Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical fiber technology, specifically to a protection device for a detection head used in optical fiber testing. Background Technology

[0002] Optical fiber, also known as optical waveguide fiber, is a flexible pure glass fiber made of glass or plastic. It is a light transmission tool that uses the principle of total internal reflection to transmit light in these fibers. The world's first optical fiber was made by Kao Kuen, the father of optical fiber. Optical fiber is mainly composed of a core and a cladding. The core and cladding are concentric glass cylinders. The refractive index n1 of the core is slightly higher than that of the cladding n2. When light waves enter the optical fiber at a small angle from the end face, they are reflected, either partially or completely, at the interface between the core and the cladding to the other side of the interface, where they are reflected again. This repeated reflection allows the light signal to propagate forward.

[0003] In current fiber optic testing devices, the detection head, as the core component of the detector, is not only crucial but also extremely vulnerable to damage. Therefore, protecting the detection head is of paramount importance. Furthermore, the detection head is usually connected to the testing body via a cable, which presents a significant problem when transporting the fiber optic testing body: the detection head is easily damaged by dragging.

[0040] Furthermore, in this embodiment, by holding the protective part 3, the retaining ring 318 passes through the conical block 416 and gradually slides downward, thereby squeezing the trapezoidal retaining block 414, causing the trapezoidal retaining block 414 to slide back along the trajectory of the cross-shaped sliding mouth.
