[0016] The following is a further specific description of a heat shrink device and an optical cable branch heat shrink device described in the present invention in conjunction with the embodiments. For the sake of simplicity of description, this document cannot list all the alternative technical features and implementation schemes contained in the present invention. Therefore, those skilled in the art should know that any technical features and implementation schemes in this embodiment do not limit the scope of protection of the present invention, which includes any alternative technical features and implementation schemes adopted by all those skilled in the art without creative labor. Specifically, the implementation schemes obtained by replacing any technical feature in the present invention or combining any two or more technical features provided by the present invention should be within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] This embodiment provides a heat shrink device, such as Figure 1 , 2 The heat shrink device includes: Accommodation assembly 10; the accommodation assembly 10 includes symmetrically arranged accommodation components 11, a temperature control area for heating or cooling is formed between the accommodation components 11, and the accommodation component 11 is provided with a plurality of groove structures 12 for accommodating and fixing optical cable branches; The cover assembly 20 is used to cover the accommodating assembly 10 and form a closed heat shrinkable cavity 30 together with the accommodating assembly 10; Heating assembly 40; the heating assembly 40 is disposed inside the cover assembly 20, and the heating assembly 40 is used to heat the heat shrink cavity 30; Cooling assembly 50 ; The cooling assembly 50 is disposed below the accommodating assembly 10 , and the cooling assembly 50 is used to cool the heat shrink cavity 30 .

[0018] The optical cable branch is fixed at a specific position in the device through the groove structure 12 in the accommodating component 10 to ensure that the optical cable branch will not move during the heating and cooling process; the heating component 40 is located inside the cover component 20, and after startup, it will heat the closed heat shrink cavity 30, so that the temperature in the cavity is evenly increased. At this time, the heat shrink material on the surface of the optical cable branch shrinks at high temperature, completing the heat shrink operation of the optical cable branch; after the heat shrink operation is completed, the cooling component 50 starts to work to cool the heat shrink cavity 30. The cooling component 50 is located below the accommodating component 10, and the temperature is quickly reduced through the air duct or other cooling means to prevent the heat shrink material from being deformed or having appearance defects due to overheating.

[0019] In some embodiments, Figure 3 The accommodating component 11 includes a first locking member 14 ; first limiting grooves 13 are formed at both ends of the accommodating component 11 , and the first locking member 14 is disposed in the first limiting grooves 13 to adjust and fix the relative position of the accommodating component 11 .

[0020] By providing the first limiting grooves 13 at both ends of the accommodating component 11 and combining with the first locking member 14, the relative position of the accommodating component 11 can be flexibly adjusted, thereby improving the flexibility and adaptability of the equipment, and being able to be adjusted according to the sizes and requirements of different optical cable branches to meet the application requirements of various specifications; secondly, through the firm fixing function of the first locking member 14, the stability during the heating and cooling process is ensured, deformation or quality problems of the optical cable branches caused by position movement are avoided, and the accuracy of the heat shrinkage operation is enhanced; in addition, the operation process of the equipment is simplified, and after pre-locking the component position, the risk of operator misoperation is reduced, thereby improving the safety of the operation.

[0021] In some embodiments, Figure 4 The cover assembly 20 includes a cover plate component 21 and a symmetrically arranged heat collecting plate component 22; The heat collecting plate component 22 includes a second locking member 223 and a heat collecting plate 221. Second limiting grooves 222 are provided at both ends of the heat collecting plate 221. The heat collecting plate 221 is connected to the cover plate component 21 through the second locking member 223 passing through the second limiting grooves 222. The heat collecting plate 221 covers the accommodating assembly and is used to collect and utilize the dissipated heat.

[0022] The cover assembly 20 includes a cover plate component 21 and a symmetrically arranged heat collecting plate component 22. The heat collecting plate component 22 is connected to the second limiting groove 222 through a second locking member 223, and can be stably fixed on the cover plate component 21, ensuring that the heat is evenly distributed during the heating process, and effectively collecting and utilizing the dissipated heat energy, thereby improving the heat energy utilization rate and the heating efficiency of the equipment; in addition, the modular structure of the heat collecting plate 221 is not only easy to disassemble and maintain, but also improves the flexibility of the equipment and can be adjusted according to different needs. By optimizing the transfer and utilization of heat, the structure improves the efficiency, stability and safety of the equipment while reducing energy consumption and operational risks.

[0023] In some embodiments, Figure 4 The cover assembly 20 further includes an infrared sensing component 24, which is disposed outside the cover plate component 21. An infrared sensing control component 15 is disposed on the top of the accommodating component 11. The infrared sensing control component 15 is used to automatically disconnect the power supply of the heating component 40 after sensing the infrared spectrum of the human body.

[0024] The infrared sensing component 24 can detect the infrared spectrum of the human body in real time. When a person approaches the equipment, the infrared sensing control component 15 will automatically disconnect the power supply of the heating component 40 to avoid safety risks that may arise during high-temperature operation. It not only improves the safety of operation and effectively prevents misoperation and burns, but also reduces manual intervention by automatically controlling the power supply, making the operation more intelligent.

[0025] In some embodiments, Figure 2 The cooling assembly 50 includes an air supply component 51 and an air guide component 52 ; one end of the air guide component 52 is connected to the air supply component 51 , and the other end is connected to the heat shrink cavity 30 .

[0026] One end of the air duct component 52 is connected to the air supply component 51, and the other end is connected to the heat shrink cavity 30, so that cold air can quickly enter the cavity for cooling, effectively avoiding the problem of material deformation caused by slow natural cooling speed; this structure not only makes the cooling process more efficient, but also ensures a uniform temperature drop by precisely controlling the flow of cold air, thereby ensuring the appearance and quality consistency of the product; the rapid cooling capability of the cooling component 50 reduces the waiting time for each operation and improves the continuous working capacity and production efficiency of the equipment.

[0027] In some embodiments, Figure 1 , 4 A first protection net 31 is disposed in the heat shrink cavity 30 , and a second protection net 23 is disposed inside the cover assembly 20 .

[0028] The dual protection of the first protective net 31 and the second protective net 23 can effectively prevent foreign matter from entering the interior of the equipment, reduce equipment damage and product quality problems, and at the same time provide safety protection for operators and reduce the risk of scalding during high-temperature operations; in addition, the presence of the protective net makes the heat shrinking process more stable, ensures uniform temperature distribution, and improves product consistency and processing quality.

[0033] The control integrated component 300 includes a start controller 3001, a shutdown controller 3002, a temperature controller 3003, a heating timer 3004 and a cooling timer 3005. Each controller is electrically connected to different components of the equipment to ensure efficient operation and easy operation of the equipment.
