Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical fiber processing technology, and in particular to a vertical grinding fixture for the end of an FA optical fiber array. Background Technology

[0002] The fiber optic array consists of fiber optic bundles and glass end caps. The manufacturing process involves placing the fiber optic bundle heads into the V-grooves of the glass end caps, adding a cover plate for adhesive reinforcement, and finally grinding the glass end caps. The glass end cap grinding fixture is a regular hexagonal disc with several openings on each side for placing the fiber optic array end caps. After tightening the screws, it is suspended on a grinding machine for grinding. The fiber optic head is small in size, making it difficult to clamp and fix during grinding. If it becomes loose, it can easily cause the grinding process to deviate, affecting the product quality. Moreover, the current method of fixing the fiber optic head is generally done manually, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, resulting in low processing efficiency.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a vertical grinding fixture for FA fiber array ends to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a vertical grinding fixture for FA fiber array ends, which can not only automatically clamp and fix FA fiber array ends, but also clamp and fix FA fiber array ends of different specifications, while avoiding damage to the FA fiber array ends during the clamping process.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a vertical polishing fixture for FA fiber array ends, including a fixing plate, a control panel, and a fixing mechanism installed on a vertical polishing machine for FA fiber array ends; An electric push rod is fixedly mounted on the fixed plate. One end of the electric push rod is provided with a fixing mechanism. A control panel is fixedly mounted on the fixed plate. Both the fixing mechanism and the electric push rod are connected to the control panel. The fixing mechanism includes a placement seat, a housing, a guide plate, a transmission plate, a pressure sensor, a movable plate, and steel balls mounted on a vertical grinding machine for FA fiber array ends. One end of the electric push rod is mounted on the housing, and multiple movable plates are movably connected to the bottom of the housing. Through the coordinated design of the fixing plate, the electric push rod, the control panel, and the fixing mechanism, the FA fiber array end only needs to be placed on the transmission plate. With the help of the preset program in the control panel and the action of the pressure sensor, the FA fiber array end can be automatically clamped and fixed, improving convenience and processing efficiency. It can also clamp and fix FA fiber array ends of different specifications, expanding its applicability. During the clamping process, damage to the FA fiber array end can be avoided, improving product quality and increasing practicality.

[0006] A further feature of this invention is that the placement seat corresponds to the housing, and the top of the placement seat is provided with an installation groove. A transmission plate is installed in the installation groove to facilitate transmission. The transmission plate corresponds to multiple movable plates to facilitate clamping and fixing of the FA fiber array end.

[0007] A further feature of this invention is that the placement base has a second mounting groove, in which a pressure sensor is fixedly installed. One side of the transmission plate is connected to the sensing end of the pressure sensor to perform a monitoring function.

[0009] A further feature of this invention is that the housing has multiple sliding grooves, and the multiple movable plates slide within the multiple sliding grooves. Both the housing and the multiple sliding grooves contain multiple steel balls. Through the fluidity between the steel balls, the movable plates can slide a certain distance within the corresponding sliding groove when interacting with the FA fiber array end, thus forming a groove that fits the FA fiber array end. When the movable plates and the steel balls mutually block and limit each other, the multiple movable plates are effectively fixed and positioned.

[0010] A further feature of this invention is that the diameter of each of the steel balls is smaller than the width of the movable plate, which facilitates the movement of the steel balls within the sliding grooves.

[0011] A further feature of this invention is that each of the multiple movable plates has a groove on both sides, and each of the multiple grooves has a protrusion slidably connected therein. Each of the multiple protrusions is fixedly connected to the housing. The interaction between the multiple grooves and the protrusions can prevent the multiple movable plates from detaching from the housing.

[0012] A further feature of this invention is that: each of the multiple movable plates has a groove on both sides, and each of the multiple grooves has a protrusion slidably connected therein, and each of the multiple protrusions is fixedly connected to the housing to improve sealing.

[0013] A further feature of this invention is that a sealing gasket is fixedly connected to one end of each of the multiple movable plates, and the multiple sealing gaskets move within the multiple sliding grooves respectively. The sealing gaskets can effectively improve the sealing performance between the movable plates and the housing, and effectively reduce the risk of steel ball leakage.

[0014] A further feature of this invention is that a protective pad is fixedly connected to one end of each of the multiple movable plates, and the multiple protective pads correspond to the transmission plate to provide protection.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Through the cooperative design between the fixing plate, electric push rod, control panel, and fixing mechanism, the FA fiber array end only needs to be placed on the transmission plate.

[0021] Reference Figures 1-4 A vertical polishing fixture for FA fiber array ends includes a fixing plate 1, a control panel 10, and a fixing mechanism mounted on a vertical polishing machine for FA fiber array ends. An electric push rod 2 is fixedly installed on the fixed plate 1. One end of the electric push rod 2 is provided with a fixing mechanism. A control panel 10 is fixedly installed on the fixed plate 1. The fixing mechanism and the electric push rod 2 are both connected to the control panel 10. The fixing mechanism includes a placement seat 4, a housing 3, a guide plate 5, a transmission plate 6, a pressure sensor 7, a movable plate 8, and steel balls 9, all mounted on the FA fiber array end-mount vertical polishing machine. One end of the electric push rod 2 is fitted with the housing 3, and multiple housings 3 can be mounted on the other end via the mounting plate. Simultaneously, a corresponding number of placement seats 4 are provided on the FA fiber array end-mount vertical polishing machine. Driven by the electric push rod 2, multiple FA fiber array ends can be clamped and fixed, further improving processing efficiency. Multiple movable plates 8 are movably connected to the bottom of the housing 3, allowing for fixing... The design of the plate 1, electric push rod 2, control panel 10, and fixing mechanism allows for automatic clamping and fixing of the FA fiber array end cap by simply placing it on the transmission plate 6 and using the preset program in the control panel 10 and the pressure sensor 7. This improves convenience and processing efficiency, and also enables clamping and fixing of FA fiber array end caps of different specifications, expanding its applicability. Furthermore, it avoids damage to the FA fiber array end cap during clamping, improving product quality and increasing practicality.

[0022] In this embodiment, the placement seat 4 corresponds to the housing 3. The top of the placement seat 4 is provided with an installation groove 1, and a transmission plate 6 is installed in the installation groove 1 to facilitate the transmission of the transmission plate 6. The transmission plate 6 corresponds to multiple movable plates 8 to facilitate the clamping and fixing of the FA fiber array end.

[0023] In this embodiment, the placement base 4 has a second mounting groove, in which a pressure sensor 7 is fixedly installed. One side of the transmission plate 6 is connected to the sensing end of the pressure sensor 7 for monitoring. The pressure sensor 7 is connected to the control panel 10. Two guide plates 5 are fixedly connected to the placement base 4. Both guide plates 5 are in contact with the housing 3. The housing 3 can be moved and guided by the two guide plates 5, which improves stability.

[0024] In this embodiment, the housing 3 is provided with multiple sliding grooves 13, and multiple movable plates 8 slide within the multiple sliding grooves 13 respectively. Multiple steel balls 9 are provided in both the housing 3 and the multiple sliding grooves 13. Through the fluidity between the multiple steel balls 9, when the multiple movable plates 8 act with the FA fiber array end, they can slide a certain distance within the corresponding sliding grooves 13, thereby enabling the multiple movable plates 8 to form grooves that are compatible with the FA fiber array end. When the multiple movable plates 8 and the multiple steel balls 9 block and limit each other, the effect of limiting and fixing the multiple movable plates 8 is achieved.

[0025] In this embodiment, the diameter of each of the multiple steel balls 9 is smaller than the width of the movable plate 8, which facilitates the movement of the multiple steel balls 9 within the multiple sliding grooves 13. When the multiple movable plates 8 detach from the FA fiber array end, the multiple movable plates 8 can return to their original state through the gravity of the multiple steel balls 9 and the gravity of the multiple movable plates 8 themselves.

[0026] In this embodiment, grooves 11 are formed on both sides of multiple movable plates 8, and protrusions 12 are slidably connected within each groove 11. Each protrusion 12 is fixedly connected to the housing 3. The interaction between the grooves 11 and the protrusions 12 can prevent the multiple movable plates 8 from detaching from the housing 3. Grooves 11 are formed on both sides of multiple movable plates 8, and protrusions 12 are slidably connected within each groove 11. Each protrusion 12 is fixedly connected to the housing 3. A sealing gasket is fixedly connected to one end of each movable plate 8. The sealing gaskets move within multiple sliding grooves 13. The sealing gaskets can effectively improve the sealing between the movable plates 8 and the housing 3, effectively reducing the risk of steel ball leakage. A protective gasket is fixedly connected to one end of each movable plate 8. The protective gaskets correspond to the transmission plate 6 and play a protective role.

[0027] Working principle: When in use, first connect the power supply and drive the electric push rod 2 through the preset program in the control panel 10; First, the FA fiber array end to be clamped is placed on the transmission plate 6. At this time, the pressure sensor 7 detects the force through the action of the transmission plate 6 and transmits the information to the control panel 10. Simultaneously, the control panel 10 analyzes and judges the information according to the preset program and sends a command to the electric push rod 2. Then, the electric push rod 2 drives the housing 3 to move towards the transmission plate 6. At the same time, the housing 3 drives multiple movable plates 8 to move and interact with the FA fiber array end. With the cooperation of the transmission plate 6, the purpose of clamping and limiting the FA fiber array end is achieved. During this process, among the multiple movable plates 8, the FA fiber array end... The movable plate 8 corresponding to the head interacts with the FA fiber array end and slides a certain distance into the housing 3. At the same time, it also interacts with and squeezes multiple steel balls 9. Since the multiple steel balls 9 have fluidity within the housing 3, they move to other directions, thus forming a groove between the multiple movable plates 8 that matches the FA fiber array end. Then, when the multiple movable plates 8 on the housing 3 interact with the multiple steel balls 9, the shape of the multiple movable plates 8 is limited and fixed. With the cooperation of the transmission plate 6, the FA fiber array end is clamped and fixed. This also enables the clamping and fixing of FA fiber array ends of different specifications, thus expanding the applicability. During the clamping and fixing of the FA fiber array end, the cooperation between the transmission plate 6 and the pressure sensor 7 can detect the guiding force between the multiple movable plates 8 and the FA fiber array end, thereby avoiding damage to the FA fiber array end.

[0028] The technological advancements of this invention compared to existing technologies are as follows: through the cooperation of various components, it not only achieves the effect of automatically clamping and fixing the FA fiber array end, improving convenience and processing efficiency, but also achieves the effect of clamping and fixing FA fiber array end with different specifications, expanding the scope of application. During the clamping process of the FA fiber array end, it can avoid damage to the FA fiber array end, improving product quality. Moreover, the structure is simple and the practicality is higher.
