Abstract
The invention pertains to housing for receiving a component which can be connected to the housing in a pluggable manner, in particular an optoelectronic transceiver, the housing having at least one pressing spring, which is deflected when the component is inserted. According to the invention it is provided that the at least one pressing spring (71, 72) tapers in its width in the direction of the interior of the housing. It is preferably of a trapezoidal design. Higher spring forces can be realized with it and it is ensured that a component which is plugged into the housing can be removed from the housing in a safe and reliable manner during unlocking of the housing.
Claims10
A housing for receiving a component which can be connected to the housing in a pluggable manner, in particular an optoelectronic transceiver, the housing having at least one pressing spring, which is deflected when the component is inserted, characterized in that the at least one pressing spring (71, 72, 73, 74) tapers in its width (B1, B2) in the direction of the interior of the housing.
The housing as claimed in at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the pressing spring (71, 72, 73, 74) is designed as a rear continuation of the housing (21), with respect to the plugging-in direction of the component, bent around by more than 90 into the interior of the housing.
The housing as claimed in at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the housing has an upper part (22) and a lower part (21), which can be connected to a printed-circuit board (3), the pressing spring (71, 72, 73, 74) being articulated on the lower part (21).
The housing as claimed in at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that two pressing springs (71, 72), which are articulated on the right-hand and left-hand walls of the housing, are provided.
