Publication number: 20240353644Abstract: A combinable optical-fiber adapter assembly includes combinable optical-fiber adapters. A first optical-fiber adapter includes a first adapter body, and a first side wall of the first adapter body has first connection units. A second optical-fiber adapter includes a second adapter body, and a first side wall of the second adapter body has second connection units. The first connection units are assembled with the second connection units. In a one-to-one manner, each of the first connection units is docked with a corresponding one of the second connection units, so that two adjacent optical-fiber adapters can be assembled side-by-side. Optical-fiber cables are inserted into the optical-fiber adapter from one side of the optical-fiber adapter. The optical-fiber adapter has a reduced length.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 10, 2024Publication date: October 24, 2024Inventors: Yang-Yang Cui, Yan-Mei Chang

Patent number: 11598923Abstract: A fiber optical connector includes a connector housing and an optical-fiber component. The connector housing comprises a receiving space. One end of the connector housing forms a connector opening communicating with the receiving space. Two side walls of the connector housing comprise a plurality of buckling portions adjacent to the connector opening. The optical-fiber component is positioned in the receiving space. The optical-fiber component comprises a sleeve piece. The sleeve piece comprises a block member and a threaded portion. The block member is assembled in the connector opening and the block member fully received inside the receiving space. Two sides of the block member respectively form an engaging portion. Each of the engaging portions is engaged with the corresponding buckling portion, and the threaded portion is exposed on the peripheral surface of a tail portion of the sleeve piece and out of the connector opening.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2021Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: ACON OPTICS COMMUNICATIONS INC.Inventors: Yang-Yang Cui, Yan-Mei Chang

Patent number: 11016249Abstract: A fiber optical connector includes a connector housing and an optical-fiber component. The connector housing includes a receiving space. Two ends of the connector housing respectively form a first connector opening and a second connector opening. The first connector opening and the second connector opening communicate with the receiving space. Plural pins are assembled on a side surface of the connector housing, and the optical fiber component is inserted into the receiving space from the first connector opening. The connector housing has an improved structural strength. The assembling between the pins and the circuit board allows the connector to be fixedly positioned with the circuit board.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 2020Date of Patent: May 25, 2021Assignee: ACON OPTICS COMMUNICATIONS INC.Inventors: Yang-Yang Cui, Yan-Mei Chang

Patent number: 10054750Abstract: A rail structure for optical fiber cassette is adapted to be assembled on a board member of a fiber box. The first engaging structure and the second engaging structure at two ends of the rail body are movably engaged with the first buckling structure and the second buckling structure. Hence, the user may detach one of the rail structures from the board member, so that the distance between the rest two of the rail structures goes wider, and the user can assemble another optical fiber cassette between the two rail structures, and the type and the size of the optical fiber cassette may be different from the detached one. Hence, the rail structure has wide applicability to allow the user to change the optical fiber cassette with different types and specifications conveniently and quickly.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2017Date of Patent: August 21, 2018Assignee: Advanced-Connectek Inc.Inventors: Huan-Pin Hsu, Yan-Mei Chang
