Optical transceiver

Claim 2

An optical transceiver, comprising: a housing formed to be inserted into or extracted from a cage in a host device; optical parts and electrical parts for optical communication being housed in the housing; a movable lock member for preventing the housing from being extracted from the cage, the cage comprising a lock hole for preventing the housing from being extracted from the cage when the movable lock member is placed into the lock hole; and a plurality of integration parts, comprising: an actuator portion engaged with the movable lock member rotatably connected to a rotation shaft attached to the housing, arranged movably in a front/back direction thereof in the housing, arranged to place the movable lock member into the lock hole when moved backward, and arranged to release the movable lock member from the lock hole when moved forward; and a rotating lever portion connected to the actuator portion through a hinge portion, arranged rotatably from an upper front end of the housing to an open position along with development of the hinge portion, and comprising a handle for moving the actuator portion to a forward position when rotated into the open position, wherein the actuator portion and the rotating lever portion of the integration parts are integrally formed.

Claim 3

The optical transceiver according to claim 1 , wherein: the integration parts further comprises a spring portion that is connected to the actuator portion, energized when the actuator portion is moved forward, and moves the actuator portion backward when the spring portion is de-energized.

Claim 4

The optical transceiver according to claim 2 , wherein: the spring portion comprises a leaf spring comprising a rising shape that is formed opposite to a stopper portion formed on the housing, the rising shape comprising a base portion where it is connected to the actuator portion and a contact portion where it is pressed against the stopper portion, the rising shape being elastically deformed when the actuator portion is moved forward.

Claim 5

The optical transceiver according to claim 1 , wherein: the integration parts comprises a resin molded product.

Claim 6

An optical transceiver comprising: a housing formed to be inserted into or extracted from a cage in a host device; optical parts and electrical parts for optical communication being housed in the housing; a movable lock member for preventing the housing from being extracted from the cage, the cage comprising a lock hole for preventing the housing from being extracted from the cage when the movable lock member is placed into the lock hole; and a plurality of integration parts, comprising: an actuator portion engaged with the movable lock member rotatably connected to a rotation shaft attached to the housing, arranged movably in a front/back direction thereof in the housing, arranged to place the movable lock member into the lock hole when moved backward, and arranged to release the movable lock member from the lock hole when moved forward; and a rotating lever portion connected to the actuator portion through a hinge portion, arranged rotatably from an upper front end of the housing to an open position along with development of the hinge portion, and comprising a handle for moving the actuator portion to a forward position when rotated into the open position, wherein the actuator portion and the rotating lever portion of the integration parts are integrally formed, the hinge portion comprises a thin part connecting a front end of the actuator portion with a lower end of the rotating lever portion, and the hinge portion comprises a groove formed perpendicularly to a rotation direction of the rotating lever portion.

Claim 7

An optical transceiver comprising: a housing formed to be inserted into or extracted from a cage in a host device; optical parts and electrical parts for optical communication being housed in the housing; a movable lock member for preventing the housing from being extracted from the cage, the cage comprising a lock hole for preventing the housing from being extracted from the cage when the movable lock member is placed into the lock hole; and a plurality of integration parts, comprising: an actuator portion engaged with the movable lock member rotatably connected to a rotation shaft attached to the housing, arranged movably in a front/back direction thereof in the housing, arranged to place the movable lock member into the lock hole when moved backward, and arranged to release the movable lock member from the lock hole when moved forward; and a rotating lever portion connected to the actuator portion through a hinge portion, arranged rotatably from an upper front end of the housing to an open position along with development of the hinge portion, and comprising a handle for moving the actuator portion to a forward position when rotated into the open position, wherein the actuator portion and the rotating lever portion of the integration parts are integrally formed, the hinge portion comprises a thin part connecting a front end of the actuator portion with a lower end of the rotating lever portion, and the hinge portion comprises a groove formed perpendicularly to a rotation direction of the rotating lever portion.
