Patent EP-0762167-A1 (EP)
Title: Front removable insert
Inventor: BARNES RICHARD LEWIS JR
IPC: H01R43/00
Filed: 1996-09-11
Abstract: A front connector insert includes a removable front portion (2) and a rear portion which is fixed in the connector. The rear portion retains the terminus of an optical fiber or electrical cable, with the removable front portion being removable to expose the terminus for cleaning or testing. The removable front portion includes a latching clip (9) having a detent (12) at one end which engages an identation in the fixed portion of the insert when the removable portion of the insert is aligned with the fixed portion such that the clips align with grooves in the fixed insert. Removal of the removable portion (2) of the insert is accomplished using a simple removal tool having an L-shaped extension which is inserted into a corresponding L-shaped (7) recess in the front insert, the removal tool being rotated following insertion so that the removable insert can easily be removed from the connector to expose the optical fiber termini and contacts and permit testing or cleaning.
