Description

A kind of fibre drawing furnace
Technical field
The present invention relates to optic fibre manufacturing technology field, relate in particular to a kind of fibre drawing furnace.
Background technology
Fibre drawing furnace is one of most important equipment in fiber manufacturing operation.During wire drawing, the interior temperature of fiber drawing furnace is over 2000 degrees Celsius; in fiber drawing furnace, there is a large amount of graphite members, therefore when high temperature wire drawing, need to have sufficient rare gas element to protect fiber drawing furnace, in case block gas enters fiber drawing furnace; cause the oxidation of graphite member, thereby affect the quality of wire drawing optical fiber.This major effect shows following aspect, component materials in fiber drawing furnace adopts high purity graphite conventionally, when wire drawing, in stove, temperature is higher, extraneous air is at high temperature oxidized graphite after entering fiber drawing furnace, affect the work-ing life of graphite member, the dust simultaneously producing after graphite oxidation can stick to prefabricated rods and melt in part, cause the fiber strength of making to decline, even affect fade performance, therefore need fiber drawing furnace to there is good resistance to air loss, and pass into rare gas element (as argon gas, helium etc.), the atmosphere of inert gases that keeps certain malleation in stove, thereby reach good provide protection.
The rare gas element that is usually used at present fiber drawing furnace has helium, argon gas, nitrogen.Rare gas element enters the fiber drawing furnace under the condition of high temperature, then discharges from fiber drawing furnace outlet, remains pressure-fired in fiber drawing furnace.The problem running into is at present, rare gas element enters in fiber drawing furnace easily at the inner turbulent flow that forms of stove, or sinuous flow, thereby affected the temperature variation of prefabricated rods thawing and even optical fiber forming area, cause fibre-optical drawing diameter thickness out to change greatly, the homogeneity of fibre diameter is not high, for follow-up processing causes difficulty, when fluctuation more easily causes follow-up optical fiber to peg graft such as fibre cladding, can not complete smoothly grafting etc., how controlling aborning fibre cladding diameter fluctuation is just becoming a lower level important topic that industry solves.
Summary of the invention
The technical assignment of technical problem to be solved by this invention and proposition is that prior art is improved, a kind of fibre drawing furnace is provided, the unstable that solves the inert gas flow in current technology causes fibre diameter to change and fiber strength decline, affects the problem of fibre-optical drawing quality.
For solving above technical problem, technical scheme of the present invention is:
A kind of fibre drawing furnace, comprise body of heater, thermal insulator, heating member, pipe core, it is characterized in that, described thermal insulator device is in body of heater, and thermal insulator wraps whole heating member, heating member is positioned at the periphery of pipe core, the top arrangement of body of heater has tightness system, and preform enters in pipe core through tightness system, and the bottom of body of heater is fibre-optical drawing outlet, below fibre-optical drawing outlet, connect airway, drawing optical fibers is pulled out from airway.The present invention is provided with gas operated device in traditional fibre drawing furnace exit, optical fiber is pulled out from gas operated device, effect due to gas operated device, rare gas element in drawing optical fibers furnace body is derived from gas operated device, rare gas element is along the downward streamlined flow of gas operated device, make gas flowfield steady, thereby the steady air current of giving vent to anger by control makes the air-flow of body of heater inside keep steady state, it is constant that temperature field keeps, thereby make the optical fiber fibril being drawn into can, because air turbulence causes diameter fluctuation, not guarantee that fibre diameter is even.
Further, the internal diameter of described gas operated device is round, and circular configuration is that flow field is more stable.
Further, the internal diameter of described gas operated device is pipe or conical tube.
Further, described gas operated device internal diameter is 1~20mm.By test, find that gas operated device internal diameter obviously reduces for the stabilization of air-flow over 20mm, if gas operated device internal diameter is less than 1mm, easily causes optical fiber easily to clip gas operated device inwall, thereby affects the intensity of optical fiber.
Further, the length of described gas operated device is 10~1000mm.During according to actual production, the diameter of drawing optical fiber and optical fiber material adopt suitable gas operated device internal diameter and length.
Further, described gas operated device is to be combined by two or more lobe bodys.When preform melts gradually, in its bottom, can accumulate the frit of melted state, it hangs down naturally, just forms optical fiber.At initial its diameter of fusing stub bar forming, cannot pass through gas operated device more greatly, can cause the obstruction of gas operated device, affect the normal operation of whole fibre drawing furnace, therefore gas operated device is set to amalgamation assembly type, when just starting heating optical fiber preform, two or more lobe bodys of gas operated device are separated position, distance separately needs enough fusing stub bars to pass through, fusing stub bar by behind gas operated device position again by two or more lobe body amalgamation of gas operated device, make gas operated device start normal work, effectively prevent that variations in flow from causing detrimentally affect to fibre-optical drawing.
Further, described bottom of furnace body is provided with chute, the lobe body device of gas operated device on chute along chute slip amalgamation.Adopt this kind of mode can separate easily or two or more lobe bodys of amalgamation gas operated device, only need slide along chute, simple and quick.
Further, described pipe core inside is useful on the muffle tube of water conservancy diversion at fibre-optical drawing exit returning apparatus.Make the gas flowfield in pipe core steady, avoid drawing optical fibers diameter to change, ensure fiber strength.
Compared with prior art, the invention has the advantages that:
Fibre drawing furnace of the present invention is provided with gas operated device in fibre-optical drawing outlet, plays current stabilization effect, effectively avoids air turbulence and causes fibre diameter fluctuation, ensures that fibre diameter is even;
Gas operated device of the present invention adopts two-piece construction, simple in structure, easy to use, can effectively avoid gas operated device to be melted stub bar and stop up, and guarantees the normal effectiveness of gas operated device.
Fibre drawing furnace of the present invention is simple in structure, low cost of manufacture, and suitability is strong, easy to make, and economic benefit is high.
