SLEEVE FOR AN OPTICAL FIBER CONNECTOR
First Claim
1. A sleeve for an optical fiber connector, the optical fiber connector including an optical fiber cable, and a casing that has a main body connected to the optical fiber cable and a covering sleeved on the main body, the casing further having a projection that protrudes from the main body, and spaced-apart first and second protrusions that protrude from the covering in opposite directions, said sleeve comprising:
- a limiting unit includinga limiting wall, andtwo clamping walls that extend respectively from opposite ends of said limiting wall, that are adapted for clamping the covering of the casing of the optical fiber connector, that cooperate with said limiting wall to define a clamping space adapted for accommodating the covering of the casing, and that are adapted for abutting against the second protrusion of the casing;
a first abutment structure provided on said limiting unit, and adapted for abutting against the projection of the casing;
a second abutment structure provided on said limiting unit, and adapted for abutting against the first protrusion of the casing; and
a grip unit extending rearwardly from said limiting unit, forwardly movable for driving a forward movement of said limiting unit to thereby move the casing forwardly through abutment between said first abutment structure and the projection, and rearwardly movable for driving a rearward movement of said limiting unit to thereby move the casing rearwardly through abutment between said second abutment structure and the first protrusion and through abutment between said clamping walls and the second protrusion.

Abstract
A sleeve is adapted for a casing of an optical fiber. The casing has a projection and spaced-apart first and second protrusions. The sleeve includes a limiting unit, a first abutment structure, a second abutment structure and a grip unit. The limiting unit includes two clamping walls for clamping the casing and for abutting against the second protrusion of the casing. The first abutment structure is on the limiting unit for abutting against the projection of the casing. The second abutment structure is on the limiting unit for abutting against the first protrusion 35 of the casing. The grip unit extends from the limiting unit and is movable for driving the limiting unit to move the casing.
