[0003] When laying optical fibers, adhesive tape is usually applied to the optical fibers to temporarily fix them for easy fixation. Therefore, specific laying equipment is required to lay the optical fibers.

[0004] In order to conveniently and easily stick the tape to the optical fiber, common optical fiber laying equipment usually limits the position of the optical fiber so that the optical fiber always moves in one direction. This setting will form an angle between the optical fiber on the reel and the optical fiber on the laying device, which will increase the friction of the optical fiber. Workers must increase the force of pulling the optical fiber, and the force and friction on the optical fiber will be greatly increased, which can easily damage the optical fiber sheath and the optical fiber itself.

In addition, specific terms may be selected by the applicant, and in such cases, their detailed meanings will be described in the detailed description of the present invention. Therefore, the terms used in the specification should not be understood as simple names, but rather as the meanings of the terms and the overall description of the present invention.

[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 10 This embodiment provides an optical fiber laying device, including

[0033] A moving component 100 for placing an optical fiber; and a motion component 200 arranged on the outer wall of the moving component 100, including a support member 201, a fixing member 202 connected to the outer wall of the supporting member 201, and a rotating member 203 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the fixing member 202; wherein, when the optical fiber moves, it will drive the rotating member 203 to move, and the rotating member 203 will adhere the tape to the top of the optical fiber.

[0034] It should be noted that if Figure 1 As shown, the motion component 200 is disposed at the bottom of the moving component 100 , and its height is lower than that of the wire wheel 103 .

[0035] The movable assembly 100 includes a movable steel frame 101, a bracket 102 arranged on the outer wall of the steel frame 101, a reel 103 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bracket 102, and a handle 104 arranged on the top of the steel frame 101, wherein the steel frame 101 is made of welded stainless steel parts as a whole, and two brackets 102 are provided thereon, and the two brackets 102 are respectively fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the steel frame 101 by bolts, and the two brackets 102 respectively place the main reel 103 and the spare reel 103. When the optical fiber on the main reel 103 is laid, the spare reel 103 can be replaced with the main reel 103 to continue the optical fiber laying work.

[0036] At the same time, a wheel set is provided at the bottom of the steel frame 101, which can push the steel frame 101 to drive the wire wheel 103 to move, so that two wire wheels 103 can be transported and moved at the same time.

[0037] The pulley 103 is used to wind the optical fiber. The optical fiber is wound on the pulley 103 in multiple layers in a spiral shape. The pulley 103 is provided with a groove for guiding the direction. The pulley 103 is provided with a rotating shaft, which can be placed in the bracket 102. The bracket 102 can support the pulley 103 and the rotating shaft, and the pulley 103 and the rotating shaft can rotate in the bracket 102.

[0038] In summary, when laying optical fiber, the two reels 103 can be placed on the two brackets 102 respectively. The optical fiber in the reel 103 on the left bracket 102 needs to be laid first, and then the reel 103 on the right bracket 102 can be moved to the left bracket 102 to continue laying optical fiber.

[0039] As an optional embodiment, it is specifically described how to adhere the optical fiber to the adhesive tape without damaging the adhesive tape.

[0040] The support member 201 includes a connecting rod 201-1, a first connecting plate 201-2 connected to one end of the connecting rod 201-1, a guide rod 201-3 arranged on one side of the first connecting plate 201-2, a first slide groove 201-4 arranged on the outer wall of the guide rod 201-3, a second slide groove 201-5 arranged on the outer wall of the guide rod 201-3 and connected to the first slide groove 201-4, and a third slide groove 201-6 arranged on the outer wall of the guide rod 201-3 and connected to the second slide groove 201-5. The connecting rod 201-1, the first connecting plate 201-2 and the guide rod 201-3 are integrated, wherein the guide rod 201-3 is located above the connecting rod 201-1.

[0041] It should be noted that the first slide groove 201-4 is set at the bottom of the guide rod 201-3, and the third slide groove 201-6 is set on the other side of the guide rod 201-3. There is a certain angle between the two, but the two are not perpendicular. The second slide groove 201-5 is used to connect the two. The second slide groove 201-5 is set on both sides of the third slide groove 201-6, and the other side of the two second slide grooves 201-5 is connected to the first slide groove 201-4.

[0042] The first chute 201-4, the second chute 201-5 and the third chute 201-6 are continuous, uninterrupted and symmetrical curves, wherein the height of the third chute 201-6 is lower than that of the first chute 201-4. When an object moves along the curve, it will maintain its original height at the first chute 201-4, gradually decrease in height at the second chute 201-5, and drop to the lowest point at the third chute 201-6, and then move to the other side of the third chute 201-6 and gradually rise.

[0043] The outer wall of the connecting rod 201-1 is connected to a fixing seat 205, and the bottom of the fixing seat 205 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the steel frame 101, wherein the two sides of the connecting rod 201-1 are respectively connected to a fixing seat 205 by bolts, and an extension frame is provided on the steel frame 101 for connecting the fixing seat 205, and the extension frame here is fixedly connected to the fixing seat 205 by bolts.

[0044] The fixing part 202 includes a movable seat 202-1, a sleeve 202-2 arranged on the top of the movable seat 202-1, a mounting piece 202-3 arranged on one side of the sleeve 202-2 and a slider 202-4 arranged at the bottom of the movable seat 202-1. The inner wall of the sleeve 202-2 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the connecting rod 201-1. When laying the optical fiber, the optical fiber needs to be passed through the sleeve 202-2. When the optical fiber is pulled, the movement of the optical fiber will drive the sleeve 202-2, the mounting piece 202-3 and the slider 202-4 to move on the connecting rod 201-1. In this way, when the optical fiber is pulled, there will not be too large an angle between the optical fiber at the reel 103 and the optical fiber at the sleeve 202-2, so that the optical fiber can be guided to move more flexibly.

[0045] The rotating member 203 includes a rotating frame 203-1, a first crossbar 203-2 provided on one side of the rotating frame 203-1, a groove 203-3 provided on one side of the first crossbar 203-2, a second connecting piece 203-4 provided on the top of the rotating frame 203-1, a connecting column 203-5 provided on the side of the rotating frame 203-1 away from the first crossbar 203-2, a protrusion 203-6 provided on the inner wall of the connecting column 203-5, and a second crossbar 203-8 provided on one side of the rotating frame 203-1. The second connecting piece 203-4 is provided with a through hole, such as Figure 4 As shown, the through hole there is used to connect the tape roll.

[0046] When connecting the tape roll, the adhesive surface of the tape needs to be placed downward, and one end of the tape needs to be pulled between the first crossbar 203-2 and the second crossbar 203-8, and the tape needs to be adhered to the second crossbar 203-8. Figure 6 As shown, the height of the first crossbar 203 - 2 is higher than the second crossbar 203 - 8 and the width of the first crossbar 203 - 2 is greater than the second crossbar 203 - 8 .

[0047] When laying the optical fiber, the optical fiber will move to the groove 203-3. At this time, pressing the rotating frame 203-1 will make the groove 203-3 move downward to contact the optical fiber, so that the tape can be adhered to the optical fiber. When the optical fiber moves, the first cross bar 203-2 will press the tape to continuously contact the optical fiber, and the optical fiber will also drive the tape to move, so that the tape can be adhered to the optical fiber.

[0048] It should be noted that the groove 203 - 3 is provided at the first crossbar 203 - 2 so that the first crossbar 203 - 2 can press the tape at a better angle when it contacts the optical fiber.

[0049] The outer wall of the connecting column 203-5 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the mounting plate 202-3, and the inner wall of the connecting column 203-5 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the guide rod 201-3. A sliding groove 203-7 is opened on one side of the rotating frame 203-1, and the mounting plate 202-3 is arranged in the middle position of the sliding groove 203-7. Among them, the connecting column 203-5 passes through the mounting plate 202-3 and is slidably connected to the guide rod 201-3.

[0050] In order to prevent the rotating frame 203 - 1 from moving randomly, the corners of the sliding groove 203 - 7 will abut against the mounting piece 202 - 3 after the rotating frame 203 - 1 moves to a certain angle, thereby providing support for the rotating frame 203 - 1 .

[0051] The outer wall of the protrusion 203-6 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the first slide groove 201-4, and the outer wall of the connecting column 203-5 is sleeved with a torsion spring 206. One side of the torsion spring 206 contacts the outer wall of the rotating frame 203-1, and the other side of the torsion spring 206 contacts the outer wall of the mounting plate 202-3. When the optical fiber is pulled, because the optical fiber is spirally wound layer by layer, the position of the optical fiber will change. At this time, the sleeve 202-2 will be driven to move, and the sleeve 202-2 will drive the rotating frame 203-1 and the connecting column 203-5 to move. At this time, the protrusion 203-6 will gradually slide into the first slide groove 201-4, the second slide groove 201-5 and the third slide groove 201-6. In this way, under the guidance of each slide groove, the rotating frame 203-1 will be driven to change its angle downward, so that the above-mentioned effect can be achieved, so that the first cross bar 203-2 presses the tape downward to contact the optical fiber.

[0052] The outer wall of the fixing member 202 is provided with a cutting member 204, and the cutting member 204 includes a fixing frame 204-1 provided on the outer wall of the mounting plate 202-3 and a cutter 204-2 provided on one side of the fixing frame 204-1. As mentioned above, when the protrusion 203-6 slides along the third slide groove 201-6 again into the second slide groove 201-5 and the first slide groove 201-4, it will drive the rotating frame 203-1 to return to its original angle. At this time, the second cross bar 203-8 will drive the tape to move upward. At this time, the tape and the light There is a certain angle between the fibers, so when the tape touches the cutter 204-2 upward, it will be squeezed by the cutter 204-2. Here, the cutter 204-2 is set at a certain distance from the rotating frame 203-1. When the tape is squeezed by the cutter 204-2, it will contact the outer wall of the rotating frame 203-1. At this time, under the action of the sharpness of the cutter 204-2 itself, the tape will be cut. At the same time, the optical fiber will drive the previously adhered tape to move, so that the section of tape will be detached, so that it can be adhered in sections.

[0053] As an optional embodiment, different effects can be achieved by replacing the first crossbar 203 - 2 and the second crossbar 203 - 8 .

[0054] The rotating member 203 includes a rotating frame 203-1, a first cross bar 203-2 arranged on one side of the rotating frame 203-1, a groove 203-3 arranged on one side of the first cross bar 203-2, a second connecting piece 203-4 arranged on the top of the rotating frame 203-1, a connecting column 203-5 arranged on the side of the rotating frame 203-1 away from the first cross bar 203-2, a protrusion 203-6 arranged on the inner wall of the connecting column 203-5, and a second cross bar 203-8 arranged on one side of the rotating frame 203-1, wherein the first cross bar 203-2 and the second cross bar 203-8 can be replaced by two rotatable shafts, which are symmetrical to each other and distributed at an oblique angle to ensure that when the rotating member 203 is tilted, the shaft located above the tape will contact the optical fiber.

[0055] The different effect is that when the optical fiber moves, the rotating shaft of the pressing tape can rotate with the optical fiber, so that the tape can be pressed better and fit more closely.

[0056] Finally, it should be pointed out that the methods and devices described in detail above are merely embodiments, and those skilled in the art can modify these embodiments in different ways without departing from the scope of the present invention.
