Abstract
A housing structure for a plug-in type optical connector, comprising a housing body (1) to be fixed on a backboard, having a first opening (4) on the front surface thereof for the insertion of an optical connector (14) for an outer cable, and a cover (6) having a second opening (8) on the front surface thereof for the insertion of the optical connector (14) for the outer cable and attached to the housing body (1) to be slidable thereon up and downward between a closed position at which the second opening (8) does not coincide with the first opening (4) on the housing body (1) and an open position at which the first and second openings (4, 8) coincide with each other; the cover (6) being provided with a locking mechanism (9) which operates to retain the cover (6) at the closed position when the optical connector (14) for the outer cable is not inserted into the second opening (8) and to release the cover (6 ) from locking at the closed position when the optical connector (14) for the outer cable is inserted into the second opening (8) and allow the same (6) to be slidable to the open position.
