[0003] However, in existing technologies, some devices are part of a continuous production system. As a key guiding component, the universal guide wheel's failure to be promptly disassembled and repaired can render the entire equipment inoperable, leading to a production interruption. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies and provide a universal guide wheel for optical fiber manufacturing equipment. This internally adjustable structure facilitates operation by maintenance personnel when malfunctions occur or periodic maintenance is required. Maintenance personnel can easily move the second limiting block to a suitable position by rotating the main wheel, thereby facilitating the inspection, replacement, or repair of the internal components of the guide wheel. The second limiting groove within the collar increases the structural strength and stability of the secondary wheel. When the secondary wheel is subjected to external forces, such as equipment vibration or tension generated by changes in optical fiber tension, the second limiting groove can restrict the displacement of internal components.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a universal guide wheel for optical fiber manufacturing equipment is provided, comprising a main wheel body, a push block slidably connected to the outside of the main wheel body, a sliding column fixedly connected to one end of the push block, two first locking blocks fixedly connected inside the sliding column, and a fixing component for limiting and fixing slidably connected to the outside of the sliding column, wherein a plurality of first limiting grooves are provided inside the limiting component.

[0006] According to the universal guide wheel for optical fiber manufacturing equipment, the fixing assembly includes a first limiting block, the interior of which is slidably connected to the exterior of the sliding column.

[0007] According to the general guide wheel for optical fiber manufacturing equipment, a plurality of second limiting blocks are fixedly connected inside the main wheel body, and two second locking blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the second limiting blocks.

[0008] According to the general guide wheel for optical fiber manufacturing equipment, a secondary wheel body is detachably connected to the outside of the main wheel body, and a collar is detachably connected to the inside of the secondary wheel body.

[0009] According to the universal guide wheel for optical fiber manufacturing equipment, the collar has a limiting component inside for restricting the movement of the mechanism in a specified position, and the secondary wheel body has a bearing detachably connected inside.

[0010] According to the universal guide wheel for optical fiber manufacturing equipment, the limiting assembly includes a second limiting groove, the outside of which is fixedly connected to the inside of the collar.

[0011] According to the general guide wheel for optical fiber manufacturing equipment, the bearing has multiple sliding grooves inside, the auxiliary wheel body has multiple bolts threaded inside, and the auxiliary wheel body has a third limiting groove inside.

[0012] According to the universal guide wheel for optical fiber manufacturing equipment, the second locking block is externally slidably connected to the inside of the sliding groove, and the first limiting block is externally slidably connected to the inside of the main wheel body.

[0013] Beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. Connect the main wheel body and the auxiliary wheel body by connecting the first locking block fixed externally to the first limiting groove inside the first limiting block. Rotate the main wheel body to move the second limiting block inside the sliding groove of the bearing, and fix it in the sliding groove by the second locking block externally. This internally adjustable structure facilitates operation by maintenance personnel when a malfunction occurs or periodic maintenance is required. Maintenance personnel can easily move the second limiting block to the appropriate position by rotating the main wheel body, thus facilitating the inspection, replacement, or repair of the internal components of the guide wheel.

[0015] 2. A collar is fitted inside the secondary wheel body, with a second limiting groove inside the collar. This second limiting groove increases the structural strength and stability of the secondary wheel body. When the secondary wheel body is subjected to external forces, such as equipment vibration or tensile forces caused by changes in fiber tension, the second limiting groove can restrict the displacement of internal components.

The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0025] Reference Figure 1-4 This utility model discloses a universal guide wheel for optical fiber manufacturing equipment, comprising a main wheel body 1. A push block 2 is slidably connected to the outside of the main wheel body 1, serving a protective and buffering function. A sliding column 3 is fixedly connected to one end of the push block 2. Two first locking blocks 4 are fixedly connected inside the sliding column 3 for connecting and fixing mechanical components, ensuring their stability in a predetermined position. This connection is crucial for ensuring the normal operation and safety of the mechanical equipment. A fixing component for limiting and fixing is slidably connected to the outside of the sliding column 3, and the limiting component has multiple first limiting grooves 6 inside.

[0026] The fixing component includes a first limiting block 5, which restricts the movement range of the mechanical parts and ensures that they stop accurately at a predetermined position. The interior of the first limiting block 5 is slidably connected to the exterior of the sliding column 3.

[0027] The main wheel body 1 has multiple second limiting blocks 11 fixedly connected inside, and two second locking blocks 12 are fixedly connected to both sides of the second limiting blocks 11.

[0028] The main wheel body 1 is detachably connected to the external part of the auxiliary wheel body 7, and the auxiliary wheel body 7 is detachably connected to the internal part of the collar 8.

[0029] The collar 8 has an internal limiting component to restrict the movement of the mechanism to a specified position. The secondary wheel 7 has a detachably connected bearing 10 that supports the rotating shaft or moving parts, maintaining their correct position relative to other components. This helps reduce friction during movement and ensures smooth operation of the mechanical system.

[0030] The limiting component includes a second limiting groove 9 for limiting the rotation angle of the rotating component. The outside of the second limiting groove 9 is fixedly connected to the inside of the collar 8.

[0031] The bearing 10 has multiple sliding grooves 15 inside, the auxiliary wheel body 7 has multiple bolts 14 threaded inside, and the auxiliary wheel body 7 has a third limiting groove 13 inside.

[0032] The second locking block 12 is externally slidably connected to the inside of the sliding groove 15, and the first limiting block 5 is externally slidably connected to the inside of the main wheel body 1.

[0033] Working principle: The main wheel body 1 and the auxiliary wheel body 7 are connected. The first locking block 4, fixed externally to the sliding column 3, is connected to the first limiting groove 6 inside the first limiting block 5. Rotating the main wheel body 1 causes the internal second limiting block 11 to move within the sliding groove 15 inside the bearing 10. The second locking block 12 externally to the second limiting block 11 is then fixed within the sliding groove 15. This adjustable internal structure facilitates operation by maintenance personnel in case of malfunction or during routine maintenance. Maintenance personnel can easily move the second limiting block 11 to a suitable position by rotating the main wheel body 1, thus facilitating the inspection, replacement, or repair of the internal components of the guide wheel. A collar 8 is fitted inside the auxiliary wheel body 7, with a second limiting groove 9 inside the collar. This second limiting groove 9 within the collar 8 increases the structural strength and stability of the auxiliary wheel body 7. When the auxiliary wheel body 7 is subjected to external force, the second limiting groove 9 restricts the displacement of internal components.

[0034] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings.
