Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical fiber and cable processing technology, and more specifically, to an embossing device for optical fiber and cable. Background Technology

[0002] Optical fiber cable is a communication cable with glass or plastic optical fiber as the core material. It consists of fiber core, cladding and protective sleeve. It transmits optical signals through the principle of total internal reflection. During the production process of optical fiber cable, markings are imprinted on its surface.

[0003] A search revealed a utility model patent with publication number CN221605395U, which discloses an imprinting device for optical fiber cables. The device includes a worktable with a conductor platform fixed to its upper surface. Multiple conductor grooves are formed on the upper surface of the conductor platform, and an optical cable body is fitted into the inner cavity of each conductor groove. A heating assembly is installed on the upper surface of the conductor grooves, and an imprinting assembly is installed on the upper surface of the worktable. The heating assembly includes a support plate fixed to the upper surface of the conductor grooves, a heating box installed on the upper surface of the support plate, and a heating tube installed on the lower surface of the heating box. The imprinting assembly includes a lower groove fixed to the upper surface of the worktable. In this patent, the heating tube on the conductor platform can heat the outer layer of the optical cable, softening it and improving the clarity of the imprint. Furthermore, the multiple conductor grooves on the conductor platform allow multiple optical cables to be fed into the imprinting rollers simultaneously, improving work efficiency. The imprinting rollers are easily disassembled and replaced, facilitating the replacement of different imprinting rollers later.

[0004] However, the above patent still has the following shortcomings: the inner diameter of the conductor groove is fixed, which can only limit the delivery of optical fiber cables with a specific outer diameter, resulting in poor practicality. In addition, it is not convenient to clean the surface of the optical cable to be imprinted, and the dust on the surface of the optical cable will affect the imprinting effect. Therefore, we have proposed an imprinting device for optical fiber cables. Utility Model Content

[0028] It should be noted that this utility model is an imprinting device for optical fiber cables. In use, firstly, the first reduction motor 6 is started to drive one conveyor rod 4 and one synchronous pulley 7 to rotate clockwise.
