Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of optical cable repair device technology, specifically to an optical cable repair separation identifier. Background Technology

[0002] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance understanding of the overall background of this disclosure and is not necessarily an admission or implication in any way that such information constitutes related technology that is already known to those skilled in the art.

[0003] In related technologies, existing communication equipment is optical fiber communication. Optical fiber has a multi-core structure, and optical fiber breakage maintenance is also crucial. Existing optical fiber maintenance all use manual stripping. However, due to the large number of cores in the optical fiber, the optical fiber is prone to tangling after being stripped, which causes great trouble for subsequent connection and repair and affects the maintenance progress.

[0004] In addition, during nighttime fiber optic cable repair and maintenance, due to the thinness of the optical fibers and insufficient nighttime lighting, it is easy for the fibers to become tangled and difficult to separate, requiring repeated operations. At the same time, the lack of lighting at night makes it easy to misidentify the color of the optical fibers, which increases the repair time, reduces efficiency, and may even lead to incorrect connections. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Therefore, this disclosure provides an optical cable repair separation identifier to solve the problems in related technologies, such as long maintenance cycles and easy identification errors caused by the easy entanglement of optical fibers and insufficient nighttime repair lighting.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the embodiments of this disclosure provide the following technical solutions:

[0007] In a first aspect of the embodiments of this disclosure, an optical cable repair separation identifier is provided, including...

[0008] A stabilizing component includes a fixed shaft mounted on a support frame, a bearing sleeved on the outside of the fixed shaft, and a separation component mounted on the bearing;

[0009] The separation assembly includes ribs that are fixedly and evenly distributed on the outside of the bearing. The ends of the ribs are provided with a wrapping device with an arc-shaped cross-section, and the wrapping device is provided with a plastic cavity.

[0026] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of this disclosure. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this disclosure from the content disclosed in this specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure. Based on the embodiments in this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0027] like Figure 1-4The image shows an optical cable repair separation identifier disclosed in an embodiment of this application. It includes a stabilizing component and a separation component. The stabilizing component includes a fixed shaft 2 mounted on a support frame 1, with a bearing 3 sleeved on the outside of the fixed shaft 2. The separation component is mounted on the bearing 3. The separation component includes ribs 4 fixedly and evenly distributed outside the bearing 3. The ends of the ribs 4 are provided with arc-shaped wrapping devices 5, and the wrapping devices 5 contain a plastic cavity 6. The plastic cavity 6 has a cylindrical structure with a notch 7 on its side. The outer diameter of the plastic cavity 6 is larger than the inner diameter of the wrapping device 5, and it can be installed inside the wrapping device 5.

[0028] The support parts of the support frame are set on both sides of the separation component, which is suitable for maintenance work with fewer optical cable cores. The identifier prevents the optical fibers from getting tangled by the axially arranged optical fiber locking structure, solving the problem of difficult stripping. At the same time, the device has its own light source to improve the lighting intensity, enhance the efficiency of optical fiber color recognition, prevent color recognition errors, and thus improve the overall efficiency of optical cable maintenance.

[0029] In order to provide sufficient lighting during maintenance, the plastic cavity 6 is provided with a thin film 7 coated with fluorescent dye, which divides the plastic cavity 6 into two chambers 9. The two chambers 9 are located on both sides of the notch 7, and hydrogen peroxide and bis(oxalate) diester are respectively provided inside the chambers.

[0030] The outer diameter of the cylindrical plastic cavity 6 is slightly larger than the inner diameter of the wrapping device 5. The bottom surfaces at both ends of the cylindrical plastic cavity 6 have protrusions 10, the outer diameter of which is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the plastic cavity 6. The outer diameter of the plastic cavity 6 is also slightly larger than the inner diameter of the wrapping device 5. The height of the plastic cavity 6 (excluding the protrusions 10) is the same as the width of the wrapping device 5. With this design, when the plastic cavity 6 is placed into the wrapping device 5, the deformation and compression of the wrapping device 5 allow the plastic cavity 6 to be compressed. Furthermore, the presence of the protrusions 10 ensures that the plastic cavity 6 is locked in place by the wrapping device 5 from both sides, preventing it from falling off during use. Additionally, due to the presence of the notch 7, the gap in the notch 7 decreases and eventually disappears when the plastic cavity 6 is compressed, resisting excessive deformation of the plastic cavity 6 under the external force of the wrapping device 5 and maintaining force balance.

[0031] During actual maintenance, when the optical fiber is inserted into the notch 7 and the plastic cavity 6 is completely placed into the wrapping device 5, the external pressure helps to fix the optical fiber, preventing it from loosening and falling off. Because the plastic cavity 6 is made of flexible material, the optical fiber is not damaged or broken when it is compressed and fixed within it. The two chambers 9 contain hydrogen peroxide and bis(oxalate) respectively, and are completely separated by a thin film separator 7.

[0032] The depth of the notch 7 in the plastic cavity 6 is the radius of the plastic cavity 6, which ensures that after the plastic cavity 6 is squeezed, the thin film partition 7 is subjected to sufficient tension and breaks. Then, the chemical substances in the two chambers 9 mix and cause the fluorescent dye to emit light to achieve illumination.

[0033] In this embodiment, there are 12 ribs 4 to be applicable to the inspection and maintenance of existing optical cables. A ring-shaped stabilizing frame 11 is provided in the middle of the rib 4 to prevent the rib 4 from deforming due to gravity.

[0034] like Figure 5 As shown, in another real-time mode of this embodiment, an optical cable repair separation identifier is provided, including the aforementioned stabilizing component and separation component. The support frame 1 is set on one side of the separation component, and a horizontal bracket is set at the bottom as a base. It can be used for optical cable repair work with more wire cores. The rotating separation component can achieve the purpose of faster wire separation and winding.

[0035] In this embodiment of the separation and identification device, during nighttime fiber optic repair (splicing), the 12 required transparent plastic cavities are first compressed by external force to rupture the internal thin film layer 7. Hydrogen peroxide and bis(oxalate) in the two chambers 9 mix and begin to emit light. Then, the stripped optical fibers are placed into the notches 7 on the 12 transparent plastic cavities and embedded in the wrapping device 5, with the notches 7 facing outwards. The optical fibers are fixed under the external force of the wrapping device 5. Simultaneously, the chemical reaction between hydrogen peroxide and bis(oxalate) in the transparent cavities emits light, aiding in the identification of the optical fiber's color at night. After the 12 optical fibers are fixed, the entire device can rotate, facilitating rapid positioning and splicing of the optical fibers, simplifying fiber connection, preventing tangling, and improving repair efficiency.

[0036] Furthermore, the plastic cavity 6 can be replaced after use, is small in size and low in cost, and the number of replacements can be determined according to needs; and the entire bracket can be reused, reducing costs.

[0037] Although the present disclosure has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, such modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present disclosure are all within the scope of protection claimed by the present disclosure.
