Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of optical fiber communication technology equipment, specifically to a cleaver operating table for an optical fiber fusion splicer. Background Technology

[0002] Before fiber optic splicing, the fiber needs to be cut with a cleaver, and the end of the fiber must be flat even after being magnified hundreds of times before it can be used for discharge splicing.

[0003] After optical fiber discharge splicing, heat shrink tubing is needed to fix the spliced ​​optical fiber. After the heat shrink tubing is finished, the optical fiber wrapped in ultra-high temperature heat shrink tubing cannot be placed on a desktop or plastic object to cool down. It needs to be placed on a special high temperature resistant support. The existing fusion splicer cleaver operating table usually sets the top of the fusion splicer carrying case or bag as the cleaver operating platform.

[0004] However, the existing welding machine cutting knife operating table has the following disadvantages:

[0005] 1. Generally, the cutting operation platform is the top of the welding machine's carrying case or bag. It is bulky, inconvenient to carry, occupies a large area during operation, and is not stable.

[0006] 2. The welding machine, cutting blade, and cooling tray should be closely related. In existing products, the operating space for the three is not concentrated, resulting in low work efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cleaver operating table for a fiber optic fusion splicer, solving the problems of traditional fusion splicer cleaver operating tables, which typically use the top of the fusion splicer's carrying case or bag as the cutting operation platform. These tables are bulky, inconvenient to carry, occupy a large operating area, and are unstable. Furthermore, the fusion splicer, cleaver, and cooling tray should be closely integrated; existing products suffer from a lack of centralized operating space for these three components, resulting in low work efficiency.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a cleaver operating table for a fiber optic fusion splicer, comprising a fusion splicer body, an adjustable support structure, a rotating seat structure, an adjustable baffle structure, a cleaver body, and a cooling tray structure.

A movable mounting slot is provided at the location, and the movable bracket is movably installed in the movable mounting slot. One end of the fastening knob passes through the fixed base B via a threaded connection, and the fastening knob abuts against the movable bracket. The flipping platform is installed at the top of the movable bracket via a damping pin, and two protrusions are provided at the flipping platform.

[0009] Preferably, the minimum included angle between the flipping platform and the movable support on the side away from the main body of the welding machine is 93°.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0023] As shown in Figures 1-6, the present invention provides a technical solution: a cleaver operating table for an optical fiber fusion splicer, comprising a fusion splicer body 1, an adjustable support structure, a rotating seat structure, an adjustable baffle structure, a cleaver body 2, and a cooling tray structure. The adjustable support structure is installed on one side of the fusion splicer body 1, the rotating seat structure is installed on the adjustable support structure, the adjustable baffle structure is installed on the rotating seat structure, the cleaver body 2 is installed on the rotating seat structure, and the cooling tray structure is installed on the adjustable support structure.

[0024] The adjustable support structure includes a fixed base A3, a fixed base B4, a fastening knob 5, a movable support 6, and a flipping platform 7. The fixed base A3 is fixedly installed on one side of the welding machine body 1 by multiple screws. The fixed base B4 is fixedly installed on one side of the fixed base A3. The fixed base B4 is provided with a movable mounting groove, and the movable support 6 is movably installed in the movable mounting groove. One end of the fastening knob 5 passes through the fixed base B4 through a threaded connection, and the fastening knob 5 abuts against the movable support 6. The flipping platform 7 is installed on the top of the movable support 6 by a damping pin. The flipping platform 7 is provided with two protrusions 8, so that the height of the movable support 6 can be adjusted up and down according to actual needs by loosening the fastening knob, thereby adjusting the height of the flipping platform 7 for better subsequent use.

[0025] The minimum included angle between the flipping platform 7 and the movable support 6 on the side away from the welding machine body 1 is 93°, which allows the subsequent operating surface to be at a 3° elevation angle to the horizontal plane, which is in line with ergonomics. At the same time, it also avoids the risk of the flipping platform 7 tipping backward due to the excessive weight of the subsequent cutting blade body 2.

[0026] The rotating base structure includes a rotating support base 9, a rotating platform 10, and a hand-tightening handle 11. The rotating support base 9 is installed on the upper surface of the flipping platform 7. The rotating platform 10 is fixedly installed on the top of the rotating support base 9. The top of the hand-tightening handle 11 is threaded through the flipping platform 7 and threadedly connected to the rotating support base 9. The cutting blade body 2 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the rotating platform 10. A slot is provided on one side of the front of the rotating platform 10, so that the angle of the rotating platform 10 can be adjusted by loosening the hand-tightening handle 11 and rotating it left and right according to actual needs. After adjustment, tightening the hand-tightening handle 11 can fix the rotating platform 10 and close its rotation state, which facilitates the operation and work of the cutting blade body 2.

[0027] The adjustable baffle structure includes a hand-tightening screw 12, guide rods 13, and a baffle body 14. The hand-tightening screw 12 is threadedly installed in a slot on one side of the front of the rotary table 10. Two guide rods 13 are provided, and both guide rods 13 are fixedly installed in the slot on one side of the front of the rotary table 10. The baffle body 14 is threadedly fitted onto the outside of the hand-tightening screw 12, and the baffle body 14 is movably sleeved with the two guide rods 13. This allows the hand-tightening screw 12 to be rotated according to actual needs, thereby cooperating with the two guide rods 13 to move the baffle and adjust its position. This makes it suitable for various types of cutting blades, thus improving its applicability.

[0028] The cooling tray structure includes a cooling tray body 15 and a magnet 16. The cooling tray body 15 has two slots at its bottom. The magnet 16 is fixedly installed at the top of the flipping platform 7 and is located between two protrusions 8. The two slots are respectively engaged with the two protrusions 8, and the tray body 15 is attracted to the magnet 16, so that optical fibers wrapped with ultra-high temperature heat shrink tubing can be placed through the cooling tray body 15, and the cooling tray body 15 is easy to install and disassemble.

[0029] Working Principle: During operation, the adjustable bracket structure is fixed on the fusion splicer, integrating the placement space of the cleaver body 2 and the cooling tray body 15. This integrates the main workflow of fiber optic fusion splicing into one operating environment, effectively improving the efficiency of fiber optic fusion splicing. It is also portable, occupies a small area, and has high stability. The height of the movable bracket 6 can be adjusted up and down by loosening the tightening knob, thereby adjusting the height of the flip platform 7 for better subsequent use. Simultaneously, the angle of the rotating table 10 can be adjusted by loosening the hand-tightening handle 11 and rotating it left and right. After adjustment, tightening the hand-tightening handle 11 will fix the rotating table 10, closing its rotation. This facilitates the angle adjustment of the cleaver body 2 for easier operation. Alternatively, the hand-tightening screw 12 can be rotated to move the baffle body 14 in conjunction with the two guide rods 13, thereby adjusting the position of the baffle body 14. This allows it to be used with various types of cleavers, increasing its applicability.
