[0002] In the field of fiber optic communication, the installation and maintenance of optical fibers is a critical task. However, during fiber optic slicing operations, due to the special properties of the fiber material, it is prone to shaking, which not only poses safety hazards to operators but may also damage the fiber and affect communication quality.

[0003] Currently, fiber optic cleaving operations are typically performed using handheld tools, requiring operators to carefully control the fiber to avoid swaying during the cut. However, in practice, due to the flexibility of the fiber and the characteristics of the cleaving tool, it is difficult to completely avoid swaying. Furthermore, existing anti-sway devices are mostly complex in structure, inconvenient to operate, and offer poor protection. Therefore, researching an online fiber optic cleaving anti-sway device that is simple in structure, easy to operate, and provides significant anti-sway effects has important practical significance and application value. Thus, it is necessary to provide an online fiber optic cleaving anti-sway device to solve the aforementioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an online fiber optic severance device to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that, since the fiber optic cable is made of a soft material, it is very easy for it to swing after being cut if it is not clamped in time, which will greatly reduce the quality of the fiber optic cable. This utility model provides a solution that is significantly different from the existing technology, addressing the problem that the existing technology solutions are too simplistic.

A spring is provided inside the first telescopic rod.

[0008] In a further embodiment, the system also includes a slide rod, a support plate, a first steel pipe, and a second steel pipe.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. This utility model utilizes a servo motor to drive the movement of the lead screw and slider, achieving automated operation.

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

[0024] Please refer to the following carefully. Figure 1-2 and Figure 4-5 This utility model provides an embodiment of an online fiber optic segment cutting and anti-slip device, including a pressing mechanism 5 and a clamping and cutting unit 12. The pressing mechanism 5 includes a movable block 501, a first telescopic rod 502 and a protrusion 503. The protrusion 503 extends to the front and rear sides of the movable block 501, and the rear extension dimension of the protrusion 503 is greater than the front extension dimension. The telescopic end of the first telescopic rod 502 is connected to the movable block 501, and a spring is provided on the inner side of the first telescopic rod 502. The device also includes a worktable 1, a lead screw 2 and a slider 4. The lead screw 2 is movably connected to the inner wall of the groove of the worktable 1, and the outer side of the lead screw 2 is threadedly connected to a slider 4 that can slide along the inner wall of the groove of the worktable 1. The inner side of the slider 4 is also connected to a light rod 3 that is parallel to the lead screw 2, and one side of the slider 4 is connected to one end of the first telescopic rod 502. A spring is provided inside the first telescopic rod 502.

[0025] First, the servo motor on one side of the worktable 1 drives the lead screw 2 to rotate, causing the slider 4, movable block 501, first telescopic rod 502 and protrusion 503 to move to one side with the cooperation of the light rod 3. When the protrusion 503 moves above the first telescopic oil tank 6, it will squeeze the first telescopic oil tank 6.

[0026] Please refer to the following carefully. Figure 1-2 and Figure 4-5The clamping and cutting unit 12 includes a second telescopic rod 1201, a cutter 1202, a cutter holder 1203, and a clamping plate 1204. The ends of the two sets of second telescopic rods 1201 are respectively equipped with cutters 1202 and cutter holders 1203, and the cutters 1202 and cutter holders 1203 are arranged in a concave-convex fit. Clamping plates 1204 are respectively provided on one side of the cutter 1202 and cutter holder 1203 to clamp the optical fiber during the cutting process and prevent it from being thrown. First steel pipes 10 are connected through both sides of the support plate 9, and second steel pipes 11 are arranged parallel to one side of the first steel pipes 10 via a horizontal plate. The first steel pipes 10 and the second steel pipes 11... The two components are interconnected by oil pipes, and the end of the second steel pipe 11 is connected to the second telescopic rod 1201 through a vertical plate. The second telescopic rod 1201 is connected to the first telescopic oil tank 6 through oil pipes, the first steel pipe 10 and the second steel pipe 11. The system also includes the first telescopic oil tank 6 and the second telescopic oil tank 7. The first telescopic oil tank 6 and the second telescopic oil tank 7 are connected to the inner wall of the groove of the workbench 1 through the oil pipes. The first telescopic oil tank 6 is symmetrically arranged about the vertical center line of one side of the workbench 1. The system also includes a slide rod 8, a support plate 9, the first steel pipe 10 and the second steel pipe 11. The slide rod 8 is slidably inserted into the upper end of the slider 4, and the support plate 9 is installed on the upper end of the slide rod 8.

[0027] When the oil inside the first telescopic oil tank 6 is squeezed through the oil pipe, the first steel pipe 10, and the second steel pipe 11 to the inside of the second telescopic rod 1201, the two symmetrically distributed second telescopic rods 1201 respectively drive the corresponding cutter 1202 and cutter holder 1203 to move towards the optical fiber wound on the line. When the cutter 1202 and cutter holder 1203 move, they can also drive the corresponding clamping plate 1204 on one side to move towards the optical fiber at the same time. Since the end faces of the cutter 1202 and cutter holder 1203 are flush with the clamping plate 1204, when the two clamping plates 1204 clamp the optical fiber, the cutter 1202 and cutter holder 1203 cut the optical fiber. This structure effectively avoids the problem of the optical fiber swinging after being cut, ensuring the quality of the optical fiber on the one hand, and preventing the optical fiber from swinging and injuring the staff on the other hand.

[0028] Please pay close attention. Figure 1 , Figure 3-4 and Figure 6 It also includes a guide plate 13 and a third telescopic rod 14. The guide plate 13 is used to guide and avoid the cutting unit 12 during the movement process, and is symmetrically installed above the workbench 1. The third telescopic rod 14 is installed on one side above the workbench 1 through a plate, and the telescopic end of the third telescopic rod 14 is connected to the optical fiber clamping and rotating mechanism for clamping and winding the cut optical fiber. The third telescopic rod 14 is connected to the second telescopic oil tank 7 through an oil pipe.

[0029] After the optical fiber is cut and clamped, the slider 4 continues to move the movable block 501, the first telescopic rod 502, and the protrusion 503. At this time, the height of the support plate 9 is lower than the height of the guide plate 13, and the slide rod 8 at the bottom of the support plate 9 and the slider 4 form a lifting and sliding structure. When the support plate 9 passes above the guide plate 13, it will move upward in coordination with the slide rod 8. Therefore, it can effectively enable the first steel pipe 10, the second steel pipe 11, and the clamping and cutting unit 12 to move the cut end of the optical fiber. When it moves to the other side of the optical fiber clamping and winding mechanism, it can effectively avoid the high part of the optical fiber clamping and winding mechanism, and also make the cut optical fiber just placed in the clamping part of the optical fiber clamping and winding mechanism. Since the rearward extension of the protrusion 503 is relatively long, when the front end of the protrusion 503 When the fiber moves to the second telescopic oil tank 7, the protrusion 503 continues to clamp the optical fiber. At this time, the oil in the second telescopic oil tank 7 is also squeezed into the inner side of the third telescopic rod 14 through the oil pipe. This causes the third telescopic rod 14 to drive the clamping and winding mechanism to clamp and rotate the optical fiber. The clamping and winding mechanism here is existing technology. For details, please refer to the authorization number: CN209466635U. Therefore, it will not be described in detail here. The above structure mainly realizes the delivery of the cut optical fiber end to the clamping and winding mechanism, so that the online cutting and clamping and winding of the optical fiber can be carried out continuously without stopping the machine. This not only improves the efficiency of automated optical fiber processing, but also reduces manual labor and further avoids the hidden dangers of the optical fiber swinging and loosening after cutting.

[0030] Working principle: When an online optical fiber is cut, such as... Figure 1-2 and Figure 4-5 As shown, the servo motor on one side of the worktable 1 drives the lead screw 2 to rotate, causing the slider 4, movable block 501, first telescopic rod 502, and protrusion 503 to move to one side with the cooperation of the guide rod 3. When the protrusion 503 moves above the first telescopic oil tank 6, it will squeeze the first telescopic oil tank 6, causing the oil inside the first telescopic oil tank 6 to be squeezed through the oil pipe, the first steel pipe 10, and the second steel pipe 11 to the inside of the second telescopic rod 1201. This causes the two symmetrically distributed second telescopic rods 1201 to drive the corresponding cutter 1202 and cutter holder 1203 to move towards the optical fiber wound on the wire. When the cutter 1202 and cutter holder 1203 move, they can also drive the corresponding clamping plate 1204 on one side to move towards the optical fiber at the same time. Figure 5 As shown, since the end faces of the cutter 1202 and the cutter holder 1203 are flush with the clamping plate 1204, when the two clamping plates 1204 clamp the optical fiber, the cutter 1202 and the cutter holder 1203 will cut the optical fiber. This structure effectively avoids the problem of the optical fiber swinging after being cut, ensuring the quality of the optical fiber on the one hand, and preventing the optical fiber from swinging and injuring the staff on the other hand.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 3-4 and Figure 6 As shown, after the optical fiber is cut and clamped, the slider 4 continues to move the movable block 501, the first telescopic rod 502, and the protrusion 503. At this time, the height of the support plate 9 is lower than the height of the guide plate 13, and the slide rod 8 at the bottom of the support plate 9 and the slider 4 form a lifting and sliding structure. When the support plate 9 passes above the guide plate 13, it will move upward in coordination with the slide rod 8. Therefore, it can effectively enable the first steel pipe 10, the second steel pipe 11, and the clamping and cutting unit 12 to move the cut end of the optical fiber. When it moves to the other side of the optical fiber clamping and winding mechanism, it can effectively avoid the high part of the optical fiber clamping and winding mechanism, and also make the cut optical fiber just placed in the clamping part of the optical fiber clamping and winding mechanism. Since the protrusion 503 extends backward in a long dimension, when the protrusion 503 When the front end moves to the second telescopic oil tank 7, the protrusion 503 continues to clamp the optical fiber. At this time, the oil in the second telescopic oil tank 7 is also squeezed into the inner side of the third telescopic rod 14 through the oil pipe, so that the third telescopic rod 14 drives the clamping and winding mechanism to clamp and rotate the optical fiber. The clamping and winding mechanism here is existing technology. For details, please refer to the authorization number: CN209466635U. Therefore, it will not be described in detail here. The above structure mainly realizes the delivery of the cut optical fiber end to the clamping and winding mechanism, so that the online cutting and clamping and winding of the optical fiber can be carried out continuously without stopping the machine. This not only improves the efficiency of automated optical fiber processing, but also reduces manual labor and further avoids the hidden dangers of the optical fiber swinging and loosening after cutting.

[0032] like Figure 6 As shown, after the extrusion mechanism 5 moves away from the second telescopic oil tank 7, the extrusion mechanism 5 and the clamping and cutting unit 12 need to be reset. At this time, the operator only needs to control the servo motor to drive the lead screw 2 to reverse, so that the extrusion mechanism 5 and the clamping and cutting unit 12 move back. In order to prevent the moving protrusion 503 from extruding the first telescopic oil tank 6 and the second telescopic oil tank 7, when the arc on one side of the protrusion 503 is convenient to abut against the arc edge on one side of the second telescopic oil tank 7, the spring force inside the second telescopic oil tank 7 and the first telescopic oil tank 6 is greater than the spring force inside the first telescopic rod 502. Therefore, regardless of the first telescopic oil tank 503, the extrusion mechanism 5 and the clamping and cutting unit 12 can be reset. Both the second telescopic oil tank 7 and the first telescopic oil tank 6 can press and flip the movable block 501 with the protrusion 503 in conjunction with the first telescopic rod 502. After flipping, although the protrusion 503 is still in contact with the second telescopic oil tank 7 and the first telescopic oil tank 6, it is not enough to press them because the force point is the spring inside the first telescopic rod 502. This effectively resets the pressing mechanism 5 and the clamping and cutting unit 12. During the reset process, it avoids the second telescopic oil tank 7 and the first telescopic oil tank 6, thus facilitating the next operation of the pressing mechanism 5 and the clamping and cutting unit 12.
