Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical cable production technology, specifically a drying device for optical cable production. Background Technology

[0002] During the optical cable manufacturing process, a sheath extruder melts plastic and wraps it around the fiber core to form a cladding. This cladding is then cooled in a cooling tank to achieve a stable shape. After cooling, the cladding is coated with coolant, which is typically removed from the optical cable using a drying device.

[0003] According to a public notice (Announcement No.: CN216869068U) of a drying device for optical cable production, under the action of springs, two pairs of upper and lower pressure rollers can press the two ends of the optical cable respectively and avoid damage to the optical cable. The blower can dry the surface of the optical cable and effectively straighten and remove water from the optical cable.

[0004] However, in actual use, the surface of the optical cable has coolant, and the different distribution of coolant on the surface of the optical cable leads to different heating times inside the machine, affecting the heating efficiency. In view of this, we propose a drying device for optical cable production. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a drying device for optical cable production to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a drying device for optical cable production, comprising a machine body, a heating device fixed on the upper surface of the machine body, guide rollers provided on the side wall of the machine body, a dehydration mechanism provided inside the machine body, and a promoting mechanism provided inside the machine body, including:

[0007] The motor is fixedly installed on the side wall of the machine body. The output end of the motor is fixedly connected to the transmission rod. A collection box is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the machine body. A water flow channel is opened on the inner wall of the collection box. A guide tube is fixedly installed at the lower end of the collection box. A fixing block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the collection box. A return spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixing block. A limiting plate is fixedly connected to the end of the return spring away from the fixing block.

[0008] A cleaning ring is provided, wherein a movable rod is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the limiting plate, and a cleaning ring is fixedly installed on one end of the movable rod near the limiting plate, and a guide groove is provided on the inner wall of the cleaning ring.

[0009] Preferably, the promoting mechanism includes a squeezing rod, which is fixedly installed on the surface of the cleaning ring, a fixed shaft is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the collection box, a swing plate is movably installed on the arc surface of the fixed shaft, and a contact ball is fixedly installed on the surface of the swing plate.

[0010] Preferably, the inside of the collection box is provided with a rotating groove, the shape of which is adapted to the shape of the swing plate, and the end of the squeezing rod is arc-shaped, so that the squeezing rod can squeeze the contact ball, and the swing plate can move inside the rotating groove.

[0011] Preferably, the transmission rod is fixedly mounted with a compression ball, and the end of the movable rod away from the cleaning ring is arc-shaped. The position of the compression ball is adapted to the position of the movable rod so that the movable rod can compress the compression ball.

[0012] Preferably, the surface of the fixed block is provided with a movable hole, the diameter of which is adapted to the diameter of the movable rod, the movable rod passes through the fixed block, and the movable rod can move on the surface of the fixed block.

[0013] Preferably, the weight of the end of the swing plate away from the contact ball is greater than that of the end of the swing plate closer to the contact ball, and the swing plate tilts towards the end away from the contact ball when at rest.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a drying device for optical cable production, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This optical cable drying device is equipped with a water removal mechanism. When the optical cable enters the machine body, the motor starts and drives the transmission rod to rotate. The extrusion ball squeezes the movable rod, causing the movable rod to move the cleaning ring to remove moisture from the surface of the optical cable. The return spring deforms, and then the extrusion ball moves, and the return spring returns to its original position. The moisture in the optical cable is cleaned and flows into the water tank along the guide groove and is discharged from the guide pipe. The continuous movement of the cleaning ring shakes off the moisture and cleans the moisture along the guide groove along the surface of the optical cable, thereby reducing the surface moisture of the optical cable and reducing the drying time.

[0016] 2. The drying device for optical cable production is equipped with a promoting mechanism. During the movement of the cleaning ring, the extrusion rod squeezes the contact ball, causing the swing plate to rotate along the fixed axis. The extrusion rod contacts and squeezes the ball, and the heavier end of the swing plate falls down and knocks on the inside of the collection box, promoting the aggregation and discharge of water adhering to the inner wall of the collection box. This improves the water removal efficiency and reduces the drying time of the optical cable. Attached Figure Description

[0022] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a drying device for optical cable production, including a body 1, a heating device 2 fixed on the upper surface of the body 1, a guide roller 5 provided on the side wall of the body 1, a dewatering mechanism 3 provided inside the body 1, and a promoting mechanism 4 provided inside the body 1, including a motor 301, a transmission rod 302, a collection box 303, a guide tube 304, a fixing block 305, a reset spring 306, a movable rod 307, a limiting plate 308, a cleaning ring 309, a guide groove 310, and a water flow groove 311.

[0023] In one embodiment of this utility model, a motor 301 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the machine body 1, and the output end of the motor 301 is fixedly connected to a transmission rod 302. A collection box 303 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the machine body 1. A water flow channel 311 is provided on the inner wall of the collection box 303. A guide tube 304 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the collection box 303. A fixing block 305 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the collection box 303. A reset spring 306 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixing block 305. A limiting plate 308 is fixedly connected to the end of the reset spring 306 away from the fixing block 305. A movable rod 307 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the limiting plate 308. A cleaning ring 309 is fixedly installed on the end of the movable rod 307 near the limiting plate 308. A guide groove 310 is provided on the inner wall of the cleaning ring 309.

[0024] Additionally, the promoting mechanism 4 includes a squeezing rod 401, which is fixedly installed on the surface of the cleaning ring 309. A fixed shaft 403 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the collection box 303. A swing plate 402 is movably installed on the arc surface of the fixed shaft 403. A contact ball 404 is fixedly installed on the surface of the swing plate 402. A rotating groove is provided inside the collection box 303. The shape of the rotating groove is adapted to the shape of the swing plate 402. The end of the squeezing rod 401 is arc-shaped, so that the squeezing rod 401 can squeeze the contact ball 404. The swing plate 402 can move inside the rotating groove.

[0025] In this embodiment of the utility model, two sets of motors 301 are provided. The two sets of motors 301 are used to ensure the stable movement of the cleaning ring 309. The transmission rod 302 is fixedly installed with the extrusion ball. The end of the movable rod 307 away from the cleaning ring 309 is arc-shaped. The position of the extrusion ball is adapted to the position of the movable rod 307 so that the movable rod 307 can extrude the extrusion ball. The surface of the fixed block 305 is provided with a movable hole. The diameter of the movable hole is adapted to the diameter of the movable rod 307. The movable rod 307 passes through the fixed block 305 and can move on the surface of the fixed block 305. The weight of the end of the swing plate 402 away from the contact ball 404 is greater than that of the end of the swing plate 402 close to the contact ball 404. In the static state, the swing plate 402 tilts towards the end away from the contact ball 404. A winding device is provided on the outside of the machine body 1 to guide and wind up the optical cable.

[0026] In this invention, during use, the optical cable enters the machine body 1 and is guided along the guide roller 5. The motor 301 starts and drives the transmission rod 302 to rotate. The extrusion ball extrudes the movable rod 307, causing the movable rod 307 to move the cleaning ring 309 to remove moisture from the surface of the optical cable. The return spring 306 deforms, and then the extrusion ball moves, and the return spring 306 returns to its original position, thus cleaning the moisture from the optical cable. The moisture flows into the water tank 311 along the guide groove 310 and is discharged from the guide pipe 304. The continuous movement of the cleaning ring 309 shakes off the moisture and, at the same time, cleans the moisture along the guide groove 310 along the surface of the optical cable, reducing the surface moisture of the optical cable and shortening the drying time.

[0027] Furthermore, during the movement of the cleaning ring 309, the squeezing rod 401 squeezes the contact ball 404, causing the swing plate 402 to rotate along the fixed shaft 403. The squeezing rod 401 makes contact and squeezes, and the heavier end of the swing plate 402 falls down and knocks on the inside of the collection box 303, promoting the aggregation and discharge of water adhering to the inner wall of the collection box 303, improving the water removal efficiency and reducing the drying of the optical cable.

[0028] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
