发明名称 OPTICAL COUPLING MEMBER
摘要 An optical coupling member includes an adapter and an optical connector. The optical connector has a ferrule, a connector housing, and a holding member. The holding member allows relative movement between the connector housing and the ferrule, and holds a relative angle around a central axis between the connector housing and the ferrule. The connector housing has a contact portion including a contact surface. The adapter has a sleeve and an adapter housing. The ferrule is inserted into the sleeve while the contact surface contacts with the adapter housing for elastically deforming the contact portion.

主权项 1. An optical coupling member comprising: an optical connector; and an adapter into which the optical connector is inserted to an insertion direction, the optical connector includes: a ferrule attached to an end portion of an optical fiber;a connector housing for accommodating the ferrule, and the connector housing having an outer surface facing to an inner surface of the adapter, and a contact portion formed at the outer surface and including a contact surface inclined with respect to the insertion direction; anda holding member formed in the connector housing, and configured to hold a relative angle around a central axis of the optical fiber between the connector housing and the ferrule, and configured to allow relative movement between the connector housing and the ferrule in two directions perpendicular to the central axis and crossing each other at right angles, the adapter includes: a sleeve into which the ferrule is inserted; andan adapter housing configured to accommodate the sleeve and define the inner surface, wherein the ferrule is inserted into the sleeve while the contact surface contacts with the adapter housing for elastically deforming the contact portion.
