Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical fiber and cable transmission engineering technology, and in particular to a robust and durable optical cable identification tag. Background Technology

[0002] Fiber optic cables offer advantages such as high bandwidth, low cost, high anti-interference performance, and ease of deployment. To date, the length of fiber optic cables in use has reached hundreds of millions of kilometers, connecting all areas of human life. Since fiber optic cables handle information transmission between communication devices, most of their applications are outdoors, exposed to numerous environmental factors that can cause damage. To quickly identify the target fiber optic cable, users require clear markings when laying new cables; therefore, a robust and durable fiber optic cable identification tag needs to be developed.

[0003] A search revealed Chinese Patent Publication No. CN210627676U, which discloses an optical cable identification tag assembly. The assembly includes a tag strip and a fixing member. One end of the tag strip has at least one fixing hole, and the other end has multiple mating holes. The fixing hole and mating holes can cooperate with each other and are secured to the optical cable by the fixing member. An identification structure is integrally formed on the surface of the tag strip. This invention offers the advantages of adjustable optical cable tag size and easy optical cable identification.

[0004] The aforementioned utility model adapts to optical cables of different thicknesses by using a fixing hole and multiple mating holes. The label strip has an integrally set identification structure on its surface to prevent the identification structure from falling off, and the cable can be directly identified through the identification structure. However, in actual use, when the relevant information of the optical cable, such as number, purpose, maintenance records, etc., changes, the lack of a detachable identification plate structure means that updating the information on the label may require replacing the entire label assembly, which is cumbersome and wasteful of costs. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a firmly connected and durable optical cable identification tag, which aims to improve the problem that identified items are easily damaged or dropped in the existing technology, or even mistakenly hung on other optical cables after the tag falls off, causing greater confusion or even harm to the later maintenance of optical cables.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a firmly connected and durable optical cable identification tag, comprising an encoding strip, an identification plate slidably connected to the inner wall of the encoding strip, fixing holes at both ends of the encoding strip, a string of numbers on the identification plate, a sliding groove one and a sliding groove two inside the encoding strip, an elastic plate fixedly connected to the outer wall of the identification plate, the outer wall of the elastic plate being connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove two, and the outer wall of the elastic plate being slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove one.

[0007] The above technical solution enables staff to quickly identify and distinguish different optical cables by installing labeling plates, accurately locate target optical cables in complex cabling environments, improve operation and maintenance efficiency, and the detachable feature allows the label coding strips to be adjusted and rearranged according to actual needs.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0009] The coding strip has one fixing hole at one end and three fixing holes at the other end. The coding strip is a stainless steel metal strip. The fixing components for the coding strip can be either nylon cable ties or custom-made pin tumbler locks.

[0010] The above technical solution involves using stainless steel coding strips, which will not be damaged under harsh environmental conditions such as long-term water immersion, sun exposure, and rain. By setting two fixing methods, users can choose between nylon cable ties and pin tumbler locks for other optical cable environments.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0012] The information in the coded bar can be queried through a user terminal.

[0013] Through the above technical solution, the user terminal can encapsulate the query request into a data packet of a specific format by encapsulating the request data packet, ensuring that the data has a uniform structure and standard during transmission.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] The user terminal is connected to a public mobile wireless network base station via a 4G or 5G wireless communication link.

[0016] Through the above technical solutions, 4G or 5G wireless communication links have the characteristics of high bandwidth and low latency, which can quickly and reliably transmit the encapsulated request data packets of user terminals, and at the same time accurately send the response data packets of the server back to the user terminals, ensuring the high efficiency of data transmission.

[0017] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0018] The public mobile wireless network base station is bidirectionally connected to the user optical cable coding server according to network protocols and routing rules.

[0019] Through the above technical solutions, network protocols and routing rules provide a stable and reliable guarantee for the communication process. Even when the network is busy or the signal is unstable, the base station can perform error correction, retransmission and other operations according to the protocol to ensure the accurate transmission of data packets.

[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0021] The user optical cable coding server is connected to the optical cable coding information database via a bidirectional communication link within an internal high-speed data link.

[0022] Through the above technical solution, after receiving a query request forwarded from a public mobile wireless network base station, the user optical cable coding server can quickly retrieve data from the optical cable coding information database through this link. Furthermore, when multiple users initiate query requests simultaneously, the high-speed link can ensure that data interaction between the server and the database will not be blocked, thus maintaining the efficient operation of the system.

[0023] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0024] The public mobile wireless network base station establishes a two-way communication connection with the user terminal through a 4G or 5G wireless communication link.

[0025] Through the above technical solution, the wireless communication link allows a large number of user terminals to access the base station simultaneously, meeting the query needs of different users. Furthermore, the two-way communication mechanism enables real-time data interaction, allowing users to perform further operations based on server feedback when querying optical cable coding information.

[0026] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0027] The user terminal parses the response data packet and displays the query results to the user.

[0028] Through the above technical solution, the user terminal can parse the response data packets received by the server, enabling the user to quickly and accurately obtain the required information without having to interpret complex data formats.

[0029] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0030] 1. In this utility model, the label plate can be disassembled by the cooperation between the coding strip, the elastic card plate, the sliding groove one, and the sliding groove two. When the label is damaged or the information is changed, it can be easily disassembled and replaced with a new label or the information can be rewritten without damaging the optical cable and surrounding facilities, thus saving costs and time.

[0031] 2. In this utility model, the user terminal can communicate instantly with the user's dedicated server through a 4G or 5G public mobile wireless network, and can quickly identify the target optical cable by bidirectionally querying the correspondence between the information of each optical cable and the numerical string code on the optical cable tag.

[0038] 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 protection scope of the present utility model.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The present invention provides an embodiment of a robust and durable optical cable identification tag, comprising an encoding strip 1, an identification plate 3 slidably connected to the inner wall of the encoding strip 1, fixing holes 4 at both ends of the encoding strip 1, a string of numbers on the identification plate 3, a sliding groove 2 and a sliding groove 5 inside the encoding strip 1, an elastic plate 6 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the identification plate 3, the outer wall of the elastic plate 6 being connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 2 5, and the outer wall of the elastic plate 6 being slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 2 ;

[0040] Specifically, the coding strip 1 serves to fix the position of the identification plate 3. The fixing holes 4 at both ends of the coding strip 1 are used to easily adjust the fastening gap on the optical cable. The sliding groove 2 inside the coding strip 1 allows the elastic locking plate 6 to slide through the sliding groove 2 into the sliding groove 5. The sliding groove 5 can fix the position of the elastic locking plate 6. Thus, the identification plate 3 can be fixedly placed inside the coding strip 1 by the elastic locking plate 6. When it is necessary to disassemble or replace the identification plate 3, it can slide out from inside the sliding groove 2 by the elastic locking plate 6, thereby pulling the identification plate 3 out. Its detachability ensures the quick replacement of damaged codes and ensures the input reliability of the data transmission link in the flowchart.

[0041] Reference Figure 1 One end of the coding strip 1 is provided with a fixing hole 4, and the other end is provided with three fixing holes 4. The coding strip 1 is a stainless steel metal strip. The fixing components of the coding strip 1 can be either nylon cable ties or customized pin tumbler locks.

[0042] Specifically, by setting up a stainless steel metal coding strip 1, it can withstand long-term immersion in water, exposure to sun and rain and other harsh environmental conditions without damage, and can maintain its position for a long time. By using nylon cable ties or customized pin tumbler locks to fix the tag strip to the target optical cable, it can be used for a long time in various harsh environments such as water immersion, soil burial, sun and rain, and is firmly connected to the optical cable and is not easy to fall off.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The information in coded bar 1 can be queried through the user terminal; the user terminal is connected to the public mobile wireless network base station through a 4G or 5G wireless communication link; the public mobile wireless network base station is connected to the user optical cable coding server through bidirectional communication according to network protocols and routing rules.

[0044] Specifically, the user terminal first inputs the coded string from a fiber optic cable tag on site. Then, the user terminal encapsulates the request data packet to encapsulate the obtained coded information and sends it to the public mobile wireless network base station via a 4G or 5G network. The public mobile wireless network base station then transmits the received request data packet to the user's fiber optic cable coding server via a 4G or 5G public mobile wireless network.

[0045] Reference Figure 4 The user's optical fiber coding server is connected to the optical fiber coding information database through a two-way communication link within a high-speed internal data link; the public mobile wireless network base station is connected to the user terminal through a two-way communication link via a 4G or 5G wireless communication link; the user terminal parses the response data packet and displays the query results to the user.

[0046] Specifically, a two-way communication mechanism enables the server to monitor the data status in the database in real time and make adjustments and synchronizations when necessary to ensure data consistency and provide users with accurate and reliable query results. The user's optical cable coding server can generate standardized database query instructions to query the optical cable coding information database for the correspondence between each optical cable information and the numerical string code on the optical cable tag. Through a two-way connection, the public mobile wireless network base station can receive the response data packets returned by the server and then forward them to the user terminal. This allows users to intuitively and comprehensively understand the target optical cable and tag information through the user terminal, which includes smart devices such as mobile phone apps and tablets.

[0047] Working principle: When the label plate 3 needs to be fixedly installed on the coding strip 1, the elastic plate 6 can slide into the inside of the sliding groove 2 through the sliding groove 1, thereby fixing the position of the label plate 3 through the engagement between the elastic plate 6 and the sliding groove 2, which makes it convenient for staff to quickly identify and distinguish different optical cables, accurately find the target optical cable in complex wiring environments, and improve maintenance efficiency. When the label plate 3 needs to be disassembled, the label plate 3 can be pushed out from the inside of the coding strip 1. At this time, the label plate 3 can drive the elastic plate 6 to slide from the inside of the sliding groove 2 to the inside of the sliding groove 1, thereby sliding out through the sliding groove 1, thus achieving the effect of removing the label plate 3, which is convenient for disassembly and replacement. The detachable feature allows the label coding strip 1 to be adjusted and rearranged according to actual needs.

[0048] The user terminal inputs the coded string from a fiber optic cable tag on-site. Then, using the data encapsulation request data packet function on the user terminal, the user query request can be encapsulated into a request data packet and sent to the public mobile wireless network base station via a 4G or 5G public mobile wireless network. The public mobile wireless network base station then communicates instantly with the user's fiber optic cable coding server according to network protocol routing rules. It can then access the fiber optic cable coding information database to query data, read the name, specifications, and other information corresponding to the fiber optic cable, and transmit it bidirectionally to the user terminal to facilitate maintenance personnel in quickly identifying the target fiber optic cable.

[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
