[0040] Reference Figures 1 to 12As shown, the mounting equipment of the embodiment of the utility model is applied to the mounting of isolator 200 and fiber array 100, comprising clamping seat 510, positioning component and microscope platform 400.

[0041] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 , wherein, clamping seat 510 has positioning groove 512 with opening upwards, positioning groove 512 is set open towards back, the upper end of clamping seat 510 is equipped with baffle 540, the rear end part of baffle 540 closes the upper end opening of positioning groove 512 to jointly define clamping station 511 for accommodating fiber array 100, that is, make the lower wall of baffle 540 and the wall of positioning groove 512 circumference jointly define clamping station 511. The width of positioning groove 512 along left and right directions is adapted to the width of fiber array 100 along left and right directions, so as to realize the alignment and positioning of fiber array 100 and positioning groove 512. The upper end of clamping seat 510 is connected with limiting plate 550, and limiting plate 550 partially closes the upper end opening of positioning groove 512.

[0042] Referring to Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 , in use, the user can place fiber array 100 into positioning groove 512, make the fiber center 110 of fiber array 100 set up upwards, and make the left end face of fiber array 100 abut against the left wall of positioning groove 512 and the right end face of fiber array 100 abut against the right wall of positioning groove 512, by applying pressure to fiber array 100 from back to front, so that the front end face of fiber array 100 abuts against the front wall of positioning groove 512, by applying pressure to fiber array 100 from below to above, so that the upper end face of fiber array 100 abuts against the lower wall of baffle 540, to realize the preliminary positioning of fiber array 100 and clamping station 511, then the user can fix fiber array 100 in positioning groove 512 through positioning component, thereby realizing the relative fixation of fiber array 100 and clamping seat 510.

[0043] Referring to Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the mounting equipment cooperates positioning groove 512, baffle 540 and positioning component to improve the positioning accuracy of fiber array 100, and further improve the accuracy of image acquisition of microscope platform 400.

[0044] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the microscope platform 400 can obtain a marking image of the mounting end face 120 of the fiber array 100 located in the positioning groove 512 through the upper opening of the positioning groove 512. Based on the marking image, the calibration center 370 corresponding to the fiber center 110 of the fiber array 100 and the mounting area of ​​the isolator 200 relative to the calibration center 370 can be marked on the microscope platform 400.

[0045] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, the mounting equipment can connect a limiting plate 550 to the clamp 510 according to the relative positional relationship between the mounting area and the calibration center 370. This allows the limiting plate 550 to partially close the upper opening of the positioning groove 512. The edge of the limiting plate 550 near the fiber center 110 can provide physical positioning guidance for the mounting of the isolator 200. In the subsequent mounting process, the user can fix the fiber array 100 to be mounted on the clamp 510 and adjust the relative position between the clamp 510 and the microscope platform 400 to align the magnified fiber center 110 of the fiber array 100 with the calibration center 370. The user then mounts the isolator 200 onto the mounting end face 120 of the fiber array 100, ensuring that one side boundary of the isolator 200 abuts against the edge of the limiting plate 550 near the fiber center 110. This achieves the positioning of the isolator 200 in one axial direction. Finally, the isolator 200 is placed into the mounting area to align the isolator 200 with the fiber center 110.

[0046] Some mounting processes utilize slots or holes in the substrate for guidance, assisting in the mounting of the isolator 200 and the fiber array 100. However, due to limitations in machining precision, this slot or hole-guided mounting method is unsuitable for smaller isolators 200 (e.g., approximately 0.5mm in length, width, and height) and requires higher mounting precision (±0.05mm). The mounting equipment provided in this embodiment amplifies and marks the acquired actual mounting data to obtain accurate guidance data. This guidance data then assists subsequent mounting processes, thereby improving the mounting precision of the isolator 200 and the fiber array 100.

[0047] This mounting equipment can be used to achieve precise integration of multi-channel optical isolators 200 and fiber arrays 100, that is, to complete the mounting of multiple isolators 200 with multiple fiber centers 110 on the same fiber array 100, so as to promote the localization of 400G and 800G high-speed optical communication modules.

[0048] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 8As shown, it can be understood that the rear end portion of the baffle 540 closes the upper opening of the positioning groove 512 to jointly define the clamping station 511 for housing the fiber array 100. After the fiber array 100 is placed into the positioning groove 512, the upper end surface of the fiber array 100 abuts against the lower wall surface of the baffle 540, thereby enabling the fiber array 100 to be positioned in the vertical direction, which improves the accuracy of the microscope platform 400 in acquiring the marked image and is beneficial to improving the accuracy of the subsequent installation of the isolator 200 and the fiber array 100.

[0049] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the limiting plate 550 is connected to the upper end of the baffle 540, and the rear end of the limiting plate 550 closes the upper opening of the positioning groove 512. At the upper opening of the positioning groove 512, the rear end of the limiting plate 550 is located behind the rear end of the baffle 540. After obtaining the relative relationship between the mounting area and the calibration center 370 from the marked image, the user can fix the limiting plate 550 above the baffle 540. In order to ensure the positioning function of the limiting plate 550 for the isolator 200, the rear end of the limiting plate 550 can be set behind the rear end of the baffle 540. The user mounts the isolator 200 on the mounting end face 120 of the fiber array 100, and makes one side boundary of the isolator 200 abut against the edge of the limiting plate 550 near the fiber center 110, thereby achieving the positioning of the isolator 200 in one axis.

[0050] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, it can be understood that the positioning component includes a fixing block 520 and a first threaded component 530. The fixing block 520 is fixed to the clamp 510. The fixing block 520 is provided with a through first threaded hole opposite to the positioning groove 512. The first threaded component 530 is threadedly connected to the first threaded hole, so that the first threaded component 530 can move closer to or further away from the positioning groove 512.

[0051] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the fixing block 520 includes a first sub-block and a second sub-block connected to each other. The two ends of the first sub-block are arranged in a front-to-back direction. The front end of the first sub-block is fixedly connected to the rear end of the clamp 510. The two ends of the second sub-block are arranged in a left-to-right direction. The left end of the second sub-block is fixedly connected to the rear end of the first sub-block. The right end of the second sub-block is provided with a first screw hole opposite to the positioning groove 512.

[0052] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the user can rotate the first threaded part 530 to move the first threaded part 530 away from the positioning groove 512, thereby increasing the distance between the positioning component and the positioning groove 512, so as to place the fiber array 100 into the positioning groove 512 and adjust the position of the fiber array 100 to achieve the positioning of the fiber array 100 and the clamping station 511.

[0053] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, after the fiber array 100 and the clamping station 511 are positioned, the user can rotate the first threaded part 530 so that the first threaded part 530 is close to the positioning groove 512 and abuts against the rear end face of the fiber array 100, thereby achieving relative fixation between the fiber array 100 and the clamp 510.

[0054] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, it can be understood that the clamp 510 is inclined from bottom to top and from back to front, so that the positioning groove 512 is also inclined from bottom to top and from back to front, in order to compensate for the surface slope of the fiber array 100 at the mounting end face 120. When the user positions and fixes the fiber array 100 in the clamping station 511, the inclined setting of the positioning groove 512 makes the mounting end face 120 horizontal, which facilitates the mounting of the isolator 200 on the mounting end face 120 and allows for more accurate adjustment of the position of the isolator 200. This helps to eliminate the defect that the isolator 200 is not easy to position due to the inclination of the mounting end face 120.

[0055] Reference Figures 9 to 12 Specifically, the microscope platform 400 is a CCD microscope platform 400. The CCD microscope platform 400 is an imaging system that combines an optical microscope with a CCD (charge-coupled device) camera, primarily used for high-precision observation, recording, and analysis of microstructures. The CCD microscope platform 400 has a scribing function, which allows the overlay of virtual lines (such as crosshairs, straight lines, grids, etc.) onto the image.

[0056] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 9 As shown, the mounting device can mark the calibration center 370 corresponding to the fiber center 110 of the fiber array 100 on the microscope platform 400 by using its built-in scribing function based on the marked image.

[0057] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 9As shown, specifically, the user can use the microscope platform 400 to draw a first marking line 310 along the arrangement direction of the multiple fiber centers 110 at each fiber center 110, and draw a second marking line 320 perpendicular to the first marking line 310 at each fiber center 110. The intersection of the first marking line 310 and the second marking line 320 is the calibration center 370.

[0058] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 9 As shown, the user can draw a first marking line 310 and a second marking line 320 perpendicular to the first marking line 310 on the microscope platform 400 according to the marked image. The intersection of the first marking line 310 and the second marking line 320 is the calibration center 370. That is, the center of the fiber optic cable 110 is marked by drawing a crosshair on the microscope platform 400. The following explanation uses the direction of the first marking line 310 as the X-axis direction (left-right direction), the direction of the second marking line 320 as the Y-axis direction (front-back direction), and the up-down direction as the Z-axis direction as an example.

[0059] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 10 As shown, taking the lower end of the isolator 200 as an example of mounting it to the mounting end face 120 of the fiber array 100, the upper end face of the isolator 200 has a first boundary 210 and a second boundary 220 arranged at intervals along the second marking line 320, that is, the first boundary 210 and the second boundary 220 are spaced apart along the second marking line 320, and both the first boundary 210 and the second boundary 220 are parallel to the first marking line 310.

[0060] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 10 As shown, the user can calculate the first distance between the first boundary 210 and the calibration center 370, and the second distance between the second boundary 220 and the calibration center 370 according to the mounting requirements; draw a first dividing line 330 that is parallel to the first marking line 310 at a first distance, and a second dividing line 340 that is parallel to the first marking line 310 at a second distance, on the microscope platform 400. The first dividing line 330 and the second dividing line 340 are both dividing lines of the mounting area.

[0061] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 10As shown, taking the marked image acquired by the microscope platform 400 as an example, the preset magnification is 100x. If, in actual product requirements, the distance between the first boundary 210 of the isolator 200 and the center 110 of the optical fiber is 0.3mm, then the distance between the first boundary 210 of the isolator 200 and the calibration center 370 in the marked image should be 30mm, i.e., the first distance is 30mm. The calculation method for the second distance of the isolator 200 is the same as that for the first distance, and will not be repeated here.

[0062] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 10 As shown, the first dividing line 330 and the second dividing line 340 are both dividing lines of the mounting area. The mounting equipment can use the first dividing line 330 and the second dividing line 340 to draw on the microscope platform 400, thereby guiding the mounting of the isolator 200 and the optical fiber center 110. The user can adjust the position of the isolator 200 so that the first boundary 210 and the second boundary 220 of the isolator 200 are aligned with the first dividing line 330 and the second dividing line 340 respectively, thereby improving the mounting accuracy of the isolator 200 and the optical fiber center 110.

[0063] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 11 As shown, taking the lower end of the isolator 200 as an example of mounting it to the mounting end face 120 of the fiber array 100, the upper end face of the isolator 200 has a third boundary 230 and a fourth boundary 240 arranged at intervals along the first marking line 310, that is, the third boundary 230 and the fourth boundary 240 are spaced apart along the first marking line 310, and both the third boundary 230 and the fourth boundary 240 are parallel to the second marking line 320.

[0064] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 11 As shown, the user calculates the third distance between the third boundary 230 and the calibration center 370, and the fourth distance between the fourth boundary 240 and the calibration center 370, according to the product mounting requirements; and draws a third dividing line 350 that is parallel to the second marking line 320 at a distance of the third distance, and a fourth dividing line 360 ​​that is parallel to the second marking line 320 at a distance of the fourth distance on the microscope platform 400. The third dividing line 350 and the fourth dividing line 360 ​​are both dividing lines of the mounting area.

[0065] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 11As shown, taking the marked image acquired by the microscope platform 400 as an example, the preset magnification is 100x. If the width of the isolator 200 is 0.5mm in the actual product requirements, then the width of the isolator 200 in the marked image should be 50mm, and the third and fourth distances are both 25mm.

[0066] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 11 As shown, if the X-axis coordinate of the fiber center 110 is 300, then the third distance and the fourth distance are both 25mm. Therefore, the X-axis coordinate of the third dividing line 350 is 275, and the X-axis coordinate of the fourth dividing line 360 ​​is 325.

[0067] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 11 As shown, the third dividing line 350 and the fourth dividing line 360 ​​are both dividing lines of the mounting area. The mounting equipment can use the third dividing line 350 and the fourth dividing line 360 ​​to draw on the microscope platform 400, thereby guiding the mounting of the isolator 200 and the fiber center 110. The user can adjust the position of the isolator 200 so that the third boundary 230 and the fourth boundary 240 of the isolator 200 are aligned with the third dividing line 350 and the fourth dividing line 360 ​​respectively, thereby improving the mounting accuracy of the isolator 200 and the fiber center 110.

[0068] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 12 As shown, the first dividing line 330, the second dividing line 340, the third dividing line 350 and the fourth dividing line 360 ​​jointly define the mounting area, thereby obtaining guidance data about the mounting area relative to the target calibration center 370. The mounting equipment can use the guidance data to guide the mounting of the isolator 200 and the fiber array 100, so as to improve the mounting accuracy of the isolator 200 and the fiber array 100.

[0069] It should be noted that after the isolator 200 is mounted on the mounting surface of the fiber array 100, since the height of the end face of the isolator 200 is not the same as the height of the mounting end face 120 of the fiber array 100, the user can adjust the focal length of the microscope platform 400 to ensure the clarity of the marked image.

[0070] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the mounting equipment also includes an adjustment assembly 560. The microscope platform 400 includes a base and a microscope assembly, which is mounted above the base. The microscope platform 400 is configured to acquire a marking image of the mounting end face 120 of the fiber array 100 located at the clamping station 511. By positioning the fiber array 100 at the clamping station 511, the positioning accuracy of the fiber array 100 is improved, thereby improving the accuracy of the marking image acquisition. Based on the marking image, the optical fiber array 100 can be marked on the microscope platform 400.

The protrusion is configured to abut against the lower end of the third slider 569. The upper end of the third slider 569 is fixedly connected to the assembly platform 570. The user can rotate the fifth threaded component to move closer to the protrusion, thereby driving the protrusion to rotate in the forward direction. Through the abutment between the protrusion and the third slider 569, the third slider 569 is driven to move upward relative to the second slide block 568. The user can rotate the fifth threaded component to move it away from the protrusion. Under the gravity of the third slider 569, the protrusion rotates in the opposite direction, causing the third slider 569 to move downward relative to the second slider 568.
