Description

A kind of comprehensive excess fiber length production method
Technical field
The present invention relates to technical field of optical fiber, especially a kind of comprehensive excess fiber length production method.
Background technology
Optical fiber is fabricated by by fragile material quartz, and plastic deformation will not be produced when optical fiber is acted on by external force, and It is the germinating and extension for being likely to occur crackle.The optical cable being composited by optical fiber can be subject to during production, installation and use The external force effect that some are difficult to avoid that, this can produce the damage that cannot be made up to internal optical fiber, and causing the performance of optical fiber reduces, Even fracture cannot be used.At this moment the static fatigue stress for being accomplished by excess fiber length to tackle the external force of optical cable and cause.Institute The excess fiber length of meaning refers to difference of the optical fiber without vertical strain physical length and reference physical length calculated with shortest path with percentage The relative value that number is represented.In loose tube structure optical cable, optical fiber has certain activity space in cable pipe or skeleton basin, while optical fiber Free bent state is presented, excess fiber length can provide certain stress protection when optical cable is subject to external carbuncle for optical fiber.
The optical fiber of different structure has different remaining long production modes.In loose tube structure optical cable, the generation of excess fiber length Mode has two kinds:One kind is that by optical cable in stranding, optical fiber or the sleeve pipe containing optical fiber are according to certain lay length of twist in It is long more than the stranded formation of heart stiffener, it is this remaining long referred to as stranded remaining long;Another kind is that cable pipe is stretched, under tensile force Optical cable applied elongation, reduces tensile force cable pipe retraction and optical fiber does not bounce back and produce remaining length, or cable pipe is entered then because not having stress The cold generation temperature difference of water-filling, cable pipe cooling meat, the optical fiber in cable pipe does not shrink and produces remaining length, and this remaining producing method long claims For long more than sleeve pipe.
Marine exploration can install numerous sensors in the position away from coastline, it is necessary to lay submarine optical fiber cable could be by signal Pass back.Optical cable undergoes numerous external force effects because of the motion of seawater, is used in the later stage of optical cable, meeting when especially early stage is laid There is very great flexural deformation, the requirement very high to the proposition of excess fiber length.The optical fiber of the generation of current loose tube structure optical cable Remaining length is difficult to ensure that the optical fiber of cable interior is not acted on by external force and cracks or even break in ocean optical cable laying.
The content of the invention
The technical problem to be solved in the present invention is to provide a kind of comprehensive excess fiber length that can lift excess fiber length amount and produces Method.
In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problem, the present invention is comprised the following steps:
Step one, excess fiber length as needed determines the total length of optical fibre in optical cable;
Step 2, optical fiber is twisted on metal tube;
Step 3, the twisted metal tube for having optical fiber is placed in baking oven and is heated
Step 4, metal tube is taken out from baking box, and optical fiber is removed from metal tube after cooling;
Step 5, stretching optical cable outside cable pipe;
Step 6, during cable pipe will be penetrated by the optical fiber of advance stranded treatment.
Step 7, under optical fiber unstressed state, is gradually reduced the tensile force suffered by cable pipe, and make optical fiber with cable pipe bullet Property reply do contractile motion;
Step 8, when tensile force is decreased to cable pipe not to stress, that is, obtains the excess fiber length of this method generation.
Preferably, the metal tube that step 2 is told is a diameter of 15 centimetres of cylindrical tube.
Preferably, the baking process described in step 4, baked temperature is 80 DEG C, and baking time is 2 hours.
Preferably, the cable pipe stretch processing described in step 5, its tensile elongation is according to ultimate tensile elongation design objective The maximum length of defined.
It is an advantage of the invention that to the higher of excess fiber length during seabed loose tube structure optical cable laying and use can be met It is required that.Optical fiber that will not be because of the motion in seawater to cable interior produces damage.
Specific embodiment
Embodiment cited by the present invention, is only intended to help and understands the present invention, should not be construed as to present invention protection model The restriction enclosed, for those skilled in the art, without departing from the inventive concept of the premise, can also be right The present invention is made improvements and modifications, and these are improved and modification is also fallen into the range of the claims in the present invention protection.
When optical cable is laid and worked in the seawater, the athletic meeting of seawater makes optical cable form the bending of long range, and this is to optical fiber The requirement of remaining length is high, and the excess fiber length amount of the excess fiber length production method institute output being currently known has been difficult to meet loose noose Use requirement of the structure optical cable in marine environment.Comprehensive excess fiber length production method of the present invention can be significantly Lifting excess fiber length amount, meets use requirement of the loose tube structure optical cable in marine environment.
Step one, excess fiber length as needed determines the total length of optical fibre in optical cable;
Step 2, optical fiber is twisted on a diameter of 15 centimetres of metallic cylindrical tube;
Step 3, the twisted metal tube for having optical fiber is placed in baking oven, with 80 DEG C, heat within 2 hours;
Step 4, metal tube is taken out from baking box, and aperture is removed from metal tube after cooling;
Step 5, according to the maximum length of ultimate tensile elongation design objective defined, stretching optical cable outside cable pipe;
Step 6, during cable pipe will be penetrated by the optical fiber of advance stranded treatment.
Step 7, under optical fiber unstressed state, is gradually reduced the tensile force suffered by cable pipe, and make optical fiber with cable pipe bullet Property reply do contractile motion;
Step 8, when tensile force is decreased to cable pipe not to stress, that is, obtains the excess fiber length of this method generation.
A kind of deficiency of the present invention for the excess fiber length production method of existing loose tube structure optical cable, there is provided comprehensive optical fiber The producing method of remaining length, obtains stranded remaining long by way of twisting fibers heat treatment shaping first, and then cable pipe is drawn Length more than acquisition sleeve pipe is stretched, the producing method of two kinds of excess fiber lengths is integrated, be greatly improved excess fiber length amount, pine can be made Optical fiber in nested structure optical cable is greatly protected.
