Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of optical fiber preform rods, and more specifically, to an optical fiber preform rod adjustment structure. Background Art
[0002] Optical fiber preform is the core raw material for manufacturing quartz series optical fibers. It is a glass rod with a specific refractive index distribution. The quality and performance of the preform largely determine the quality of the final optical fiber, such as the loss, strength, and bandwidth of the optical fiber.
[0003] At present, the optical fiber drawing process uses preform rods as raw materials, softens them by high-temperature heating, and then, under the action of gravity or external tension, the softened part of the material is drawn into filaments, which are optical fibers.
[0004] However, the optical fiber preform consists of a core layer and a cladding layer. The core layer is the main channel for optical signal transmission. During the drawing process, if the position of the preform is not adjusted properly, the core layer may deviate from the center position, which will cause the refractive index distribution of the optical fiber to not meet the design requirements. As a result, the optical signal cannot be well confined in the core layer during transmission, thereby increasing light loss and seriously affecting the transmission performance of the optical fiber. An optical fiber preform adjustment structure is now proposed to improve the existing problems. Utility Model Content

[0009] The adjustment assembly includes two groups of first cylinders, which are arranged on the top of the top plate and are used to adjust the vertical position of the preform rods.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the bracket assembly provides stable support for the device, ensuring the normal progress of the adjustment work. An adjustment assembly is provided on one side of the bracket assembly, and a preform rod is provided in the middle position of the adjustment assembly. The adjustment assembly is used to clamp and adjust the position of the preform rod.

[0016] The present invention is further configured as follows: a first slide rail is provided on the other side of the base plate in a sliding connection, and the first slide rail is fixedly connected to the support plate.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when the first cylinder is started, the output end of the first cylinder contacts the first slider, and the first cylinder pushes the first slider to move vertically downward along the second slide rail, so as to facilitate adjustment of the vertical position of the preform rod clamped between the clamps. According to the actual needs of optical fiber preparation, the position of the preform rod is adjusted to make the preform rod more in line with the preparation needs, thereby improving the optical fiber production efficiency; when the second cylinder is started, the second cylinder drives the bottom plate to move along the first slide rail.

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0030] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by ordinary technicians in the technical field to which this application belongs.
[0031] For example 1, please refer to Figure 1-4 , the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0032] See Figure 1 An optical fiber preform rod adjustment structure includes a bracket assembly 1, which provides stable support for the device to ensure the normal progress of the adjustment work. An adjustment assembly 2 is provided on one side of the bracket assembly 1, and a preform rod 3 is provided in the middle position of the adjustment assembly 2. The adjustment assembly 2 is used to clamp and adjust the position of the preform rod 3.
[0033] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The bracket assembly 1 includes a support plate 11, a top plate 12 is provided above the support plate 11, two groups of support columns 16 are provided below the top plate 12, the support columns 16 are fixedly connected to the top plate 12, and a group of support seats 15 are respectively provided at the bottom of the two groups of support columns 16, and the support columns 16 are respectively fixedly connected to the support seats 15.
[0034] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 The adjustment assembly 2 includes two groups of first cylinders 21. The first cylinders 21 are arranged on the top of the top plate 12. The first cylinders 21 are used to adjust the vertical position of the preform rod 3. A group of second cylinders 22 are respectively provided on the two groups of support columns 16. The second cylinders 22 are used to clamp the preform rod 3.
[0035] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 The output ends of the two groups of first cylinders 21 respectively pass through the top plate 12, and a group of first sliders 23 are respectively provided below the output ends of the two groups of first cylinders 21.
[0036] See Figure 2 and Figure 4 A group of clamping jaws 26 is connected to one side of each of the two groups of first sliders 23. The opening directions of the two groups of clamping jaws 26 are set facing each other. The preform rod 3 is set in the middle position of the two groups of clamping jaws 26. The shape of the preform rod 3 is adapted to the shape of the two groups of clamping jaws 26. The clamping jaws 26 have a large clamping range for the preform rod 3, which is convenient for maintaining the stability of the preform rod 3 and ensuring that the preform rod 3 is not prone to shaking during the movement and adjustment process.
[0037] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 The output end of the second cylinder 22 passes through the support column 16 , and the output ends of the two groups of second cylinders 22 are respectively connected to a group of bottom plates 24 .
[0038] See Figure 2 and Figure 3A second slide rail 25 is connected to one side of the bottom plate 24, and the first slider 23 is arranged on the side of the second slide rail 25 away from the bottom plate 24, and the first slider 23 slides relative to the second slide rail 25. When the first cylinder 21 is started, the output end of the first cylinder 21 contacts the first slider 23, and the first cylinder 21 pushes the first slider 23 to move vertically downward along the second slide rail 25, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the vertical position of the preform rod 3 clamped by the clamping jaws 26.

The two groups of second cylinders 22 respectively drive the two groups of clamps 26 to move toward each other, further clamping and stabilizing the preform rod 3. Finally, the first cylinder 21 is activated, and the output end of the first cylinder 21 vertically downward contacts the first slider 23. The first cylinder 21 pushes the first slider 23 downward, and finally determines the position of the preform rod 3.
