
Abstract:
Disclosed an optical connector plug to be fitted into a LC type adapter having a wide width opening and a narrow width opening. The optical connector plug includes a square cylindrical front housing; a plug frame for retaining a ferrule and slidable in the front housing, a locking housing connected to the plug frame and fitted in and locked with the LC type adapter. The guide portion on an upper part of the front housing has side wall surfaces coming in sliding contact with the opening having a narrow width at the upper part of the adapter and locking projections on the sidewall surfaces. The locking projections abut against an edge portion of an opening of the adapter when the locking housing is fitted into the adapter, so that the front housing is moved rearward, and a distal end portion of the ferrule projects outward from the opening.
