DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The technical solution of the utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0019] Example

[0020] like Figure 1-3As shown, an optical fiber coating device proposed by the utility model includes a workbench 1 and a controller 8, a base 2 is fixedly mounted on the top wall of the workbench 1, two roller frames 3 are symmetrically mounted on the top wall of the workbench 1 and are located on both sides of the base 2, so as to support the optical fiber and facilitate the subsequent movement of the optical fiber; a protective cover 5 is arranged at the top opening of the base 2, and two hinges 9 are symmetrically mounted on the base 2 and the back wall of the protective cover 5. Through the setting of the hinges 9, the auxiliary protective cover 5 is flipped on the base 2. When the base 2 and the protective cover 5 are in a closed state, an environment can be provided for the optical fiber coating process to avoid the optical fiber being exposed to the outside for coating process and polluting the surrounding environment; two ultraviolet curing lamps 7 and two nozzles 6 are symmetrically mounted on the base 2 and the inner wall of the protective cover 5. The ultraviolet curing lamps 7 and the nozzles 6 are both arranged in a semi-annular state, so that when the base 2 and the protective cover 5 are spliced, a ring is formed, which is conducive to evenly coating the surface of the optical fiber through the nozzles 6. When the external curing lamp 7 is on, the coating material can be quickly cured; the back openings of the two nozzles 6 are connected to the injection pipe, which is convenient for injecting materials into the nozzles 6 for the nozzles 6 to coat the optical fiber; the first positioning plug-in 10 is fixedly installed on the wall facing the protective cover 5, and the first positioning plug-in 10 is an inverted L-shape. Two springs 11 are symmetrically arranged on the wall facing the base 2, and the springs 11 are arranged in the wall opposite to the workbench 1 of the second positioning plug-in 12. One end of the two springs 11 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second positioning plug-in 12. The second positioning plug-in 12 is convex when viewed from a top view. A bayonet is provided on the vertical part of the first positioning plug-in 10. The protruding part of the second positioning plug-in 12 is arranged in the bayonet, so that the position of the first positioning plug-in 10 can be limited, thereby locking the position of the protective cover 5 in the closed state to prevent the protective cover 5 from being in an openable state during the processing of the optical fiber, thereby affecting the coating processing of the optical fiber.

[0021] Furthermore, traction components 4 are symmetrically mounted on both side walls of the workbench 1 for driving the movement of the optical fiber. The traction components 4 include a support seat 41, which is L-shaped and welded to the side walls of the workbench 1. The forward and reverse motors 42 are fixedly mounted on the horizontal part of the support seat 41, and the forward and reverse motors 42 are supported by the support seat 41; a rotating hole is opened on the vertical part of the support seat 41, and one end of the threaded rod 43 passes through the rotating hole and is connected to the output end of the forward and reverse motor 42, so that the threaded rod 43 is driven to rotate by the forward and reverse motor 42; a blocking plate 45 is fixedly sleeved on the outer ring surface of the threaded rod 43, and a nut 46 is sleeved on the threaded rod 43 and is connected to the output end of the forward and reverse motor 42; a blocking plate 45 is fixedly sleeved on the outer ring surface of the threaded rod 43, and a nut 46 is sleeved on the threaded rod 43 and is connected to the output end of the forward and reverse motor 42.

Under the drive of the take-up wheel 44, the coating process of the optical fiber can be carried out continuously, thereby improving the processing efficiency and eliminating the need for manual operation and adjustment by the staff, saving the occupation of human resources and achieving the purpose of reducing costs. The controller 8 is electrically connected to the forward and reverse motor 42 and the ultraviolet curing lamp 7.
