AI Technical Summary
Existing fiber optic cable take-up and lay-down devices are prone to fiber optic cable accumulation at the edge of the reel during the take-up process, resulting in localized over-density and a risk of entanglement. Furthermore, the fiber optic cable may slip or become misaligned due to speed changes or external interference during take-up and lay-down.
The system employs a fiber optic disc to drive a transmission wheel and a worm gear system, combined with a reciprocating cable laying mechanism and an air cavity adjusting friction plate. Through automatic cable laying and dynamic friction adjustment, it prevents fiber optic slippage or misalignment, and extends the device's lifespan through lubrication.
This effectively prevents optical fibers from clustering at both ends of the fiber optic tray, ensuring stable fiber positions, preventing slippage or misalignment, improving cabling efficiency, and extending the device's lifespan.

Its core function is to achieve efficient and precise fiber optic cable laying and winding through automated control. It adopts electric drive and intelligent tension adjustment technology, and can be adapted to different specifications of fiber optic reels to ensure a smooth and orderly cable laying process, avoiding the risk of damage such as twisting and pulling.

Through standardized operating procedures and safety protection design, it effectively ensures construction accuracy and fiber optic transmission performance, helping communication network construction to upgrade towards intelligence and efficiency.
[0003] In practical use, existing devices tend to accumulate fiber optic cables at the edge of the reel during the fiber optic cable take-up process, resulting in localized over-density and a risk of entanglement. Furthermore, during fiber optic cable take-up and lay-up, speed variations or external interference can cause the fiber optic cable to slip or become misaligned. Therefore, a fiber optic cable take-up and lay-up device for communication network laying construction is proposed. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the prior art, such as the easy accumulation of optical fiber at the edge of the reel during the optical fiber collection process, which leads to local over-density and the risk of entanglement. Moreover, during the collection and delivery of optical fiber, speed changes or external interference may cause the optical fiber to slip or misalign. Therefore, this invention proposes an optical fiber collection and delivery device for communication network laying construction.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A fiber optic cable laying and winding device for communication network construction includes a base. A fiber optic reel is rotatably connected to the upper part of the base. A first transmission wheel is fixedly connected to one side of the fiber optic reel. The first transmission wheel is driven by a transmission belt, and the transmission belt is driven by a second transmission wheel. The second transmission wheel is rotatably connected to a control housing, which is fixedly connected to the upper part of the base. A first worm gear is fixedly connected to the second transmission wheel. A reciprocating cable laying mechanism is provided at the lower part of the first worm gear. A wire housing is fixedly connected to the lower part of the reciprocating cable laying mechanism. An eccentric shaft is fixedly connected to one end of the first worm gear. A connecting plate is rotatably connected to the eccentric shaft. A pressure plate is rotatably connected to the connecting plate. The pressure plate is slidably connected to a first air chamber. The first air chamber is fixedly connected to one side of the control housing. A flexible tube is fixedly connected to the lower part of the first air chamber. A second air chamber is fixedly connected to the flexible tube. A friction plate is slidably connected inside the second air chamber.
[0007] During the fiber optic cable laying and take-up process, the fiber optic reel rotates, which drives the first transmission wheel to rotate. The first transmission wheel then drives the first worm gear to rotate, which in turn drives the reciprocating cable laying mechanism, thereby causing the conductor housing to move back and forth to assist in fiber optic cable laying. Simultaneously, the rotation of the first worm gear drives the pressure plate to move back and forth inside the first air chamber, thereby continuously supplying gas into the second air chamber. The increased air pressure inside the second air chamber causes the friction plate to move, adjusting the friction between the friction plate and the fiber optic cable to prevent slippage and misalignment caused by changes in fiber optic speed. The first and second air chambers are provided with air inlet slots and air outlets at their upper parts. A friction plate is fixedly connected to one side of the conductor housing, while a friction plate on the opposite side is slidably connected to the conductor housing.
[0008] The above technical solution further includes:
[0009] The reciprocating cable laying mechanism includes a first worm gear meshing with a first worm, a first gear fixedly connected to the first worm gear, a third gear fixedly connected to the upper part of the first gear, the third gear being a sector gear, the first gear and the second gear meshing with each other, and when rotating, the first gear and the second gear reverse their directions, so the third gear fixedly connected to the upper part of the first gear and the second gear reverses their directions, thereby alternately meshing with the lower first rack, thereby driving the first rack to reciprocate.
[0010] The first gear is meshed with the second gear, and the second gear is fixedly connected to the third gear.
[0011] The third gear is meshed with a first rack, which is slidably connected to the control housing. A wire housing is fixedly connected to the lower part of the first rack, and a groove is provided at the lower part of the control housing for the first rack to slide through.
[0012] The device base is equipped with a first motor, and the output end of the first motor is equipped with an optical fiber disk.
[0013] An oil storage tank is fixedly connected to the upper part of the wire housing, and a liquid filling shell is fixedly connected to the upper part of the oil storage tank. The oil storage tank is filled with lubricating fluid.
[0014] The liquid filling housing is equipped with a second motor, and the output end of the second motor is equipped with a second worm gear. The second worm gear is meshed with a second worm wheel, and the second worm wheel is rotatably connected to the liquid filling housing.
[0015] The second worm gear is fixedly connected to the fourth gear, the fourth gear is meshed with the second rack, the second rack is slidably connected to the oil storage tank, and a miniature liquid filling head is provided at the bottom of the oil storage tank.
[0016] The liquid filling housing is fixedly connected to a limiting groove, and a second rack is slidably connected inside the limiting groove.
[0017] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. In this invention, during the fiber optic cable take-up and lay-out process, the rotation of the fiber optic reel drives the first worm gear to rotate. The rotation of the first worm gear drives the reciprocating cable laying mechanism at the bottom, which in turn drives the conductor housing at the bottom to move back and forth automatically. When the conductor housing moves back and forth, it can assist the fiber optic cable laying during the take-up process, effectively preventing the fiber optic cable from gathering at both ends of the fiber optic reel, thus affecting the laying effect. Moreover, while the first worm gear rotates, it can also drive the pressure plate to move back and forth inside the first air cavity, thereby continuously supplying airflow into the second air cavity. As the air pressure inside the second air cavity increases, it can drive the friction plate to move, thereby adjusting the friction force between the friction plate and the fiber optic cable. Furthermore, as the rotation speed of the fiber optic reel increases, the air pressure inside the second air cavity also increases synchronously, thereby realizing dynamic friction force adjustment, effectively ensuring the stability of the fiber optic cable position on the fiber optic reel, and preventing the fiber optic cable from sliding or misaligning due to speed changes or external interference.
[0019] 2. In this invention, the optical fiber can be guided by the conductor housing during the optical fiber take-up and delivery process, thereby adjusting the stability of the cable laying. By activating the second motor installed inside the liquid filling housing, the second rack can be driven to press down inside the oil storage tank, thereby periodically adding lubricant to the optical fiber and effectively extending the service life of the device.

[0027] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0028] Example 1
[0029] like Figures 1-6As shown, a fiber optic cable laying and winding device for communication network construction includes a base 1. A fiber optic disc 3 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the base 1. A first transmission wheel 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the fiber optic disc 3. The first transmission wheel 4 is driven by a transmission belt 5, which in turn is driven by a second transmission wheel 6. The second transmission wheel 6 is rotatably connected to a control housing 7, which is fixedly connected to the upper part of the base 1. A first worm gear 8 is fixedly connected to the second transmission wheel 6. A reciprocating cable laying mechanism is provided at the lower part of the first worm gear 8. A wire housing 13 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the reciprocating cable laying mechanism. An eccentric shaft 16 is fixedly connected to one end of the first worm gear 8. A connecting plate 17 is rotatably connected to the eccentric shaft 16. A pressure plate 23 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 17. The pressure plate 23 is slidably connected to a first air chamber 18, which is fixedly connected to one side of the control housing 7. A flexible hose 14 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the first air chamber 18. A second air chamber 19 is fixedly connected to the flexible hose 14. A friction plate 20 is slidably connected inside the second air chamber 19.
[0030] During the fiber optic cable laying and take-up process, the fiber optic reel 3 rotates, which drives the first transmission wheel 4 to rotate. The first transmission wheel 4 then drives the first worm gear 8 to rotate, which in turn drives the reciprocating cable laying mechanism, thereby causing the conductor housing 13 to move back and forth, thus assisting in fiber optic cable laying. Simultaneously, the rotation of the first worm gear 8 drives the pressure plate 23 to move back and forth inside the first air chamber 18, thereby continuously supplying gas into the second air chamber 19. The air pressure inside the second air chamber 19 increases, thereby driving the friction plate 20 to move, adjusting the friction force between the friction plate 20 and the optical fiber, and preventing slippage and misalignment caused by changes in the optical fiber speed. The first air chamber 18 and the second air chamber 19 are provided with air inlet grooves and air outlets at the top. The friction plate 20 is fixedly connected to one side of the conductor housing 13, while the friction plate 20 on the opposite side is slidably connected to the conductor housing 13.
[0031] The reciprocating cable laying mechanism includes a first worm gear 15 meshing with a first worm 8, a first gear 9 fixedly connected to the first worm gear 15, a third gear 11 fixedly connected to the upper part of the first gear 9, the third gear 11 being a sector gear, the first gear 9 meshing with a second gear 10, the first gear 9 and the second gear 10 rotating in opposite directions, thus the third gear 11 fixedly connected to the upper part of the first gear 9 and the second gear 10 rotating in opposite directions, thereby alternately meshing with the first rack 12 set at the lower part, thereby driving the first rack 12 to reciprocate. The first gear 9 meshing with a second gear 10, the second gear 10 fixedly connected to a third gear 11, the third gear 11 meshing with a first rack 12, the first rack 12 slidingly connected to the control housing 7, the lower part of the first rack 12 fixedly connected to a wire housing 13, the lower part of the control housing 7 being provided with a sliding groove for the first rack 12 to slide through the sliding groove, the upper part of the device base 1 being provided with a first motor 2, and the output end of the first motor 2 being provided with an optical fiber disk 3.
[0032] In this embodiment, during the fiber optic cable take-up and take-up process, starting the first motor 2 can drive the fiber optic reel 3 to rotate. The rotation of the fiber optic reel 3 can drive the fixedly connected first transmission wheel 4 to rotate. The rotation of the first transmission wheel 4 can drive the second transmission wheel 6, which is connected via a transmission belt 5, to rotate. The rotation of the second transmission wheel 6 can drive the fixedly connected first worm gear 8 to rotate. The rotation of the first worm gear 8 can drive the meshing first worm wheel 15 to rotate. The rotation of the first worm wheel 15 can drive the fixedly connected first gear 9 to rotate. The rotation of the first gear 9 can drive the meshing second gear 10 to rotate. The third gear 11 is a sector gear. When rotating, the first gear 9 and the second gear 10 rotate in opposite directions. Therefore, the third gear 11, which is fixedly connected to the upper part of the first gear 9 and the second gear 10, rotates in opposite directions, thereby alternately meshing with the first rack 12 set at the lower part. This drives the first rack 12 to move back and forth. The movement of the first rack 12 can drive the fixedly connected wire housing 13 to move back and forth. The automatic movement of the wire housing 13 can assist the fiber optic cable arrangement during the take-up process, effectively preventing the fiber optic cable from gathering at both ends of the fiber optic reel 3, thus affecting the cable arrangement effect.
[0033] While the first worm gear 8 rotates, it can also synchronously drive the eccentric shaft 16 to rotate. The rotation of the eccentric shaft 16 drives the rotating connecting plate 17 to rotate. The rotation of the connecting plate 17 can drive the rotating pressure plate 23 to reciprocate inside the first air chamber 18, thereby continuously delivering airflow into the second air chamber 19 through the hose 14. As the air pressure inside the second air chamber 19 increases, it can drive the friction plate 20 to move, thereby adjusting the friction force between the friction plate 20 and the optical fiber. Moreover, as the rotation speed of the optical fiber disk 3 increases, the air pressure inside the second air chamber 19 increases synchronously, thereby realizing dynamic friction force adjustment. This effectively ensures the stability of the optical fiber's position on the optical fiber disk 3 and prevents the optical fiber from sliding or misaligning due to speed changes or external interference.
[0034] Example 2
[0035] like Figures 1-6 As shown, an oil storage tank 21 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the wire housing 13, and a liquid filling housing 22 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the oil storage tank 21. The oil storage tank 21 is filled with lubricating fluid. A second motor 25 is installed inside the liquid filling housing 22. A second worm gear 26 is installed at the output end of the second motor 25. A second worm wheel 27 is meshed with the second worm gear 26. The second worm wheel 27 is rotatably connected to the liquid filling housing 22. A fourth gear 28 is fixedly connected to the second worm wheel 27. A second rack 24 is meshed with the fourth gear 28. The second rack 24 is slidably connected to the oil storage tank 21. A miniature liquid filling head is installed at the bottom of the oil storage tank 21. A limit groove 29 is fixedly connected inside the liquid filling housing 22. The second rack 24 is slidably connected inside the limit groove 29.
[0036] In this embodiment, the fiber optic cable is guided by the conductor housing 13 during the fiber optic cable laying and winding process, thereby adjusting the cable laying stability. The second motor 25 inside the liquid filling housing 22 drives the second worm gear 26 to rotate. The rotation of the second worm gear 26 drives the meshing second worm wheel 27 to rotate, which in turn drives the fixedly connected fourth gear 28 to rotate. The rotation of the fourth gear 28 causes the meshing second rack 24 to press down inside the oil storage tank 21. Furthermore, the slidingly connected limiting groove 29 ensures the stability of the second rack 24 during its movement. Controlling the downward pressure of the second rack 24 allows for the periodic addition of lubricant to the fiber optic cable, effectively extending the device's service life.
