Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a fiber breakage treatment device, and more particularly to a fiber breakage treatment device for a fiber drawing tower, belonging to the field of optical fiber manufacturing technology. Background Technology

[0002] Fiber breakage is a common production failure during the production of fiber optic drawing towers. Currently, existing methods for handling fiber breakage during drawing tower production have many shortcomings. Specifically: after a fiber breakage occurs, the precast rod position is raised to lower the furnace temperature according to production process requirements. An alarm is displayed on the screen to alert operators to manual intervention, while the main traction speed remains high. Upon arrival, on-site operators must manually and gradually reduce the main traction speed while ensuring the fiber remains unbroken, then handle the scattered fibers on the ground. After handling, the speed is manually increased again to resume production. From the time the fiber breakage occurs until the operator arrives and completes part of the operation, a considerable amount of fiber is scattered on the ground. Scattered light is difficult to handle; breakage is likely during collection, posing a risk of injury to operators, and broken fibers embedded in the skin are extremely difficult to remove. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a fiber breakage treatment device for wire drawing towers, so as to realize the automatic treatment of fiber breakage.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A fiber breakage treatment device for a fiber drawing tower includes a shell, a spiral fiber inlet, an inner cylinder, an outer cylinder, an air pump, and a horizontal moving mechanism. The outer cylinder is located outside the inner cylinder. An air extraction port is opened at the center of the bottom surface of the inner cylinder and is connected to the air pump. A fiber breakage inlet is opened at the upper end of the side of the shell. The spiral fiber inlet is located between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder, and the upper end of the spiral fiber inlet is connected to the fiber breakage inlet of the shell. The lower end of the shell is mounted on the horizontal moving mechanism and is driven by the horizontal moving mechanism to move back and forth in the horizontal direction.

[0005] Furthermore, both the inner and outer cylindrical bodies are open-top cylindrical bodies. The outer cylindrical body is coaxial with the inner cylindrical body, and the bottom of the outer cylindrical body coincides with the bottom of the inner cylindrical body. A gap is left between the bottom of the outer and inner cylindrical bodies and the bottom of the shell.

[0010] Furthermore, the inner cylindrical body and the outer cylindrical body are fixedly connected, the spiral fiber inlet is detachably disposed in the gap between the inner cylindrical body and the outer cylindrical body, and the outer cylindrical body is detachably disposed in the housing.

[0011] Furthermore, the horizontal moving mechanism includes a lead screw, a lead screw support, a lead screw motor, two slide rails, and a nut. The two ends of the lead screw are rotatably mounted on the lead screw support, and one end of the lead screw is connected to the lead screw motor and driven to rotate by the lead screw motor.

[0017] To elaborate on the technical solutions adopted by this utility model to achieve the intended technical objectives, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Furthermore, the technical means or technical features in the embodiments of this utility model can be replaced without creative effort. The utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0018] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the present invention provides a fiber breakage treatment device for a fiber drawing tower, comprising a housing 1, a spiral fiber inlet, an inner cylindrical body 2, an outer cylindrical body 3, an air pump 4, and a horizontal moving mechanism. The outer cylindrical body 3 is disposed outside the inner cylindrical body 2. An air extraction port is opened at the center of the bottom surface of the inner cylindrical body 2 and is connected to the air pump 4. A fiber breakage inlet 5 is opened at the upper end of the side of the housing 1. The spiral fiber inlet is disposed between the inner cylindrical body 2 and the outer cylindrical body 3 and the upper end of the spiral fiber inlet is connected to the fiber breakage inlet 5 of the housing 1. The lower end of the housing 1 is disposed on the horizontal moving mechanism and is driven by the horizontal moving mechanism to move back and forth in the horizontal direction.

[0019] Both the inner cylindrical body 2 and the outer cylindrical body 3 are open cylindrical bodies. The outer cylindrical body 3 is coaxially arranged with the inner cylindrical body 2 and the bottom of the outer cylindrical body 3 coincides with the bottom of the inner cylindrical body 2. There is a gap between the bottom of the outer cylindrical body 3 and the inner cylindrical body 2 and the bottom of the shell 1.

[0020] The air extraction port is connected to the air pump 4 via an air extraction pipe 6. One end of the air extraction pipe 6 connected to the air extraction port has a gradually decreasing cross-section, and the other end of the air extraction pipe 6 is connected to one end of the air pump 4. The other end of the air pump 4 is connected to the air outlet on the side of the housing 1 via an air outlet pipe. The air pump 4, the air extraction pipe 6, and the air outlet pipe are all located in the gap between the bottom of the outer cylinder 3 and the bottom of the housing 1. By drawing air out of the housing 1 through the air pump 4, a negative pressure is created inside the inner cylinder 2 and the outer cylinder 3, thereby creating an inward suction force at the inlet of the spiral fiber inlet, allowing broken fibers from the outside to be automatically adsorbed and collected inside the housing 1.

[0021] The inner cylindrical body 2 is equipped with breathable filter packing. The packing can improve the suction in the lower end air extraction pipe 6 on the one hand, and filter the extracted air on the other hand, so that the adsorbed dust, broken fiber debris and other particles are filtered and adsorbed, avoiding the blockage of the air extraction pipe 6 and affecting the service life of the equipment.

[0022] The spiral fiber inlet includes a trumpet-shaped inlet 7 and a spiral pipe 8. One end of the trumpet-shaped inlet 7 matches the shape of the fiber breakage inlet 5 on the side of the shell 1 and is connected to the fiber breakage inlet 5. The other end of the trumpet-shaped inlet 7 matches the shape of the upper end of the spiral pipe 8 and is connected to the upper end of the spiral pipe 8. The cross-sectional area of ​​the upper end of the spiral pipe 8 is smaller than the area of ​​the fiber breakage inlet 5 on the side of the shell 1. The cross-sectional area of ​​the trumpet-shaped inlet 7 gradually decreases from one end to the other. The spiral pipe 8 has a spiral structure and spirals downward in the vertical direction with a constant diameter. The cross-sectional area of ​​the spiral pipe 8 gradually decreases from the upper end to the lower end until it is the same as the area of ​​the lower end outlet of the spiral pipe 8. The lower end outlet of the spiral pipe 8 is lower than the upper end of the inner cylinder 2, which can effectively prevent fiber breakage from entering the inner cylinder 2.

[0023] The upper cover of housing 1 is a detachable cover, with one side of the cover hinged to the upper edge of housing 1.

[0024] The inner cylindrical body 2 and the outer cylindrical body 3 are fixedly connected. The spiral fiber inlet is detachably installed in the gap between the inner cylindrical body 2 and the outer cylindrical body 3. The outer cylindrical body 3 is detachably installed inside the housing 1. After the broken fibers are collected, the cover plate of the housing 1 can be opened, and then the inner cylindrical body 2, the outer cylindrical body 3, and the spiral fiber inlet can be lifted out of the housing 1 as a whole. Then, the spiral fiber inlet can be disassembled to transfer the collected broken fibers for processing.

[0025] The horizontal moving mechanism includes a lead screw 9, a lead screw support 10, a lead screw motor 11, two slide rails 12, and a nut 13. The two ends of the lead screw 9 are rotatably mounted on the lead screw support 10. One end of the lead screw 9 is connected to the lead screw motor 11 and is driven to rotate by the lead screw motor 11. The two slide rails 12 are parallel to the lead screw 9 and are arranged on both sides of the lead screw 9. The two ends of the two slide rails 12 are respectively fixed on the lead screw support 10. The nut 13 is sleeved on the lead screw 9 and threadedly connected to the lead screw 9. The nut 13 is fixed on the lower side of the housing 1. The lower side of the housing 1 is slidably mounted on the two slide rails 12. The lead screw motor 11 drives the lead screw 9 to rotate, and through the transmission of the nut 13, it drives the housing 1 to move back and forth along the length of the slide rail 12. Under normal production conditions, the housing 1 slides to the left to the original fiber position. When a fiber breaks, the water surface moving mechanism drives the housing 1 to slide to the right to the fiber. At this time, under the negative pressure adsorption of the fiber breakage inlet 5 of the housing 1, the fiber breakage is adsorbed into the spiral fiber inlet inside the housing and spirals downward along the spiral line, so that the fiber breakage is finally coiled and collected in the gap between the inner and outer cylinders.

[0026] This utility model discloses a fiber breakage treatment device for a wire drawing tower. It automatically adsorbs broken fibers through vacuum negative pressure and automatically collects them by spiral structure channeling the broken fibers into the treatment device. No manual collection is required, and the fiber breakage is treated in a timely manner without causing injury to the operator.

[0027] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model's technical solution. Any simple modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made to the above embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model's technical solution, based on the technical essence of the present utility model and within the spirit and principles of the present utility model, shall still fall within the protection scope of the present utility model's technical solution.
