Abstract

The present invention relates to an optical fiber weighing system which belongs to the technical field of weighing micro-bent optical fibers. A micro-bent optical fiber weighing sensor 1 is connected with a light transmitter 3 and a light receiver 4 through optical fibers 2 conducting optical signals, and the light transmitter 3 transmits constant optical signals; the light receiver 4 converts weighing optical signals transmitted by the micro-bent optical fiber weighing sensor 1 into electrical signals, and the light transmitter 3 and the light receiver 4 are respectively connected with a drive circuit 5 of a light receiving and transmitting device. The drive circuit 5 of a light receiving and transmitting device is connected with a high-speed analogue converter 6 which is connected with a data processing system 7 carrying out data processing and compensation for digital signals. The present invention has the advantages of low cost and convenient carrying, and not only can realize rapidly weighing and measuring other parameters under flammable and explosive environment, but also can realize remote alarm and monitoring.

Description

The optical fiber weighing system
Technical field
The present invention and a kind of micro-bending optical fiber weighing and sensing system especially can realize rapid weighing under various rugged surroundings and inflammable and explosive environment, also can realize portable and remote monitoring.
Background technology
Present known weighing and sensing system mainly is the electronic-weighing sensor-based system.This electronic system is difficult to use in strong-electromagnetic field, deep-etching, inflammable and explosive applied environment.The applied environment bigger to what humidity, this system must be equipped with vacuum sealing system.The deficiency of existing electronic-weighing sensor-based system comprises that antijamming capability is low, mechanism's complexity, cost height, response speed waits slowly, and simultaneously, this electronic-weighing sensor-based system generally need be furnished with the metal table top, thereby volume and weight is all bigger, especially unfavorable what portable use.
Fiber optic microbend is meant the microbend of optical fiber generation under external force, and when bending surpassed critical buckling, the light signal that transmits in optical fiber produced leakage loss in the place of bending, and bending lossy more is serious more.Utilize this principle can design various stress/pressure transducers.Fibre system has the advantage that overcomes electronic-weighing sensor-based system deficiency.The microbend phenomenon of optical fiber just be it is found that in the past as far back as decades.But up to the present still there is not fiber optic microbend weighing and sensing system on the market.
Summary of the invention
In order to overcome the deficiency of existing weighing and sensing system, the invention provides optical fiber weighing and sensing of new generation system.The technical solution adopted in the present invention is: micro-bending optical fiber LOAD CELLS 1 links to each other with optical receiver 4 with optical transmitting set 3 by the optical fiber 2 of light conducting signal, optical transmitting set 3 emission constant light signals, the light signal of weighing that optical receiver 4 sends micro-bending optical fiber LOAD CELLS 1 converts electric signal to, this optical transmitting set 3 is connected optical transceiver driving circuit 5 respectively with optical receiver 4, this optical transceiver driving circuit 5 is connected with high speed analog converter 6, and this high speed analog converter 6 is connected with the data handling system 7 of digital signal being carried out data processing and compensation.The course of work is as follows: when weighing, thereby resin cartridge 14 and resin rodlet 13 make optical fiber generation curved transition on the resin rodlet 13 in distortion under the compressing of gravity, realize microbend, the light signal of micro-bending optical fiber LOAD CELLS 1 links to each other with optical receiver 4 with optical transmitting set 3 by optical fiber 2; The constant light signal is sent into micro-bending optical fiber LOAD CELLS 1 from optical transmitting set 3 by optical fiber 2, the light signal of weighing feeds back to optical receiver 4 and converts electric signal to by optical fiber 2, amplify by optical transceiver driving circuit 5 then, become digital signal through high speed analog converter 6 again, these digital signals are carried out data processing to data handling system 7 and compensation reaches the purpose of weighing.
The loss of transmitting optical signal increases with the reinforcement of fiber optic microbend in the optical fiber, makes its load-bearing bending by the extra package processing to optical fiber, also is referred to as elastic body.The micro-bending optical fiber LOAD CELLS mainly is to be made of optical fiber and elastic body.Transmitting optical signal comes from optical transmitting set in the optical fiber, elastic body is the load-bearing conversion of signals microbend of optical fiber, and then cause the loss of light signal and convert electric signal to by optical receiver, become digital signal through analog converter again, these digital signals are carried out data processing to data handling system and compensation reaches the purpose of weighing.The selection of sensitivity range of weighing is by realizing to the selection of optical fiber and to elastomeric design and processing.Optical fiber is thin more, and sensitivity is low more; The digital aperture of optical fiber is big more, and sensitivity is low more; Bending radius is big more, and sensitivity is low more.The thickness of resin rodlet 13 is by the decision of the bending radius of optical fiber, the bending radius that the radius of resin rodlet 13 must big what optical fiber.The winding cycle of optical fiber 2, short more then sensitivity was high more.The thickness of resin cartridge 14 and protection intensity, sensitivity, and linear response all has certain relation.
The mathematic(al) mode that data handling system adopted can change according to the characteristics of different application.If static measurement, data processing can adopt simple average treatment pattern; If measure fast, data processing need adopt complicated integral operation and statistical calculation pattern.This data handling system will be finished temperature drift and the compensation of nonlinearity to measuring system simultaneously.In some special applications, because of having stronger data handling system, this system can provide other parameter simultaneously.
The invention has the beneficial effects as follows: cost is low, and is portable, can be in various rugged surroundings, and the measurement that inflammable and explosive environment is realized rapid weighing and other parameter down also can realize remote alarms and monitoring.
