    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical connector containing a material having satisfactory side loading ability, flexibility, chemical resistance and satisfactory environmental performance over a wide range of temperature and humidity and having desired knitting characteristics and relatively low sensitivity to molding parameters. SOLUTION: This optical connector 1 having a housing assembly 10 containing polyphenyl sulfone(PPSU) is provided. The PPSU has the several characteristics suitable for use together with the optical connector including satisfactory flexibility, low sensitivity to the molding parameters, satisfactory environment characteristics and the adaptability to the anaerobic adhesive frequently used for mounting an optical fiber to a ferrule 16. The connector has a ferrule assembly 11 and insertion part 24 which are to be housed in a one-piece housing. When the insertion part is inserted into the first end of the housing, a keying mechanism of the insertion part meshes with the keying mechanism of the housing and fixes the insertion part to the fixed position in the housing.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a connector for terminating optical fibers. SOLUTION: This connector 10 is provided with an integrated housing 20, a ferrule assembly 11 and an insert 24. The insert is provided with a key 31 paired with key grooves 32 formed in the housing. The housing is provided with a first opening receiving the ferrule assembly, and next the insert and a second opening facing the first opening. The end part of the ferrule assembly is protruded, passing through the second opening. The insert is provided with a flange 25 having two flat surfaces which are arranged oppositely and two keys which are arranged oppositely. A nearly rectangular cross section is imparted to the flange by the key and the flat surfaces 33 of the flange. When the insert is inserted into a first end of the housing, the key of the flange is lined up with the key grooves of the housing. When the insert is inserted into the housing, the insert is locked to a prescribed position within the housing by the key and the key grooves.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a connector for terminating an optical fiber. The connector comprises a one-piece housing, a ferrule assembly and an insert. T he insert has keys formed thereon that are adapted to mate with keyways formed in the housing. The housing has a first opening formed therein that first receives the ferrule assembly and then the insert and a second opening opposite the first opening. The end of the ferrule assembly that holds the end of the optical fiber protrudes through the secon d opening. The insert has a flange thereon that has two oppositely located flat surface s and two oppositely located keys. The keys each have a chamfered surface. The keys an d the flat surfaces of the flange provide the flange with a substantially rectangular cross-section. The first opening formed in the housing has a substantially square cross- section. When the insert is inserted into the first end of the housing, the substantially squa re cross-section of the opening aligns with the oppositely located flat surfaces of the flange t o thereby cause the keys of the flange to align with the keyways formed in the surfaces of t he housing. The chamfered surfaces of the keys deflect the sides of the housing outwardl y as the insert is inserted into the housing. The keys of the insert are then received bythe keyways formed in the housing to lock the insert into place within the housing.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a connector for terminating an optical fiber. The connector comprises a one-piece housing (20), a ferrule assembly (11) and an insert (24). The insert (24) has keys (31-31) formed thereon that are adapted to mate with keyways (32-32) formed in the housing (20). The housing (20) has a first opening (51) formed therein that first receives the ferrule assembly (11) and then the insert (24) and a second opening (18) opposite the first opening (51). The end (19) of the ferrule assembly (11) that holds the end of the optical fiber protrudes through the second opening (18). The insert (24) has a flange (25) thereon that has two oppositely located flat surfaces (33-33) and two oppositely located keys (31-31). The keys (31-31) each have a chamfered surface (39-39). The keys (31-31) and the flat surfaces (33-33) of the flange (25) provide the flange (25) with a substantially rectangular cross-section. The first opening (51) formed in the housing (20) has a substantially square cross-section. When the insert (24) is inserted into the first end (51) of the housing (20), the substantially square cross-section of the opening (51) aligns with the oppositely located flat surfaces (33-33) of the flange (25) to thereby cause the keys (31-31) of the flange (25) to align with the keyways (32-32) formed in the surfaces (33-33) of the housing (20). The chamfered surfaces (39-39) of the keys (31-31) deflect the sides of the housing (20) outwardly as the insert (24) is inserted into the housing (20). The keys (31-31) of the insert (24) are then received by the keyways (32-32) formed in the housing (20) to lock the insert (24) into place within the housing (20).

    Abstract: The present invention provides an optical connector having a housing assembly comprised of polyphenylsulfone (PPSU). PPSU has several characteristics that make it suitable for use with optical connectors including good flexibility, low sensitivity to molding parameters, good environmental properties, and compatibility with anaerobic adhesives, which are often used to attach the optical fiber to the ferrule in private networks. The connector preferably comprises a one-piece housing (10), which enhances the side-loading characteristics of the connector. The connector preferably comprises a ferrule assembly (11) and an insert (24) that are housed within the one-piece housing. The insert has a keying mechanism (25) formed thereon that is adapted to mate with a keying mechanism (32) formed in the housing. When the insert is inserted into the first end of the housing, the keying mechanism of the insert interlocks with the keying mechanism of the housing to lock the insert into place within the housing.
