Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of double-core optical fiber production, in particular to reinforced double-core optical fiber production equipment. Background Art

[0002] The production steps of reinforced dual-core optical fiber mainly include the following key links: Fiber pretreatment: First, pre-process the optical fiber, including light rolling, stretching, flattening and wrapping, etc., to obtain a thin optical fiber suitable for optical fiber communication. Winding: Wrap a layer of fiberglass tape on the optical fiber to enhance its strength and stability. Filler injection: Inject high-strength, low-expansion filler into the central pipe of the optical cable to prepare for subsequent cable stretching. Carbon fiber reinforcement: Coat the outer layer of the filler with a carbon fiber reinforcement layer to improve the strength and durability of the optical cable. These steps together ensure the mechanical strength and durability of the reinforced dual-core optical fiber, enabling it to resist external physical pressure and chemical corrosion, while maintaining good optical properties to meet the needs of various application scenarios.

[0003] Patent CN208060762U proposes a photonic crystal fiber filling device, which fills the interior of a material box with enough material for fiber filling, inserts the end of the fiber into the interior of the material box through the connecting hole on the top of the material box, and makes the fiber touch the material liquid surface, and then connects the fiber to the vacuum box through the spiral winding tube above the material box. During the connection process, the height of the winding tube and the vacuum box can be adjusted by the extension and contraction between the connecting rod and the sleeve rod to facilitate the fiber to pass through the winding tube, thereby avoiding the vertical placement of the fiber without protection and avoiding the breakage of the fiber. After the fiber connection is completed, the vacuum box is evacuated by a vacuum pump, thereby changing the internal pressure of the vacuum box to achieve the goal of sucking the material into the fiber to complete the filling of the fiber, and the inflatable ball inflates the airbag through the inflatable tube to make the airbag inflated, so as to ensure that the liquid level of the material inside the material box is always immersed in the bottom of the fiber.

[0004] When filling the optical fiber, the above solution needs to insert the optical fiber first, and then draw the filler into the optical fiber sheath through the negative pressure at the vacuum end. This process requires manual installation and placement of the optical fiber, resulting in low filling efficiency. Utility Model Content
