Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical fiber manufacturing technology, and in particular to a fully automatic optical fiber winding and take-up reel fixing device. Background Technology

[0002] Optical fiber is short for optical waveguide fiber. It is a glass or plastic fiber that transmits light signals using the principle of total internal reflection. It is also the core transmission medium in the field of optical communication. In the process of optical fiber manufacturing, in order to wind the slender optical fiber into a coil for easy storage and transportation, a special fully automatic optical fiber winding machine is used to wind the optical fiber.

[0003] In some common fully automatic fiber winding machines, the take-up reel at the end, used to wind the fiber, is usually fixed to the rotating shafts on both sides by flanges on both sides with bolts. The rotating shafts drive the take-up reel to rotate, thereby winding the fiber. This connection method is relatively traditional, requiring one person to continuously lift the take-up reel while another person helps to fix the flanges to the rotating shafts on both sides. The whole operation process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, which not only increases the labor intensity but also fails to improve the fiber winding efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new fully automatic fiber optic winding and take-up reel fixing device to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

A first dual-axis cylinder is fixedly installed on the top of the first sliding plate and the second sliding plate. A connecting disc is fixedly installed on the output shaft of each of the two first dual-axis cylinders. The two positioning round seats pass through the two connecting discs respectively and are slidably connected to the corresponding connecting discs. A push ring is fixedly installed on the side of each of the two connecting discs that is close to each other. The two positioning round seats pass through the two push rings respectively. The outer edges of the side of each of the two push rings that is close to each other are both set as inclined surfaces. The inclined surfaces are adapted to the hypotenuse of the right-angled triangular abutment block.

[0008] Preferably, a single double-ended lead screw is rotatably mounted on both of the support plates. Two linkage plates are threaded onto the double-ended lead screw.

[0009] Preferably, a second geared motor is fixedly installed on the side of the first sliding plate away from the second sliding plate, and gears are fixedly sleeved on the output shaft of the second geared motor and the drive shaft, and the two gears mesh with each other.

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] Please refer to the following: Figures 1-5 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of the fully automatic fiber optic winding take-up reel fixing device provided by this utility model; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the connecting shaft in this utility model; Figure 3 This is an assembly diagram of the connecting shaft and the positioning round seat in this utility model; Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of the transverse circular groove in this utility model; Figure 5This is a schematic diagram of the connection structure between the connecting disc and the push ring in this utility model. The fully automatic fiber optic winding take-up reel fixing device includes: a support base 1, on which two support plates 2 are fixedly installed. A second dual-axis cylinder 23 is fixedly installed on the side of each support plate 2 that is close to each other. A support platform 24 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of each of the two second dual-axis cylinders 23. A U-shaped placement groove 3 is opened on the top of each support platform 24. A connecting shaft 4 is provided in each of the two U-shaped placement grooves 3. The same take-up reel 5 is fixedly installed at the end of each connecting shaft 4 that is close to each other. During normal winding, the output shaft of the second dual-axis cylinder 23 retracts, separating the connecting shaft 4 from the bottom of the U-shaped placement groove 3, thus preventing interference with the rotation of the take-up reel 5. A first sliding plate 6 and a second sliding plate 7 are slidably installed above the support base 1. An active rotating shaft 8 is rotatably installed on the first sliding plate 6. A passive rotating shaft 9 is rotatably mounted on the sliding plate 7. The passive rotating shaft 9 is mounted on the second sliding plate 7 through a damping bearing. This prevents the passive rotating shaft 9 from easily rotating when the fiber take-up tray 5 is removed, without hindering its rotation. A positioning round seat 10 is fixedly mounted at the end of the active rotating shaft 8 and the passive rotating shaft 9 that are close to each other. A transverse round groove 11 is opened on the side of the two positioning round seats 10 that are close to each other. The ends of the two connecting shafts 4 that are far from each other extend into the two transverse round grooves 11 respectively. The transverse round grooves 11 are adapted to the connecting shafts 4. Multiple locking countersunk holes 12 are opened on the two connecting shafts 4. Multiple positioning pins 13 are slidably mounted on the two positioning round seats 10. The ends of the multiple positioning pins 13 that are close to each other extend into the corresponding locking countersunk holes 12, and the end of the positioning pin 13 that is inserted into the locking countersunk hole 12 is a hemispherical end face.

[0022] In the above method, in order to quickly bring out the multiple positioning pins 13 from the countersunk holes 12 and improve the replacement speed of the fiber take-up tray 5, connecting pieces 14 are fixedly installed at the ends of the multiple positioning pins 13 that are far apart from each other. Right-angled triangular abutment blocks 15 are fixedly installed on the multiple connecting pieces 14. First dual-axis cylinders 18 are fixedly installed on the top of the first sliding plate 6 and the second sliding plate 7. Connecting discs 16 are fixedly installed on the output shafts of the two first dual-axis cylinders 18. Two positioning discs 10 pass through the two connecting discs 16 respectively and are connected to the corresponding connecting discs. The two connecting discs 16 are slidably connected. Each of the two connecting discs 16 has a push ring 17 fixedly installed on one side that is close to each other. The two positioning round seats 10 pass through the two push rings 17 respectively. The outer edges of the two push rings 17 on the side that is close to each other are set as inclined surfaces. The inclined surfaces are adapted to the hypotenuse of the right-angled triangular contact block 15. By extending the output shaft of the first dual-axis cylinder 18, the right-angled triangular contact block 15 can be pushed upward by using the cooperation between the inclined surfaces and the hypotenuse of the right-angled triangular contact block 15, which can then quickly bring out the multiple positioning pins 13 out of the locking countersunk hole 12.

[0023] In this method, in order to drive the first sliding plate 6 and the second sliding plate 7 to move horizontally electrically, the same double-ended lead screw 19 is rotatably installed on the two support plates 2, and two linkage plates 20 are threaded on it. Push-pull rods 21 are fixedly installed on the opposite sides of the two linkage plates 20. The opposite ends of the two push-pull rods 21 are fixedly connected to the first sliding plate 6 and the second sliding plate 7, respectively, and the two push-pull rods 21 pass through the two support plates 2 and are slidably connected to the corresponding support plates 2. A first reduction motor is fixedly installed on one side of one of the support plates 2, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to one end of the double-ended lead screw 19. The operation of the first reduction motor can drive the first sliding plate 6 and the second sliding plate 7 to move closer to each other or further away from each other. In order to further improve the stability of the movement of the first sliding plate 6 and the second sliding plate 7, multiple balls are embedded in the bottom of the first sliding plate 6 and the second sliding plate 7, and the multiple balls are tangent to the top of the support base 1.

[0024] In this method, in order to drive the fiber take-up reel 5 to rotate, a second reduction motor is fixedly installed on the side of the first sliding plate 6 away from the second sliding plate 7. Gears are fixedly sleeved on both its output shaft and the drive shaft 8, and the two gears mesh with each other.

[0025] In this method, in order to ensure that the positioning pin 13 can be stably inserted into the countersunk hole 12, a return spring 22 is sleeved on each of the multiple positioning pins 13. One end of each of the multiple return springs 22 is fixedly connected to the corresponding positioning round seat 10, and the other end of each of the multiple return springs 22 is fixedly connected to the corresponding connecting piece 14.

[0026] The working principle of the fully automatic fiber optic winding and take-up reel fixing device provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0027] When it is necessary to remove the used fiber take-up reel 5 and fix the next fiber take-up reel 5 to be used, first activate the output shafts of the two second dual-axis cylinders 23 to extend, so that the two support platforms 24 rise, and finally make the two connecting shafts 4 contact the bottom inner wall of the U-shaped placement groove 3, thereby providing support for the connecting shafts 4. Then activate the output shafts of the two first dual-axis cylinders 18 to extend, and the two connecting discs 16 move towards each other, thereby moving the two push rings 17 together. When the inclined surface of the outer edge of the push ring 17 contacts the hypotenuse of the right-angled triangular abutment block 15, it will push the right-angled triangular abutment block 15, so that multiple right-angled triangular abutment blocks 15 move away from the connecting shaft 4, and then be able to be pulled out from the locking countersunk hole 12 with the positioning pin 13 gripped tightly until the output shaft of the first dual-axis cylinder 18 is fully extended, which means that the positioning pin 13 has been completely removed from the locking countersunk hole 12. At this time, the return spring 22 is in a stretched state.

[0028] Then, the first geared motor is started in the forward direction, and its output shaft drives the double-headed lead screw 19 to rotate. The two linkage plates 20 move away from each other until the connecting shaft 4 separates from the positioning round seat 10. Then, the first geared motor is turned off, and the used fiber take-up reel 5 is directly lifted out of the U-shaped placement groove 3. Then, the next fiber take-up reel 5 is placed in the two U-shaped placement grooves 3, and the first geared motor is started in the reverse direction. The two linkage plates 20 move closer to each other, and finally, the two connecting shafts 4 enter the two transverse round grooves 11 respectively. Then, the output shaft of the second dual-axis cylinder 23 is started to retract, so that the bottom of the U-shaped placement groove 3 separates from the connecting shaft 4. Then, the output shafts of the two first dual-axis cylinders 18 are started to retract, and the push ring sleeve 17 separates from the right-angled triangular contact block 15. During the separation process, if multiple positioning pins 13 are exactly aligned with the corresponding countersunk holes 12, the stretched return spring 22 is reset, directly... Multiple positioning pins 13 are inserted into the corresponding countersunk holes 12. If the positioning pins 13 do not correspond to the countersunk holes 12, the second reduction motor can be started slowly. Through the meshing of two gears, the active rotating shaft 8 and its corresponding positioning seat 10 can be rotated. During the rotation of the positioning seat 10, when the positioning pins 13 rotate to correspond to the corresponding countersunk holes 12, the return spring 22 will automatically insert them into the countersunk holes 12. At this time, the positioning seat 10 on the active rotating shaft 8 is engaged with the corresponding connecting shaft 4. Then, driven by the connecting shaft 4, another connecting shaft 4 will rotate in the positioning seat 10 on the passive rotating shaft 9. Similarly, when the corresponding positioning pins 13 correspond to the corresponding countersunk holes 12, the return spring 22 will automatically insert them into the countersunk holes 12. Thus, the fiber take-up tray 5 is fixed and can then be put into use.

[0029] Compared with related technologies, the fully automatic fiber optic winding and take-up tray fixing device provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0030] This utility model provides a fully automatic fiber optic winding and take-up reel fixing device. By opening a transverse circular groove 11 on the positioning circular seat 10, the connecting shaft 4 can be automatically moved into the transverse circular groove 11 by the cooperation of the double-headed lead screw 19 and the linkage plate 20. Then, by the cooperation of the return spring 22 and the positioning pin 13, as well as the rotation function of the active rotating shaft 8, the positioning pin 13 can be automatically brought into the locking countersunk hole 12, thereby completing the installation and fixing of the take-up reel 5. The entire fixing process only requires placing the take-up reel 5 in the U-shaped placement groove 3 at the beginning, and the remaining process can be completed without effort. It saves effort and also eliminates the traditional bolt installation, saving fixing time to a certain extent, thereby improving the overall fiber winding efficiency.
