Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of optical fiber processing equipment, in particular to an optical fiber tensioning mechanism of a full-automatic optical fiber winding machine. Background Art
[0002] As an emerging sensing technology, fiber optic sensors are widely used in military, national defense, aerospace, industrial and mining enterprises, energy and environmental protection, industrial control, medical and health, computing and measurement, household appliances and civil engineering. The main difference between fiber optic sensors and traditional sensors is that traditional sensors are based on strain-electricity, use electrical signals as the carrier for conversion and transmission, and use wires to transmit electrical signals. Therefore, they are restricted by the environment when used, such as short circuits caused by excessive humidity, especially in high temperature and flammable and explosive environments, which can easily cause accidents. Fiber optic sensors use optical signals as the carrier for conversion and transmission, and use optical fibers to transmit signals. They are not subject to electromagnetic interference, have extremely high insulation, good explosion-proof performance, are corrosion-resistant, can be wound, are easy to reuse, are easy to form a network, and have simple optical fiber materials, are easy to obtain, and are low in cost.
[0003] In actual production applications, winding the light is a very important step, but currently there is a problem with using machines to perform secondary winding of the light, that is, the optical fiber produced by the optical fiber manufacturer is wound in a larger optical fiber disk, and the secondary winding of the light is to pull the optical fiber from the optical fiber disk into the optical fiber winding equipment. In order to ensure that the optical fiber can be smoothly pulled out from the optical fiber disk without damaging the optical fiber, the optical fiber needs to be kept in a certain loose state, but the loose light enters the optical fiber winding equipment and is prone to bounce under the action of external force. Once it is hung on a fixed structure during the bouncing process, the optical fiber will be broken. In order to realize machine winding of the optical fiber, it is necessary to ensure that the optical fiber is kept taut after entering the equipment without damaging the optical fiber.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new optical fiber tensioning mechanism for a fully automatic optical fiber winding machine to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

A tension sensor 13 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the other side of the mounting frame 1. The tension sensor 13 is connected to the tension wheel 3, and after sensing the force of the tension wheel 3, an electrical signal is transmitted to adjust the tension. A mounting arm 6 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of one side of the mounting frame 1, and the fiber release wheel 7 is rotatably installed on the mounting arm 6. Figure 1 As shown, a connecting shaft is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of one side of the mounting arm 6, and the fiber-releasing wheel 7 is rotatably sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting shaft.
[0020] A rotating shaft 8 is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 1 , and the rotating shaft 8 runs through the entire mounting frame 1 . A swing arm 9 is fixedly mounted on one end of the rotating shaft 8 , and a hinge block 11 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the swing arm 9 .
[0021] A positioning rod 10 is fixedly mounted on one side of the mounting frame 1. Figure 2As shown in the figure, the positioning rod 10 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of one side of the mounting frame 1 at a certain inclination angle through a knob. A support plate is fixedly installed at the top end of the positioning rod 10. A spring 12 is installed between the positioning rod 10 and the hinge block 11. One end of the spring 12 is fixedly connected to the hinge block 11, and the other end of the spring 12 is fixedly connected to the support plate.
[0022] A rotating block 14 is fixedly installed at one end of the rotating shaft 8. A fixing frame 15 is fixedly installed on the rotating block 14. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the fixing frame 15 is in the shape of the Chinese character "匚". The open side of the fixing frame 15 is fixedly connected to the rotating block 14. An extension block 16 is slidably installed on the fixing frame 15. The swing wheel 4 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of one side of the extension block 16. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, during the actual practical process, the swing wheel 4 is carried above the optical fiber.
[0023] An adjusting cylinder 17 is rotatably installed on the fixing frame 15. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, a bearing cylinder is fixedly installed through the outer wall of one side of the fixing frame 15. The adjusting cylinder 17 is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the bearing cylinder by means of a bearing. A threaded rod 18 is installed in the adjusting cylinder 17 by internal threads. One end of the threaded rod 18 extends outside the adjusting cylinder 17 and is fixedly connected to the extension block 16. A hand-operated knob 19 is also synchronously sleeved on the outer wall of the adjusting cylinder 17 to facilitate the staff to control the adjusting cylinder 17.
[0024] The included angle between the fixing frame 15 and the swing arm 9 is 90 degrees.
[0025] Two limiting rods are fixedly installed on the outer wall of one side of the extension block 16. Concave sliding rails are provided at the top and bottom of the fixing frame 15. The two limiting rods are respectively slidably connected to the inner walls of the two sliding rails. By limiting the extension block 16 with the two limiting rods, the extension block 16 and the threaded rod 18 will not rotate along with the adjusting cylinder 17 and can only slide in the limiting direction under the side effect of the thread.
[0026] The working principle of the optical fiber tensioning mechanism of the full-automatic optical fiber winding machine provided by the present utility model is as follows:
[0027] During the production process of the optical fiber ring by the winding machine, first, the staff can wind the optical fiber on the fiber inlet wheel 2, the tension wheel 3, the swing wheel 4, the transition wheel 5 and the fiber outlet wheel 7 in the Figure 1 shown manner. During the winding process, the tension sensor 13 measures the tension of the optical fiber during the winding process. When the tension is too large or too small, the motor where the fiber outlet end is located will adaptively adjust the rotation speed, so as to control the tension of the optical fiber.
[0028] The spring 12 is always in a compressed energy storage state, so that it always applies a restoring elastic force upward, so that the swing wheel 4 always acts downward on the optical fiber after being touched by the rotating block 14 and the swing arm 9, so that after the motor speed is adjusted, the optical fiber can be quickly adjusted to a suitable tensioning degree. The staff can further rotate the hand dial button 19, and the rotation of the hand dial button 19 will drive the adjustment cylinder 17 to rotate. At this time, the extension block 16 cannot rotate with the adjustment cylinder 17 due to the limiting effect of the two limiting rods, but maintains lateral sliding under the side effect of the thread, thereby adjusting the position of the tension wheel 3, thereby increasing or decreasing the pressure of the tension wheel 3 on the optical fiber.
[0029] Compared with the related art, the optical fiber tensioning mechanism of the fully automatic optical fiber winding machine provided by the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0030] The utility model provides an optical fiber tensioning mechanism of a fully automatic optical fiber winding machine. In the production of optical fiber rings by a winding machine, the device monitors the tension in the optical fiber winding process through a tension sensor 13. When the tension is too large or too small, the motor speed of the fiber release end is adjusted by means of a signal, thereby quickly increasing the tension.
