When the sliding post slides to the left half of the horizontal groove 1, the cutter abuts against the limit plate, and then the sliding post continues to slide along the horizontal groove 2, the piston rod slides inside the piston cylinder, and the spring 1 is squeezed and contracted; then the motor drives the gear to rotate in the opposite direction, and the sleeve and the optical fiber jumper accommodating tube move away from each other, and the sliding post first moves along the inclined groove 1, and the distance between the two clamping plates gradually decreases, so that the two clamping plates are clamped on the surface of the optical fiber jumper, and the elasticity of the spring 1 is gradually released, but the cutter still remains against the limit plate, and the two cutters approach each other to shear the coating of the optical fiber jumper; thereby achieving the purpose of automatically shearing the coating of the optical fiber jumper; 2. The optical fiber patch cord connector fixing structure extends the cylinder output end, driving the slide to rise, causing the optical fiber patch cord accommodating tube to rise, so that the stripped optical fiber patch cord is aligned with the optical fiber patch cord connector inside the connector slot. Then, the motor drives the gear to rotate, and the rack plate 1 and the rack plate 2 move toward each other, thereby causing the optical fiber patch cord accommodating tube and the connector slot to move toward each other, so that the stripped glass core is inserted into the optical fiber patch cord connector; thereby achieving the purpose of automatically docking the optical fiber patch cord and the connector; 3. The optical fiber jumper connector fixing structure, the sliding column moves along the piston cylinder, the clamping plate clamps the optical fiber jumper coating and moves to the right, the optical fiber jumper accommodating tube drives the optical fiber jumper to move to the left, so that the coating is separated from the glass core, and then the left pressure plate squeezes the frame bracket, the right push rod is pulled out from the installation square tube, and the left push rod squeezes an inclined surface of the wedge plate, so that the squeezing column moves upward through the linear groove and enters the inside of the sleeve, so that the squeezing column squeezes the peeled coating; then, the optical fiber jumper coating tube and the sleeve move toward each other, so that the peeled coating stays inside the right end of the sleeve; when the sleeve makes the next reciprocating movement, the coating inside the right end of the sleeve is pushed out by the next peeled coating, thereby achieving the purpose of automatically discharging the peeled optical fiber jumper coating.

[0019] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0020] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 A fiber optic jumper connector fixing structure includes a holding box 100. Two brackets 200 are fixedly installed on the top of the right half of the holding box 100. A connector slot 300 is slidably connected between the two brackets 200. An end covering member 400 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the connector slot 300. The end covering member 400 is used to accommodate and support the end of the fiber optic jumper. A cutting assembly 500 is provided at the left end of the end covering member 400, and a guide assembly 600 is provided between the cutting assembly 500 and the bracket 200. A fixing assembly 700 is slidably connected to the left half of the holding box 100. A reverse moving drive member 800 is provided between the fixing assembly 700 and the end covering member 400. A stripping assembly 900 is fixedly installed on the bottom wall of the right end of the holding box 100. The stripping assembly 900 is used to push out the fiber optic jumper coating layer remaining inside the end covering member 400.
[0021] See also Figure 4 The end covering 400 includes a sleeve 401. The top of the sleeve 401 is fixed to the connector slot 300 via a fixing piece 402. The connector slot 300 is used to accommodate the fiber optic patch cord connector. The left end of the sleeve 401 is located below the right half of the connector slot 300. Extended square grooves 403 are fixedly installed on the front and back sides of the sleeve 401. A guide groove 404 is defined through the left end of the extended square groove 403. A linear groove 405 is defined through the bottom of the sleeve 401. A left pressure plate 406 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the left end of the sleeve 401, and a right pressure plate 407 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the right end of the sleeve 401. Both the left pressure plate 406 and the right pressure plate 407 are U-shaped.
[0022] The reverse-moving drive 800 drives the sleeve 401 and the fixed assembly 700 to move toward each other, allowing the end of the optical fiber jumper to be inserted into the sleeve 401. Then, the shearing assembly 500 shears the coating of the optical fiber jumper. The reverse-moving drive 800 then drives the sleeve 401 and the fixed assembly 700 to the opposite side. The shearing assembly 500 clamps the coating of the optical fiber jumper and moves to the right, separating the coating of the optical fiber jumper from the glass core. When the left end of the end coating member 400 moves above the stripping assembly 900, the stripping assembly 900 passes through the linear groove 405 and is inserted into the sleeve 401. The stripping assembly 900 squeezes the coating of the optical fiber jumper inside the sleeve 401. Then, the reverse-moving drive 800 drives the sleeve 401 and the fixed assembly 700 to move toward each other again, and the coating of the optical fiber jumper is separated from the right end of the sleeve 401.
[0023] See also Figure 5-Figure 6 The shearing assembly 500 comprises two clamping plates 501, which are slidably connected within two extending square slots 403. A piston rod 502 is fixedly mounted on the left end of the clamping plate 501. The piston rod 502 passes through the guide slot 404. A piston cylinder 503 is sleeved around the piston rod 502. A spring 504 is fixedly mounted between the left end of the piston rod 502 and the inner wall of the piston cylinder 503. A cutter 505 is fixedly mounted on the left end of the piston cylinder 503. The elasticity of the spring 504 forces the cutter 505 to move away from the clamping plate 501. Opposing sides of the two cutters 505 have semicircular blades, the radius of which is equal to the diameter of the fiber optic patch cable's glass core. Therefore, when the two cutters 505 come into contact with each other, they can cut the fiber optic patch cable's sheath.
[0024] An L-shaped support arm 506 is fixedly mounted on the left side of each clamping plate 501, facing away from the clamping plate 501. An L-shaped support arm 506 is fixedly mounted on the end of the L-shaped support arm 506 away from the clamping plate 501. A sliding post 508 is slidably connected to the top of the L-shaped support arm 506. The top of the sliding post 508 is hemispherical, and a second spring 509 is fixedly mounted between the bottom end of the sliding post 508 and the inner wall of the sleeve 507. The sliding post 508 slides along the guide assembly 600.
[0025] When the sleeve 401 moves from right to left, the guide assembly 600 guides the slide 508, widening the gap between the two clamping plates 501. This prevents the clamping plates 501 from obstructing the fiber patch cord during insertion into the sleeve 401. During the initial phase of the sleeve 401's movement from left to right, the slide 508, guided by the guide assembly 600, moves the two clamping plates 501 closer together, securing the fiber patch cord. The two cutters 505 shear the fiber patch cord's cladding. Subsequently, as the sleeve 401 continues its movement from left to right, the clamping plates 501 move while gripping the fiber patch cord's cladding, separating it from the glass core. During the initial phase of the sleeve 401's movement from right to left, the two clamping plates 501 move away from each other, releasing the peeled cladding.
[0026] See also Figure 6 The guide assembly 600 includes a mounting plate 601 fixedly mounted on the bottom of the bracket 200, a limit plate 602 fixedly mounted on the left end of the mounting plate 601, the limit plate 602 is attached to the left side of the cutter 505, a parallelogram groove is provided at the bottom of the mounting plate 601, and one-way limit members are provided at the corners of the parallelogram, and the sliding column 508 is connected in the parallelogram by sliding in the counterclockwise direction.
[0027] The parallelogram groove consists of horizontal groove 1 603, inclined groove 1 604, horizontal groove 2 605, and inclined groove 2 606. The horizontal groove 1 603, inclined groove 1 604, horizontal groove 2 605 and inclined groove 2 606 are arranged in a clockwise direction, and the distance between the horizontal groove 1 603 and the clamping plate 501 is smaller than the distance between the clamping plate 501 and the end covering part 400. The angle between the horizontal groove 1 603 and the inclined groove 1 604 is an obtuse angle; the one-way limit member is a boss 607, the thickness of the boss 607 is smaller than the depth of the parallelogram groove, and an inclined surface is provided on the rear half of the boss 607 in the counterclockwise direction.
[0028] When the slide post 508 is located within the second horizontal groove 605, the distance between the two clamping plates 501 is large, preventing the fiber optic patch cord inside the sleeve 401 from being clamped. As the slide post 508 slides along the first inclined groove 604, the distance between the two clamping plates 501 gradually decreases, clamping the fiber optic patch cord. As the slide post 508 slides along the first horizontal groove 603, the two clamping plates 501 maintain their grip on the fiber optic patch cord's sheath. As the slide post 508 slides along the second inclined groove 606, the distance between the two clamping plates 501 gradually increases.
[0029] When the slide post 508 passes through the boss 607 in the counterclockwise direction, the inclined surface of the boss 607 will squeeze the slide post 508, causing the slide post 508 to slide into the sleeve 507, and the spring 2 509 is compressed; after the slide post 508 passes over the boss 607, the slide post 508 pops out from the sleeve 507 under the elastic action of the spring 2 509, and the popped-out slide post 508 is blocked by the boss 607 and moves in the clockwise direction.
[0030] See also Figure 7-Figure 8 The fixing assembly 700 includes a lower arc cover 701. Four sets of guide rods 702 are fixedly mounted on the top of the lower arc cover 701. A top plate 703 is fixedly mounted on the top of the four sets of guide rods 702. An upper arc cover 704 is slidably connected to the guide rods 702. The lower arc cover 701 and the upper arc cover 704 form a fiber optic patch cord storage tube. An extrusion member is provided through the upper arc cover 704. The extrusion member applies vertical pressure to the fiber optic patch cord inside the fiber optic patch cord storage tube, ensuring that the fiber optic patch cord is stably placed in the fiber optic patch cord storage tube. A separator is provided between the upper arc cover 704 and the top plate 703. The separator is used to drive the upper arc cover 704 to move up and down. The separator drives the upper arc cover 704 to move upward, increasing the distance between the upper arc cover 704 and the lower arc cover 701, allowing the fiber optic patch cord and its end connector to be removed from between the lower arc cover 701 and the upper arc cover 704. Support members are provided at both ends of the fiber optic patch cord storage tube.
[0031] The extrusion part includes an array of arch frames 705 fixed on the top of the upper arc cover 704, with an insertion rod 706 slidingly connected through the center of the arch frame 705, and an extrusion block 707 fixedly installed at the bottom end of the insertion rod 706. The extrusion block 707 is slidingly connected to the upper arc cover 704, and a spring 708 is fixedly installed between the top of the extrusion block 707 and the arch frame 705. The upper arc cover 704 is first driven upward by the separation component to increase the distance between the upper arc cover 704 and the lower arc cover 701, which makes it easier to place the optical fiber jumper between the lower arc cover 701 and the upper arc cover 704. After that, the upper arc cover 704 is driven down by the separation component, and the upper arc cover 704 is attached to the lower arc cover 701 to cover the optical fiber jumper. The extrusion block 707 is attached to the surface of the optical fiber jumper, and the elasticity of the spring three 708 is used to ensure the extrusion force of the extrusion block 707 on the optical fiber jumper, preventing the optical fiber jumper from escaping from the optical fiber jumper accommodating tube.
[0032] The separating member includes a threaded rod 709 rotatably connected to the bottom of the top plate 703. The threaded rod 709 is arranged along the length of the top plate 703. A U-shaped slide 710 is threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod 709. The U-shaped slide 710 has a threaded hole in the middle. The U-shaped slide 710 is slidably connected to the bottom of the top plate 703. A horizontal column 711 is fixedly mounted on the opposite sides of the U-shaped slide 710. Two vertical plates 712 are fixedly mounted on the top of the upper arc cover 704. The vertical plates 712 have inclined grooves 713 extending through their surfaces. The two vertical plates 712 are respectively clamped on the front and rear sides of the U-shaped slide 710. The horizontal column 711 is slidably connected within the inclined grooves 713. By screwing the threaded rod 709, the U-shaped slide 710 is driven to move in the left and right directions. The horizontal column 711 squeezes the vertical plates 712 through the inner wall of the inclined grooves 713, driving the upper arc cover 704 to rise or fall.
[0033] The support member includes a left guide frame 714 and a right guide frame 718. The left guide frame 714 is fixedly mounted in the middle of the left end of the container 100. A slide 715 is slidably connected to the left guide frame 714. A cylinder 716 is fixedly mounted inside the slide 715. A ridge 717 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the lower support arc cover 701. The lower support arc cover 701 is slidably connected to the slide 715 via the ridge 717. The right ends of the lower support arc cover 701 and the upper cover arc cover 704 pass through the interior of the right guide frame 718. Two semicircular flanges 719 are fixedly mounted on the outer walls of the right ends of the lower support arc cover 701 and the upper cover arc cover 704. The two semicircular flanges 719 are clamped on the left and right sides of the right guide frame 718. By contracting the output end of the cylinder 716, the slide 715 is driven to descend, thereby causing the fiber optic jumper accommodating tube to descend and causing the axis of the fiber optic jumper accommodating tube to coincide with the axis of the sleeve 401, facilitating the insertion of the fiber optic jumper into the interior of the sleeve 401; by extending the output end of the cylinder 716, the slide 715 is driven to rise, causing the fiber optic jumper accommodating tube to rise, causing the stripped fiber optic jumper to be aligned with the fiber optic jumper connector inside the connector slot 300, facilitating the insertion of the fiber optic jumper into the interior of the fiber optic jumper connector.
[0034] See also Figure 9 The reverse motion drive 800 includes a motor 801 fixedly mounted on the bottom of the receiving box 100. The output end of motor 801 is connected to a gear 802. Rack plate 1 803 and rack plate 2 804 engage with the front and rear sides of gear 802, respectively. The right end of rack plate 1 803 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the extended square slot 403, while the left end of rack plate 2 804 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the right guide frame 718 via a connecting rod 805. Motor 801 drives gear 802 to rotate, causing rack plate 1 803 and rack plate 2 804 to move toward or away from each other simultaneously. This causes the sleeve 401 and the fiber optic patch cable receiving tube to move toward or away from each other simultaneously.
[0035] See also Figure 10The stripping assembly 900 includes a mounting square tube 901 fixedly mounted on the bottom wall of the right end of the holding box 100, and an extrusion column 902 is slidably connected inside the mounting square tube 901. The extrusion column 902 is located directly below the linear groove 405. A wedge plate 1 903 is fixedly mounted on the lower left side of the extrusion column 902, and a wedge plate 2 904 is fixedly mounted on the middle right side of the extrusion column 902. The inclined surface of the wedge plate 1 903 faces downward, and the inclined surface of the wedge plate 2 904 faces upward.
[0036] A mounting hole 905 is provided through the middle of the extrusion column 902, and limiting columns 906 are slidably connected at both ends of the mounting hole 905. A spring 907 is fixedly installed between the two limiting columns 906. There are hemispherical grooves 908 on the front and rear side walls of the mounting square tube 901. The limiting column 906 fits on the inner wall of one of the hemispherical grooves 908, thereby limiting the extrusion column 902 and preventing the extrusion column 902 from moving downward under the action of gravity.
[0037] A frame bracket 909 is slidably connected to the outside of the mounting square tube 901, and the frame bracket 909 is located between the left pressure plate 406 and the right pressure plate 407. A left push rod 910 is fixedly installed on the lower left side wall of the mounting square tube 901, and a right push rod 911 is fixedly installed on the upper right side wall of the frame bracket 909. The left push rod 910 and the right push rod 911 are slidably connected to the mounting square tube 901. The left push rod 910 is attached to the top of the inclined surface of wedge plate 1 903, and the right push rod 911 is attached to the top of the inclined surface of wedge plate 2 904. During the movement of the sleeve 401 from right to left, the right pressure plate 407 squeezes the frame bracket 909, the left push rod 910 is pulled out from the mounting square tube 901, and the right push rod 911 is inserted into the mounting square tube 901 to squeeze the inclined surface of the wedge plate 2 904, so that the extrusion column 902 moves downward and is pulled out from the straight groove 405; during the movement of the sleeve 401 from left to right, the left pressure plate 406 squeezes the frame bracket 909, the right push rod 911 is pulled out from the mounting square tube 901, and the left push rod 910 squeezes the inclined surface of the wedge plate 1 903, so that the extrusion column 902 moves upward through the straight groove 405 and enters the interior of the sleeve 401.
[0038] When in use, first, the threaded rod 709 is screwed to drive the U-shaped slide 710 to move from right to left, and the horizontal column 711 presses the vertical plate 712 upward through the inner wall of the inclined groove 3 713, driving the upper arc cover 704 to move upward, increasing the distance between the lower arc cover 701 and the upper arc cover 704, placing the optical fiber jumper inside the lower arc cover 701, and making the optical fiber jumper extend a distance beyond the right end of the lower arc cover 701, and then screwing the threaded rod 709 in the opposite direction to move the upper arc cover 704 downward, so that the lower arc cover 701 and the upper arc cover 704 cover the surface of the optical fiber jumper, and the squeezing block 707 squeezes the surface of the optical fiber jumper; The output end of the cylinder 716 contracts, driving the slide 715 downward, thereby lowering the fiber jumper accommodating tube and aligning the axis of the fiber jumper accommodating tube with the axis of the sleeve 401; The motor 801 drives the gear 802 to rotate, driving the rack plate 1 803 and the rack plate 2 804 to move toward each other, thereby causing the fiber optic patch cord accommodating tube and the sleeve 401 to move toward each other, and the right end of the fiber optic patch cord is inserted into the sleeve 401. During this process, the sliding post 508 slides along the horizontal groove 2 605. The distance between the two clamping plates 501 is large, which will prevent the fiber optic patch cord inside the sleeve 401 from colliding. When the slide post 508 slides to the left half of the horizontal groove 1 603, the cutter 505 abuts against the limit plate 602, and then the slide post 508 continues to slide along the horizontal groove 2 605, the piston rod 502 slides inside the piston cylinder 503, and the spring 1 504 is squeezed and contracted; then the motor 801 drives the gear 802 to rotate in the opposite direction, the sleeve 401 and the optical fiber jumper accommodating tube move away from each other, the slide post 508 first moves along the inclined groove 1 604, and the distance between the two clamping plates 501 gradually decreases, so that the two clamping plates 501 are clamped on the surface of the optical fiber jumper, and the elasticity of the spring 1 504 is gradually released, but the cutter 505 still remains against the limit plate 602, and the two cutters 505 approach each other to shear the coating of the optical fiber jumper; Afterwards, the slide column 508 moves along the piston cylinder 503, and the clamping plate 501 moves rightward while clamping the fiber jumper coating. The fiber jumper housing tube drives the fiber jumper to move leftward, separating the coating from the glass core. Afterwards, the left pressure plate 406 squeezes the frame bracket 909, and the right push rod 911 is pulled out of the mounting square tube 901. The left push rod 910 squeezes the inclined surface of the wedge plate 903, causing the squeezing column 902 to move upward through the linear groove 405 and enter the interior of the sleeve 401, so that the squeezing column 902 squeezes the peeled coating. Then, the output end of the cylinder 716 is extended, driving the slide 715 to rise, causing the fiber optic patch cord receiving tube to rise, so that the stripped fiber optic patch cord is aligned with the fiber optic patch cord connector inside the connector slot 300. Then, the motor 801 drives the gear 802 to rotate, and the rack plate 1 803 and the rack plate 2 804 move toward each other, thereby causing the fiber optic patch cord receiving tube and the connector slot 300 to move toward each other, so that the stripped glass core is inserted into the fiber optic patch cord connector. During this process, the squeezing column 902 squeezes the surface of the fiber jumper coating to block the coating. The sliding column 508 first slides along the second inclined groove 606, and the two clamping plates 501 release the clamping effect on the peeled coating, thereby causing the sleeve 401 to move leftward relative to the peeled coating. Afterwards, the right pressure plate 407 squeezes the frame bracket 909, the left push rod 910 is pulled out from the mounting square tube 901, and the right push rod 911 is inserted into the mounting square tube 901 to squeeze the inclined surface of the wedge plate 2 904, so that the extrusion column 902 moves downward and is pulled out from the straight groove 405; the peeled coating layer stays inside the right end of the sleeve 401; when the sleeve 401 makes the next reciprocating movement, the coating layer inside the right end of the sleeve 401 is pushed out by the next peeled coating layer.
[0039] Finally, screw the threaded rod 709 to increase the distance between the lower arc cover 701 and the upper arc cover 704 , remove the fiber jumper connector from the connector slot 300 , and remove it from between the lower arc cover 701 and the upper arc cover 704 .
