Narrate the optical fiber of the present invention synthetic method of porous mother metal and the 1st embodiment of device thereof below.
Fig. 3 is the plane structure chart of the optical fiber of the 1st embodiment with the synthesizer of porous mother metal, and Fig. 4 is the sectional side view on the X-X line of Fig. 3.
This optical fiber has with the synthesizer of porous mother metal: form portion 2 and the periphery that forms portion 2 at this core by means of chuck 16 clampings by core and adhere to the turning axle 18 that tectum that (accumulation) glass microparticle forms forms the target 10 that portion 8 forms; The chamber 12 that is holding target 10; Be disposed at the spray gun 4 and the venting port 14 of the sidewall in this chamber 12; Make the target 10 upward to-and-fro movement of T in the horizontal direction that is connected on the turning axle 18, the rotation of on sense of rotation R, rotating, reciprocating mechanism (not shown).Spray gun 4 relatively moves with target 10 and gets final product.
Core formation portion 2 is the parts that become fibre-optic core, and tectum formation portion 8 becomes fibre-optic tectal part.
Argon gas and SiCl are introduced in triple tube spray gun 4 centers 4, its outer hydrogen of introducing, outside one deck is introduced oxygen again, forms the flame of glass microparticle.These glass microparticles are blown to target 10, are piled up on the target 10, and tectum formation portion 8 is increased.
Shown in Fig. 4 diagram, on symmetric position, chamber about in the of 12 (or about), set fixedly fixedly cowling panel group 22 of cowling panel group 20 and the 2nd.In this example, fixedly cowling panel group 20 and 22 is made of 4 pieces of cowling panels respectively.Up and down 4 pieces of cowling panels respectively with symmetric angle configurations on symmetric position.
Fixedly cowling panel group 20 and 22 has the center of the flame 6 (glass microparticle) that sends with the axle center, the spray gun 4 that comprise target 10 and the level crossing of venting port 14, can be on relative direction air attract, with the suction port of adjacent cowling panel separation.
The inside in chamber 12 is negative pressure with respect to the outside in chamber 12, and therefore, the atmosphere (air) around the chamber 12 is inhaled in the chamber by fixing cowling panel group 20 and 22.These air are used as rectification gas.
Fixedly cowling panel group 20 and each cowling panel of 22 are set its position and angle according to the side that inhaled air is blowed to target 10 and with the requirement facing to the behind of the target 10 of spray gun 4.Thereby, the glass microparticle that sprays to target 10 from spray gun be pressed towards by target 10 surfaces, when more specifically saying so by sidepiece target 10 on one side and, in the behind of target 10, also be pressed towards target 10 on one side.
The result is, except the front of collision target 10, be deposited in the glass particle on the target 10, residual glass microparticle is when passing through the side of target 10, diffusion, but pressed to target 10 1 sides by the rectification gas air, the distribution of shapes of the streamline of the glass microparticle of target 10 sidepieces is near target 10, and the adhesion amount of the glass microparticle of target 10 sidepieces increases.And even in the behind of target 10, the glass microparticle also is pressed towards target 10 on one side, even thereby target 10 behind the adhesion amount of glass microparticles on target 10 also increase.
In a word because as the effect of the air of rectification gas, the streamline distribution of the side of target 10 and glass microparticle behind near target 10 on one side, therefore, the side of target 10 and behind the adhesion amount of glass microparticle increase.As a result, can form (synthesizing) desirable sintered glass mother metal at short notice.And the glass microparticle of discharging from venting port 14 tails off, and the loss of glass microparticle reduces, moreover the glass microparticle that is discharged to scourer has reduced, so the processing of scourer has reduced.
Following mask body is narrated the 1st experimental example of the present invention (the 1st embodiment)
The core formation portion 2 of external diameter 20mm, 1m is fixed in the rotating shaft 18 by means of chuck 16, by means of rotating shaft 18, makes the rotating speed rotation of target 10 with about 300RPM, and moves it with the speed of 500mm/min, makes it adhere to SiO in the periphery of core formation portion 2 2Microparticle reaches about external diameter 150mm as tectum formation portion 8.
At this moment, in the triple tube spray gun, import oxygen 30SLM, hydrogen 80SLM, argon gas 20SLM, SiCl 4Gas 10SLM.
Spray gun and target 10 are contained in airtight chamber 12, and the pressure maintenance-10mmAq in the chamber amounts to from the suction opening that forms between each cowling panel of fixing cowling panel group 20 and 22 and to suck about 3m 3The atmosphere of/min.The atmosphere that is inhaled into is controlled air flow line by cowling panel.Make glass microparticle stream (flame 6) not break away from behind and the sidepiece that target 10, particularly glass microparticle do not break away from target 10, and flow to the effect of target 10.
Do not use under the situation of retaining plate group 20 and 22, the deposition efficiency average out to 40% of glass microparticle on target 10 up to now, and bring up to 60% in this experiment.
In this 1st embodiment, in the chamber 12 is negative pressure, therefore, because attraction naturally from fixing cowling panel group 20 and 22, atmosphere around the chamber 12 is inhaled in the chamber 12, but also can replace gas blower, atmosphere is pressed in the chamber 12 by force, so that form the gas microparticle stream identical around the target 10 with above-mentioned situation with it.
Perhaps also can be not limited to atmosphere (air), the gas beyond the air, as above-mentioned same gas particles stream nature suction or with gas blower by force in the suction chamber 12.
Suck or be pressed into the gas in the chamber 12, with atmosphere (air) so the most cheap the most desirable, but also identical with other gas effects.If but use 100% inactive gas, be a unfavorable factor for burning from the flame 6 of spray gun 4 ejection, therefore, and need not 100% inactive gas, preferably mix during with inactive gas with inflammable gas.Particularly, make it contain inflammable gas, then the temperature on sintered glass mother metal surface uprises, and more promotes the synthetic of sintered glass mother metal, improves the density of sintered glass mother metal.To this, will be narrated in the back.
Below one of example of narration device in the past the diagram of Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 (for example Japan real open clear 62-97138 communique) and in view of the above the optical fiber of the present invention that forms of improvement with the synthetic method of porous mother metal and the 2nd embodiment of device thereof.
In the past in the example, bell jar 24 is set in the chamber 12 at this, the sidepiece in chamber 12 is provided with the 1st air filter 26 and the 2nd air filter 28.And the top in chamber 12 is provided with the chamber loam cake 12A that can open and close freely.Other structures are with the synthesizer of Fig. 3 diagrammatic optical fiber with the porous mother metal.
This is example in the past, sets bell jar 24 in the chamber 12 that chamber loam cake 12A is set, and scatters at target 10 in order to limit from the glass microparticle (flame 6) of spray gun 4 ejections, and bell jar 24 is set.
Chamber 12 air outside are inhaled in the chamber 12 of negative pressure state by air filter 26 and 28 respectively.The air that is inhaled into enters bell jar 24 by the gap 29 of 24 of target 10 and bell jars.
Under the situation of this spline structure, along with the plane of the axle of axle that comprises target 10 and spray gun 42 in opposite directions, the direction of intersecting suction gas is difficult, so should addresses this problem.Implemented as Fig. 7-improvement shown in Figure 9.
Narrate synthetic method and the device thereof of optical fiber of the present invention below with reference to Fig. 7-Fig. 9 with the porous mother metal.Fig. 7 is the orthographic plan of optical fiber with the synthesizer of porous mother metal, and Fig. 8 is the Y-Y line sectional side view of Fig. 7, and Fig. 9 is the X-X line sectional drawing of Fig. 7 and Fig. 8.
This 2nd embodiment is with reference to the 1st embodiment of Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 narration and with reference to the improvement example of the example of Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 narration.
In the 1st embodiment, there is not bell jar, therefore, the control that the correct streamline shape by target 10 lateral glass microparticles (flame 6) is distributed has some difficulties.
In Fig. 5 example shown in Figure 6, the air in air filter 26,28 suction chambers 12 further is inhaled in the bell jar 24 from gap 29.At this moment, with the direction of level crossing of the axle 10 that comprises target 10 and the axle of spray gun 42 on attract gas, be difficult with its importing, the side of target 10 or glass microparticle behind fail effectively to be pressed in target 10 on one side.
The 2nd embodiment is intended to solve the above-mentioned problem that the 1st embodiment and Fig. 5, example shown in Figure 6 exist, be with reference to the cowling panel of the 1st embodiment of Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 narration with reference to Fig. 5 and the bell jar of Fig. 6 narration and the embodiment of usefulness.
Among Fig. 7, the interior bell jar 30 of the some that surrounds target 10, chuck 16 and rotating shaft 18 is set in chamber 12, air filter 26,28 is set on the sidewall in chamber 12.Because chamber 12 is negative pressure, air is inhaled in the chamber 12 through air filter 26,28.In the present embodiment, interior bell jar 30 is vertically being done longly, and this is in order to suppress about synthetic point that flame 6 blows to target 10 flow velocity of (target axially) direction.
Among Fig. 8, with the orthogonal direction of sensing of the flame 6 of spray gun 4 ejection on.Clip target 10, on the sidewall of interior bell jar 30, relatively set the 1st fixing fixing straightening vanes group 36 of straightening vanes group 34 and the 2nd.
In Fig. 9, the flame 6 of spray gun ejection is deposited on the target 10.Be not deposited on the target 10 and the glass microparticle that left behind by the sidepiece of target 10, again by the behind of target 10, discharge from venting port 14.Be subjected to the restriction of interior bell shape by the glass microparticle of target 10 sidepieces.Flow to target 10 on one side.Moreover suck through air filter 26,28 air in the chamber 12 that is negative pressure be inhaled into through the suction port between each cowling panel of the fixedly straightening vanes group 34 that sets in opposite directions and 36 in the bell jar 30.Fixing straightening vanes group 34 and 36, because consistent with the sensing of the flame 6 (glass microparticle) of spray gun 4 ejections, air is concentrated in the interior bell jar 30 that closely is close to that sucks flame 6, the air in being inhaled in the bell jar 30 more help to control the distribution of shapes of flame 6.The result is pressed to target 10 with the glass microparticle especially.Therefore, increased attached to target 10 sides and glass microparticle behind.
In the present embodiment, the constraint of bell jar 30 in being subjected to from target 10 axial leaked-in airs, comparatively speaking, the inspiratory capacity of coming from the cowling panel direction is big.Moreover in the present embodiment, scattering of 30 pairs of glass microparticles of bell jar (flame 6) limited in this.
(B) narrate optical fiber of the present invention with the synthetic method of porous mother metal and the 3rd embodiment of device thereof below with reference to Figure 10 (A).
In case the glass microparticle is piled up to target 10, the sintered glass mother metal, just the diameter of this target 10 just becomes big.Owing to the diameter of target 10 is to change along with synthetic like this, original in order to improve the efficient of synthesizing porous base glass material, the distributions and the glass microparticle stream of the streamline of flame 6 are also changed with the diameter of target 10.
Thereby in the present embodiment, according to the size of target 10 diameters, control rectification gas reaches the purpose that the feed glass microparticle flows.
For this reason, in the present embodiment,, on relative position, the 1st angular setting formula straightening vanes group 38 and the 2nd angular setting formula straightening vanes group 40 are set in the side of interior bell jar 30 with the center of the axle that links spray gun 4, target 10 and the level crossing of venting port 14.Each blade of the 1st angular setting formula straightening vanes group 38, for example angular setting formula straightening vanes 38A has the straightening vanes 381 with pivot 382 supportings.Equally, each blade of the 2nd angular setting formula straightening vanes group 48, for example angular setting formula straightening vanes 40A has by pivot 402 and is supported on straightening vanes 401 on the inner bell jar 30.Structurally, straightening vanes 381 can be that rotate freely at the center with pivot 382; Equally, structurally straightening vanes 410 can be that rotate freely at the center with pivot 402 also.Each vane group of angular setting formula straightening vanes group 38 is rotated symmetrically with each blade that is in the angular setting formula vane group 40 of symmetric position.
The turned position of the 1st angular setting formula straightening vanes group 38 and the 2nd angular setting formula vane group 40 when the diameter of Figure 10 (A) expression target 10 is little.
Because the diameter of target 10 is little, the glass microparticle of spray gun 10 ejections directly hits on target 10, and is low attached to the probability on the target 10, many by target 10 lateral amounts.Therefore, in this case, adjust the direction of each blade of the 1st angular setting formula straightening vanes group 38 and the 2nd angular setting formula straightening vanes group 40, with these air in the bell jar 30 in be inhaled between blade, the glass microparticle is pressed to more on the target 10 of minor diameter, make the glass microparticle attached on the target 10.
