Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical fiber manufacturing technology, and in particular to a full protective cover device and equipment for an optical fiber production take-up machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the optical fiber manufacturing process, two types of fiber breakage can occur. The first is breakage during reel switching. Dual-reel take-up machines need to switch to the other side after the take-up length on one side reaches a set value to ensure uninterrupted take-up and screening processes, improving production efficiency. Since the fiber is continuous when switching from one side to the other, external intervention is required to cut it. The second is automatic fiber breakage. During the fiber drawing process, abnormal situations may occur, leading to fiber breakage. Regardless of the type of breakage, the fiber will produce a tail end moving at high speed, jerking the normally arranged fibers on the take-up reel and disrupting the reel. After unloading, the disrupted fibers need to be screened out so that the normal fibers can be processed into qualified products, ensuring product quality. This operation increases labor costs and results in significant fiber loss, increasing production costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the defects in the prior art where the normal optical fiber on the take-up reel is pulled out after the optical fiber breaks, resulting in low product quality and high production costs.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a full protective cover device for an optical fiber production take-up machine, comprising:

[0005] A rotating assembly includes a drive gear, a first arc plate, and a second arc plate. The first arc plate and the second arc plate are disposed on both sides of the drive gear. The first arc plate has a first tooth groove on the side closer to the drive gear, and the second arc plate has a second tooth groove on the side closer to the drive gear. Both the first tooth groove and the second tooth groove mesh with the drive gear.

[0006] The protective component includes a first arc-shaped protective cover and a second arc-shaped protective cover, wherein the first arc-shaped protective cover is connected to the first arc-shaped plate, and the second arc-shaped protective cover is connected to the second arc-shaped plate.

[0007] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first arc-shaped protective cover and the second arc-shaped protective cover are both semi-circular arc plates, the radius of the first arc-shaped protective cover is larger than the radius of the second arc-shaped protective cover, and the first arc-shaped protective cover and the second arc-shaped protective cover are concentrically arranged.

[0008] In one embodiment of this utility model, the first arc-shaped protective cover is disposed perpendicular to the first arc-shaped plate, and the second arc-shaped protective cover is disposed perpendicular to the second arc-shaped plate.

[0009] In one embodiment of the present invention, the rotating assembly further includes a support plate and a drive source, the drive source being connected to the support plate, and the output end of the drive source passing through the support plate and connected to the drive gear.

[0010] In one embodiment of the present invention, the surface of the support plate is provided with a first arc-shaped track and a second arc-shaped track, and the first arc-shaped plate and the second arc-shaped plate are slidably connected to the first arc-shaped track and the second arc-shaped track, respectively.

[0011] In one embodiment of this utility model, rollers are provided on the side of the first arc-shaped plate and the second arc-shaped plate near the support plate, and the rollers are engaged in the first arc-shaped track and the second arc-shaped track.

[0012] In one embodiment of this utility model, a telescopic cylinder is provided on the top of the support plate, and the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder is connected to the support plate.

[0013] In one embodiment of this utility model, the axial length of the first arc-shaped protective cover is equal to the axial length of the second arc-shaped protective cover.

[0014] A full protective cover device for an optical fiber production take-up machine includes the aforementioned full protective cover device for an optical fiber production take-up machine, and also includes a take-up reel, which is disposed inside the first arc-shaped protective cover and the second arc-shaped protective cover.

[0015] In one embodiment of this utility model, the radii of the first arc-shaped protective cover and the second arc-shaped protective cover are both greater than the radius of the take-up reel; the axial length of the first arc-shaped protective cover and the axial length of the second arc-shaped protective cover are greater than the axial length of the take-up reel.

[0016] The above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0017] The present invention relates to a full protective cover device and equipment for an optical fiber production take-up machine. During use, the drive gear drives the first arc-shaped protective cover and the second protective cover to close, forming a protective cover that covers the outside of the take-up reel.

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand and implement the present invention. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] Reference Figures 1-7 As shown, this utility model discloses a full protective cover device for an optical fiber production take-up machine, comprising:

[0030] A rotating assembly 1 includes a drive gear 11, a first arc plate 12, and a second arc plate 13. The first arc plate 12 and the second arc plate 13 are disposed on both sides of the drive gear 11. The first arc plate 12 is provided with a first tooth groove 121 on the side closer to the drive gear 11, and the second arc plate 13 is provided with a second tooth groove 131 on the side closer to the drive gear 11. Both the first tooth groove 121 and the second tooth groove 131 mesh with the drive gear 11.

[0031] The protective component 2 includes a first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and a second arc-shaped protective cover 22. The first arc-shaped protective cover 21 is connected to the first arc-shaped plate 12, and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 is connected to the second arc-shaped plate 13.

[0032] In this invention, the rotating component 1 is driven by a drive gear 11 to rotate the first arc-shaped plate 12 and the second arc-shaped plate 13. Specifically, the first arc-shaped plate 12 and the second arc-shaped plate 13 are located on both sides of the drive gear 11, and each of the first arc-shaped plate 12 and the second arc-shaped plate 13 has a toothed groove on the side that is in contact with the drive gear 11. When the drive gear 11 rotates, it drives the first arc-shaped plate 12 and the second arc-shaped plate 13 on both sides to rotate in opposite directions. The first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 in the protective component 2 are respectively installed on the first arc-shaped plate 12 and the second arc-shaped plate 13. During the rotation of the drive gear 11, it drives the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 to rotate, causing the two protective covers to overlap or open. During use, the drive gear 11 drives the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second protective cover to close, forming a protective cover that covers the outside of the take-up reel 3. After the optical fiber breaks, the protective cover effectively restricts the tail end from pulling on the normal optical fiber on the take-up reel 3, reducing the loss of the broken fiber and lowering the cost.

[0033] Furthermore, both the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 are semi-circular arc-shaped plates, the radius of the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 is larger than the radius of the second arc-shaped protective cover 22, and the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 are concentrically arranged.

[0034] Specifically, the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 are semi-circular protective covers of different sizes, ensuring the integrity of the protection during the take-up process. When closed, the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 completely enclose the outside of the take-up reel 3, protecting the optical fiber that has been taken up internally and effectively preventing the cutting of the optical fiber tail end from damaging the normal optical fiber on the take-up reel 3. When the take-up reel 3 needs to be disassembled, the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 can be opened without interference. In fact, during the take-up process, the entire protective cover has a notch near the top to allow the optical fiber to pass through, avoiding any impact on the normal optical fiber take-up.

[0035] Furthermore, the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 is disposed perpendicular to the first arc-shaped plate 12, and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 is disposed perpendicular to the second arc-shaped plate 13. This allows the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 to form a barrel-shaped structure in the closed state, avoiding interference with the winding reel.

[0036] Furthermore, the rotating assembly 1 also includes a support plate 16 and a drive source 19, the drive source 19 being connected to the support plate 16, and the output end of the drive source 19 passing through the support plate 16 and being connected to the drive gear 11.

[0037] Specifically, the rotation of the drive gear 11 in this utility model is driven by the drive source 19. The drive source is set on the support plate 16. The output end of the drive source 19 passes through the support plate 16 and drives the drive gear 11 to rotate. The forward and reverse rotation of the drive source 19 realizes the closing and opening of the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22.

[0038] Furthermore, the surface of the support plate 16 is provided with a first arc-shaped track 14 and a second arc-shaped track 15, and the first arc-shaped plate 12 and the second arc-shaped plate 13 are slidably connected to the first arc-shaped track 14 and the second arc-shaped track 15, respectively.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the support plate 16 is provided with corresponding first arc-shaped tracks 14 and second arc-shaped tracks 15 at the positions of the first arc-shaped plate 12 and the second arc-shaped plate 13. Rollers 17 are provided on the side of the first arc-shaped plate 12 and the second arc-shaped plate 13 closest to the support plate 16, and the rollers 17 are engaged within the first arc-shaped tracks 14 and the second arc-shaped tracks 15. This provides guiding support for the movement of the first arc-shaped plate 12 and the second arc-shaped plate 13, ensuring rotational stability.

[0040] Furthermore, a telescopic cylinder 18 is provided on the top of the support plate 16, and the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 18 is connected to the support plate 16.

[0041] Specifically, the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 18 is connected to the support plate 16, driving the support to rise and fall, which in turn drives the entire protective cover device to rise and fall. In actual full-reel side unloading and take-up reel 3 loading and unloading, firstly, the two semi-circular protective covers are opened by the motor so that they overlap above the take-up reel 3. Finally, the protective covers are raised to the top by the cylinder so that the take-up reel 3 can be unloaded and loaded. After the take-up reel 3 is installed, the entire protective cover is first lowered above the take-up reel 3. Then, the motor is driven to open the two protective covers to close them downwards. Finally, the covers are moved inwards to the initial state of the protective cover.

[0042] Furthermore, the axial length of the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 is equal to the axial length of the second arc-shaped protective cover 22, ensuring the integrity of the entire protective cover structure.

[0043] Example 2

[0044] A full protective cover device for an optical fiber production take-up machine includes the full protective cover device for an optical fiber production take-up machine described in Embodiment 1, and also includes a take-up reel 3, which is disposed inside the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22.

[0045] Specifically, during operation, the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 are always placed on the outside of the take-up reel 3. When a fiber breakage occurs, the closed first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 can effectively restrain the tail end from pulling on the normal optical fiber on the take-up reel 3.

[0046] Furthermore, in order to ensure the coverage of the entire protective cover, the radii of the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 are both greater than the radius of the take-up reel 3; the axial length of the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the axial length of the second arc-shaped protective cover 22 are greater than the axial length of the take-up reel 3.

[0047] In summary, this utility model introduces a full protective cover device and equipment for an optical fiber production take-up machine. During use, the drive gear 11 drives the first arc-shaped protective cover 21 and the second protective cover to close, forming a protective cover that covers the outside of the take-up reel 3. In the event of optical fiber breakage, the protective cover effectively restrains the tail end from pulling on the normal optical fiber on the take-up reel 3, reducing damage and lowering costs. Secondly, the full protective cover device has low manufacturing cost, is simple and convenient to install, is not easily damaged, and is easy to maintain. Finally, the adoption of an automated control scheme ensures the stability of the device; it can operate stably without human intervention, freeing up manual labor.

[0048] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
