The invention discloses a dancer detecting mechanism capable of achieving variable-tension adjustment and control. The dancer detecting mechanism can be particularly used for variable-tension precise adjustment and control during layer changing winding of 
optical fiber windings. According to the dancer detecting mechanism capable of achieving variable-tension adjustment and control, a minitype 
ball screw transmission pair is driven by a stepping motor to enable the position of a sliding 
poise in the length direction of a swing rod to be changed accurately, position detection is conducted on the swing rod through an angle 
transducer, and thus the swing rod is kept at the horizontal position in the moment balance state. Through changing of the position of the sliding 
poise and precise detection and control over the horizontal balanced position of the swing rod, the tension of an 
optical fiber which is wound after layer changing can meet the requirement for a new stable value, 
automatic variable-tension adjustment and control during layer changing winding of the 
optical fiber windings are achieved, the stress difference and the 
strain difference, which are caused by increase of the number of 
layers of the optical 
fiber windings, between an inner layer and an outer layer can be eliminated, the optical 
fiber windings can be finally wound on the premise that that the stress of the inner layer and the stress of the outer layer are equal, and thus the 
signal transmission performance and the stability of the optical 
fiber windings are improved remarkably.
