Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of temperature-sensing optical fiber, specifically relating to a high-altitude stabilization device for temperature-sensing optical fiber fusion splicing. Background Technology
[0002] The temperature-sensing fiber optic cable within the subway section is installed via bracket A, 5 meters above the ground level of evacuation passage B, on the tunnel wall, close to the high-voltage side. Figure 4 As shown; the distance from the wall is 100mm, and the temperature-sensing fiber C is installed and fixed using a stainless steel Z-shaped bracket A. Bracket A is then fixed to the tunnel wall at a certain height using expansion bolts D. Figure 5 As shown, during subway tunnel construction, equipment installation, or maintenance, the temperature-sensing optical fiber may be accidentally damaged. If the fiber breaks, work at height is required to splice the broken section using a ladder. However, because the temperature-sensing optical fiber lacks flexibility and can only be repaired at height, the limited operating space and susceptibility to vibration make it prone to breakage during splicing, leading to splicing failure.
[0003] Therefore, a temperature-sensitive fiber optic splicing high-altitude stabilization device is needed to assist high-altitude fiber splicing operations, in order to solve the problems in the existing technology, such as ladders easily shaking during high-altitude operations, and temperature-sensitive fibers easily breaking during the splicing process, leading to splicing failure.

[0036] [First Embodiment]
[0037] like Figure 1-3 The image shows a high-altitude stabilization device for temperature-sensing fiber optic splicing provided in the first embodiment of this utility model. It includes a stabilizer 100, characterized in that an auxiliary component 200 is provided on the top of the stabilizer 100. Preferably, both sides of the auxiliary component 200 can be adhered and fixed to the top of the stabilizer 100 using adhesive tape 300. Temperature-sensing fibers are detachably connected to both sides of the opening of the stabilizer 100. By providing the stabilizer, the two sections of temperature-sensing fibers can be stably fixed to the splicing machine body, avoiding the problem of fiber breakage during splicing due to ladder shaking during high-altitude operations, thus effectively preventing splicing failure. To improve the quality and efficiency of fiber splicing, as a preferred method, the temperature-sensing optical fiber is connected to both sides of the opening 101 via Velcro 400. The Velcro allows the two sections of temperature-sensing optical fiber to be spliced to be detachably connected to the stabilizer, making installation and removal convenient and quick. Furthermore, a heat-shrink tubing is fitted around the outer periphery of one side of the temperature-sensing optical fiber. After splicing, the heat-shrink tubing is heated by the heat exchanger heater 700, causing it to wrap around the splice position of the two sections of temperature-sensing optical fiber. The Velcro 400 in this embodiment can be commercially available and is a mature technology in the field, which has been fully disclosed and therefore will not be repeated in the specification.
[0038] like Figure 1-2As shown, the stabilizer 100 in this embodiment is configured as an open rectangular structure. An opening 101 corresponding to the fusion splicer wind shield 600 is provided on one side of the stabilizer 100. The temperature-sensing optical fiber is disposed on both sides of the opening 101. In this embodiment, the opening 101 is adapted to the size of the fusion splicer wind shield 600 and the fusion splicer heater 700, so that the two ends of the opening of the stabilizer 100 can be engaged with the two sides of the fusion splicer wind shield 600 and the fusion splicer heater 700, thereby allowing the optical fiber on the stabilizer 100 to be stably fixed to the fusion splicer body 500. This facilitates, on the one hand, placing the two ends of the temperature-sensing optical fiber to be spliced on the optical fiber clamps inside the fusion splicer wind shield 600, and then splicing the two ends of the temperature-sensing optical fiber to be spliced on both sides through the fusion splicer body 500; on the other hand, it also facilitates placing the two spliced ends of the temperature-sensing optical fiber on the heater clamps on both sides of the fusion splicer heater 700, so as to facilitate the subsequent heating operation of the heat shrink tubing.
[0039] like Figure 1-2 As shown, in order to facilitate assembly and disassembly, the stabilizer 100 in this embodiment is assembled by splicing a straight rod 100A and a bent corner 100B. According to the actual assembly requirements, those skilled in the art know that other structural forms can also be used to form the stabilizer 100.
[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, the auxiliary component 200 in this embodiment is set as a closed rectangular structure. By setting the auxiliary component, the height of the stabilizer and the auxiliary component can be adjusted according to the different heights of the wind shields of different fiber melting machines. This improves the applicability, ensures the accuracy of fiber melting, and improves the efficiency of fiber melting. Specifically, this is achieved through the following structure: bending areas 201 are set on both sides of the auxiliary component 200. The bending areas 201 are set as semi-circles so that the wind shields 600 of the fiber melting machine can pass smoothly through the interior of the bending areas 201 when they open, close, and rotate. The dimensions of the bending areas 201 and the wind shields 600 of the fiber melting machine correspond and match, thereby providing a basis for adjusting the height of the stabilizer and the auxiliary component.
[0041] When the windproof cover 600 of the fiber fusion splicer cannot pass through the inside of the bending area 201 when it is opened, closed and rotated, it means that the height of the stabilizer 100 and the auxiliary component 200 is too low to meet the requirements. The temperature sensing optical fibers to be spliced on both sides may be too low to be placed smoothly on the optical fiber clamp inside the fiber fusion splicer body. Therefore, it is necessary to raise the height of the stabilizer 100 and the auxiliary component 200.
[0042] When the windproof cover 600 of the fiber fusion splicer is opened and closed, it can pass through the inside of the bending area 201 and the distance between it and the top of the bending area 201 is too large. This indicates that the height of the stabilizer 100 and the auxiliary component 200 is too high to meet the requirements. The temperature sensing optical fibers to be spliced on both sides may be too high to be placed smoothly on the optical fiber clamps inside the fiber fusion splicer body. Therefore, it is necessary to lower the height of the stabilizer 100 and the auxiliary component 200.
[0043] By incorporating auxiliary components, the height of the stabilizer and auxiliary components can be adjusted according to the different heights of the wind shields of different fiber melting machines, thereby increasing the applicability, ensuring fiber melting accuracy, and improving fiber melting efficiency.
[0044] The specific working process of this embodiment is as follows:
[0045] When splicing temperature-sensitive optical fibers, first, fix the two sections of temperature-sensitive optical fibers to be spliced together to both sides of the opening of the stabilizer 100 using Velcro 400. Place a heat-shrink tubing over one of the temperature-sensitive optical fibers. Adjust the positions of the two sections so that their closest ends contact each other. Then, open the fusion splicer's windproof cover 600 and fix the two sections of temperature-sensitive optical fibers to the fiber clamps on both sides inside the windproof cover 600. Start the fusion splicer body 500; the fusion splicer body 500 will operate, fusing the contact ends of the two sections of temperature-sensitive optical fibers together. Afterward, open the fiber clamps and remove the stabilizer 100 from the fusion splicer's windproof cover 600. The heat-sensitive optical fibers spliced together are removed. Then, one side of the heat shrink tubing is pulled towards the middle, so that the heat shrink tubing is at the splice position of the two heat-sensitive optical fibers. At this time, the two ends of the opening of the stabilizer 100 are clamped on both sides of the fusion splicer heater 700, and the two heat-sensitive optical fibers are fixed on the heater clamps on both sides of the fusion splicer heater 700. By starting the fusion splicer heater 700, the fusion splicer heater 700 heats the heat shrink tubing, so that the heat shrink tubing wraps around the splice position of the two heat-sensitive optical fibers. Then, the heater clamps are opened, and the Velcro 400 on the stabilizer is removed, so that the heat-sensitive optical fibers after splicing are separated from the stabilizer 100. Finally, the stabilizer 100 is removed from the fusion splicer.
[0046] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
