Performance tester for loose fiber bushing

Abstract

The invention relates to a performance tester for a loose fiber bushing. The tester comprises clamping blocks, a fixed plate, an OTDR tester and a calibrated scale; each clamping block is provided with a first pressure sensor and a second pressure sensor, the first pressure sensor detects the magnitude of a pressure towards the inside after that the loose fiber bushing is coiled into a circle, and the second pressure sensor detects the magnitude of a resilience towards the outside after that the loose fiber bushing is coiled into the circle; chutes are formed in the fixed plate, and the clamping blocks are arranged in the chutes in a sliding way respectively; the OTDR tester detects the loss of a fiber in the loose fiber bushing; and the calibrated scale is arranged on the fixed plate and measures the diameter of the circle formed by coiling the loose fiber bushing. The performance tester is simple and convenient in operation, can measure real-time data including the hardness, bending resistance, pressure resistance, bending rebounding capability and fiber loss of the loose fiber bushing, and provide different aspects of novel data support for improvement of the loose fiber bushing.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber loose tube detection, in particular to a device for testing the performance of an optical fiber loose tube. Background technique [0002] One of the functions of the optical fiber loose tube in the optical cable is to provide deformation buffer and mechanical protection for the optical fiber. Therefore, the hardness, bending resistance, compression resistance, and bending resilience of the optical fiber loose tube have an It plays an important role. At present, the hardness, bending resistance, compression resistance, and bending resilience of optical fiber loose tubes need to be measured by special instruments. The measurement time is long and the space required for the measurement equipment is large. [0003] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a solution that can simultaneously measure the above four parameters and obtain real-time data of fiber loss. Contents of the invention [000...
