Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure relates to an optical module, including a bracket, and a handle and a plate both of which are connected to the bracket, where the plate is rotationally connected to the bracket, and a first end of the plate is provided with a buckle, and a second end of the plate abuts against a driving portion disposed on the handle, the driving portion is configured to: while the handle is moving along a length direction of the bracket, drive the second end of the plate that abuts against the driving portion to move, resulting in rotation of the buckle provided at the first end of the plate. On this basis, a lateral unlocking of the optical module is achieved along its length direction with a high unlocking reliability.

Claims (13)

1. An optical module, comprising:

a bracket, and a handle and a plate both of which are connected to the bracket,

wherein the plate is rotationally connected to the bracket, and a first end of the plate is provided with a buckle, and a second end of the plate abuts against a driving portion disposed on the handle, the driving portion is configured to: while the handle is moving along a length direction of the bracket, drive the second end of the plate that abuts against the driving portion to move, resulting in rotation of the buckle provided at the first end of the plate, and

wherein the bracket is provided with a stopped portion, and the handle is provided with a stopped chute; or the bracket is provided with a stopped chute, and the handle is provided with a stopped portion, the stopped portion and the limiting chute are configured to connect with to each other to restrict a moving stroke of the handle along the length direction of the bracket.

2. The optical module according to claim 1 , wherein the plate comprises a connecting portion and a locking portion, the connecting portion and the locking portion are respectively disposed at two ends of the plate, a first rotating portion is provided between the connecting portion and the locking portion, and the first rotating portion is rotationally connected to a second rotating portion provided on the bracket.

3. The optical module according to claim 2 , wherein a chute is disposed on a first side of the connecting portion facing the handle, and the driving portion abuts against the chute, the driving portion is configured to: while the handle is moving outward along the length direction of the bracket, the driving portion movable along the chute drives the connecting portion to rotate along the direction away from the handle.

4. The optical module according to claim 3 , wherein a height dimension of the chute gradually reduces along the handle's outward move direction.

5. The optical module according to claim 2 , wherein the buckle is disposed on the locking portion, and a latch in a cage for receiving the optical module is configured for snapping into the buckle.

6. The optical module according to claim 2 , further comprising a covering board above the plate and covering the plate, and comprising a connecting board and a pressure board, the connecting board is connected to the bracket, the pressure board is engaged with the connecting portion, and the pressure board is configured to drive the connecting portion to rotate in a direction toward the handle while the connecting portion is driven by the driving portion.

7. The optical module according to claim 2 , wherein the bracket is provided with a groove for receiving the buckle, the groove is configured to:

receive the buckle that is retracted when the connecting portion rotates in the direction away from the handle.

8. The optical module according to claim 1 , wherein the handle is provided with a hook, and the bracket is provided with a spring, the spring is arranged along the length direction of the bracket, wherein a first end of the spring abuts against the bracket, and the second end thereof abuts against the hook, the spring is configured to flex along the length direction of the bracket when the handle is moving outward along the length direction of the bracket.

9. The optical module according to claim 2 , wherein the first rotating portion is a rotating shaft, the second rotating portion is a hole; or the first rotating portion is a hole, the second rotating portion is a rotating shaft, the hole and the rotating shaft are configured to joint, such that the plate is rotatably connected to the bracket.
