Abstract

An on-line cooling method using hydrogen in an optical fiber drawing process is disclosed by the invention, and comprises the following steps: an optical fiber coming out from a graphite furnace successively passes through a diameter gauge and a defect detector, and gets to a cooling pipe of a cooling device, and the drawing speed gradually rises; when the drawing speed reaches 300-500 mpm, a hydrogen recovery and purification device begins to work; when the drawing speed reaches 800 mpm, a hydrogen supplying device begins to work, hydrogen is filled into a gas cooling pipeline, and the optical fiber moves downward and drives the hydrogen to move downward, and the heat of the optical fiber surface is adsorbed by the hydrogen in the movement process; the hydrogen fully contacts the inner surface of the cooling pipe, and the heat is transferred to the cooling pipe; the heat adsorbed by the cooling pipe is taken away by a cooling water circulation device, and thus the whole optical fiber cooling process is achieved. The specific heat capacity of hydrogen employed by the on-line cooling method is higher than that of helium, and the cooling effect is better; and furtherly, hydrogen is a conventional gas and is convenient to supply, and thus the cost of manufactures is reduced.

The outlet of above-mentioned cooling air pipe is connected with the entrance of gas pipeline; The outlet of gas pipeline is positioned at 1/3 place of cooling air pipe.
The hydrogen that the present invention adopts is larger than the specific heat capacity of helium, and therefore cooling performance is better; In addition, hydrogen is a kind of conventional gas, and supply is very convenient, cheap, reduces the cost of manufacturer.
Accompanying drawing explanation
Fig. 1 is structural representation of the present invention.
Embodiment
The technique means realized for making the present invention, creation characteristic, reaching object and effect is easy to understand, below in conjunction with embodiment, setting forth the present invention further.
The present invention includes following step:
(1) arrive the cooling tube of refrigerating unit successively through caliper, defect instrument from graphite furnace optical fiber out, drawing speed rises gradually;
(2) when drawing speed reaches 300-500mpm, hydrogen recovery purifying plant is started working;
(3) when drawing speed reaches 800mpm, hydrogen making-up air device is started working, and hydrogen is filled in cooling air pipe, and optical fiber moves downward and drives hydrogen to walk downwards, and in the process of motion, the temperature of optical fiber surface is by absorption of hydrogen; And hydrogen fully contacts with cooling tube internal surface, heat is delivered on cooling tube; Cooling tube absorb heat again cooled water circle device take away, namely achieve whole optical fiber process of cooling.
See Fig. 1, refrigerating unit of the present invention comprise cooling tube 2, with cooling tube 2 coaxial arrange cooling air pipe 10, the gas pipeline 8 be connected with cooling air pipe 10, be arranged on the cooling water circulating device on cooling tube 2 and be successively set on pump, the hydrogen recovery purifying plant 5(existing apparatus on gas pipeline 8, repeat no more herein), hydrogen making-up air device 6(existing apparatus, repeat no more herein) and gas flow control device 7(existing apparatus, repeat no more herein).
