Patent ID: 10133012

Abstract:
The optical fiber adapter of the present disclosure includes an outer housing and an inner housing. The outer housing has a chamber surrounded by four walls. A first plate, a first alignment cylinder and two stop blocks are formed in the chamber. The first alignment cylinder extends from the first plate, and the two stop blocks are respectively formed on two of the four walls. The inner housing includes a second plate, a second alignment cylinder and two retaining clips. The second alignment cylinder extends in a longitudinal direction from the second plate. The two retaining clips are formed on the second plate, and each of the retaining clips includes a bending part, an extending part and a hooking part. The bending part has an arcuate cross-section and extends from the second plate. The extending part extends out from the rear end of the bending part in a direction parallel to the longitudinal direction. The hooking part has a wedge shape and is formed on an outer surface of the rear end of the extending part. The hooking parts of the two retaining clips are respectively hooked onto the two stop blocks, thereby preventing the inner housing from being pulled out of the outer housing.
