Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of optical fiber fusion splicer clamping, and in particular to a clamping structure of an optical fiber fusion splicer. Background Art
[0002] Fiber fusion splicer is a high-tech equipment that combines optics, electronic technology and precision machinery. It is mainly used for the construction and maintenance of optical cables in optical communications, so it is also called optical cable fusion splicer. The general working principle is to use high-voltage arc to melt the two optical fiber sections and use high-precision motion mechanism to smoothly push the two optical fibers into one. The fused optical fiber has the characteristics of low loss and high mechanical strength, so as to achieve the coupling of optical fiber mode field and realize effective signal transmission.
[0003] However, in actual applications, when clamping multiple optical fibers at the same time, most of the existing optical fiber fusion splicers usually place multiple optical fibers in different clamping holes in sequence, and then close the cover to achieve the purpose of clamping and fixing multiple optical fibers at one time. However, since the optical fiber itself has a certain resilience, in the process of placing the optical fibers in sequence, the optical fiber is easily affected by its own resilience and easily pops out of the clamping hole. At this time, the workers need to place it again, which will cause certain inconveniences and waste time, which is not conducive to promotion and use.
[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a clamping structure for an optical fiber fusion splicer to solve the problems raised in the above background technology. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to solve the problem raised in the above background technology that the optical fiber itself has a certain resilience, and in the process of placing the optical fiber in sequence, it is easy to be affected by the resilience of the optical fiber itself, causing the placed optical fiber to pop out of the clamping hole, and the worker needs to place it again, which will cause certain inconveniences and waste time, and is not conducive to promotion and use, the present application provides a clamping structure for an optical fiber fusion splicer.
[0006] The clamping structure of a fiber optic fusion splicer provided in the present application adopts the following technical solution: it includes a clamping platform, a plurality of clamping grooves are opened on the top side of the clamping platform, a plurality of clamping covers are hingedly connected to the rear side of the clamping platform, the plurality of clamping covers are respectively located directly above the clamping grooves, a plurality of stop blocks are fixedly connected to the front side of the clamping platform, the plurality of stop blocks correspond one-to-one to the plurality of clamping covers, and the plurality of clamping covers are all made of elastic steel sheets.
[0007] Preferably, transmission grooves are formed on the bottom sides of the plurality of clamping covers, transmission blocks are fixedly connected to the right sides of the plurality of clamping covers, and the plurality of transmission blocks are in contact with the inner walls of the plurality of transmission grooves respectively.
[0008] Preferably, the bottom sides of the plurality of clamping covers are fixedly connected with rubber pads.
[0009] Preferably, both upper and lower front corners of the plurality of stoppers are chamfered.
[0010] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:
[0011] 1. By setting the clamping cover and the stopper, multiple optical fibers are placed into the clamping groove in sequence from left to right, and then the placed optical fibers are pressed and fixed in sequence from left to right by using the multiple clamping covers. The independent pressing characteristics of the multiple clamping covers can prevent the optical fibers from popping out of the clamping groove, thereby avoiding the occurrence of secondary placement, improving convenience while saving a lot of time, and being conducive to popularization and use. At the same time, the stopper can limit the position of the clamping cover after it is flipped over to prevent the clamping cover from tilting up, effectively ensuring the stability of the optical fiber clamping.
[0012] 2. By setting the transmission groove and the transmission block, after multiple clamping covers clamp multiple optical fibers, when multiple processed optical fibers need to be taken out later, the leftmost clamping cover is manually flipped over. At this time, the driving force exerted on the clamping cover will be transmitted to all other clamping covers through the transmission block and the transmission groove, so that all the clamping covers can be opened at one time, thereby effectively improving the convenience of use.

[0017] The following will be combined with the attached Figure 1-3 The technical solution of the utility model is described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of 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.
[0018] The present application embodiment discloses a clamping structure of an optical fiber fusion splicer, referring to Figure 1-3 , including a clamping platform 1, a plurality of clamping grooves are opened on the top side of the clamping platform 1, a plurality of clamping covers 2 are hingedly connected to the rear side of the clamping platform 1, and the plurality of clamping covers 2 are respectively located directly above the clamping grooves, and a plurality of stoppers 3 are fixedly connected to the front side of the clamping platform 1, and the plurality of stoppers 3 correspond to the plurality of clamping covers 2 one by one, and the plurality of clamping covers 2 are all made of elastic steel sheets; by setting the clamping covers 2 and the stoppers 3, a plurality of optical fibers are sequentially placed into the inside of the clamping grooves from left to right, and then the placed optical fibers are sequentially pressed and fixed by the plurality of clamping covers 2 in sequence from left to right. The independent pressing characteristics of the plurality of clamping covers 2 can prevent the optical fibers from popping out of the clamping grooves, thereby avoiding the occurrence of secondary placement, improving convenience and saving a lot of time, which is conducive to popularization and use. At the same time, the stoppers 3 can limit the position of the clamping covers 2 after they are flipped over to prevent the clamping covers 2 from tilting, thereby effectively ensuring the stability of the optical fiber clamping.
[0019] In the present application, transmission grooves are provided on the bottom sides of the multiple clamping covers 2, and transmission blocks 4 are fixedly connected to the right sides of the multiple clamping covers 2, and the multiple transmission blocks 4 are respectively in contact with the inner walls of the multiple transmission grooves; by setting the transmission grooves and the transmission blocks 4, after the multiple clamping covers 2 clamp the multiple optical fibers, when the multiple processed optical fibers need to be taken out later, the leftmost clamping cover 2 is manually flipped over, and the driving force exerted on the clamping cover 2 at this time will be transmitted to all other clamping covers 2 by means of the transmission block 4 and the transmission groove, so that the effect of opening all the clamping covers 2 at one time can be achieved, thereby effectively improving the convenience of use.
[0020] In the present application, the bottom sides of the multiple clamping covers 2 are fixedly connected with rubber pads 5; by providing the rubber pads 5, when the optical fiber is placed in the clamping groove and clamped by the clamping cover 2, the rubber pads 5 will be deformed under the action of the pressure of the clamping cover 2 so as to fill the inside of the clamping groove, thereby further improving the stability of the optical fiber clamping.
[0021] In the present application, the upper and lower front corners of the multiple blocks 3 are both chamfered; by setting the upper and lower front corners of the multiple blocks 3 to be chamfered, interference between the clamping cover 2 and the block 3 can be avoided, thereby effectively improving the smoothness of the operation process.
[0022] The standard parts used in the utility model can all be purchased from the market, and special-shaped parts can be customized according to the instructions and the drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt the conventional means such as mature bolts, rivets, welding, etc. in the existing technology. The machinery, parts and equipment all adopt the conventional models in the existing technology, and the circuit connection adopts the conventional connection method in the existing technology, which will not be described in detail here.
[0023] The implementation principle of the clamping structure of an optical fiber fusion splicer in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: when in use, multiple optical fibers are placed into the clamping groove in sequence from left to right, and then multiple clamping covers 2 are used to compress and fix the placed optical fibers in sequence from left to right. The independent compression characteristics of multiple clamping covers 2 can prevent the optical fibers from popping out of the clamping groove, thereby avoiding the occurrence of secondary placement, improving convenience while saving a lot of time, and being conducive to popularization and use. At the same time, the stopper 3 can limit the position of the clamping cover 2 after it is flipped over to prevent the clamping cover 2 from tilting up, effectively ensuring the stability of the optical fiber clamping. After multiple clamping covers 2 clamp multiple optical fibers, multiple clamping covers 2 can be added later. When the completed optical fiber is taken out, the leftmost clamping cover 2 is manually flipped over. At this time, the driving force exerted on the clamping cover 2 will be transmitted to all other clamping covers 2 through the transmission block 4 and the transmission groove, so that all clamping covers 2 can be opened at one time, thereby effectively improving the convenience of use. When the optical fiber is placed in the clamping groove and clamped by the clamping cover 2, the rubber pad 5 will deform under the action of the pressure of the clamping cover 2 to fill the inside of the clamping groove, thereby further improving the stability of the optical fiber clamping. The upper and lower corners of the front side of the multiple blocks 3 are chamfered to avoid interference between the clamping cover 2 and the block 3 during the buckling process, effectively improving the smoothness of the operation process.
