The sealing device for the tail handle of the optical fiber preform, as shown in fig. 1 to 5, comprises a quartz tail pipe 1 fixed on a hanging rod platform, wherein the lower end of the quartz tail pipe is generally hung on the tail handle 13 part of a preform 12 through a hanging rod hook 11, the preform is usually made of doped materials mainly comprising quartz, and the tail handle is made of quartz. And a quartz assembly for realizing sealing is sleeved in the reducing area of the tail handle of the preform. The sealing device provided by the invention achieves sealing when the tail handle of the preform enters the wire drawing furnace through the quartz assembly of the reducing area of the tail handle, ensures the stability of air flow in the wire drawing furnace, can avoid oxidation of blow-by gas of the wire drawing furnace caused by the larger reducing area of the tail handle of the preform, and reduces the loss of graphite parts of the wire drawing furnace, thereby improving the utilization rate of raw materials and reducing the production cost of optical fibers.
During assembly, the quartz tail pipe is suspended on the hanging rod platform through the tail pipe chuck, then the quartz circular ring is sleeved on the tail handle of the prefabricated rod and falls into the reducing area of the tail part of the prefabricated rod, and the prefabricated rod is placed into the lower groove of the quartz tail pipe through the hanging rod hook.
And a quartz semicircular ring (two semicircular rings are combined) is added on the quartz circular ring, so that the lower edges of the left valve part and the right valve part of the sleeve are not contacted with the prefabricated rod, and finally the left valve part and the right valve part are combined and placed on the quartz circular ring. The sealing device has high reliability, good sealing performance and simple process.
The specific structure and composition are as follows:
the quartz assembly comprises a sleeve 2 with a downward opening, wherein a plurality of quartz rings are arranged in one end of the opening of the sleeve, and the quartz rings are used for separating the sleeve from the prefabricated rod. The sleeve, quartz tail tube, preform and quartz rings are preferably coaxially arranged.
In an alternative embodiment, the quartz ring comprises a sleeving ring 3 and an assembling ring 14, the sleeving ring is of a whole ring structure, and the assembling ring is assembled by two semi-rings to form a ring structure. Before the prefabricated rod is hung on the quartz tail pipe, the required number of sleeving rings (whole rings) can be sleeved on the tail handle of the prefabricated rod according to the requirement, or a plurality of groups of assembling rings (semi-rings) can be simultaneously arranged, and then the tail handle part is hung on the lower part of the quartz tail pipe through a hanging rod.
When the sleeve is assembled, the number of layers of the assembled rings (semi-rings) can be increased or decreased according to the requirement, and the sleeve is properly adjusted on the principle that the sleeve is not contacted with the prefabricated rod. Adopt the quartz ring to be the pin-connected panel structure of semi-ring, can make things convenient for the operation behind the hanging stick. The number of the quartz rings and the quartz semi-rings is determined by the length of the diameter-changing area of the tail handle, and the quartz semi-rings mainly have the effect of preventing the quartz sleeve and the lower edge of the quartz sleeve from being connected with the prefabricated rod in a melting way in a wire drawing furnace.
It should be noted that the assembly ring is generally arranged at the lower end of the sleeve ring (at least the uppermost end of the sleeve ring is sleeved with the sleeve ring), and the sleeve ring is utilized to compress the assembly ring at the lower side of the sleeve ring, so that the assembly ring is prevented from falling off, and when the quartz ring is highly suitable, the assembly sleeve is assembled to complete the assembly of the sealing device structure. The sleeve covers the reducing area of the tail handle of the preform, thereby achieving the sealing effect when the tail rod of the preform enters the wire drawing furnace.
