Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of optical fiber array substrates, in particular to an optical fiber array substrate grooving device. Background Art
[0002] When a conventional optical fiber array substrate is grooved, a pressing device is required to press the optical fiber array substrate to fix it, and then a cutter is used to groove the substrate.
[0003] The Chinese patent with the existing application number CN202320089929.0 discloses a non-pressing slotting device for optical fiber array substrates, the device includes a base, a mounting groove is provided on the base, a conveyor belt is connected in the mounting groove, a pressing device is connected on the base, a driving member is connected on the upper side of the elastic pressing device, a fixed plate is connected on the driving rod of the driving member, and a groove cutting tool is connected on the lower side of the fixed plate, and the groove cutting tool is arranged in cooperation with the pressing device. The working principle of the device is to place the array substrate on the conveyor belt, and then convey it to one side of the box body through the conveyor belt, and then start the driving member to drive two push plates to push the array substrate, push the first step of the array substrate into the box body, so that the second step of the array substrate can press against the conical tube, and then the driving member continues to drive the groove cutting tool to continue to move, so that the groove cutting tool grooves the array substrate, after the groove is completed, start the driving member to drive the fixed plate back to the original position, the array substrate pops out of the conical tube under the rebound action of the first spring, so that the array substrate returns to the conveyor belt, and then the grooved array substrate is conveyed away by the conveyor belt. Although the device can save the pressing process before grooving, the array substrate needs the cooperation of the conveyor belt and the driving member to push the array substrate into the box body for grooving. Once the conveyor belt fails to transport the array substrate into place, the loading process cannot be completed. Utility Model Content

[0014] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0016] like Figure 1As shown, the utility model provides a fiber array substrate grooving device, comprising a rectangular box 1, a storage barrel 2 is connected to the upper side of the rectangular box 1, a lower side outlet of the storage barrel 2 is connected to the rectangular box 1, a group of array substrates are placed in the storage barrel 2, and the inner side size of the storage barrel 2 is the same as the size of the array substrate, so that the group of array substrates in the storage barrel 2 fall downward into the rectangular box 1 in sequence under the action of gravity.
[0017] The driving member 3 is connected in the rectangular box body 1. The driving member 3 can be an oil cylinder, an air cylinder or an electric push rod. In the present embodiment, the driving member 3 is preferably an electric push rod. The driving rod of the driving member 3 is connected to the receiving box 4, and the receiving box 4 is driven to move by the driving member 3. The upper and lower sides of the receiving box 4 are both provided with openings. The upper opening is arranged corresponding to the lower outlet of the storage barrel 2, that is, the array substrate dropped from the storage barrel 2 can fall into the receiving box 4, and the cover plate 4.1 is hinged at the lower opening of the receiving box 4 so that the cover plate 4.1 can be rotated along the hinge so that the cover plate 4.1 can be opened or closed. When the receiving box 4 is in the rectangular box body 1, the cover plate 4.1 blocks the lower opening of the receiving box 4. When the receiving box 4 completely leaves the rectangular box body 1, the cover plate 4.1 rotates downward under the action of gravity, so that the lower opening of the receiving box 4 is opened, and the array substrate falls downward, thereby completing the unloading.
[0018] like Figure 2 As shown, a rectangular groove 5 is provided on the upper side of one side of the receiving box 4, and a group of notching knives 6 are connected to the upper side inside the rectangular box 1. The notching knives 6 pass through the rectangular groove 5 so that the notching knives 6 can notch the array substrate inside the receiving box 4.
[0019] A material guide tube 7 is connected to one side of the rectangular box 1. The material guide tube 7 is a rectangular tube. A through groove 7.1 is provided on one side of the material guide tube 7. The through groove 7.1 is connected to the rectangular box 1. When the driving member 3 drives the receiving box 4 to move in the direction of the through groove 7.1, the notching knife 6 will first pass through the rectangular groove 5 to groove the array substrate. After the groove is cut, the receiving box 4 continues to move forward, so that the receiving box 4 passes through the through groove 7.1 and enters the material guide tube 7. At this time, the cover plate 4.1 rotates downward under the action of gravity, so that the lower side of the receiving box 4 is opened, so that the array substrate falls downward, and the array substrate slides into the material box along the material guide tube 7.
[0020] A baffle 4.2 is connected to one side of the receiving box 4. When the receiving box 4 moves forward, the baffle 4.2 moves to the lower outlet of the storage barrel 2, so that the baffle 4.2 can block the lower outlet of the storage barrel 2 to prevent the array substrate in the storage barrel 2 from falling downward.
[0021] A group of clearance grooves 4.3 are provided above one side of the receiving box 4, and the clearance grooves 4.3 extend to the baffle plate 4.2. After the notching knife 6 notches the array substrate, the receiving box 4 continues to move forward, and the notching knife 6 slides in the clearance grooves 4.3. The provision of the clearance grooves 4.3 can prevent the receiving box 4 and the baffle plate 4.2 from hindering the movement of the notching knife 6.
[0022] When the device is in use, a group of array substrates are placed in the storage barrel 2, and the bottom array substrate enters the receiving box 4 under the action of gravity. Then, driven by the driving member 3, the receiving box 4 drives the array substrate to move forward, so that the notching knife 6 slots the array substrate. After the array substrate is slotted, it continues to move forward, so that the receiving box 4 enters the guide tube 7. The cover plate 4.1 rotates downward under the action of gravity, so that the array substrate falls from the receiving box 4 into the guide tube 7, thereby completing the unloading. After the unloading is completed, the driving member 3 drives the receiving box 4 to return to its original position, and the cover plate 4.1 re-blocks the lower opening of the receiving box 4, so that the upper opening of the receiving box 4 is aligned with the lower outlet of the storage barrel 2, so that the bottom array substrate in the storage barrel 2 can enter the receiving box 4, and then the slotting is performed again.
[0023] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only preferred examples of the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.
