[0018] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The preferred embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0019] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, this utility model provides a specific embodiment of a fiber-threading dispensing system.
[0020] A fiber-threading dispensing system, reference Figures 1 to 5 The fiber-threading and dispensing system includes an operating table 10, multiple fiber-threading and dispensing devices 20, and a slide transfer device 30. The operating table 10 is provided with a slide placement area 11, which is arranged side by side with the multiple fiber-threading and dispensing devices 20 on the operating table 10. The slide transfer device 30 is arranged across the slide placement area 11 and the multiple fiber-threading and dispensing devices 20. The fiber-threading and dispensing device 20 includes a moving mechanism 100, a fiber-threading mechanism 200, an image detection mechanism 300, and a dispensing mechanism 400. The moving mechanism 100 is arranged on the operating table 10, the fiber-threading mechanism 200 is arranged on the moving mechanism 100, and the image detection mechanism 300 and the dispensing mechanism 400 are both arranged on the moving path of the moving mechanism 100.
[0021] The moving mechanism 100 can move the fiber threading mechanism 200 to the image detection mechanism 300 to perform alignment and fiber threading of the AOC line fiber b and lens a, and move the fiber threading mechanism 200 to the dispensing mechanism 400 to perform dispensing. The slide transfer device 30 can move laterally relative to the operating table 10 to pick up the slides in the slide placement area 11 and transfer them to the lenses a on each fiber threading mechanism 200.
[0022] Specifically, the operating table 10 is the basic load-bearing component of the entire fiber threading and dispensing system, providing a stable installation and working platform for all other mechanisms within the system. The operating table 10 has clearly defined functional areas, namely, a slide placement area 11, which is used to centrally store slides to be transferred, ensuring the convenience and orderliness of slide retrieval. At the same time, through a reasonable structural design, the operating table 10 ensures that the slide placement area 11 and multiple fiber threading and dispensing devices 20 can be arranged side by side, providing space for the subsequent lateral movement of the slide transfer device 30 to place slides for the multiple fiber threading mechanisms 200.
[0023] The fiber threading and dispensing device 20 is a key unit in the system for realizing the two processes of fiber threading and dispensing. Each fiber threading and dispensing device 20 includes a moving mechanism 100, a fiber threading mechanism 200, an image detection mechanism 300, and a dispensing mechanism 400.
[0024] Among them, the moving mechanism 100, as the "transporter" of the fiber threading mechanism 200, is set on the operating table 10. Its core function is to drive the fiber threading mechanism 200 to move precisely on the preset moving path. Through precise drive control, the fiber threading mechanism 200 can be accurately delivered to the image detection mechanism 300 for alignment and fiber threading. After completion, it is moved to the dispensing mechanism 400 for dispensing operation. It is the power and positioning guarantee for realizing the connection between the fiber threading and dispensing processes.
[0025] The fiber threading mechanism 200 is mainly responsible for clamping and fixing the AOC line fiber b and the lens a. It is the execution component that completes the alignment and threading of the AOC line fiber b and the lens a. Driven by the moving mechanism 100, the fiber threading mechanism 200 can cooperate with the image detection mechanism 300 to achieve high-precision alignment of the AOC line fiber b and the lens a and complete the threading action, laying the foundation for subsequent glue dispensing and fixing.
[0026] The image detection mechanism 300 performs high-precision alignment detection. When the moving mechanism 100 moves the fiber threading mechanism 200 to the image detection mechanism 300, the image detection mechanism 300 uses image acquisition and processing technology to capture the relative position information of the AOC line fiber b and lens a in real time, and feeds the position data back to the external control system. This ensures that the fiber threading mechanism 200 can make precise adjustments based on the feedback information, achieving accurate alignment of fiber b and lens a, and avoiding product quality problems caused by alignment deviation.
[0027] The dispensing mechanism 400 is used to perform dispensing operations at the junction of the fiber b and lens a of the AOC line after fiber threading. When the fiber threading mechanism 200 reaches its working position driven by the moving mechanism 100, the dispensing mechanism 400 can accurately apply the glue to the junction according to the preset dispensing amount and position. The solidification of the glue achieves a firm connection between the fiber b and lens a, ensuring the structural stability and optical performance of the product.
[0028] The slide transfer device 30 is a key component for realizing automatic slide transfer. It is positioned across the slide placement area 11 and multiple fiber threading and dispensing devices 20, and has the ability to move laterally relative to the operating table 10. It is used to pick up slides from the slide placement area 11 and accurately transfer the slides to the lenses a on each fiber threading mechanism 200 during the lateral movement, thus completing the slide assembly process. The slide transfer device 30 realizes the automation of slide transfer, avoids the errors and inefficiencies of manual operation, and ensures the accuracy and consistency of slide assembly.
[0029] refer to Figures 1 to 3 The workflow of the fiber-threading dispensing system is as follows: 1. Initial preparation stage: Install the AOC fiber b to be processed on the fiber threading mechanism 200, and fix the lens a in the corresponding position of the fiber threading mechanism 200. At the same time, place a sufficient number of glass slides to be transferred in the glass slide placement area 11 of the operating table 10. The system completes the initial calibration.
[0030] 2. Alignment and Fiber Insertion Stage: The moving mechanism 100 drives the fiber insertion mechanism 200 to move along a preset path to the image detection mechanism 300. The image detection mechanism 300 acquires the position images of the AOC line fiber b and the lens a. After processing, the alignment deviation data is fed back to the external system. The external system drives the fiber insertion mechanism 200 to make fine adjustments based on the feedback data to achieve high-precision alignment between the fiber b and the lens a. After alignment is completed, the fiber insertion mechanism 200 performs the fiber insertion action to insert the AOC line fiber b into the corresponding insertion hole of the lens a.
[0031] 3. Dispensing stage: After the fiber threading is completed, the moving mechanism 100 is restarted, which drives the fiber threading mechanism 200, which has completed the fiber threading, to the dispensing mechanism 400. The dispensing mechanism 400 performs precise dispensing at the joint of the optical fiber b and the lens a according to the preset parameters. After the dispensing is completed, wait for the glue to initially cure.
[0032] 4. Slide Transfer Stage: While the fiber-threading dispensing device 20 is performing the dispensing operation, or after the dispensing is completed, the slide transfer device 30 is activated and moves along the lateral path to the slide placement area 11 to pick up a slide. Subsequently, the slide transfer device 30 continues to move laterally to the fiber-threading mechanism 200, which has completed the dispensing, and accurately transfers the picked-up slide into the lens a on the fiber-threading mechanism 200, thus completing the slide assembly.
[0033] 5. Cyclic Work Phase: After one of the fiber threading and dispensing devices 20 completes all processes, the moving mechanism 100 drives it to reset. At the same time, the slide transfer device 30 returns to the slide placement area 11, picks up another slide, and moves laterally to the next fiber threading and dispensing device 20 that has completed dispensing, so as to place the slide for the next fiber threading and dispensing device 20, which greatly improves the overall production efficiency.
[0034] In this embodiment, the fiber threading and dispensing system includes an operating table 10, multiple fiber threading and dispensing devices 20, and a slide transfer device 30. Through the coordinated and automated operation of the slide transfer device 30 with the moving mechanism 100, fiber threading mechanism 200, image detection mechanism 300, and dispensing mechanism 400 in the fiber threading and dispensing device 20, the processes of fiber threading, dispensing, and slide transfer are integrated into one, realizing fully automated operation from fiber threading and dispensing to slide transfer. On the one hand, it reduces reliance on manual labor and lowers the intensity of manual operation; on the other hand, it avoids product scrapping due to human error, further reducing production costs. Furthermore, by arranging multiple fiber threading and dispensing devices 20 side by side, parallel or automated production can be achieved, avoiding the tedious switching and waiting time of manual operation, significantly increasing the product processing quantity per unit time, and meeting the needs of mass production.
[0035] In one embodiment, reference Figures 3 to 5 The fiber threading mechanism 200 includes a base 210, an AOC line fixing assembly 220, a lens fixing member 230, and a first adjustment assembly 240. The base 210 is mounted on the moving mechanism 100. The lens fixing member 230 and the AOC line fixing assembly are respectively mounted at both ends of the base 210 to fix the lens a and the optical fiber b in the AOC line, respectively. The first adjustment assembly 240 is mounted on the base 210 and connected to the AOC line fixing assembly. The first adjustment assembly 240 can drive the AOC line fixing assembly to move relative to the lens fixing member 230 to drive the optical fiber b to be inserted into the lens a.
[0036] The AOC line, serving as the signal transmission carrier of the active optical cable, comprises multiple optical fibers b. Lens a has multiple insertion holes for inserting the optical fibers b. The multiple optical fibers b operate in parallel to achieve high-bandwidth data transmission, meeting the demands of high-density, high-speed signal transmission. Lens a uses these insertion holes to precisely position and couple the multiple optical fibers b, ensuring the alignment accuracy between the end face of the optical fiber b and the optical surface of lens a. This achieves synchronous optical matching of the multiple optical fibers b, reducing signal attenuation and improving the transmission stability of the multi-core optical cable.
[0037] The base 210 serves as the mounting foundation for the fiber threading mechanism 200 and is mounted on the moving mechanism 100, providing a stable assembly carrier for the AOC line fixing assembly 220, lens fixing component 230, and first adjustment assembly 240. Its structural design ensures the relative positional accuracy between the components, and it moves synchronously with the moving mechanism 100, ensuring that the entire fiber threading mechanism 200 can accurately reach the working positions of the image detection mechanism 300 and the dispensing mechanism 400.
[0038] The AOC line fixing component 220 is used to fix the optical fiber b in the AOC line, ensuring that the position of the optical fiber b is stable during the fiber threading process and avoiding alignment deviation caused by the shaking of the optical fiber b. The AOC line fixing component 220 can adopt a flexible clamping method, which requires a certain degree of flexibility and stability, so as to firmly fix the optical fiber b without damaging the optical fiber b and ensuring that the optical performance of the optical fiber b is not affected.
[0039] Lens fixing component 230 and AOC line fixing component 220 are respectively set at both ends of base 210 to fix lens a. Through precise positioning structure design, it ensures that lens a is in the preset reference position during fiber threading, providing accurate target positioning for fiber b insertion. It is one of the basic components to achieve high-precision alignment between fiber b and lens a.
[0040] The first adjustment component 240 is mounted on the base 210 and connected to the AOC line fixing component. It is the power actuator for inserting the optical fiber b into the lens a. It can drive the AOC line fixing component to move precisely relative to the lens fixing component 230. By controlling the distance and speed of movement, the optical fiber b is smoothly and accurately inserted into the insertion hole of the lens a, thus completing the fiber insertion action.
[0041] The working process of the fiber threading mechanism 200 is as follows: 1. The optical fiber b in the AOC line is fixed in the AOC line fixing assembly 220 in advance, and the lens a is fixed on the lens fixing member 230 to complete the initial clamping.
[0042] 2. After the fiber threading mechanism 200 arrives at the image detection mechanism 300 along with the moving mechanism 100, the image detection mechanism 300 acquires the relative position image of the optical fiber b and the lens a, and feeds back the alignment deviation data to the external control system. The external control system controls the first adjustment component 240 to start according to the deviation data. The first adjustment component 240 drives the AOC line fixing component to make fine adjustments relative to the lens fixing component 230 until the image detection mechanism 300 detects that the optical fiber b and the lens a have achieved high-precision alignment.
[0043] 3. After alignment, the first adjustment component 240 continues to move the AOC line fixing component toward the lens fixing component 230, and slowly and smoothly inserts the optical fiber b into the lens a, completing the fiber threading process.
[0044] In this embodiment, the base 210 ensures the relative position stability of each component. Combined with the precise drive of the first adjustment component 240, it enables micro-adjustment between the AOC line fixing component 220 and the lens fixing component 230. With the feedback from the image detection mechanism 300, the alignment accuracy between the optical fiber b and the lens a is further improved, reducing fiber threading errors. The first adjustment component 240 can precisely control the moving speed and distance of the AOC line fixing component, so that the optical fiber b is inserted into the lens a in a stable posture, avoiding problems such as bending of the optical fiber b and collision of the lens a caused by manual operation or rapid movement, thus reducing the product damage rate.
[0045] In one embodiment, reference Figures 1 to 7 The slide transfer device 30 includes a support 31 and a slide transfer mechanism 500. The support 31 is horizontally arranged above the slide placement area 11 and multiple moving mechanisms 100. The slide transfer mechanism 500 is movably arranged on the support 31. The slide transfer mechanism 500 includes a first moving component 510, a second moving component 520, and an adsorption component 530. The first moving component 510 is connected to the second moving component 520 to drive the second moving component 520 to move along the support 31. The second moving component 520 is connected to the adsorption component 530 to drive the adsorption component 530 to move along the Z-axis.
[0046] Specifically, refer to Figures 1 to 7 The top of lens a has mounting grooves a1 corresponding to multiple insertion holes for mounting glass slides. Mounting grooves a1 penetrate multiple insertion holes and serve as the mounting and positioning reference for the glass slides. They can be set as stepped structures to achieve rapid positioning of the glass slides and ensure that the glass slides accurately cover all insertion holes. The groove depth matches the thickness of the glass slides. The surface of the glass slides is coated with an anti-reflection film that matches the working wavelength of the AOC line. The edges of the glass slides can be set as positioning holes or beveled corresponding to mounting grooves a1. The anti-reflection film on the glass slides can reduce the reflection loss of optical signals and improve the multi-core optical coupling efficiency. As a protective barrier, it can also prevent dust and moisture from entering the insertion holes and protect the end face of fiber b and the optical surface of lens a.
[0047] The bracket 31 serves as the installation and moving track foundation for the slide transfer mechanism 500. It is horizontally erected above the slide placement area 11 and multiple moving mechanisms 100, providing stable lateral movement support for the slide transfer mechanism 500. This ensures that the slide transfer mechanism 500 can move smoothly along the preset lateral path, providing spatial guarantee for cross-regional slide transfer.
[0048] The first moving component 510 cooperates with the bracket 31 and is connected to the second moving component 520. Its core function is to drive the second moving component 520 and the suction component 530 to move laterally along the bracket 31 to achieve high-precision positioning along the bracket 31, ensuring that the suction component 530 can accurately move to the target position above the slide placement area 11 and above each fiber threading mechanism 200. The second moving component 520 connects the first moving component 510 and the suction component 530, and is responsible for driving the suction component 530 to move along the Z-axis (perpendicular to the plane of the operating table 10) to realize the lifting and lowering action of the suction component 530, which meets the action requirements of moving downward when picking up the slide, lifting it upward after picking it up, and placing it downward when transplanting. It is the key power component for completing the vertical operation of "picking up-lifting-putting down" of the slide.
[0049] As a component that comes into direct contact with the glass slide, the adsorption component 530 picks up the glass slide through negative pressure adsorption and other methods. Its adsorption surface design must match the shape of the glass slide to ensure that the glass slide is not easily detached, deformed or damaged during the picking and transfer process. At the same time, it has the function of rapid adsorption and release to ensure the efficiency and safety of glass slide transfer.
[0050] In one embodiment, reference Figures 1 to 7 The slide transfer mechanism 500 also includes a visual positioning component 540, which is disposed on the first moving component 510 for obtaining the position of the slide.
[0051] Specifically, the visual positioning component 540 is mounted on the first moving component 510 to acquire slide position information. It captures slide images of the slide placement area 11 in real time using image acquisition technology to identify the actual position coordinates of the slide and feeds the position data back to the external control system, providing a positioning basis for the precise movement of the first moving component 510 and the second moving component 520.
[0052] In one embodiment, reference Figures 1 to 9 The fiber-threading dispensing system also includes a curing mechanism 600, which is located on the moving path of the moving platform for post-dispensing curing.
[0053] Specifically, the curing mechanism 600 is a key component in the fiber-threading dispensing system that ensures stable curing of the adhesive. Its core function is to act on the dispensed adhesive with specific energy forms (such as UV light, thermal radiation, etc.) to enable it to quickly complete a physical or chemical curing reaction, thereby firmly bonding the optical fiber b to the lens a and the glass slide to the mounting groove a1. By precisely controlling the curing conditions, it ensures that the adhesive is fully cured, forming a high-strength adhesive layer, avoiding problems such as loosening of the optical fiber b and detachment of the glass slide due to incomplete curing, and improving the mechanical stability of the product.
[0054] In one embodiment, reference Figures 1 to 4The fiber threading mechanism 200 also includes a second adjustment component 250, which is disposed in the base 210 and connected to the lens fixing member 230.
[0055] Specifically, the second adjustment component 250 is disposed in the base 210 of the fiber threading mechanism 200 and is directly connected to the lens fixing component 230. It can adopt a multi-axis precision drive structure. It is mainly used to drive the lens fixing component 230 to make fine position and attitude adjustments. It can independently or in conjunction with the first adjustment component 240 to realize bidirectional alignment of the fiber b and the lens a insertion hole, thus making up for the alignment limitations of a single adjustment component.
[0056] Through the bidirectional coordinated adjustment of the first adjustment component 240 and the second adjustment component 250, the alignment error of the insertion hole of the fiber b and the lens a can be controlled within a more precise range. Compared with a single adjustment component, its alignment accuracy is higher, effectively reducing optical coupling loss caused by alignment deviation. Furthermore, when there is a slight deviation in the insertion hole of the multi-core fiber b array or the lens a, the second adjustment component 250 can compensate through attitude fine-tuning, resulting in a higher fiber threading success rate and effectively reducing material loss caused by fiber threading failure. Moreover, the bidirectional adjustment design allows the system to adapt to different core pitches and different specifications of fiber b and lens a combinations, eliminating the need for frequent fixture changes. Product switching can be completed simply by adjusting the component parameters, enhancing the system's flexible production capabilities.
[0057] In one embodiment, reference Figures 1 to 10 The AOC line fixing assembly 220 includes a line-following fixture 221 and a fixture fixing plate 222. The fixture fixing plate 222 is disposed on the first adjustment assembly 240, and the line-following fixture 221 is disposed on the fixture fixing plate 222. The line-following fixture 221 is provided with a receiving groove and multiple clearance holes. The AOC line is disposed in the receiving groove, and the optical fiber b on the AOC line passes through the clearance holes and is partially exposed outside the line-following fixture 221.
[0058] Specifically, the cable-following fixture 221, as the direct carrier component of the AOC cable, can be precision injection molded from engineering plastics. It has a certain degree of elasticity to avoid damaging the optical fiber b. The cable-following fixture 221 is provided with a receiving groove. The outer contour design of the receiving groove for mounting the AOC cable is used to limit the overall displacement of the AOC cable and ensure the relative position stability between the cable body and the optical fiber b. Multiple clearance holes correspond one-to-one with multiple optical fibers b. The hole diameter is not less than the diameter of the optical fiber b to guide the optical fiber b to extend directionally out of the cable-following fixture 221, so as to avoid multiple optical fibers b from tangling together. At the same time, it provides radial support for the optical fiber b and reduces shaking during fiber threading.
[0059] Furthermore, the fixture fixing plate 222 can be made of aluminum alloy and precision milled to serve as the installation reference for the wire-following fixture 221. The fixture fixing plate 222 is provided with a positioning pin, and the bottom of the wire-following fixture 221 is provided with a positioning hole. The positioning pin can cooperate with the positioning hole to ensure the relative positional accuracy between the wire-following fixture 221 and the lens fixing component 230 after installation. The fixture fixing plate 222 is rigidly connected to the first adjustment component 240, which accurately transmits the displacement of the first adjustment component 240 to the wire-following fixture 221, thereby realizing the fine adjustment of the position of the optical fiber b.
[0060] The AOC line is fixed as a whole by a receiving slot, and the fiber b is partially exposed after being guided by a clearance hole to provide sufficient operating space for fiber threading. At the same time, the clearance hole restricts the radial swing of the fiber b to ensure straightness during fiber threading. During fiber threading, the AOC line is pre-placed in the receiving slot of the accompanying fixture 221, and the end of the fiber b passes through the clearance hole and is cut to a preset length. The accompanying fixture 221 cooperates with the positioning pin of the fixture fixing plate 222 through the positioning hole to achieve quick installation and positioning. The fixture fixing plate 222 is rigidly connected to the first adjustment component 240 to form a rigid transmission chain of "adjustment component-fixing plate-accompanying fixture 221-AOC line". When the first adjustment component 240 is driven, the displacement is synchronously transmitted to the accompanying fixture 221 through the fixture fixing plate 222. The accompanying fixture 221 drives the AOC line to move as a whole, and the fiber b maintains a straight posture under the constraint of the clearance hole and is accurately inserted into the insertion hole of the lens a.
[0061] In one embodiment, reference Figures 1 to 10 The AOC line fixing assembly 220 also includes a clamping member 223, which is disposed on the fixture fixing plate 222 and can rotate relative to the fixture fixing plate 222 to the line-following fixture 221 to clamp the line-following fixture 221.
[0062] Specifically, the clamping component 223 is the core component in the AOC line fixing assembly 220 that enables the rapid clamping and release of the accompanying fixture 221. Through its own structure, it fits against the surface of the accompanying fixture 221 to apply stable pressure, ensuring that the accompanying fixture 221 does not loosen or shift on the fixture fixing plate 222. When the first adjustment component 240 drives the accompanying fixture 221 to move, the clamping component 223 can effectively prevent the accompanying fixture 221 from shaking, thereby improving the positioning accuracy of the optical fiber b. The clamping component 223 can use rubber or silicone material for the contact end face, avoiding hard squeezing damage to the accompanying fixture 221 and AOC line during the clamping process, while buffering the impact of external vibration on the optical fiber b. The clamping component 223 is rotatably connected to the fixture fixing plate 222, and the fixing and replacement of the accompanying fixture 221 can be completed without tools, effectively simplifying the operation process.
