The fixing bolts 45 are provided on the inner side of the fixing plate 43. The traction assembly 44 is provided on the side of the fixing plate 43 away from the fixing bolts 45.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, when using the winding assembly 4, the optical cable sleeve is first passed through the inside of the traction assembly 44, and then one end of the optical cable sleeve is fixed to the surface of the reel 46. The speed of the first motor 42 is adjusted according to the production speed of the optical cable sleeve, so that the first motor 42 can drive the reel 46 to rotate at a suitable speed. During the winding process, the winding direction of the optical cable sleeve can be changed by the traction assembly 44, so that the optical cable sleeve can be wound more evenly onto the surface of the reel 46. The convenience of the winding work reduces the involvement of laborers and reduces the workload.

[0025] Specifically, the traction assembly 44 includes a second motor 441, a mounting bracket 442, a threaded block 443, a screw 444, a traction ring 445, and a connecting plate 446.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, when using the traction component 44, the second motor 441 is started, which drives the screw 444 to rotate. The screw 444 further drives the threaded block 443 and the connecting plate 446 to move, thereby enabling the traction ring 445 to drive the optical cable sleeve to change the winding direction, making the winding more uniform and improving the traction function of the component.

[0027] Specifically, a protrusion is provided on one side of the threaded block 443, and a side groove is provided on the inner side of the mounting bracket 442.

The speed of the first motor 42 is adjusted according to the production speed of the optical cable sheath, so that the first motor 42 can drive the reel 46 to rotate at a suitable speed. During the winding process, the winding direction of the optical cable sheath can be changed by the traction assembly 44, so that the optical cable sheath can be wound more evenly onto the surface of the reel 46. The convenience of the winding work reduces the participation of laborers and reduces the workload. When using the traction assembly 44, the second motor 441 is started, which drives the screw 444 to rotate. The screw 444 further drives the threaded block 443 and the connecting plate 446 to move, so that the traction ring 445 can drive the optical cable sheath to change the winding direction, making the winding more even and improving the traction function of the assembly. The synchronous movement of the protrusion in the side groove can guide the threaded block 443 and improve the stability of the movement of the threaded block 443.

The cooling device 2 is provided with a limiting frame 66 inside, mounting plates 67 are installed on both sides of the limiting frame 66, an insert block 68 is provided on the inner side of the limiting frame 66, a rotating shaft 64 is provided on one side surface of the insert block 68, the rotation of the rotating shaft 64 is provided with a limiting roller 63, a limiting groove 65 is provided in the middle of the limiting roller 63, a handle 62 is provided on the top of the limiting roller 63, and a mounting groove 61 is opened on the inner side of the expanded baffle plate 7.

[0032] By adopting the above technical solution, when using the guide component 6, the limiting frame 66 is first installed inside the cooling equipment 2, and then the insert 68 is inserted into the limiting frame 66 through the handle 62. The optical cable sleeve passes through the limiting groove 65 in the middle of the limiting roller 63. The limiting groove 65 can guide the optical cable sleeve. When the moving block 5 drives the expansion baffle 7 to move, the insert 68 can be inserted into the mounting groove 61 through the handle 62, avoiding the cumbersome guide wheel installation process and improving work efficiency.

[0033] Specifically, a pin hole is provided on one side surface of the limit bracket 66, and a pin is provided inside the pin hole.

[0034] By adopting the above technical solution, the position of the plug 68 can be limited by inserting the pin into the pin hole at different positions, so that the plug 68 can be fixed at different height positions, thus expanding the scope of application.

[0035] In this embodiment, when using the guide assembly 6, firstly, the limiting frame 66 is installed inside the cooling device 2. Then, the insert 68 is inserted into the limiting frame 66 using the handle 62. The optical cable sleeve passes through the limiting groove 65 in the middle of the limiting roller 63. The limiting groove 65 guides the optical cable sleeve. When the moving block 5 drives the expanded baffle 7 to move, the insert 68 can be inserted into the mounting groove 61 using the handle 62.

[0037] The working principle and usage process of this utility model: This utility model adjusts a sleeve forming device for optical cable production. When using the winding assembly 4, the optical cable sleeve is first passed through the traction assembly 44, and then one end of the optical cable sleeve is fixed to the surface of the reel 46. The speed of the first motor 42 is adjusted according to the optical cable sleeve production speed so that the first motor 42 can drive the reel 46 to rotate at a suitable speed. During the winding process, the winding direction of the optical cable sleeve can be changed by the traction assembly 44, so that the optical cable sleeve can be wound more evenly onto the surface of the reel 46. The convenience of the winding work reduces the involvement of laborers and reduces the workload. When using the traction assembly 44, the second motor 441 is started, which drives the screw 444 to rotate. The screw 444 further drives the threaded block 443 and the connecting plate 446 to move, so that the traction ring 445 can drive the optical cable sleeve to change the winding direction. This makes the winding more uniform and improves the traction function of the component. The synchronous movement of the protrusion in the side groove can guide the threaded block 443 and improve the stability of the movement of the threaded block 443. This utility model is for adjusting a sleeve forming device for optical cable production. When using the guide component 6, first install the limiting frame 66 into the cooling equipment 2, and then use the handle 62 to insert the plug 68 into the limiting frame 66. The optical cable sleeve passes through the limiting groove 65 in the middle of the limiting roller 63. The limiting groove 65 can guide the optical cable sleeve. When the moving block 5 drives the expanding baffle 7 to move, the plug 68 can be inserted into the mounting groove 61 through the handle 62, avoiding the cumbersome guide wheel installation process and improving work efficiency. By inserting the pin into the pin hole at different positions, the position of the plug 68 can be limited by the pin, so that the plug 68 can be fixed at different height positions, expanding the scope of application.
