[0023] In this embodiment, a connecting groove 24 is provided at one end of the fixed seat 1, and a connecting block 23 is movably installed inside the connecting groove 24. One end of the connecting block 23 is fixed on the limiting plate 10, and a reset mechanism 25 is fixed between the connecting block 23 and the connecting groove 24. The reset mechanism 25 is a reset spring. The reset spring provides a supporting force for the connecting block 23, so that one end of the limiting plate 10 always moves in the direction of the movable seat 9 to limit and fix the movable seat 9. A sealing block 18 is fixed at one end of the movable seat 9, and the sealing block 18 cooperates with the light-emitting hole 4. A sliding groove 15 is provided on the inner wall of the fixed groove 2. A rotating rod 16 is fixed on the side of the lighting mechanism 3, and the rotating rod 16 is movably installed inside the sliding groove 15. A convex block 17 is fixed on the side of the lighting mechanism 3, and the convex block 17 contacts the inner wall of the fixed groove 2. After the sealing block 18 enters the interior of the light-emitting hole 4, the light-emitting hole 4 is sealed to prevent dust from entering the interior of the light-emitting hole 4 and affecting the lighting brightness.

[0024] In this embodiment, a limiting groove 19 is formed on the inner wall of the fixed groove 2, and a limiting block 20 is movably installed inside the limiting groove 19. One end of the limiting block 20 is fixed on the movable seat 9. A tension mechanism 21 is installed between the limiting block 20 and the limiting groove 19. The tension mechanism 21 is a tension spring. The tension spring provides tension for the limiting block 20. Later, after the limiting plate 10 loses its limiting force on the movable seat 9, the tension mechanism 21 pulls the movable seat 9 to be exposed and opened from one end of the fixed groove 2. The first fixing component 6 and the second fixing component 7 both include an extrusion plate 12. The fixing seat 1 has an installation groove 11 formed inside. The extrusion plate 1 2 is movably installed inside the installation groove 11, one end of the extrusion plate 12 is fixed with a movable column 13, the movable column 13 is movably installed on the fixing seat 1, and the side of the movable column 13 is movably installed with a supporting mechanism 14, the two ends of the supporting mechanism 14 are respectively fixed on the extrusion plate 12 and the inner wall of the installation groove 11, the supporting mechanism 14 is a supporting spring, and the supporting spring provides thrust for the extrusion plate 12. After the extrusion plate 12 is separated from the lighting mechanism 3, the supporting mechanism 14 pushes the extrusion plate 12 to move inward at the same time, and the extrusion plate 12 completes the extrusion and fixing of one end of the optical fiber inward, and the one end of the optical fiber is installed inside the light-emitting hole 4 for use.

[0025] The device also provides the required power for the electrical appliances inside the device through a battery or an external power supply. When using the device, first slide the connecting block 23 on the limiting plate 10 inside the connecting groove 24. After sliding, the limiting plate 10 loses the limit on the movable seat 9. Under the pulling force of the pulling mechanism 21, the limiting block 20 moves inside the limiting groove 19, and the movement makes one end of the movable seat 9 exposed from the inside of the fixed groove 2. The limiting plate 10 enters the inside of the limiting opening 22 under the push of the reset mechanism 25, and limits and fixes the movable seat 9. After the movable seat 9 moves outward, it loses the limit on the lighting mechanism 3. The first fixing component 6 and the second fixing component 7 are separated from the annular groove 5 at the same time, and the lighting mechanism 3 is rotated 180 degrees inside the slide groove 15 by the rotating rod 16, and one end of the light-emitting hole 4 is moved to one end of the fixed groove 2. Then the lighting mechanism 3 is pushed inside the fixed groove 2, and the rotating rod 16 moves inside the slide groove 15. The first fixing assembly 6 moves inwards at the same time without the support of the lighting mechanism 3, and the extrusion plates 12 are in contact with each other, and one end of the optical fiber is passed through the first fixing assembly 6 to enter the interior of the light-emitting hole 4. The first fixing assembly 6 provides extrusion limitation for the optical fiber, and the light is emitted from the light-emitting hole 4. The light moves with the optical fiber, and the optical fiber can be checked for breakage when it moves with the optical fiber. When the optical fiber is broken, the optical fiber cannot guide light, and darkness appears at the broken position, which is convenient for the maintenance and use of the optical fiber. When not in use, the lighting mechanism 3 is turned over and returned to its original position. After returning to its original position, the light-emitting hole 4 contacts the sealing block 18, and the sealing block 18 seals and protects the light-emitting hole 4.
