A first spring 315 is arranged on the outside of the outer sleeve 313, and the first spring 315 is located in the threading cabin 1. The threading cabin 1 and the transmission cabin 2 can respectively convey optical fiber and connectors, and dock in the docking cabin 311. The threading ring in the inner sleeve 312 can prevent the optical fiber from being easily deviated when passing through the inner sleeve 312. The first ring 314 can drive the outer sleeve 313 to move in a direction in which the threading cabin 1 remains parallel to the transmission cabin 2. The first ring 314 can push the outer sleeve 313 and the optical fiber in the inner sleeve 312 to approach the connector in the docking cabin 311 when the first spring 315 resumes its extension. Compared with the traditional manual docking method, the optical fiber is avoided from being deviated during the docking process, and the stability of the connection with the connector is ensured.

[0031] An adjusting thread 316 is provided on the outer side of the inner sleeve 312, and the outer sleeve 313 is arranged on the outer side of the inner sleeve 312 through the adjusting thread 316. A knob 317 is fixedly installed on one end of the outer sleeve 313 protruding from the threading cabin 1. When the inner sleeve 312 moves in the threading cabin 1, it cannot rotate. A thread that is compatible with the inner sleeve 312 is provided on the inner side of the adjusting thread 316, so that the adjusting thread 316 can rotate on the outer side of the inner sleeve 312 while maintaining synchronous movement with the inner sleeve 312.

[0032] An outer snap ring 318 is fixedly installed at one end of the outer sleeve 313 away from the knob 317, and an inner snap ring 319 is provided on the side of the outer snap ring 318 away from the docking compartment 311. The inner snap ring 319 is fixedly installed at one end of the inner sleeve 312 close to the outer snap ring 318. The outer snap rings 318 and the outer snap rings 318 are arranged alternately, and the holes through which the optical fiber can pass are formed on the outer snap rings 318 and the inner snap rings 319 and are not located at the center of the circle, so that when the outer snap ring 318 rotates due to the inner sleeve 312, the hole between the outer snap ring 318 and the inner snap ring 319 will be misaligned, thereby completing the length fixation of the optical fiber in the inner sleeve 312, so that the optical fiber is not easy to loosen and fall off during docking.

[0033] The docking piece 32 includes a push rod 321, one end of the push rod 321 protrudes from one end of the transmission cabin 2 away from the docking cabin 311, and the other end of the push rod 321 is fixedly installed with a loading interface 322. The loading interface 322 is movably connected in the transmission cabin 2 through the push rod 321. The push rod 321 is arranged parallel to the transmission cabin 2, and one side of the loading interface 322 is provided with a groove that is compatible with the joint, thereby facilitating the clamping connection with the joint.

[0034] A second ring 323 is fixedly installed on one end of the push rod 321 close to the loading interface 322, and a second spring 324 is arranged on the outer side of the push rod 321, and the second spring 324 is located in the transmission cabin 2. The second ring 323 can push the connector on the loading interface 322 connected to the push rod 321 toward the docking cabin 311 when the second spring 324 is extended, thereby completing the docking assembly of the optical fiber and the connector.

[0035] The limiting member 4 includes a limiting rod 41, which is movably connected in the docking cabin 311. A slide groove 42 is arranged at the bottom of the limiting rod 41, and one end of the slide groove 42 extends into the transmission cabin 2. An opening 43 is arranged on the outer side of the slide groove 42, and the opening 43 is communicated with the inside of the slide groove 42. When the limiting rod 41 is fully plugged into the docking cabin 311, the slide groove 42 is completely isolated. The slide groove 42 is the trajectory of the movement of the connector in the transmission cabin 2, thereby avoiding the displacement of the connector during the docking process. The opening 43 can place the assembled connector into the slide groove 42, and can also remove the assembled optical fiber and connector from the transmission cabin 2.

[0036] When in use, the optical fiber to be connected is passed through the threading ring in the inner sleeve 312 and the outer sleeve 313, and then passed out of the outer sleeve 313. The outer sleeve 313 connected to the first ring 314 is pushed to move toward the end close to the docking cabin 311 in the transmission cabin 2 by restoring the stretched first spring 315, so that the optical fiber in the inner sleeve 312 reaches the docking cabin 311 that is connected to the interior of the transmission cabin 2, thereby completing the docking with the connector in the docking cabin 311 that is transported through the transmission cabin 2. Compared with the traditional manual docking method, the optical fiber is avoided from being offset during the docking process, and the stability of the connection with the connector is ensured. In this process, the knob 317 on the outer sleeve 313 connected to the inner sleeve 312 through the adjusting thread 316 is turned, so that the outer sleeve 313 maintains contact with the inner sleeve 312 While moving synchronously, it can rotate on the outside of the inner sleeve 312. At this time, the holes on the inner retaining ring 319 connected to the inner sleeve 312 and the outer retaining ring 318 connected to the outer sleeve 313 are slightly misaligned, and the optical fiber passing through the outer sleeve 313 is fixed, thereby reducing the probability of the optical fiber loosening and falling off, and the connector is sent into the slide groove 42 isolated from the docking cabin 311 by the limit rod 41 through the opening 43, and the push rod 321 connected to the second ring 323 is pushed toward one end of the docking cabin 311 by the second spring 324 that restores the extension, so that the connection with the connector in the slide groove 42 is completed through the feeding interface 322, and when entering the docking cabin 311, the docking assembly of the optical fiber and the connector is completed, and finally the assembled optical fiber and connector are removed from the transmission cabin 2 through the opening 43, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0037] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
