Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of optical fiber fusion splicing, and in particular to an optical fiber cable fusion splicing device, method, terminal, electronic equipment and computer program product. Background Art

[0002] In the field of optical communications, glass optical fiber has strong anti-interference ability due to the characteristics of its basic component quartz. At present, optical fiber is widely used in the field of communications. There are multi-core optical cables with 12 cores, 24 cores and even 288 cores, which are used to carry the complex communication requirements of modern society. The amount of optical cables used in ordinary cities alone can reach hundreds of thousands of kilometers. In daily use, the interruption of a single core can cause multiple PON port failures, resulting in network interruptions for dozens of ordinary households. Therefore, the importance of optical cable maintenance work has become increasingly prominent.

[0003] During routine maintenance work, most faults are caused by cable interruption. The reasons for the interruption include height hazards, construction hazards, and some rat bite hazards. After the cable is interrupted, the maintenance team uses a fiber optic fusion splicer to perform single-core fusion splicing of the bundled optical cable and fix it in a joint box for protection.

[0004] Optical cables are mostly distributed outdoors in a complex environment. The fiber splicing process has high requirements. The distance between the two fiber sections to be spliced ​​is relatively far. When the fiber stripped of the coating is manually transferred to the fiber splicer, the fiber section to be spliced ​​is easily damaged, which can easily cause the optical power to fail to meet the standard after splicing. This results in a lot of rework in the fault repair process and low efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0054] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions in this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0055] Reference Figure 1 The embodiment of the present application provides an optical fiber cable fusion splicing device, including a mounting seat 1, a fusion splicing mechanism 2 and an optical fiber fixing mechanism. The fusion splicing mechanism 2 is arranged on the mounting seat 1, and the fusion splicing mechanism 2 is used to fuse optical fibers; the optical fiber fixing mechanism includes two optical fiber fixing components 3, and the two optical fiber fixing components 3 are respectively arranged on both sides of the fusion splicing mechanism 2. The optical fiber fixing components 3 can be moved close to or away from the fusion splicing mechanism 2. One optical fiber fixing component 3 is used to clamp an optical fiber to be fused, and the other optical fiber fixing component 3 is used to clamp another optical fiber to be fused.

[0056] The optical fiber cable fusion splicing device provided in the embodiment of the present application has a fusion splicing mechanism 2 installed by a mounting seat 1, and the fusion splicing structure is used for optical fiber fusion splicing. A movable optical fiber fixing assembly 3 is respectively provided at both ends of the fusion splicing mechanism 2, and the optical fiber to be fused, which has the outer layer and the coating layer stripped off, is fixed to the optical fiber fixing assembly 3, and the optical fiber to be fused is clamped and moved by the optical fiber fixing assembly 3, so that the optical fiber to be fused moves close to the fusion splicing mechanism 2 to complete the optical fiber fusion splicing. In this way, the transfer path of the optical fiber after the coating layer is stripped off is fixed by the design, which can avoid the situation that the cross section of the optical fiber to be fused is easy to collide with the parts at the fusion position during manual operation, thereby improving the current situation that the cross section of the optical fiber to be fused is easily damaged during the transfer process.

[0057] In this embodiment, the mounting seat 1 is a mounting plate for carrying the fusion mechanism 2 and the optical fiber fixing mechanism, so that the two are fixed on the same surface, which is convenient for optical fiber fusion operation. At the same time, the fusion mechanism 2 and the optical fiber fixing mechanism are installed on the same mounting plate for easy transportation. Of course, in other embodiments, the optical fiber fixing mechanism can also be fixed to other components as long as it can be moved relative to the fusion mechanism 2.

[0058] It should be noted that the optical fiber fixing assembly 3 can be moved closer to or away from the fusion splicing mechanism 2, and its movement mode can be horizontal movement or vertical movement, or can be moved in multiple directions, as long as the optical fiber to be fused clamped by the optical fiber fixing assembly 3 is finally moved to the fusion splicing position of the fusion splicing mechanism 2. Exemplarily, the optical fiber fixing assembly 3 drives the optical fiber to be fused to move above the fusion splicing position through lifting and translation, and then lowers the optical fiber to be fused from above the fusion splicing position to be placed on the fusion splicing mechanism 2. In this way, the optical fiber to be fused is prevented from directly moving horizontally to the fusion splicing mechanism 2 and colliding with the parts of the fusion splicing mechanism 2, which effectively improves the current situation that the cross section of the optical fiber to be fused is easily damaged during the transfer process.

[0059] In one embodiment, a slide rail 11 is included, and the slide rail 11 is disposed on the mounting seat 1. Two optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 are disposed on the slide rail 11 so as to move closer to or farther from each other along the slide rail 11. It can be understood that a slider is provided at the bottom of the optical fiber fixing assembly 3 so as to move on the slide rail 11 through the slider. The two optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 can slide on the same slide rail 11 to ensure that the two optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 move along the same straight line, so as to facilitate the alignment and welding of two sections of optical fibers to be fused. Exemplarily, the slide rail 11 passes through the bottom of the fusion splicing mechanism 2. When the two optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 are close to each other on the slide rail 11, the optical fibers to be fused are driven to approach the fusion splicing mechanism 2, thereby reaching the fusion splicing position. Optionally, a driving structure such as a motor or a driving cylinder is provided at both ends of the slide rail 11 to drive the two optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 to move on the slide rail 11.

[0060] Exemplarily, when the optical fiber fixing assembly 3 clamps the optical fiber to be fused, one end of the optical fiber to be fused protrudes a certain distance from the optical fiber fixing assembly 3 so as to be placed in the fusion splicing mechanism 2 for fusion splicing. For example, the protruding length of the optical fiber to be fused is 10 cm to 20 cm, preferably 15 cm.

[0061] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 In one embodiment, the optical fiber fixing assembly 3 includes a lifting device 31 and a clamping device 32. The lifting device 31 can move along the slide rail 11, and the lifting device 31 is suitable for lifting and lowering; the clamping device 32 is connected to the lifting device 31 and is suitable for lifting and lowering under the drive of the lifting device 31. The clamping device 32 is used to clamp the optical fiber to be fused.

[0062] It can be understood that the clamping device 32 can move on the slide rail 11 driven by the lifting device 31, and the lifting device 31 can also adjust the height of the clamping device 32 by lifting. In this way, the optical fiber to be fused clamped by the clamping device 32 can move to more positions to better avoid the components on the transfer path. Figure 4As shown, exemplarily, the lifting device 31 includes a telescopic rod 311 and an adapter 312. One end of the telescopic rod 311 slides on the slide rail 11 through a slider, and the other end is connected to the adapter 312. The adapter 312 is used to install and connect the clamping device 32. After the coating layer of the optical fiber is stripped, it is clamped in the clamping device 32. In the operation process, the telescopic rod 311 is used to drive the clamping device 32 to rise first, and then the clamping device 32 is transferred to the welding mechanism 2 through the slide rail 11. Finally, the telescopic rod 311 is lowered, so that the optical fiber to be welded is placed in the welding position. In this way, the distance between the two optical fibers to be welded and the probability of cross-section damage when the optical fibers to be welded are manually placed can be effectively reduced, and the welding quality can be ensured. In this way, a high-precision double-degree-of-freedom movement of the optical fiber to be welded is achieved. Under the premise of easy operation, the fixed distance between the cross sections of the two optical fibers to be welded during welding is guaranteed, rework operations are avoided, and the welding quality is effectively improved.

[0063] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the clamping device 32 includes a driving member 323, a first clamping jaw 321 and a second clamping jaw 322. The driving member 323 is connected to the lifting device 31; the first clamping jaw 321 is connected to the driving member 323; the second clamping jaw 322 is connected to the driving member 323 and is spaced apart from the first clamping jaw 321. The driving member 323 drives the first clamping jaw 321 and the second clamping jaw 322 to approach each other to clamp the optical fiber to be fused. The driving member 323 can be a motor or a driving cylinder, as long as it can drive the first clamping jaw 321 and the second clamping jaw 322 to approach or move away from each other. The first clamping jaw 321 and the second clamping jaw 322 are driven by the driving member 323 to approach each other to clamp the optical fiber to be fused. It can be understood that the first clamping jaw 321 and the second clamping jaw 322 are abutted against each other, and a clamping space is formed between the two to accommodate the optical fiber to be fused. After the first clamping jaw 321 and the second clamping jaw 322 are in contact, their positional relationship can be a left-right structure, an up-down structure, or other structures such as a semi-enclosed structure, which is not limited here, as long as they can clamp the optical fiber to be fused.

[0064] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, a first clamp 3211 is provided on the side of the first clamp 321 facing the second clamp 322, and a second clamp 3221 is provided on the side of the second clamp 322 facing the first clamp 321. The first clamp 3211 and the second clamp 3221 are distributed in an upper and lower structure, and the optical fiber to be fused is clamped between the first clamp 3211 and the second clamp 3221.

[0065] It can be understood that the first clamp 3211 and the second clamp 3221 are clamping blocks, both of which are block structures. When the first clamp 3211 and the second clamp 3221 are close to each other, for example, the first clamp 3211 is above the second clamp 3221, the optical fiber to be fused is clamped between the bottom surface of the first clamp 3211 and the top surface of the second clamp 3221, which can effectively limit the displacement of the optical fiber to be fused and achieve smooth movement and fusion of the optical fiber. Of course, the second clamp 3221 can also be above the first clamp 3211, which is not limited here. It should be noted that the driving member 323 drives the first clamp 321 and the second clamp 322 to approach each other, which can make the first clamp 321 and the second clamp 322 move closer to each other in the horizontal direction, or move closer to each other in the vertical direction, or move in a combination of the two directions, which is not limited here.

[0066] In one embodiment, between the first clamp 3211 and the second clamp 3221, at least one of the first clamp 3211 and the second clamp 3221 is provided with a slot 32211. Exemplarily, when the first clamp 3211 is located above the second clamp 3221, a slot 32211 may be provided on the top surface of the second clamp 3221 for placing the optical fiber to be fused, and when the first clamp 3211 and the second clamp 3221 are moved horizontally to approach each other to form an upper and lower structure, the first clamp 3211 covers the notch of the slot 32211 to ensure that the optical fiber to be fused does not separate from the slot 32211, thereby achieving stable clamping. Of course, the slot 32211 may also be provided on both the first clamp 3211 and the second clamp 3221 at the same time to reserve sufficient space to accommodate the optical fiber to be fused. Of course, the moving direction when the first clamp 3211 and the second clamp 3221 are close to each other can be set according to actual conditions to ensure that the optical fiber to be fused is clamped. Optionally, the slot 32211 is a V-shaped groove.

[0067] In one embodiment, at least one of the first clamp 3211 and the second clamp 3221 is made of soft rubber material. Exemplarily, at least one of the first clamp 3211 and the second clamp 3221 is a rubber block to avoid damage to the clamped optical fiber to be fused. Optionally, both the first clamp 3211 and the second clamp 3221 are rubber blocks, and of course, they can also be made of soft rubber materials such as silicone blocks or plastic blocks.

[0068] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6In one embodiment, the fusion mechanism 2 includes a fixed bracket 21 and a fiber fusion splicer 22. The fixed bracket 21 is arranged on the mounting seat 1 and is located between the two fiber fixing components 3; the fiber fusion splicer 22 is arranged on the fixed bracket 21. It can be understood that after the fiber fixing component 3 clamps the optical fiber to be fused, the clamping position is relatively high. In order to facilitate fusion, the fiber fusion splicer 22 is installed on the fixed bracket 21 to elevate the fiber fusion splicer 22. The optical fiber to be fused clamped by the optical fiber fixing component 3 can be aligned with the fusion position of the fiber fusion splicer 22 in the horizontal direction. Exemplarily, the optical fiber fusion splicer 22 is provided with two opposite fusion splicer welding heads 221 and two placement slots 222 corresponding to the two fusion splicer welding heads 221. The optical fiber to be fused can be placed in the placement slot 222, and the fusion splicer welding head 221 completes the fusion of the two optical fibers to be fused.

[0069] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, two optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the fusion splicing mechanism 2. In this way, it is ensured that the moving distance of the two optical fibers to be fused is the same with the fusion splicing mechanism 2 during fusion splicing, which facilitates the precise control of the synchronous movement of the two optical fibers to be fused to the fusion splicing position, thereby improving the fusion splicing quality.

[0070] In one embodiment, the mounting base 1 is provided with a splice box fixing groove 12, and the splice box fixing groove 12 is used to install the splice box. It can be understood that the splice box is installed in the splice box fixing groove 12, that is, during field operation, the splice box and the fusion mechanism 2 are fixed on the mounting base 1 at the same time, and the optical fiber after fusion can be transferred to the splice box for placement, which is convenient for operation.

[0071] In one embodiment, a cover plate 13 is included, and the cover plate 13 is movably connected to the mounting base 1 to cover or open the joint box fixing slot 12. When the welding operation is not performed, the joint box can be removed, and the joint box fixing slot 12 can be covered by the cover plate 13 to prevent other foreign objects from entering the joint box fixing slot 12. The cover plate 13 can be connected to the mounting base 1 by a rotating connection, a sliding connection, etc., so as to open or close the joint box fixing slot 12 when needed.

[0072] In one embodiment, the mounting base 1 is provided with a fiber cleaver groove 14. Exemplarily, the fiber cleaver groove 14 is located between the joint box and the fusion mechanism 2, and the number of the fiber cleaver groove 14 can be two, so as to install two fiber cleavers, and the fixed fiber cleaver cuts the fixed length of the optical fiber. After the cutting is completed, the optical fiber is placed in the optical fiber fixing assembly 3, and the position is identified by the sensor to achieve the clamping of the optical fiber to be fused.

[0073] like Figure 7 As shown, the optical fiber cable fusion splicing method provided by the embodiment of the present application is described below. The optical fiber cable fusion splicing method described below and the optical fiber cable fusion splicing device described above can refer to each other.

[0074] The embodiment of the present application provides a method for fusion splicing optical fiber cables, using the above optical fiber cable fusion splicing device, the steps comprising:

[0075] One optical fiber to be fused, with its outer layer and coating stripped, is fixed to one optical fiber fixing assembly 3, and another optical fiber to be fused, with its outer layer and coating stripped, is fixed to another optical fiber fixing assembly 3; it is understandable that the outer layer and coating of the optical fiber to be fused can be automatically stripped by a mechanical structure, or the outer layer and coating of the optical fiber to be fused can be manually stripped and fixed to the optical fiber fixing assembly 3. The control sensor can be used to detect whether the optical fiber to be fused is clamped at the optical fiber fixing assembly 3, so as to proceed to the next step.

[0076] The two optical fiber fixing components 3 are controlled to move closer to the fusion splicing mechanism 2, so that the two optical fibers to be fused are moved to the fusion splicing position; it should be noted that the optical fiber fixing component 3 can be moved closer to or away from the fusion splicing mechanism 2, and its movement mode can be horizontal movement or vertical movement, or can be moved in multiple directions, as long as the optical fiber to be fused clamped by the optical fiber fixing component 3 is finally moved to the fusion splicing position of the fusion splicing mechanism 2. Exemplarily, the optical fiber fixing component 3 drives the optical fiber to be fused to move above the fusion splicing position through lifting and translation, and then lowers the optical fiber to be fused from above the fusion splicing position to be placed on the fusion splicing mechanism 2. In this way, the optical fiber to be fused is prevented from directly moving horizontally to the fusion splicing mechanism 2 and colliding with the parts of the fusion splicing mechanism 2, which effectively improves the current situation that the cross section of the optical fiber to be fused is easily damaged during the transfer process.

[0077] Control the fusion splicing mechanism 2 to complete the fiber fusion splicing. It can be understood that the two fiber fixing assemblies 3 are used to fix the distance between the two fiber sections to be fused during the fusion splicing and prevent the sections from being scratched. The movement of the fiber fixing assembly 3 can be controlled by an electronic control device such as a stepping motor, and the control accuracy is relatively high.

[0078] In one embodiment, the step of controlling the two optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 to move close to the fusion splicing mechanism 2 so that the two optical fibers to be fused move to the fusion splicing position includes:

[0079] Control the two optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 to lift the two optical fibers to be spliced ​​above the splicing position;

[0080] Control the two optical fiber fixing components 3 to be close to the fusion splicing mechanism 2;

[0081] The two optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 are controlled to descend so that the two optical fibers to be fused are moved to the fusion splicing position. In other words, the optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 are controlled to rise first and then descend, and the optical fibers to be fused are placed at the fusion splicing position from top to bottom to prevent the cross section of the optical fiber from touching other parts. Exemplarily, the two optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 lift the fusion splicing ends of the optical fibers to be fused to a level higher than the fusion splicing mechanism 2 through the telescopic rod 311, and then the two optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 are controlled to translate toward the fusion splicing mechanism 2 so that the fusion splicing ends of the optical fibers to be fused are located above the fusion splicing position, and then the optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 are controlled to descend so that the two optical fibers to be fused are placed at the fusion splicing position to complete the fiber fusion splicing. In this way, the optical fiber to be fused is prevented from directly moving horizontally to the fusion splicing mechanism 2 and colliding with the parts of the fusion splicing mechanism 2, which effectively improves the current situation in which the cross section of the optical fiber to be fused is easily damaged during the transfer process.

[0082] It should be noted that after the fusion splicing is completed, the optical fiber fixing assembly 3 can be controlled to be lifted and automatically reset to the initial position to facilitate the next fusion splicing.

[0083] The terminal involved in the embodiments of the present application may be a device that provides voice and / or data connectivity to a user, a handheld device with a wireless connection function, or other processing devices connected to a wireless modem, etc. In different systems, the name of the terminal device may also be different. For example, in a 5G system, the terminal device may be called a user equipment (UE).

[0084] Figure 8 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a terminal according to an embodiment of the present application. The embodiment of the present application further provides a terminal, which may include: a memory X10, a transceiver X20 and a processor X30;

[0085] The memory X10 is used to store computer programs; the transceiver X20 is used to send and receive data under the control of the processor X30; the processor X30 is used to read the computer program in the memory X10 and perform the following operations:

[0086] Fix one optical fiber to be fused after stripping its outer layer and coating layer to one optical fiber fixing component 3, and fix another optical fiber to be fused after stripping its outer layer and coating layer to another optical fiber fixing component 3;

[0087] Control the two optical fiber fixing assemblies 3 to move close to the fusion splicing mechanism 2, so that the two optical fibers to be fused move to the fusion splicing position;

[0088] Control the fusion splicing mechanism 2 to complete the optical fiber fusion splicing.

[0089] Among them, Figure 8In the embodiment, the bus architecture may include any number of interconnected buses and bridges, specifically one or more processors represented by the processor X30 and various circuits of the memory represented by the memory X10 are linked together. The bus architecture may also link together various other circuits such as peripherals, voltage regulators, and power management circuits, which are well known in the art and are therefore not further described herein. The bus interface provides an interface. The transceiver X20 may be a plurality of components, namely, a transmitter and a receiver, providing a unit for communicating with various other devices on a transmission medium.
