Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of optical fiber manufacturing, and more specifically to a suspension mechanism for grinding equipment. Background Art

[0002] The description in this section merely provides background information related to the disclosure of the present utility model and does not constitute prior art.

[0003] The optical fiber grinder is a device specially used to grind various optical fiber connector products. It is mainly used to grind the end face of optical fiber ceramic ferrule. It is widely used in the optical communication industry and is an irreplaceable equipment.

[0004] Prior art includes an optical fiber grinder with publication number CN115946002A. The patent document discloses a grinding mechanism, including a workbench, a sponge pad installed on the workbench, and a grinding sheet attached to the sponge pad and used for grinding the optical fiber ferrule; a lifting mechanism installed on one side of the grinding mechanism, the lifting mechanism including a transmission rod and a lifting bracket arranged on the transmission rod; a sensor for detecting the position of the optical fiber ferrule after the lifting and moving of the lifting bracket; a controller for controlling the lifting and lowering of the lifting bracket; a grinding disc for installing the optical fiber ferrule, the grinding disc being installed on the lifting bracket and arranged opposite to the workbench; when the sensor detects that the optical fiber ferrule is moved to a first preset position by the lifting bracket, the sensor sends a feedback signal to trigger the controller to control the workbench to rotate and drive the grinding sheet to rotate so as to grind the optical fiber ferrule. The optical fiber ferrule is installed on a lifting bracket through a grinding disc, and the grinding sheet is attached to the sponge pad. It requires relatively high manufacturing and installation accuracy. If there is an installation error, the bottom sponge alone cannot correct it, which will cause poor consistency of the optical fiber ferrule surface after grinding and the flatness cannot meet the requirements, thus affecting product quality.
