Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical fiber hot stripping pliers, and in particular to a small optical fiber hot stripping pliers with a motherboard-less design. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of modern communication technology, optical fiber has become an important carrier of information transmission due to its advantages such as high transmission rate, large capacity, and strong anti-interference capability. The connection and splicing of optical fibers are key aspects of communication engineering. Before performing these operations, the coating layer of the optical fiber needs to be stripped to expose the bare fiber.

[0003] Traditional fiber optic thermal stripping clamps have many shortcomings, such as complex structure, including a large number of components such as a motherboard, resulting in large equipment size and high cost; and a single power supply method, which cannot meet the needs of use in special environments such as the field; low heating efficiency and uneven heating, which can easily cause poor stripping quality of the fiber coating, affecting the effect of subsequent fiber connection and fusion splicing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] This utility model adopts the following technical solution: a small fiber optic thermal stripper without a motherboard design, including a base, a shaft rotatably connected to the inner wall of the base, a top cover fixedly installed on the outer wall of the shaft, an indicator light and a baffle fixedly installed on the inner wall of the top cover, a power interface fixedly installed on the inner wall of the base, a spring fixedly installed on the outer wall of the base, a switch fixedly installed on the inner wall of the base, a silicone pressure plate fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base, a silicone pressure pad and a thermal stripper blade fixedly installed on the lower surface of the top cover, and a locking buckle rotatably connected to the outer wall of the base.

[0006] Preferably, a heating plate pressure plate is fixedly installed on the top of the base, a large heating plate is fixedly installed on the side of the top of the base away from the heating plate pressure plate, a heat stripper blade is fixedly installed on one side of the base, a small heating plate is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the upper cover, and a heat insulation block is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the base. Here, the heating plate pressure plate can firmly fix the heating plate, ensuring its stable position during operation and uniform heating effect. The large and small heating plates are respectively set on the base and the upper cover, which can realize double-sided heating of the optical fiber, improve heating efficiency and uniformity, and make the optical fiber coating layer soften more quickly and fully, facilitating subsequent stripping. The heat stripper blade contactes the upper part of the heat stripper blade, and can accurately and cleanly strip the optical fiber coating layer in the softened state after heating, ensuring stripping quality. The installation of the heat insulation block effectively prevents the disorderly conduction of heat inside the equipment, reduces the thermal impact on other components, extends the service life of the equipment, and also reduces heat loss to the outside, improving energy utilization efficiency.

[0007] Preferably, the inner wall of the spring on the side away from the base is fixedly installed to the inner wall of the top cover. Here, the spring connects the base and the top cover, providing automatic assistance during the opening and closing of the top cover. When opening, the spring force assists the top cover to spring up quickly, saving the operator's effort; when closing, the spring's cushioning effect makes the top cover close more smoothly, avoiding damage to the thermal stripper blade or unnecessary damage to the optical fiber due to excessive force.

[0008] Preferably, the outer wall of the latch on the side away from the base engages with the outer wall of the top cover, and the lower part and upper part of the hot peeler blades are in contact. Here, the latch can securely lock the top cover to the base, preventing the top cover from accidentally opening during the hot peeling operation and ensuring operational safety.

[0009] Preferably, the power interface uses DC power and has a 5.0 interface specification, with a wide voltage range of 12-16V, and can be powered by battery or adapter. Here, the DC power interface uses a 5.0 interface specification, which offers strong versatility and allows for easy connection to various common power supply devices.

[0010] Ideally, the small heating plate has a power of around 5W and a temperature of around 80℃. Here, the small heating plate with a power of around 5W and a temperature of around 80℃ can preheat the optical fiber at the initial stage of equipment startup, softening the optical fiber coating and preparing it for the subsequent efficient heating and thermal stripping operation of the large heating plate.

[0011] Preferably, the switch is electrically connected to the large heating plate, the small heating plate, and the indicator light.

[0012] Preferably, the large heating plate is a widened heating plate with an effective heating area of ​​33×18mm, capable of simultaneously stripping up to 70 bare optical fibers and 20 0.9mm bundled optical fibers. Here, the large heating plate adopts a widened design with an effective heating area of ​​33×18mm. The large heating plate is triggered when the hot stripper blades close, and its power is approximately 30W, with a temperature exceeding 100℃. Alternatively, the large heating plate is triggered when the top cover closes and the hot stripper blades close, with a power of approximately 30W and a temperature exceeding 100℃. This trigger-based heating design ensures that high-power heating is only activated during actual hot stripping operations, avoiding unnecessary energy consumption.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. In this invention, a collaborative working mode of large and small heating plates is adopted. The small heating plate preheats and softens the optical fiber at approximately 80°C with a power of 5W, while the large heating plate rapidly heats up to over 100°C after the trigger switch on the upper cover is closed, achieving efficient double-sided heating and quickly softening the optical fiber coating. Combined with precisely contacting upper and lower blades, uniform cutting along the circumference is achieved, ensuring stripping quality. Simultaneously, the large heating plate employs a trigger-based working mechanism, activating its 30W high power only during actual heat stripping, while the small heating plate preheats with low power consumption, effectively reducing energy consumption. This improves work efficiency and extends the equipment's lifespan, achieving a dual optimization of energy saving and performance.

[0014] 2. This utility model features a compact and user-friendly design with a motherboard-less structure, simplifying the internal structure and making it small in size, easy to carry and operate. A spring provides assistance and cushioning when the top cover opens and closes, ensuring smooth and easy operation; the latch securely locks the top cover and base, preventing accidental opening, ensuring operational safety, and improving continuity and convenience. For power supply, the power interface uses DC power, with a 5.0 specification for strong versatility, supporting a wide voltage range of 12-16V. It can be powered by batteries or an adapter, allowing for flexible adaptation to different environments, such as in the field where mains power is available, and also using batteries in situations without mains power, meeting diverse needs for fiber optic thermal stripping operations.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0018] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0019] Example 1 Please see Figures 1-7 This utility model provides a technical solution: a small fiber optic thermal stripper without a motherboard design, including a base 1, a shaft 6 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the base 1, a top cover 7 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the shaft 6, an indicator light 2 and a baffle 3 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the top cover 7, a power interface 4 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the base 1, a spring 5 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the base 1, a switch 8 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the base 1, a silicone pressure plate 9 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base 1, a silicone pressure pad 10 and a thermal stripper blade 11 fixedly installed on the lower surface of the top cover 7, and a latch 12 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the base 1.

[0020] A heating plate pressure plate 13 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 1. A large heating plate 14 is fixedly installed on the side of the top of the base 1 away from the heating plate pressure plate 13. A heat stripper blade 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the base 1. A small heating plate 16 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the upper cover 7. A heat insulation block 17 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the base 1. Here, the heating plate pressure plate 13 can firmly fix the heating plate, ensuring its stable position and uniform heating effect during operation. The large heating plate 14 and the small heating plate 16 are respectively set on the base 1 and the upper cover 7, which can realize double-sided heating of the optical fiber, improve heating efficiency and uniformity, and make the optical fiber coating layer soften more quickly and fully, which is convenient for subsequent stripping. The heat stripper blade 15 is in contact with the heat stripper blade 11. In the softened state of the heated optical fiber coating layer, it can be precisely and cleanly stripped, ensuring the stripping quality. The installation of heat insulation block 17 effectively prevents the disorderly conduction of heat inside the equipment, reduces the thermal impact on other components, extends the service life of the equipment, reduces heat loss to the outside, improves energy efficiency, and prevents operators from being accidentally burned, thus improving safety.

[0021] The inner wall of the spring 5, away from the base 1, is fixedly installed to the inner wall of the top cover 7. Here, the spring 5 connects the base 1 and the top cover 7, providing automatic assistance during the opening and closing of the top cover 7. When opening, the spring 5's elastic force assists the top cover 7 to spring up quickly, saving the operator's effort; when closing, the spring 5's cushioning effect makes the closing action of the top cover 7 smoother, avoiding damage to the thermal stripper blade or unnecessary damage to the optical fiber due to excessive force. It also improves the continuity and convenience of operation, making the entire operation process smoother.

[0022] The outer wall of the latch 12, away from the base 1, engages with the outer wall of the upper cover 7, and the lower 15 and upper 11 of the thermal stripper blades are in contact. Here, the latch 12 securely locks the upper cover 7 to the base 1, preventing the upper cover 7 from accidentally opening during the thermal stripping operation and ensuring operational safety. The precise contact between the lower 15 and upper 11 of the thermal stripper blades allows for precise cutting of the coating layer along the circumference of the fiber during thermal stripping, ensuring uniform cutting depth and avoiding fiber damage due to uneven cutting. This achieves high-quality fiber coating removal, providing a good foundation for subsequent fiber connection, fusion splicing, and other operations.

[0023] Power interface 4 uses DC power with a 5.0 interface specification and a wide voltage range of 12-16V. It can be powered by battery or adapter. The DC power interface 5.0 specification provides strong versatility, allowing easy connection to various common power supply devices. The wide 12-16V voltage design allows it to adapt to adapters with different voltage outputs, as well as battery power, meeting the needs of different working environments. For example, in field operations without mains power, battery power can be used to ensure normal operation of the equipment, greatly improving its applicability and flexibility.

[0024] The small heating plate 16 has a power of approximately 5W and a temperature of approximately 80℃. Here, the small heating plate 16, with a power of approximately 5W and a temperature of approximately 80℃, can preheat the optical fiber at the initial stage of equipment startup, softening the fiber coating and preparing it for the subsequent efficient heating and thermal stripping operation of the large heating plate 14. The lower power setting effectively reduces energy consumption while meeting preheating requirements, saving energy and avoiding energy waste and equipment overheating caused by prolonged high-power preheating, thus extending the continuous operating time and service life of the equipment.

[0025] Switch 8 is electrically connected to the large heating plate 14, the small heating plate 16, and the indicator light 2. The large heating plate 14 is triggered when the heat stripper blade 11 closes. The power of the large heating plate 14 is approximately 30W, and the temperature can reach over 100℃. Alternatively, the large heating plate 14 is triggered when the upper cover 7 closes and the heat stripper blade 11 closes, with a power of approximately 30W and a temperature exceeding 100℃. This trigger-type heating design only activates high-power heating during actual heat stripping operations, avoiding unnecessary energy consumption. The higher power and temperature quickly soften the fiber coating, reaching the optimal heat stripping state in a short time, greatly improving the efficiency of fiber heat stripping and reducing the time required for heat stripping a single fiber. It is particularly suitable for batch fiber heat stripping operations, significantly improving work efficiency.

[0026] The large heating plate 14 is a widened heating plate with an effective heating area of ​​33×18mm, capable of simultaneously stripping up to 70 bare optical fibers and 20 0.9mm bundled optical fibers. The widened design of the large heating plate 14, with an effective heating area of ​​33×18mm, ensures that multiple optical fibers are fully covered, guaranteeing uniform and effective heating for each fiber. This enables efficient batch thermal stripping operations, significantly improving work efficiency, reducing time costs and human error associated with multiple operations, and meeting the demands for efficient thermal stripping in large-scale optical fiber construction and production scenarios.

[0027] Working Principle: Connect the adapter to the power interface 4 of the device. The small heating plate 16 will then operate continuously at approximately 5W and 80℃ to preheat the optical fiber. Close the top cover 7, triggering switch 8, and the large heating plate 14 will begin operation. Keep the top cover 7 closed for approximately 15 seconds to allow the large heating plate 14 to reach its operating temperature (approximately 30W, temperature exceeding 100℃), completing the preheating process. During preheating, the small heating plate 16 and the large heating plate 14 work together. The small heating plate 16 first softens the optical fiber coating, while the large heating plate 14 provides further efficient heating, ensuring optimal heat stripping temperatures. Placing the optical fiber for heat stripping: Open the top cover 7 (spring 5 provides assistance for easy opening). Place the optical fiber with the coating to be stripped smoothly on the effective heating area (33×18mm) of the large heating plate 14, ensuring the fiber is centered for even heating. For batch operations, up to 70 bare optical fibers or 20 bundled 0.9mm optical fibers can be placed simultaneously. Gently close the top cover 7 (spring 5 acts as a buffer to ensure a smooth closing action). During the closing process of the top cover 7, switch 8 is triggered again, and the large heating plate 14 restarts its operation to heat the optical fiber. This process lasts for approximately 5 seconds, allowing the optical fiber coating to soften sufficiently. During this process, the double-sided heating design of the large heating plate 14 and the small heating plate 16 ensures that the optical fiber coating is heated evenly to achieve the optimal softening state. After the 5-second heating time ends, release the top cover 7, which will automatically spring back up using the spring force of spring 5. Then, carefully pull out the optical fiber. At this point, the lower 15 and upper 11 of the thermal stripper blades will precisely strip away the softened optical fiber coating, completing the optical fiber thermal stripping operation. After completing all optical fiber thermal stripping operations, disconnect the power supply connected to the power interface 4.

Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
