Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of optical fiber hoisting clamp, in particular to an optical fiber preform hoisting clamp. BACKGROUND

[0002] Optical fiber preform (English name: Optical Fiber Preform or Fiber Preform) is a quartz glass rod with a specific refractive index profile and is used to manufacture optical fiber (optical fiber for short). The internal structure of the optical fiber is formed in the preform.

[0003] Because the production of the preform is the most important part of the optical fiber process, since the large-scale production of optical fiber began in the late 1970s, the research and improvement of the optical fiber preform manufacturing technology has never stopped.

[0004] When manufacturing optical fiber, people first make optical fiber preform. There are many methods for making optical rods, and the commonly used manufacturing process is the vapor phase oxidation method. In the vapor phase oxidation method, high-purity metal halide vapor and oxygen react to form some oxide particles, which are deposited on the surface of the glass or quartz body (or the inner wall of the tubular body), and then sintered to form a transparent glass rod (if it is a tube, it also needs to be shrunk to become a rod). At this time, the optical rod has the basic structure of the optical fiber.

[0005] After the optical fiber preform is made, it needs to be hoisted into the drawing machine for drawing. Since the optical fiber preform is heavy, during the hoisting process of the optical fiber preform, due to the instability of the hoisting machine, the optical fiber preform may shake in the air, not only making the whole hoisting process unstable, but also possibly causing the optical fiber preform to collide, resulting in damage to the optical fiber preform. And because each can only hoist a single optical fiber preform, the operation steps are more, greatly reducing the hoisting efficiency. SUMMARY
