Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate the resetting of the wiredrawn optical fiber when the fiber is broken by providing rollers, which can be reciprocated between a pass line and a standby position, between a proof test loader and a rewinder. CONSTITUTION:A movable roller 32 is moved from a position (a) from which a working piece 69 is elevated to a position (b). The movable roller 32 lowers as the working piece 69 lowers, and the roller acts as a dancer roller when a lower-limit switch 70 is actuated. When an optical fiber is wiredrawn, the rollers in the loader 20 and in the dancer roller 30 are moved to the standby position. Under such conditions, the optical fiber is hung from an optical fiber introducing machine to a rewinder 50. Then when the switch is manually pushed, the rollers are moved to the pass line P and reset to the normal feed pass line. By such a device, the optical fiber can be hung in a line from a take-up means to the rewinder at the final position without being disturbed by any obstacles when the fiber is hung.

Therefore, take-up rehoie>1. 11 to the winding pobbin 52, it is necessary to reduce the winding speed to the 0f wire speed that can be done manually. The linear speed decreases as the number of intermediate guide rollers increases and as the path line becomes more complex. Conventional optical fiber drawing equipment has a limit of about 40 to 50 −/min. Since the steady-state drawing speed is much thicker than this, at 150 m/min or more, there is a drawback that a considerable amount of scrap fiber is generated between the steady-state speed and the reduced limit speed.
