[0021] Embodiment: An optical fiber cutting device for an optical fiber fusion splicer, as Figures 1 - 6As shown in the figure, it includes a machine frame 1, a first placement plate 2, a second placement plate 3, a first damping shaft 4, a fixing plate 5, a third placement plate 6, a connecting frame 7, a second damping shaft 8, a rotating frame 9, a cutter 10, a slider 11, a mounting plate 12, a sleeve 13, a sliding rod 14, a scale bar 15, a connecting plate 16, a connecting block 18, a pin rod 20, a baffle 21, a docking frame 22, a first collection box 23, a docking plate 24, a fan 26, a protective net 27, a second collection box 28 and a pull ring 29. A chute 101 is provided on the machine frame 1. The first placement plate 2 is placed on the machine frame 1. The right side surface of the first placement plate 2 is connected to the second placement plate 3. The rear side of the first placement plate 2 is rotatably connected to the first damping shaft 4. The fixing plate 5 is connected to the first damping shaft 4. The fixing plate 5 is used to fix the optical fiber. The third placement plate 6 is placed on the machine frame 1. The front side surface of the third placement plate 6 is connected to the connecting frame 7. The connecting frame 7 is in a U shape. The second damping shaft 8 is rotatably connected inside the connecting frame 7. The rotating frame 9 is connected to the second damping shaft 8. The cutter 10 is connected to the lower side of the rotating frame 9. The cutter 10 is used to cut the optical fiber. The blade of the cutter 10 is made of high-carbon stainless steel material. The front side surface of the second placement plate 3 is connected to the slider 11. The slider 11 is slidably engaged with the chute 101. The front side surface of the first placement plate 2 is connected to the mounting plate 12. The right side surface of the mounting plate 12 is connected to the sleeve 13. The sliding rod 14 is slidably connected inside the sleeve 13. A plurality of scale bars 15 are evenly spaced and connected to the sliding rod 14. The scale bars 15 are used to observe the adjusted length. The right end of the sliding rod 14 is connected to the connecting plate 16. A plurality of fixing holes 17 are evenly spaced and opened on the front side surface of the connecting plate 16. The connecting block 18 is connected to the front side of the sleeve 13. A plurality of adjusting holes 19 are evenly spaced and opened on the connecting block 18. The pin rod 20 is clamped on the fixing hole 17. The pin rod 20 fixes the sliding rod 14. The pin rod 20 is clamped and engaged with the adjusting hole 19. The baffle 21 is connected to the front side of the third placement plate 6. The docking frames 22 are symmetrically connected to the front and rear sides on the right side of the third placement plate 6. The docking plate 24 is placed on the docking frames 22. The docking groove 25 is opened on the docking plate 24. The docking frames 22 are clamped and engaged with the docking groove 25. The first collection box 23 is connected between the two docking plates 24 and is used to collect the cut waste materials. Two fans 26 are placed on the machine frame 1. The protective net 27 is connected to the rear side of the fan 26 to protect the fan. The second collection box 28 is connected to the rear side of the machine frame 1 to collect the debris. The pull ring 29 is connected to the front side of the pin rod 20.
[0022] When the device needs to be used and the optical fiber needs to be cut, the user pulls the pull ring 29 to drive the pin rod 20 to move outward along the fixed hole 17 and the adjustment hole 19. When the pin rod 20 moves to a suitable position, the user removes the pin rod 20, so that the pin rod 20 is disengaged from the fixed hole 17 and the adjustment hole 19. Then, the user pulls the connecting plate 16 to drive the sliding rod 14 and the scale bar 15 to move outward along the sleeve 13. During the movement of the sliding rod 14, the user can judge the distance that the sliding rod 14 is pulled out through the scale bar 15. When the sliding rod 14 moves to a suitable position, the pin rod 20 is placed on the fixed hole 17 and aligned with it, and then the pin rod 20 is pushed to move inward along the fixed hole 17 and the adjustment hole 19. When the pin rod 20 moves to a suitable position, the user releases the pin rod 20, which is convenient for the pin rod 20 to fix the sliding rod 14. Since the initial state of the fixing plate 5 is an open state, during the placement of the optical fiber, the user exposes the part of the optical fiber to be cut according to the distance that the sliding rod 14 is pulled out and places it in the middle position of the second placement plate 3, and the remaining part is placed in the middle position of the first placement plate 2. At this time, the exposed part of the optical fiber cutting part is aligned with the distance that the sliding rod 14 is pulled out. After the optical fiber is placed, the fixing plate 5 is pulled to drive the first damping shaft 4 to rotate reversely. When the fixing plate 5 rotates reversely and contacts the optical fiber, and the fixing plate 5 is continuously pulled to rotate until the fixing plate 5 rotates to fit with the first placement plate 2, the fixing plate 5 is released, which is convenient to fix the optical fiber between the fixing plate 5 and the first placement plate 2. Then, the rotating frame 9 is pulled to drive the cutter 10 and the second damping shaft 8 to rotate along the connecting frame 7. When the rotating frame 9 rotates to a suitable position, the pulling of the rotating frame 9 is stopped. Subsequently, the first placement plate 2 is pushed to drive the second placement plate 3 and the slider 11 to move rightward along the chute 101. During the movement of the first placement plate 2, all the components on it are driven to move rightward. When the connecting plate 16 moves into contact with the baffle 21, the fixing of the first placement plate 2 is completed, and the user stops pushing the first placement plate 2. At this time, the part of the optical fiber to be cut moves to the groove above the third placement plate 6. Then, the rotating frame 9 is pulled to drive the cutter 10 and the second damping shaft 8 to rotate reversely along the connecting frame 7. When the cutter 10 rotates reversely and contacts the part of the optical fiber to be cut and cuts it, the cut optical fiber falls into the first collection box 23. Subsequently, the rotating frame 9 is pulled to drive the cutter 10 and the second damping shaft 8 to rotate along the connecting frame 7. When the rotating frame 9 rotates to a suitable position, the rotating frame 9 is released. During the optical fiber cutting process, debris will be generated. When the debris needs to be collected, the fan 26 is turned on, so that the fan 26 blows the cut debris into the second collection box 28. When all the debris is blown into the second collection box 28, the fan 26 is turned off. Then, the first placement plate 2 is pulled to drive the second placement plate 3 and the slider 11 to move leftward along the chute 101. During the movement of the first placement plate 2, all the components on it are driven to move leftward. When the optical fiber needs to be cut again, the above operations are repeated.
[0023] The above are only examples of the implementation of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any equivalent replacement made within the principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model. The content not elaborated in detail in the present utility model belongs to the well-known prior art in the technical field of this specialty.
