[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] Example:
[0027] Reference Figure 1-7 A connection device for a quick air-blown optical cable converter includes a limiting frame 43, which is symmetrically arranged. There are two limiting frames 43 in the device, and they are symmetrically designed. Fixing rings 1 are fixedly connected to both sides of the limiting frame 43, and the limiting frame 43 is fixed by the fixing rings 1 on both sides. The inner side of the fixing ring 1 on one side of the middle section has evenly distributed slots 11. The two sides of the fixing ring 1 are fixedly connected to opposite limiting blocks 12, and the limiting blocks 12 are fixed by the fixing ring 1. The outer side of the fixing ring 1 on the other side of the middle section is provided with a snap-fit connection component. The snap-fit end of the snap-fit connection component is connected to the slot 11. An airbag clamping component is provided inside the limiting frame 43. The air inlet end of the airbag clamping component is provided with a connecting pipe 4, and an inflation component is provided outside the connecting pipe 4.
[0028] The engaging connection assembly includes a support plate 2, which is fixedly connected to a fixing ring 1 on the other side of the middle section. The fixing ring 1 on the other side of the middle section supports and fixes the support plate 2. A limiting seat 21 is fixedly connected to the outside of the support plate 2, supporting and fixing the limiting seat 21. The limiting seat 21 is fixedly connected to the fixing ring 1, fixing the limiting seat 21. A handle 22 is rotatably connected to the outside of the limiting seat 21, limiting one end of the handle 22. A transmission frame 23 is fixedly connected to the outside of the handle 22, fixing the transmission frame 23. An engaging block 25 is fixedly connected to the outside of the transmission frame 23, engaging the components. Block 25 is fixed and engages with slot 11. By engaging with slot 11, the limiting frames 43 on both sides are connected. Block 25 is also engaged with limiting block 12. Limiting block 12 limits block 25, so that the limiting frames 43 on both sides can only be connected at a specific angle. A spring 24 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the middle section of handle 22. The other end of spring 24 is fixedly connected to support plate 2. Spring 24 pushes handle 22 outward with support plate 2 as stress point to rotate it. Thus, handle 22 drives the engaging block 25 to move inward through transmission frame 23, thereby engaging with slot 11.
[0029] The airbag clamping assembly includes an airbag 41, which is fixedly connected to a connecting tube 4. The airbag 41 is fixedly fixed through the connecting tube 4. The airbag 41 is fixedly connected to a limiting frame 43. The airbag 41 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one side of the limiting frame 43, thereby fixing the position of the fixing plate 42. The fixing plates 42 are evenly distributed and fixedly connected to the inner side of the airbag 41. The fixing plates 42 are fixed through the airbag 41. The fixing plates 42 are slidably connected to the limiting frame 43, and the limiting frame 43 limits the position of the fixing plates 42.
[0030] The inflation assembly includes an air cylinder 3, which is fixedly connected to a connecting pipe 4 to secure the connecting pipe 4. The air cylinder 3 is also fixedly connected to a limiting frame 43 to secure the air cylinder 3. A lead screw 31 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the air cylinder 3, limiting its movement. A threaded sleeve 32 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the lead screw 31, allowing the threaded sleeve 32 to move as the lead screw 31 rotates. Rubber layers are provided on the outer wall of the lead screw 31 and the inner wall of the threaded sleeve 32 to increase its pressure. The damping force between the lead screw 31 and the threaded sleeve 32 increases the stability between them. A piston 33 is fixedly connected to the outside of the threaded sleeve 32. The piston 33 is fixed by the threaded sleeve 32. The piston 33 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the air cylinder 3. The air cylinder 3 limits the piston 33, so that the piston 33 can only move laterally inside the air cylinder 3 and cannot rotate. One end of the air cylinder 3 has a corresponding air inlet 34, which connects the two sides of the inner side of the air cylinder 3.
[0031] A slot 51 is provided on the inner side of the fixing ring 1 near the limiting block 12.
[0032] A plug tube 5 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the fixing ring 1 near the support plate 2. The plug tube 5 engages with the slot 51, and the limiting frame 43 on both sides is connected through the plug tube 5 and the slot 51.
[0033] Specifically, when using the connection device of this air-blown optical cable quick converter: First, place the air-blown optical cable and the standard optical cable simultaneously inside the limiting frame 43. Then, rotate the lead screw 31, which drives the threaded sleeve 32 and piston 33 to move simultaneously towards the connecting pipe 4. This forces the air inside the air cylinder 3 into the air bag 41 through the connecting pipe 4, thereby squeezing the fixing plate 42 inward through the air bag 41 to clamp and fix the optical cable. Then, press the handle 22 towards the limiting frame 43 simultaneously. The limiting seat 21 serves as a fulcrum to drive the transmission frame 23 and the locking block 25 to move outward. Then, the plug-in tube 5 on the outside of one limiting frame 43 is inserted into the slot 51 on the other side. After that, the handle 22 is released, and the spring 24 pushes the handle 22 outward with the support plate 2 as the stress point. Thus, the handle 22 drives the transmission frame 23 and the locking block 25 to move inward with the limiting seat 21 as the stress point, and the locking block 25 engages with the slot 11 and the limiting block 12, thus completing the connection of the optical cable inside the limiting frames 43 on both sides.
[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
