Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of optical cable winding and laying equipment, specifically an optical cable winding and laying device. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of society, optical fiber cables have enabled the transmission of optical signals, making communication more convenient. An optical fiber cable is a communication cable assembly that uses one or more optical fibers placed in a sheath as a transmission medium and can be used individually or in groups to realize the transmission of optical signals. Optical fiber cables are relatively long, and during use, it is often necessary to reel in and unleash the optical fiber cable. Among these, the reeling and unleashing device is an indispensable piece of equipment.

[0003] The specific design and structure of optical cable winding and unwinding devices may vary depending on the manufacturer and application requirements, but generally they include the following key components: a reel, a support base, and a drive motor. The reel is used to wind the optical cable and is usually made of metal or high-strength plastic. It has a certain diameter and length to accommodate a sufficient length of cable. Common types include integral reels and detachable reels, with detachable reels facilitating the installation and removal of the cable. The support base supports the reel, enabling it to rotate stably. It is generally made of robust metal materials, providing good stability and load-bearing capacity. Bearings are usually installed on the support base to reduce friction during reel rotation. The drive motor provides power for the winding and unwinding operation. Common types include AC motors and DC motors. The appropriate motor is selected based on the power of the device and the usage requirements. The motor transmits power to the reel through a transmission device.

[0004] Existing optical cable winding and unwinding devices may result in uneven cable arrangement on the reel due to mechanical transmission errors and insufficient control system precision. This can lead to issues such as cables not reaching the edge, overlapping, or uneven density. This not only affects the aesthetics of the winding and space utilization but may also cause the cables to squeeze and rub against each other during unwinding, increasing the risk of damage.

[0005] To address the above problems, a fiber optic cable take-up and lay-out device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies and address the problems of existing equipment, this utility model proposes an optical cable take-up and lay-out device.

Each end of the bidirectional lead screw has a support plate, and both support plates have threaded holes. The two ends of the bidirectional lead screw rotatably pass through the threaded holes on one support plate, and the second positioning rod passes through pre-drilled positioning holes on both support plates. An adjustment handle is located at the top of the bidirectional lead screw. Rotating the adjustment handle allows the bidirectional lead screw to rotate, causing the two support plates to move towards or away from each other within the adjustment groove. This allows the device to adapt to optical cable take-up and drop racks of different lengths, enhancing the versatility and applicability of the equipment and meeting the needs of various construction scenarios.

[0009] Preferably, a first motor bracket is provided on the side of the support plate, and a take-up and release motor is installed on the first motor bracket. A rotating rod is rotatably provided on both support plates, and a socket is provided on the rotating rod. An optical cable take-up and release frame is provided on the two sockets, and the output end of the take-up and release motor is connected to the rotating rod. The take-up and release motor drives the rotating rod to rotate, which in turn drives the socket and the optical cable take-up and release frame to rotate, completing the take-up and release operation of the optical cable. The motor provides stable power to ensure the smooth operation of the take-up and release process and improve work efficiency.

[0010] Preferably, the base is provided with an adjusting block, the adjusting block has an adjusting groove, an adjusting slider is slidably disposed in the adjusting groove, a guide frame is provided on the adjusting slider, and two guide rollers are provided on the guide frame. The upper guide roller is rotatably fixed at both ends, and the guide frame has a sliding hole. The fixing bolts are disposed on the outside of the sliding hole by fixing nuts. The two guide rollers on the guide frame can guide the optical cable, so that the optical cable maintains the correct path during the winding and unwinding process. The position of the upper guide roller can be adjusted by fixing bolts and fixing nuts, thereby adjusting the tension of the optical cable and avoiding the optical cable from becoming loose or overstretched during the winding and unwinding process.

This automatic adjustment method can adjust the position of the guide frame in real time according to the optical cable winding and unwinding, improving the automation and accuracy of winding and unwinding.

[0012] Preferably, the drive motor, the take-up and release motor, and the regulating motor are all electrically connected to an external power source. The external power source typically has a stable voltage and sufficient power supply capacity, which can provide continuous and stable power to the motor, ensuring that the motor will not experience problems such as unstable speed or abnormal operation due to power fluctuations during operation, thus ensuring the normal operation and efficiency of the optical cable take-up and release device.

[0013] The advantages of this utility model are: the transmission motor drives the transmission screw to rotate, which in turn moves the disassembly slider in the transmission groove. The hydraulic cylinder can raise or lower the receiving plate and the arc-shaped receiving frame on it, which facilitates the disassembly and installation of the optical cable take-up and drop rack. When it is necessary to replace the take-up and drop rack of different specifications or when it is full of optical cables, the operation can be completed quickly and conveniently, thus improving construction efficiency.

[0022] 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 scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-5As shown, an optical cable take-up and lay-out device includes a base 1, on which a disassembly seat 12 is provided. The disassembly seat 12 has a transmission groove 13, within which a transmission screw 14 is rotatably mounted. A first positioning rod 15 is arranged parallel to each other on both sides of the transmission screw 14. A disassembly slider 16 is provided within the transmission groove 13, and the disassembly slider 16 has a threaded hole. The transmission screw 14 rotates through the threaded hole in the disassembly slider 16, and the two first positioning rods 15 each pass through one of the disassembly sliders. The disassembly block 16 has a pre-drilled positioning hole. A No. 3 motor bracket 20 is provided on the side of the disassembly block 12. A transmission motor 21 is installed on the No. 3 motor bracket 20. A transmission gear 22 is provided at the output end of the transmission motor 21. A driven gear 23 is provided on the transmission screw 14. The transmission gear 22 and the driven gear 23 mesh and transmit power. A hydraulic cylinder 17 is provided on the disassembly block 16. A receiving plate 18 is provided at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 17. Two arc-shaped receiving brackets 19 are symmetrically arranged on the receiving plate 18.

[0024] The base 1 has an adjustment groove 2, in which a bidirectional lead screw 3 and a second positioning rod 4 are rotatably installed. Each end of the bidirectional lead screw 3 is provided with a support plate 6, and both support plates 6 are provided with threaded holes. The two ends of the bidirectional lead screw 3 are rotatably passed through the threaded holes on the support plates 6, and the second positioning rod 4 passes through the positioning holes pre-drilled on the two support plates 6. An adjustment handle 5 is provided at the top of the bidirectional lead screw 3.

[0025] During operation, in order to complete the disassembly or installation of the optical cable take-up and drop rack 10, the drive motor 21 starts running after being connected to an external power source. The drive gear 22 at its output end rotates accordingly. Since the drive gear 22 meshes with the driven gear 23, the driven gear 23 rotates under the drive of the drive gear 22, causing the drive screw 14 connected to the driven gear 23 to rotate within the drive groove 13. When the drive screw 14 rotates, the disassembly slider 16, which cooperates with the drive screw 14, moves linearly along the drive screw 14 under the guidance of the first positioning rod 15. When the disassembly slider 16 moves... Once in the appropriate position, the hydraulic cylinder 17 starts working. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 17 pushes the receiving plate 18 up or down, thereby moving the two arc-shaped receiving frames 19 on the receiving plate 18 to the appropriate height, realizing the receiving or lowering operation of the optical cable take-up and drop frame 10. At the same time, the operator rotates the adjustment handle 5 to drive the bidirectional lead screw 3 to rotate in the adjustment groove 2. The two ends of the bidirectional lead screw 3 have opposite thread directions. When the bidirectional lead screw 3 rotates, the support plates 6 at both ends will move in opposite directions or in a straight line along the second positioning rod 4 under the action of the lead screw, which facilitates the disassembly or installation of the optical cable take-up and drop frame 10.

[0026] A first motor bracket 7 is provided on the side of the support plate 6. A take-up and release motor 8 is installed on the first motor bracket 7. A rotating rod 11 is rotatably provided on both support plates 6. A socket 9 is provided on the rotating rod 11. An optical cable take-up and release frame 10 is provided on the two sockets 9. The output end of the take-up and release motor 8 is connected to the rotating rod 11.

[0027] During operation, in order to perform the winding and unwinding of the optical cable, the winding and unwinding motor 8 is started after being connected to an external power source. Its output end drives the rotating rod 11 to rotate. Since the rotating rod 11 is equipped with a socket 9, and the optical cable winding and unwinding frame 10 is installed on two sockets 9, the rotation of the rotating rod 11 will drive the optical cable winding and unwinding frame 10 to rotate synchronously, thereby realizing the winding or unwinding operation of the optical cable.

[0028] An adjusting block 25 is provided on the base 1. An adjusting groove 34 is provided on the adjusting block 25. An adjusting slider 26 is slidably arranged in the adjusting groove 34. A guide frame 27 is provided on the adjusting slider 26. Two guide rollers 31 are provided on the guide frame 27. Fixing bolts 29 are rotatably arranged at both ends of the upper guide roller 31. A sliding hole 28 is provided on the guide frame 27. The fixing bolts 29 are arranged on the outside of the sliding hole 28 by fixing nuts 30.

[0029] The adjusting block 25 has a mounting plate 35 on its side, a second motor bracket 36 on the mounting plate 35, an adjusting motor 37 on the second motor bracket 36, the output end of the adjusting motor 37 is connected to a first adjusting plate 33, the other end of the first adjusting plate 33 is hinged to a second adjusting plate 32, and the other end of the second adjusting plate 32 is hinged to the adjusting slider 26; the drive motor 21, the receiver / discharge motor 8 and the adjusting motor 37 are all electrically connected to an external power source.

[0030] During operation, in order to guide the optical cable during the winding and unwinding process, the regulating motor 37 starts to run after being connected to an external power source. Its output end drives the first regulating plate 33 to rotate. The first regulating plate 33 is hinged to the second regulating plate 32. The rotation of the first regulating plate 33 is converted into the linear sliding of the regulating slider 26 in the regulating groove 34 through the second regulating plate 32. The sliding of the regulating slider 26 drives the guide frame 27 to move, thereby changing the position of the two guide rollers 31 on the guide frame 27. At the same time, by adjusting the position of the fixing bolts 29 at both ends of the upper guide roller 31 in the sliding hole 28 and fixing them with the fixing nut 30, the distance between the two guide rollers 31 can be adjusted to achieve the guidance and tension adjustment of the optical cable, ensuring that the optical cable maintains a suitable state during the winding and unwinding process.

[0031] Working principle: To complete the disassembly or installation of the optical cable take-up and drop rack 10, the drive motor 21 starts running after being connected to an external power source. The drive gear 22 at its output end rotates accordingly. Since the drive gear 22 meshes with the driven gear 23, the driven gear 23 rotates under the drive of the drive gear 22, causing the drive screw 14 connected to the driven gear 23 to rotate within the drive groove 13. When the drive screw 14 rotates, the disassembly slider 16, which cooperates with the drive screw 14, moves linearly along the drive screw 14 under the guidance of the first positioning rod 15. When the disassembly slider 16 moves... Once in the appropriate position, the hydraulic cylinder 17 starts working. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 17 pushes the receiving plate 18 up or down, thereby moving the two arc-shaped receiving frames 19 on the receiving plate 18 to the appropriate height, realizing the receiving or lowering operation of the optical cable take-up and drop frame 10. At the same time, the operator rotates the adjustment handle 5 to drive the bidirectional lead screw 3 to rotate in the adjustment groove 2. The two ends of the bidirectional lead screw 3 have opposite thread directions. When the bidirectional lead screw 3 rotates, the support plates 6 at both ends will move in opposite directions or in a straight line along the second positioning rod 4 under the action of the lead screw, which facilitates the disassembly or installation of the optical cable take-up and drop frame 10.

[0032] In order to perform the winding and unwinding of optical cables, the winding and unwinding motor 8 is started after being connected to an external power source. Its output end drives the rotating rod 11 to rotate. Since the rotating rod 11 is equipped with a socket 9, and the optical cable winding and unwinding frame 10 is installed on two sockets 9, the rotation of the rotating rod 11 will drive the optical cable winding and unwinding frame 10 to rotate synchronously, thereby realizing the winding or unwinding operation of the optical cable.

[0033] To guide the optical cable during deployment and take-up, the regulating motor 37 starts operating after being connected to an external power source. Its output drives the first regulating plate 33 to rotate. The first regulating plate 33 is hinged to the second regulating plate 32. The rotation of the first regulating plate 33 is converted into the linear sliding of the regulating slider 26 in the regulating groove 34 through the second regulating plate 32. The sliding of the regulating slider 26 drives the guide frame 27 to move, thereby changing the position of the two guide rollers 31 on the guide frame 27. At the same time, by adjusting the position of the fixing bolts 29 at both ends of the upper guide roller 31 in the sliding hole 28 and fixing them with fixing nuts 30, the distance between the two guide rollers 31 can be adjusted to achieve the guidance and tension adjustment of the optical cable, ensuring that the optical cable maintains a suitable state during deployment and take-up.
