The optical gate for the time-sharing fiber laser can rapidly couple laser into the selected output fiber according to the requirements of users, so that one fiber laser can provide laser for a plurality of working units in different time periods, and the users can conveniently replace the optical fiber for operation at any time. Because the optical gate is a closed device, the internal state of the optical gate needs to be monitored in use, and the safe use is ensured. At present, the monitoring means of the whole system of the optical gate for the time-sharing optical fiber laser is deficient, and comprises a switching method of an internal optical path, a control method of laser output and a detection method of an internal state. Therefore, it is important to provide an optical gate for a time-sharing fiber laser having a safety monitoring function.

When the optical gate works, on one hand, each component is ensured not to be damaged, and on the other hand, laser is ensured to be coupled into a fiber core of the output optical fiber for transmission. The safety of the shutter in operation is ensured by a safety monitoring system using a series of detectors to form the shutter. First, the delivery fiber of the laser needs to be properly inserted into the shutter. When the laser transmission optical fiber 1 is correctly inserted into the input port 2, a circuit attached to the laser transmission optical fiber 1 is communicated with the first electrode plate 15, and in a normal working state, the temperature of the input port 2 is lower than a threshold value (the threshold value is usually 70 ℃) of the first temperature control switch 18, an internal circuit of the first temperature control switch 18 is kept closed, and at the moment, a signal of the first port 28 is a path; when the laser transmission optical fiber 1 is not correctly inserted into the input port 2, a circuit attached to the laser transmission optical fiber 1 is not communicated with the first electrode plate 15, and a signal of the first port 28 is an open circuit; when the stray light at the input port 2 is too much, the temperature of the input port 2 is greatly increased due to the absorption of a large amount of stray light, when the temperature of the input port 2 is higher than the threshold value of the first temperature-controlled switch 18, the internal circuit of the first temperature-controlled switch 18 is automatically disconnected, and at the moment, the signal of the first port 28 is disconnected; therefore, the signal of port one 28 is on indicating that the state of the input port 2 is normal, and the signal of port one 28 is off indicating that the state of the input port 2 is abnormal. Similarly, when the first output fiber 11 is correctly inserted into the first output port 9 and the temperature of the first output port 9 is lower than the threshold of the second temperature-controlled switch 19, the signal of the tenth port 37 is on, which indicates that the state of the first output port 9 is normal, otherwise, the signal of the tenth port 37 is off, which indicates that the state of the first output port 9 is abnormal. When the second output fiber 12 is correctly inserted into the second output port 10 and the temperature of the second output port 10 is lower than the threshold value of the third temperature-controlled switch 20, the signal of the eighth port 35 is on, which indicates that the second output port 10 is in a normal state, otherwise, the eighth port 35 is off, which indicates that the second output port 10 is in an abnormal state. The light receiver 6 is used for absorbing and processing residual laser which penetrates through the first reflecting mirror 4 or the second reflecting mirror 5, when the residual laser is too much, the temperature of the light receiver 6 is greatly increased due to the fact that a large amount of residual laser is absorbed, when the temperature of the light receiver 6 is higher than the threshold value of the fourth temperature control switch 21, an internal circuit of the fourth temperature control switch 21 is automatically disconnected, and at the moment, a signal of the sixth port 33 is an open circuit signal, which indicates that the state of the light receiver 6 is abnormal; when the residual laser is proper, the temperature of the light receiver 6 is lower than the threshold value of the fourth temperature control switch 21, the internal circuit of the fourth temperature control switch 21 is kept closed, and the signal of the sixth port 33 is a pass signal, which indicates that the state of the light receiver 6 is normal. When optical elements inside the optical shutter are damaged, a large amount of stray light is generated, meanwhile, when laser cannot be completely coupled into a fiber core of the output optical fiber, leaked laser also generates stray light, for the optical shutter with bearing power of ten thousand watts, the power of the stray light can reach hundreds of watts to kilowatts, and the optical fiber and optical shutter devices are easily burnt, so that the first photoelectric detector 26 and the second photoelectric detector 27 are used for detecting the size of the stray light inside the optical shutter and respectively monitoring the laser coupling states of the first output optical fiber 11 and the second output optical fiber 12. Controlling laser to be output from the first output optical fiber 11, when stray light inside the optical shutter is weak, the size of scattered light detected by the first photoelectric detector 26 is lower than a threshold value set by the optical shutter, and at this time, a signal of the ninth port 36 is a pass signal, which indicates that optical elements inside the optical shutter are not damaged and the laser is coupled into a fiber core of the first output optical fiber 11 for transmission, no laser leaks and the coupling state is good; when stray light inside the optical gate is strong, the size of scattered light detected by the first photoelectric detector 26 is higher than a threshold set by the optical gate, and at this time, the signal of the ninth port 36 is an open-circuit signal, which indicates that optical elements inside the optical gate are damaged, or laser is not completely coupled into the fiber core of the first output optical fiber 11 for transmission, laser leakage occurs, and the coupling state is poor. Similarly, when the size of the scattered light detected by the second photodetector 27 is lower than the threshold set by the optical shutter, the signal of the seventh port 34 is a pass signal, which indicates that the optical elements inside the optical shutter are not damaged and the laser is coupled into the fiber core of the second output optical fiber 12 for transmission, and there is no laser leakage and the coupling state is good; when the scattered light detected by the second photodetector 27 is higher than the threshold set by the optical shutter, the signal of the seventh port 34 is an open-circuit signal, which indicates that the optical elements inside the optical shutter are damaged, or the laser is not completely coupled into the fiber core of the second output optical fiber 12 for transmission, and laser leakage occurs, and the coupling state is poor.
According to the feedback signals of the detectors, when the signals of the port I28, the port six 33, the port seven 34, the port eight 35, the port nine 36 and the port ten 37 are all passage signals, the state of the optical gate is normal; when at least one signal is an open circuit signal, the state of the optical gate is abnormal, and at this time, it is necessary to check whether each device of the optical gate is damaged and whether the optical fiber coupling state is good. The first port 28 signal determines whether the laser can output laser, when the optical gate state is normal, the first port 28 signal is a path, the path signal is transmitted to the control system of the laser through the circuit on the laser transmission optical fiber 1, and at this time, the user can control the laser to output laser; when the state of the optical shutter is abnormal, the signal of the first port 28 is cut off, and the cut-off signal is transmitted to the control system of the laser through the circuit on the laser transmission optical fiber 1, at this time, the user cannot control the laser to output laser, and the state of the optical shutter needs to be checked until the state of the optical shutter returns to normal.
The eleventh port 38 and the twelfth port 39 change the positions of the first mirror 4 and the second mirror 5 by controlling the rotation of the stepping motor. When the first output optical fiber 11 is required to output laser, the eleventh port 38 controls the first reflector 4 to move through the stepping motor; when the proximity switch 23 b detects the position of the first reflecting mirror 4, the stepping motor controlling the movement of the first reflecting mirror 4 stops rotating, and at this time, the first reflecting mirror 4 enters the light path to turn the laser to the channel where the first output optical fiber 11 is located. When the first output optical fiber 11 is not required to output laser, the eleventh port 38 controls the first reflector 4 to move through a stepping motor; when the proximity switch 22 detects the position of the first reflecting mirror 4, the stepping motor controlling the movement of the first reflecting mirror 4 stops rotating, and the first reflecting mirror 4 is withdrawn from the optical path. Similarly, when the second output optical fiber 12 is required to output laser, the twelfth port 39 controls the second reflecting mirror 5 to move through the stepping motor; when the proximity switch 25 No. four detects the position of the second reflecting mirror 5, the stepping motor controlling the movement of the second reflecting mirror 5 stops rotating, and at this time, the second reflecting mirror 5 enters the optical path to deflect the laser light to the channel where the second output optical fiber 12 is located. When the laser output by the second output optical fiber 12 is not needed, the No. twelve port 39 controls the second reflector 5 to move through a stepping motor; when the proximity switch 24 detects the position of the second reflecting mirror 5, the stepping motor controlling the movement of the second reflecting mirror 5 stops rotating, and the second reflecting mirror 5 withdraws from the optical path. Therefore, when the first mirror 4 enters the optical path and the second mirror 5 exits the optical path, the laser light is coupled into the first output optical fiber 11 for transmission. When the first mirror 4 is withdrawn from the optical path and the second mirror 5 is introduced into the optical path, the laser light is coupled into the second output optical fiber 12 for transmission. Therefore, the position of the reflector is detected through the proximity switch, each reflector can be accurately controlled to enter the light path or withdraw from the light path, switching of laser output inside the optical gate is achieved, and the repeated precision of the reflector after multiple times of switching can be guaranteed.
The first reflector 4, the first focusing mirror 7, the first output port 9, the second electrode plate 16, the second temperature control switch 19, the first proximity switch 22, the second proximity switch 23, the first photodetector 26, and the first output optical fiber 11 form a transmission channel of the optical gate, and the transmission channel can be expanded side by side according to the number of the transmission channel. The liquid crystal screen 14 displays the signal status of all the detectors, and can command the stepping motors controlling the first reflecting mirror 4 and the second reflecting mirror 5 to rotate so as to enable the first reflecting mirror 4 and the second reflecting mirror 5 to enter the optical path or withdraw the optical path.
