Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical element technology, specifically to an optical fiber splitter with an anti-tangle mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Fiber optic splitters are a crucial component of fiber optic communication systems, widely used for signal distribution and combining, particularly in fiber optic access networks and FTTH (Fiber to the Home). With the rapid development of fiber optic network construction, the demand for fiber optic splitters is gradually increasing. Traditional fiber optic splitters typically rely on optical beam splitters or couplers to distribute and receive optical signals. Existing fiber optic splitters generally lack protection at their output ports, making the fiber optic cables highly susceptible to bending and damage, thus affecting their normal function. Furthermore, during the use of fiber optic splitters, fiber optic cables often become tangled and compressed due to the surrounding environment or improper operation. This not only affects signal transmission but can also damage the fiber optic cable and reduce the equipment's lifespan. Therefore, we propose a fiber optic splitter with an anti-tangling mechanism to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an optical fiber splitter with an anti-tangle mechanism to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the lack of protection at the output port and the tangling that occurs during the use of the optical fiber splitter.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a fiber optic splitter with an anti-tangle mechanism, comprising:

[0005] The main body of the beam splitter;

[0006] The cable is connected to one end of the main body of the beam splitter, and multiple sets of cables are provided.

[0007] A protective component is fixedly installed at one end of the main body of the beam splitter. The protective component includes a protective railing, and the inner side of the protective railing has a mounting groove.

[0008] A cable straightening assembly, wherein the cable straightening assembly is disposed on the outside of the cable.

[0009] Preferably, the protection component includes a protective barrier, which is fixedly installed at one end of the splitter body and has two sets, left and right, respectively. The two sets of protective barriers are respectively set on the left and right sides of the cable. A sleeve is fixedly installed at one end of the splitter body, and the sleeve has two symmetrical sets, upper and lower. The two sets of sleeves wrap around the outside of the cable. The number of sleeves is the same as that of the cable, which plays a protective role and helps to prevent the cable from bending.

[0010] Preferably, the cable straightening assembly includes an upper clamp plate disposed at the top of the cable, a lower clamp plate disposed at the bottom of the cable, and a connecting post fixedly installed at the top of the lower clamp plate. Two sets of both the upper and lower clamp plates are provided, and four sets of connecting posts are provided. Connecting holes are formed in the gaps of the upper clamp plates, and four sets of connecting holes are also provided. The connecting posts pass through the connecting holes. A limiting sleeve is fixedly installed at the top of the upper clamp plate, and two symmetrical sets of the limiting sleeve are provided. A locking block is embedded inside the limiting sleeve. A locking groove is formed on both sides of the middle of the connecting post. One end of the locking block engages in the locking groove, and a spring is fixedly installed at the other end of the locking block. The other end of the spring is fixedly installed inside one end of the limiting sleeve. The left and right ends of the upper and lower clamp plates overlap on the overlapping groove. The limiting effect of the upper and lower clamp plates prevents each set of cables from tangling together, thus not affecting signal transmission and improving installation convenience.

[0011] Preferably, one end of the card block is fitted with a rubber sleeve, which provides wear-resistant properties to one end of the card block and helps to extend its service life.

[0012] Preferably, a connecting rod is fixedly installed at one end of the locking block, and the connecting rod passes through the middle of the spring and through one end of the limiting sleeve. A limiting plate is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting rod, which realizes the function of quick disassembly and improves the convenience of disassembly.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: This utility model;

[0014] By fixing protective railings on both sides of one end of the beam splitter body, and fixing sleeves on one end of the beam splitter body, with the sleeves having upper and lower sets, the protective railings on both sides can protect the cables during installation, while the sleeves can protect the connection between the cables and the beam splitter body from bending, which helps to reduce the risk of failure.

[0015] By setting upper and lower clamps on the top and bottom sides of the cable respectively, and with the connecting post passing through the connecting hole and the locking block engaging in the slot, the upper and lower clamps can be moved away from the main body of the splitter to straighten the cable. At the same time, each group of cables is limited to prevent the cables from getting tangled, which helps to ensure the stability of signal transmission. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the present invention provides an optical fiber splitter with an anti-tangle mechanism, comprising:

[0026] 1. Splitter body;

[0027] Cable 2 is connected to one end of the main body 1 of the splitter, and multiple sets of cable 2 are provided;

[0028] The protective component is fixedly installed at one end of the beam splitter body 1. The protective component includes a protective railing 3, which is fixedly installed at one end of the beam splitter body 1. The inner side of the protective railing 3 is provided with a mounting groove 4. The protective railing 3 is provided with two sets, left and right, which are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the cable 2. A sleeve 5 is fixedly installed at one end of the beam splitter body 1. The sleeve 5 is provided with two symmetrical sets, upper and lower. The two sets of sleeves 5 wrap around the outside of the cable 2. The number of sleeves 5 is the same as that of the cable 2. This protects the connection between the beam splitter body 1 and the cable 2, which helps to reduce the risk of failure.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] like Figures 3 to 4 As shown, based on the same concept as the above embodiment, this embodiment also proposes: a cable straightening assembly, which is disposed outside the cable 2. The cable straightening assembly includes an upper clamping plate 6, which is disposed at the top of the cable 2. A lower clamping plate 7 is disposed at the bottom of the cable 2, and a connecting post 8 is fixedly installed on the top of the lower clamping plate 7. Both the upper clamping plate 6 and the lower clamping plate 7 are provided in two sets, and the connecting post 8 is provided in four sets. A connecting hole 9 is opened in the gap of the upper clamping plate 6, and the connecting hole 9 is also provided in four sets. The connecting post 8 passes through the connecting hole 9. A limit sleeve 10 is fixedly installed on the top of the upper clamping plate 6. The limiting sleeve 10 is provided with two symmetrical sets. The limiting sleeve 10 has a locking block 11 embedded inside. The middle of the connecting column 8 has a locking groove 12 on both sides. One end of the locking block 11 is engaged in the locking groove 12. The other end of the locking block 11 is fixedly installed with a spring 13. The other end of the spring 13 is fixedly installed inside the limiting sleeve 10, so that the upper clamping plate 6 and the lower clamping plate 7 can be engaged and fixed very quickly and conveniently. The left and right ends of the upper clamping plate 6 and the lower clamping plate 7 are placed on the mounting groove 4, which provides a fulcrum for the installation of the upper clamping plate 6 and the lower clamping plate 7 and improves the convenience of installation.

[0031] One end of the locking block 11 is fitted with a rubber sleeve, which is made of natural rubber, but is generally synthetic rubber. Synthetic rubber is a rubber material manufactured by chemical synthesis and has properties similar to natural rubber. Synthetic rubber can be formulated according to different needs to obtain specific physical and chemical properties, and has the characteristics of sealing, anti-slip, wear resistance and elasticity. This design utilizes the wear resistance of rubber, which is beneficial to improving the service life of the locking block 11 and the connecting post 8.

[0032] A connecting rod 14 is fixedly installed at one end of the locking block 11. The connecting rod 14 passes through the middle of the spring 13 and through one end of the limiting sleeve 10. A limiting plate 15 is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting rod 14. By pulling the limiting plate 15 outward, the connecting rod 14 and the locking block 11 can be moved outward at the same time, so that one end of the locking block 11 is moved out of the slot 12, thereby removing the connecting post 8 from the bottom of the connecting hole 9, which improves the convenience of disassembly.

[0033] Working principle: Before using the device, first place the two ends of the two sets of lower clamping plates 7 on the top of the mounting groove 4, and place the cable 2 on the top of the lower clamping plate 7, so that each set of cable 2 is locked in the groove of the lower clamping plate 7. Then, hold the upper clamping plate 6 and place it on top of the lower clamping plate 7, so that the connecting post 8 passes through the connecting hole 9. When the upper clamping plate 6 and the lower clamping plate 7 are completely merged, the top of the connecting post 8 will first push the two side locking blocks 11 into the limiting sleeve 10. At the same time, the locking blocks 11 will squeeze the spring 13. When the connecting post 8 reaches the top, the spring 13 will release the elastic force and drive one end of the locking block 11 to lock into the locking groove 12. The two sets of locking blocks 11 can then lock the connecting post 8. After locking the four sets of connecting posts 8 in sequence, slide the upper clamping plate 6 and the lower clamping plate 7 to the appropriate position. The above is the complete working principle of this utility model.

[0034] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections. "Up", "down", "left", "right", etc. are only used to indicate relative positional relationships.

Other structures can refer to the general design. In the absence of conflict, the same embodiment and different embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0036] In conclusion, the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.
