[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "setting" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections or detachable connections; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; or internal connections between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in the present utility model based on the specific circumstances. Furthermore, in the description of the present utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present utility model.

[0022] Example 1, please refer to Figure 1-5 This utility model provides an embodiment of a detachable cable cleaner, including a base 1 and an upper cover 2 hinged to the top of the base 1 via a connecting pin 3. An opening for cable passage is formed between the base 1 and the upper cover 2. Both the base 1 and the upper cover 2 have wiping pads 4 for wiping the cable at opposite ends. The wiping pads 4 can be rectangular cotton pads. Both the base 1 and the upper cover 2 have limiting grooves 7 that fit the wiping pads 4 at opposite ends. The wiping pads 4 are adhered to the limiting grooves 7 with adhesive backing to prevent displacement during cable wiping. The adhesive backing also facilitates replacement. The ends of the wiping pads 4 extend to the outside of the limiting grooves 7. The wiping pads 4 can undergo elastic deformation, wrapping around the outside of the wire for all-round wiping, resulting in good cleaning effect. In the prior art, some wire surface residues can harm the hands. For example, after the fiber optic stripping, there may be broken fiber optics on the surface. The fiber optics are small and transparent, and it is difficult to remove them if they are stuck in the hand. Using this cleaning tool can greatly reduce the risk of hand injury. When using fiber optic wipers, alcohol or other cleaning agents that are harmful to the skin are usually used together. This cleaner can effectively prevent the solution from directly contacting the skin and protect the skin.

[0023] The base 1 is provided with a fixing structure that connects to the tool pliers body 8. In this embodiment, the fixing structure includes a plug-in slot 101 located at the bottom of the base 1. The plug-in slot 101 is used to clamp onto the tool pliers body 8. The tool pliers body 8 generally has two rotatably connected pliers heads. In order to avoid affecting the rotation of the tool pliers body 8, the plug-in slot 101 is generally inserted into the outer wall of the upper pliers head. The plug-in slot 101 can undergo elastic deformation and can be inserted into and clamped onto various tool pliers bodies 8, especially various fiber optic Miller pliers, multi-functional fiber optic cable stripping pliers, electrician's pliers, etc. The installation method is simple and the disassembly is convenient. Before or after using the tool pliers body 8 to process the wire, the wire can be quickly cleaned. Unlike other cleaners fixed on the pliers, this cleaner can also be removed separately and used as an independent cleaning product to meet different usage needs.

[0024] Reference Appendix Figure 4 To further improve the installation stability of the cleaner, in this embodiment, the base 1 is provided with inserts 102 on the side near the handle of the pliers body 8. The inserts 102 are two thin pieces with a thickness less than the width of the side walls of the base 1. An anti-slip sleeve 9 is fitted onto the outside of the handle of the pliers body 8. The inserts 102 are used to insert into the inside of the anti-slip sleeve 9 for limiting. The anti-slip sleeve 9 fits the two inserts 102 inside, which can prevent the base 1 from separating from the pliers body 8. At the same time, in the prior art, the anti-slip sleeve 9 is generally made of elastic rubber material, which improves the installation stability of the cleaner and makes installation and disassembly more convenient and quick.

[0025] To prevent the two wiping pads 4 from becoming contaminated when not in use, a fixing member 5 is provided between the base 1 and the top cover 2 for closing the openings of the base 1 and the top cover 2. In this embodiment, the fixing member 5 is a latch rotatably located at the end of the base 1 away from the connecting pin 3. (Refer to the attached document.) Figure 2The latch is specifically a rectangular metal rod bent into an open end, with positioning parts 501 bent on both sides of the latch opening. Positioning holes 103, matching the positioning parts 501, are provided on the side walls of both sides of the base 1. The two positioning parts 501 are inserted into the two positioning holes 103 respectively for positioning, and can rotate freely within the positioning holes 103. The top of the upper cover 2 has a positioning groove 201 that matches the fixing member 5. When the fixing member 5 rotates upward and overlaps the positioning groove 201, the wiping pads 4 at opposite ends of the base 1 and the upper cover 2 are in contact with each other. A torsion spring 6, used to push the openings of the base 1 and the upper cover 2, is sleeved on the connecting pin 3. The specific structure of the torsion spring 6 is existing technology, and its sleeve... The connecting pin 3 has two free ends. The base 1 and the top cover 2 each have grooves at opposite ends that fit the two free ends of the torsion spring 6. The two free ends abut against the two grooves for positioning. When wiping the wire is not required, first rotate the top cover 2 towards the end closer to the base 1, causing the two wiping pads 4 to come into contact. Then rotate the fixing member 5 upwards until the top of the fixing member 5 is engaged in the positioning groove 201. At this point, the torsion spring 6 is compressed, pushing the top cover 2 to rotate around the connecting pin 3 away from the base 1, causing the positioning groove 201 to press against the fixing member 5 for locking. This prevents dust or powder from sticking to the wiping pads 4, extending their service life. See the attached diagram for details. Figure 5 .

[0026] In one embodiment, the fixing element 5 can also be a magnet, which is fixed to one end of the base 1 and the top cover 2 respectively (not shown in the figure). In this case, there is no need to set the torsion spring 6. When not in use, the base 1 and the top cover 2 can be attracted and fixed, which can also prevent the wiping pad 4 from being contaminated.

[0027] Reference Appendix Figure 4 Based on the same inventive concept, this embodiment also proposes a pair of pliers, including a pliers body 8 and the aforementioned detachable cable cleaner. The pliers body 8 can be various types of fiber optic Miller pliers, multi-functional fiber optic cable stripping pliers, electrician's pliers, etc. The specific structure is prior art and will not be described in detail here. The detachable cable cleaner is specifically installed at the pliers head of the pliers body 8.

[0028] Example 2, please refer to Figure 6 The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the insert 102 is not provided. The base 1 is fixedly connected to the tool pliers body 8 by bolts 10. The insertion slot 101 is inserted into the tool pliers body 8. Specifically, the base 1 and the tool pliers body 8 have through holes that are compatible with the bolts 10. After the bolts 10 pass through the through holes, a fastening nut is connected to fix the base 1 and the tool pliers body 8. Alternatively, the bolts 10 can be directly threaded to the side wall of the base 1. After the insertion slot 101 is inserted into the tool pliers body 8, the tool pliers body 8 can be tightened by the bolts 10.

[0029] Example 3, please refer to Figure 7 The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the insert 102 is not provided. The base 1 is fixedly connected to the tool pliers body 8 by the buckle 11. Both the base 1 and the tool pliers body 8 are provided with through holes that are adapted to the buckle 11. After the buckle 11 passes through the through hole, the base 1 and the tool pliers body 8 are fixed. The installation and disassembly are convenient and quick. In order to improve the firmness, multiple buckles 11 can be provided.

[0030] Example 4 differs from Example 1 in that the insert 102 is not provided, and the insertion slot 101 is fixed to the tool pliers body 8 by adhesive.
