Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of communications, and particularly to an optical cable splice closure. Background Art
[0002] Optical cable splice closures are widely used in the field of communications. An optical cable splice closure is internally provided with optical cable connectors. Through the optical cable connectors, an optical cable splice closure can realize functions such as optical fiber fusion splicing, wiring, dispatching, and testing between optical cables. It is a hub for signal transmission, dispatching, and conversion between optical signal transceiver devices, and has functions such as optical signal dispatching and switching.
[0003] In a communication line, the failure rate of the optical cable in the optical cable splice closure is relatively high. For example, due to poor sealing performance of the optical cable splice closure, water enters the optical cable splice closure, resulting in increased optical cable loss and fiber breakage; for an overhead optical cable affected by the external environment, poor connection due to thermal expansion and contraction, etc. To repair the optical cable in the optical cable splice closure, the staff needs to open the box cover multiple times. However, since the box body and the box cover are connected by multiple bolts, each bolt needs to be screwed multiple times to complete disassembly and assembly, which is cumbersome and has low work efficiency. To solve this problem, an optical cable splice closure is proposed. Summary of the Utility Model

[0022] On both sides of the surface of the upper box 6, two second semi-circular grooves 7 are provided. On the surface of the upper box 6 close to the second semi-circular groove 7, a second protective sleeve 5 is fixedly connected. On the outer surface of the lower box 12, two first cross plates 11 are fixedly connected. At the top of the two first cross plates 11, a locking assembly is provided for the optical cable after installation. On one side of the surface of the upper box 6, two second cross plates 22 are symmetrically and fixedly connected. At the bottom of the two second cross plates 22, insertion blocks 23 are fixedly connected. The two sides of the outer surface of the two insertion blocks 23 are semi-circularly arranged. Bolts 4 are installed on the surface of a plurality of card sleeves 13. At the top of the two fixing blocks 14, a plurality of connection holes are provided. The bottoms of the plurality of bolts 4 are threadedly installed into the interiors of the corresponding connection holes. The connection of the bolts 4 facilitates the preliminary fixation of the optical cable and avoids loosening during use. At the bottom of the lower box 12, two mounting plates 3 are symmetrically and fixedly connected. On the surfaces of the two mounting plates 3, two mounting holes 1 are provided. The mounting holes 1 on the surfaces of the mounting plates 3 facilitate the installation of the optical cable splice box to a suitable position and improve the convenience during use. On the surface of the upper box 6, a plurality of water guide grooves 15 are provided, which can quickly discharge rainwater in rainy weather, prevent rainwater from seeping into the splice box, and ensure the safety of the splice box during use. A sealing ring is provided at the connection between the upper box 6 and the lower box 12 to ensure the sealing performance after the upper box 6 and the lower box 12 are connected.
[0023] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the locking assembly includes a mounting block 16. The mounting block 16 is fixedly connected to the surface of the first cross plate 11.
