[0046] The optical fiber 10 includes a light guide 11 and an outer cladding 12 wrapped outside the light guide 11. The light guide 11 serves as a light transmission medium, and the outer cladding 12 is wrapped outside the light guide 11. The outer cladding 12 cannot guide light. The outer diameter of the optical fiber 10 is 0.55 mm, and both ends of the optical fiber 10 are polished and polished, with good light guiding effect.
[0047] The fixing frame 20 comprises a lens hole 20, a conductive sheet 22 formed in the lens hole 21 of the fixing frame 20, a pair of fixing holes 23 through the fixing frame 20, and a positioning portion 26 formed at one end of the fixing frame 20.

[0048] For details, see Figure 3 As shown, the fixing hole 23 comprises a main hole section 231, an open section 232 above the main hole section 231, and a limiting section 233 below the main hole section 231. The inner diameter of the main hole section 231 is smaller than that of the open section 232, and the inner diameter of the limiting section 233 is smaller than that of the main hole section 231. The fixing holes 23 are arranged side by side as a pair, and the open section 232 is trumpet-shaped upward and serves as a demolding opening.

At this time, in a free state, the gap between the optical fiber 10 and the main hole section 231 is between 0.01-0.03, which meets the customer's quality requirements.
[0052] After the optical fiber 10 is loaded into the fixing hole 23, the dispensing device injects glue along the open section 232, so that the glue is contained outside the open section 232 to fix the optical fiber 10 in the fixing hole 23.

A limiting step 234 is formed above the joint of the limiting section 233 and the main hole section 231.
[0056] S102, providing an optical fiber 10 and adding a coating layer 13 outside the optical fiber 10;
[0057] The outer diameter of the optical fiber 10 is 0.55 mm, the outer diameter after adding the coating layer 13 is greater than 0.57 mm and less than 0.59 mm, and the inner diameter of the main hole section 231 is 0.60 mm. The optical fiber 10 comprises a light guide body 11 and an outer cladding layer 12 wrapped outside the light guide body 11, and the coating layer is wrapped on the outer surface of the outer cladding layer 12.

[0069] The lower suspension part 3362 is provided with a slot 3363 between a pair of positioning holes 3364, which is used to accommodate the spacer 25 between a pair of fixing holes 23 of the fixing frame 20. The longitudinal outer side of a pair of positioning holes 3364 is of an open structure and forms an open mouth 3365, which exposes the upper end part of the optical fiber 10 to the exposure hole 335. The arc length of the open mouth 3365 is not greater than one third of the arc length of the positioning hole 3364.

[0070] The middle plate 32 and the cover plate 33 are also provided with a plurality of bolt holes 323, 333 at positions corresponding to the bolt holes 314 of the base 31. The base 31, the middle plate 32 and the cover plate 33 are fixed together by bolt bars passing through the bolt holes 314.
[0071] In this embodiment, the optical fiber 10 is fixed to the fixing hole 23 of the fixing frame 20 by point gluing, without the need to spray glue on the outer surface of the optical fiber 10 to increase the thickness as in the first embodiment.

[0078] In this step, the limiting protruding column 313 supports upward to keep the optical fiber 10 balanced, so as to make the optical fiber 10 keep better coaxiality with the fixing hole 23. At this time, the top of the optical fiber 10 is located in the positioning hole section 3367 of the positioning hole 3364, so that the optical fiber 10 keeps better coaxiality with the fixing hole 23 to make up for the problem of lower coaxiality caused by the larger inner diameter of the fixing hole 23.
[0079] S204, dispensing glue into the open section 232 through the open hole 3365 outside the longitudinal direction of the positioning hole 3364 and curing the glue.
[0080] The base 31, the middle plate 32 and the cover plate 33 of the dispensing device are made of transparent material. After dispensing, the dispensing device is irradiated by a UV light source to cure the glue.

When dispensing glue on the upper end of the optical fiber 10, the optical fiber 10 is limited in the positioning hole 336 to keep good coaxiality between the optical fiber 10 and the fixing hole 23 of the fixing frame 20.
[0085] Example three
[0086] Please refer to Figures 13 to 15As shown, it is the drawing of the demolding device 40 of the third embodiment. In step S205 of the second embodiment, the fixed frame 20 and the optical fiber 10 fixed thereon need to be removed from the dispensing device. During the removal process, the inner diameter of the positioning hole segment 3367 of the positioning hole 3364 of the cover plate 33 is very close to the outer diameter of the optical fiber 10 accommodated in the positioning hole segment 3367, resulting in a very small gap between the top of the optical fiber 10 and the inner wall surface of the positioning hole segment 3367. By pulling the fixed frame 20 downward by force, if the downward force is slightly offset, it will cause the optical fiber 10 to be scratched and damaged by the positioning hole segment 3367.
[0087] Therefore, a special demolding device is needed to solve the above technical problems.
[0088] The demolding device of the present embodiment includes a bottom plate 41, a lower pressing plate 42, a sleeve 43 supporting the bottom plate 41 and the lower pressing plate 42, and a spring (not shown) sleeved outside the sleeve 43 and supported between the bottom plate 41 and the lower pressing plate 42.
[0089] The bottom plate 41 includes a bottom plate body 411, a support column 413 protruding upward from the middle of the bottom plate body 411, and a support block 414 protruding upward from the top of the support column 413. The lower pressing plate 42 includes a lower pressing plate body 421, a pair of protrusions 423 protruding upward from the lower pressing plate body 421 in the transverse or longitudinal direction, and a through hole 424 penetrating the lower pressing plate body 421 and located between the pair of protrusions 423. The bottom plate 41 and the lower pressing plate 42 are also provided with bolt holes 412, 422 for installing the sleeve 43. The support column 413 passes through the through hole 424 of the lower pressing plate 42 and makes the top of the support block 414 protrude upward beyond the upper surface of the protrusion 423.
[0090] The cover plate 33 is inverted on the protrusions 423 and positioned by some positioning structures. At this time, the part of the fixed frame 20 near the optical fiber 10 is supported on the support block 414. Then, the cover plate 33 is pressed downward, so that the fixed frame 20 with the optical fiber 10 is supported on the support block 414, and the cover plate 33 moves downward, so that the head of the optical fiber 10 is separated from the positioning hole segment 3367. Further, the optical fiber 10 of the optical fiber transmission device of the present application is separated from the positioning hole segment 3367 of the cover plate 33 without damage.
[0091] The demolding method of the optical fiber transmission module of the present application includes the following steps:
[0092] S301, providing a demolding device 40;
[0093] The specific structure of the demolding device 40 has been described in detail above, and will not be repeated here.
[0094] S302, the cover plate 33 and the optical fiber 10 thereon are inverted on the convex strip 423 of the lower pressing plate 42 of the dispensing device 40;
[0095] In this step, the support block 414 of the support column 413 supports the fixing frame 20 upward, and the support position is adjusted to keep the fixing frame 20 in stable balance, especially to support the fixing frame 20 around the optical fiber 10.
[0096] S303, the cover plate 33 is pressed downward to separate the optical fiber 10 from the positioning hole segment 3367 and separate the optical fiber transmission module 20 from the cover plate 33;
