The invention discloses an intelligent gel
coating device for
optical fiber cables. The intelligent gel
coating device comprises a longitudinal covering rack, a support frame, a gel
storage tank, a spraying head mechanism, a
microcontroller, an electronic scale and a support mechanism, two X-direction linear rails are fixed on the surface of a
base station of the support frame, the spraying head mechanism is mounted on a carrying plate and comprises a gel storage cavity, one end of the gel storage cavity is connected with a first port of a tee joint, a second port and a third port of the tee joint are connected with a gel inlet
pipe and a pressure gauge respectively, the other end of the gel storage cavity is connected with a gel spraying
nozzle, one support rod and the support mechanism are disposed on two sides of the gel spraying
nozzle respectively and below the same, passages for conveying a
metal strip are formed between the gel spraying
nozzle and the support rod as well as between the spraying nozzle and the support mechanism, a gel supplying
pipe is connected to the upper portion of the gel
storage tank, an electric valve is mounted on the gel supplying
pipe, the
microcontroller is connected to a
servo motor, the electronic scale and the electric valve, and the
servo motor is mounted on a gel delivering pipe. The intelligent gel
coating device for the
optical fiber cables has the advantages that positions of the gel spraying head and the
metal strip can be adjusted conveniently, position accuracy in gel spraying is guaranteed, quantity of gel stored in the gel
storage tank can be judged automatically, and gel storage and full
automation in gel supply are achieved.
