Abstract: The present invention provides a connector unit that can surely position and connect a plurality of optical fiber plugs in a short time and easily release a connected state of optical fiber connectors even if the number of optical fiber connectors increases. A connector unit includes a positioning member for positioning a plurality of optical fiber plugs, an adapter that has plug guide holes for inserting tip ends of the optical fiber plugs to connect with the optical fiber plugs, and guide portions for guiding the positioning member with respect to the adapter and inserting the tip ends of the optical fiber plugs into the plug guide holes of the adapter to connect with the optical fiber plugs.

Abstract: An optical connector includes an optical fiber, and a ferrule configured to hold the optical fiber, wherein the ferrule has a front part, a rear part, a deformable mechanism to connect between the front part and the rear part, and an opening to allow the optical fiber to bend along with displacement of the deformable mechanism, and wherein the deformable mechanism has a restrictor to restrict the displacement or deformation of the deformable mechanism, the restrictor being provided at least between the deformable mechanism and the front part or between the deformable mechanism and the rear part.

Abstract: The optical connector ferrule has a second alignment board and a housing part having a first alignment board and a pair of side support parts. The first alignment board has a surface in which bare fiber parts of a optical fiber ribbon are positioned in a width direction and has holding grooves for arranging bare fiber parts. Side support parts support ends of the first alignment board and have an open part larger than a width of the ribbon in a upper and/or lower surface side of the first alignment board. The second alignment board has a positioning part for positioning in the width direction by engaging with a part of bare fiber parts on holding grooves and a fixing part for pressing and fixing bare fiber parts. The second alignment board is arranged to face the first alignment board and to sandwich bare fiber parts.

Abstract: An optical connector includes a fiber holder with guide holes for guiding optical fibers, a space communicating with the guide holes and to accommodate the optical fibers, and a deformable member that forms at least a part of the fiber holder and causes the space to deform or displace to allow a part or all of the optical fibers to bend in the space.

Abstract: Provided is a connector unit capable of surely positioning and cone ting a plurality of optical fiber plugs in a short time and easily releasing the connected state of the optical fiber connectors even if the quantity of the optical fiber connectors is increased. The connector unit (10) comprises a positioning member (12) for positioning a plurality of optical fiber plugs (11), an adapter (13) with plug guide hole parts (20) into which the tip ends of the optical fiber plugs (11) we inserted for connection with each other, and guide parts (14) for guiding the positioning member (12) relative to the adapter (13) and inserting the tip ends of the optical fiber plugs (11) into the plug guide hole parts (20) of the adapter (13) for connection with each other.

Abstract: An optical connector unit includes optical fiber plugs to be attached to and detached from the optical connector unit; a member for location, with each of the optical fiber plugs being inserted into respective opening holes of the member for location; an adaptor, a front part of each of the optical fiber plugs being individually inserted into and connected to the adaptor; a connection jig for pushing the member for location toward a side of the adaptor and then for inserting the front part of each of the optical fiber plugs into the adaptor; and a detachment jig for detaching each of the optical fiber plugs from the adaptor by being engaged with the member for location and then by pulling the member for location.

Abstract: An optical connector unit according to the present invention is characterized in that the optical connector unit 10 comprises: optical fiber plugs 11 as a plurality of pieces therefor; a member for location 12, for inserting thereinto each of the optical fiber plugs as a plurality of the pieces therefor, and then for locating the same; an adaptor 20, for inserting thereinto a front part on each of the optical fiber plugs, and then for connecting the same thereto individually; a connection jig 40, for pushing the member for location 12 toward a side for the adaptor 20, and then for inserting the point part on each of the optical fiber plugs 11 into the adaptor 20; and a detachment jig 50, for detaching each of the optical fiber plugs 11 as a plurality of the pieces therefor from the adaptor 20, by being engaged with the member for location 12 and then by pulling the same.

Abstract: An optical fiber connector includes a connector ferrule having an end face serving as a connection end face of the optical fiber connector, and an optical fiber fixed in the connector ferrule and protruding from the end face of the connector ferrule. A central portion of the optical fiber including a core thereof protrudes from a peripheral portion thereof. Thus, even in cases where the connection end face of an optical component to which the optical fiber connector is connected is uneven and a region thereof to which the optical fiber is connected is recessed, the core of the optical fiber can be connected to the region without fail since the core of the optical fiber protrudes from the peripheral portion of same.
