[0021] The utility model provides an optical fiber reel with a positioning function, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the optical fiber reel with a positioning function comprises: a barrel 1, flange rings 16 are fixedly mounted at both ends of the barrel 1, and a foam pad 2 is arranged on the outer surface of the barrel 1; an assembly frame 3, the assembly frame 3 is arranged on the flange ring 16 and is spaced apart from the barrel in parallel, and the free end of the assembly frame 3 is connected to a guide roller 4 for guiding the optical fiber through a frame; a liftable pressure block 5 for positioning the optical fiber, the pressure block 5 is arranged in the frame, and an assembly block 6 is arranged on the top of the pressure block 5; a screw rod 7 for regulating the lifting and lowering of the assembly block 6, the screw rod 7 is rotatably mounted on the assembly block 6, and the top thread of the screw rod 7 passes through the assembly frame 3; a knob 8, the knob 8 is fixedly mounted on the top of the screw rod 7; a guide mechanism for guiding the assembly block 6, and the guide mechanism is arranged in the frame.

[0022] It should be noted that although the current optical fiber reels play an important role in optical fiber communication networks and can meet basic winding and pay-out needs, in actual applications, especially in large-scale optical fiber communication networks, optical fiber reels still face some challenges; the lack of optical fiber positioning function: in large-scale communication networks, the number of optical fibers may reach thousands or even tens of thousands. With such a large number, it becomes particularly important to accurately manage each optical fiber. However, traditional optical fiber reels do not fully consider the needs of optical fiber positioning during design, resulting in the inability to accurately position the optical fiber when storing and releasing the optical fiber; this not only increases the difficulty of the work of operation and maintenance personnel, but also affects the stability and reliability of the optical fiber communication network; optical fiber is prone to loosening during winding and pay-out: due to the lack of an effective positioning structure, the optical fiber is prone to become loose during winding and pay-out; loose optical fiber is not only easily damaged, but may also cause crossing and entanglement between optical fibers, further increasing the complexity and difficulty of operation and maintenance. In addition, loose optical fibers may also affect the performance of the optical fiber communication network, such as increasing signal attenuation, reducing transmission efficiency, etc.; Impact on the stability and reliability of the optical fiber communication network: Damage and looseness of optical fibers may have a negative impact on the stability and reliability of the optical fiber communication network. Damage to the optical fiber may cause signal interruption or reduced transmission quality, affecting the normal operation of the network; and the loose state of the optical fiber may increase the difficulty of troubleshooting and repairing, further reducing the reliability of the network; In summary, the lack of optical fiber positioning function in existing optical fiber reels and the problem of optical fiber being easy to loosen during winding and unwinding not only increase the difficulty of the operation and maintenance personnel's work, but also affect the stability and reliability of the optical fiber communication network. Therefore, the development of an optical fiber reel with a positioning function can achieve precise management of optical fibers and reduce the risk of optical fiber damage and looseness, which is of great significance to improving the stability and reliability of optical fiber communication networks;

[0023] In this embodiment, the barrel 1 is the main part of the optical fiber reel, responsible for carrying and storing the optical fiber. The flange rings 16 are fixedly installed at both ends of the barrel 1, which not only enhances the structural strength of the barrel 1, but also facilitates connection and fixation with other equipment or structures. This design enables the optical fiber reel to be stably placed in the desired position to ensure the safe storage of the optical fiber; the outer surface of the barrel 1 is provided with a foam pad 2, the main function of which is to provide additional protection to prevent the optical fiber from being worn or scratched due to direct contact with the barrel 1 during winding and unwinding. The soft material and buffering performance of the foam pad 2 effectively reduce the risk of damage to the optical fiber; the assembly frame 3 is installed on the flange ring 16 as the core part of the optical fiber guiding and management. The guide roller 4 is arranged on the assembly frame 3 to guide the optical fiber to maintain an orderly and non-loose state during winding and unwinding.

The guide mechanism includes components such as a guide groove 9, a slider 10 and a ball 11, which work together to provide precise guidance and support for the lifting and lowering of the pressure block 5.

This design effectively reduces the shaking and deviation of the pressure block 5 during the lifting process, and improves the accuracy of optical fiber positioning; the ball 11 is embedded on the other end of the slider 10 and contacts the inner wall of the guide groove 9. The design of the ball 11 makes the slider 10 slide more smoothly in the guide groove 9, reducing friction resistance.

This design makes the installation of the guide roller 4 more stable, reduces the shaking or deviation of the guide roller 4 during the optical fiber winding and unwinding process, thereby ensuring the smooth guiding and precise positioning of the optical fiber.
