[0024] Example 1

[0025] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a low-loss double-hole optical fiber preform for optical fiber communication, including an optical fiber preform 1; a connecting component 2, wherein the connecting component 2 is installed at the top of the optical fiber preform 1, the bottom of the connecting component 2 is connected to the optical fiber preform 1, and the top of the connecting component 2 is connected to the stretching equipment of the optical fiber preform; wherein the optical fiber preform 1 includes a rod body 101; a limit head 102, wherein the limit head 102 is installed at the top of the rod body 101, and the limit head 101 is connected to the connecting component 2; and a plug 3, wherein the plug 3 is installed at the bottom of the rod body 1.

[0026] Through the above technical solution, when the optical fiber preform is installed in the drawing furnace, the connecting assembly is first connected to the top of the optical fiber preform, and then the connecting assembly is connected to the drawing furnace. The setting of the limit head at the top of the optical fiber preform body can prevent the connecting assembly from slipping when clamping and fixing the optical fiber preform, and the setting of the plug at the bottom of the rod body can prevent the bottom of the optical fiber preform from being damaged due to bumps when taking the optical fiber preform, and can also prevent dirt from entering the optical fiber preform from the bottom of the optical fiber preform.

[0027] In this embodiment, the connecting component 2 includes a mounting frame 21, two of which are provided. The mounting frame 21 is installed at the top of the rod body 101, and a mounting groove 22 is symmetrically opened on a side wall adjacent to the mounting frame 21; a telescopic rod 24, the telescopic rod 24 is installed in the mounting groove 22, a spring 25 is sleeved on the telescopic rod 24, and the two ends of the spring 25 are respectively connected to the groove walls of the mounting groove 22; a clamping block 23, two of which are provided, the clamping block 23 is installed on the mounting frame 21, the clamping block 23 abuts against the outer wall of the rod body 101, and the top of the clamping block 23 abuts against the bottom of the limit head 102; a connecting plate 26, the connecting plate 26 is installed at the top of the mounting frame 21, the connecting plate 26 is slidably connected to the top of the mounting frame 21, and a connecting screw 27 is provided on the connecting plate 26.

[0028] Through the above technical scheme, when the connecting assembly is working, the staff pulls the two mounting frames to move away from each other at the bottom of the connecting plate, thereby increasing the distance between the two mounting frames, and then sleeves the mounting frame onto the rod body, and the rod body is clamped by the clamping block installed on the mounting frame, which facilitates the clamping of the optical fiber preform rod. When the mounting frame is pulled open, the telescopic rod installed in the mounting groove is lengthened, and the spring sleeved on the telescopic rod is also stretched accordingly. Due to the setting of the spring, when the rod body is clamped by the clamping block, the staff releases the mounting frame, and the stretched spring resets. As the spring resets, the spring can drive the two mounting frames to move closer to each other, and the telescopic rod also begins to shorten, thereby ensuring the stability of the clamping of the rod body, and the coordinated use of the clamping block and the limit head can prevent the rod body from detaching from the connecting assembly, thereby ensuring the reliability of the clamping of the optical fiber preform rod.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] like Figure 4 to Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, a low-loss double-hole optical fiber preform for optical fiber communication is provided. In addition to the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, it also has the following technical features: the plug 3 includes a cover body 31, and the top of the cover body 31 is provided with a receiving groove 32 that matches the bottom size of the rod body 101; an insertion rod 33, the insertion rod 33 is installed in the receiving groove 32, the insertion rod 33 is plugged into the bottom of the rod body 101, and a limiting block 34 is provided on the top of the insertion rod 33.

[0031] Through the above technical solution, when the plug is installed on the bottom of the rod body, the bottom of the rod body is inserted into the receiving groove on the end cover, and the insertion rod installed in the receiving groove is inserted into the rod body. At the same time, the limit on the insertion rod abuts against the inner wall of the rod body, thereby preventing the plug from separating from the rod body, thereby improving the reliability of the plug.

[0032] In this embodiment, the clamping blocks 23 are made of heat-insulating material, and the sides of the two clamping blocks 23 that contact the rod body 101 are in a semicircular arc shape.

[0033] Through the above technical solution, by making the clamp block out of heat-insulating material, it is possible to avoid the problem that after the rod body is heated, the heat is transferred to the connecting component by the clamp block, thereby causing damage to the connecting component. The side of the clamp block in contact with the rod body is set to a semicircular arc shape, which facilitates the fitting of the clamp block and the rod body.

[0034] The embodiments of the present application are described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. The present application is not limited to the above-mentioned specific implementation methods. The above-mentioned specific implementation methods are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Under the guidance of the present application, ordinary technicians in this field can also make many forms without departing from the purpose of the present application and the scope of protection of the claims, all of which are within the protection of the present application.
