Abstract:
1. An optical fiber connector for gripping a cable comprising an optical fiber, the optical fiber connector comprising: a fixing module comprising a support member, a fastening member mating with the support member, and a locking member, wherein the locking member is sleeved on the support member and the fastening member for gripping the optical fiber; the support member comprises a fixing portion, and a first assembling portion and a second assembling portion extending from opposite ends of the fixing portion; the fixing portion defines a receiving portion; the fastening member comprises a first resisting portion comprising a first resisting surface facing the bottom of the receiving portion, and a second resisting portion slantingly connected with the first resisting portion and comprising a second resisting surface facing the bottom of the receiving portion; and an optical fiber ferrule positioned at an end of the fixing module, wherein the optical fiber ferrule axially defines a through hole, the optical fiber is gripped in the fixing module, movably received in the through hole, and partly protruded out of the optical ferrule, when the optical fiber connector is assembled to an adapter to join with another optical fiber connector, the optical fiber is bent to elastically resist an optical fiber of the another optical fiber connector; wherein the fastening member is received in the receiving portion, the locking member is sleeved on the fixing portion, and the first resisting surface and the second resisting surface resists the bottom of the receiving portion as the locking member slides along the fixing portion.
