Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical fiber technology, specifically to a dust removal device for optical fiber maintenance. 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] Currently, dust removal during fiber optic maintenance generally relies on manual wiping of the fiber surface with a cloth. However, this method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also inefficient. As the cloth is used for a longer period of time, dust and dirt will gradually accumulate on the part that contacts the outer wall of the fiber, resulting in a significant reduction in cleaning effectiveness.

[0037] Example 2:

[0038] Based on Embodiment 1, a preferred embodiment of the dust removal device for optical fiber maintenance provided by this utility model is as follows: Figure 1-6 As shown: The engaging part 4 includes: an arc-shaped rail 411, which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top frame 2, and the arc-shaped rail 411 is symmetrically arranged; and an arc-shaped rail 412, which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bottom frame 1, and the arc-shaped rail 412 is symmetrically arranged.

Under the transmission of the chain 320, all sprockets 319 rotate simultaneously in the same direction, thus achieving the purpose of rotating the second rotating rod 316 simultaneously. Under the action of the rotating roller 313, the limiting rod 314, and the first rotating rod 315, the dust removal cloth 318 is driven to rotate and advance, thereby achieving the purpose of replacing the dirty dust removal cloth 318 with a new one. Secondly, the bottom frame 1 and the top frame 2 are... Align the handle 414 so that the curved rod 413 slides along the trajectory of the second curved rail 412, thus allowing the curved rod 413 to slide into the interior of the first curved rail 411. When the trapezoidal locking block 416 aligns with the locking slot, the trapezoidal locking block 416 slides out and engages with the locking slot under the action of the first spring 417, thereby achieving the purpose of locking and fixing the bottom frame 1 and the top frame 2. Conversely, pressing the trapezoidal locking block 416 will cause it to no longer engage with the locking slot, and the curved rod 413 will slide back to its original position under the action of the elastic rope 415, thereby achieving the purpose of quickly disassembling the bottom frame 1 and the top frame 2.
