Description
Technical field
Fiber-optic grating sensor encapsulation field is the utility model is related to, more particularly to one kind is used for structural mechanics fiber grating
Sensor-packaging structure.
Background technology
Fiber-optic grating sensor has two biggest advantages:First, information is to wavelength absolute encoding;Second, belong to Intrinsical
Sensor.Therefore, the outstanding advantage of fiber-optic grating sensor is:Passive intrinsic safety, small and light, be not afraid of thunderbolt, anti-electromagnetism is done
Disturb, many reference amounts at the same measure, overlength distance transmission, precision is high, property is stable, environmental suitability is strong.In recent years, fiber grating passes
Sensor is widely used in industries such as petrochemical industry, electric power, traffic, highway bridges.
The core sensing element of optical fiber Bragg raster structural mechanics sensor is optical fiber Bragg raster, existing frequently-used quarter
Grid method is to peel off to write grating by phase mask after optical fiber coating, but will certainly be in light during coat is peeled off
Fine surface leaves permanent mechanical crackle and causes mechanical damage, can substantially reduce the tensile strength of optical fiber.
Due to the sensitive fragile characteristic of fiber grating element, its encapsulation technology, which turns into, makes optical fiber grating structure mechanics biography
Key technology in sensor engineer applied.Existing frequently-used packaged type includes:1) with special epoxide-resin glue by optical fiber light
Grid are encapsulated in metal tube or on sheet metal.But following defect be present:First, epoxide-resin glue belongs to organic matter, easy to aging point
Solution, is unfavorable for the long-term use of adverse circumstances;2) encapsulated with glue, but because the creep of glue causes long-term use of transducer calibration
The phenomenon of " zero point " drift, limits its use in engineering project;3) it is using low-melting glass+common to also have a kind of encapsulation
The form of grating, tensile strength are only 0.4kg, i.e., can be broken, and seriously limit the application of FBG sensor.
At present optical fiber grating structure mechanics sensor encapsulate make during in order to ensure that finished product sensor possesses one
Fixed tensile strength, the mode of epoxy resin embedding adhesive is largely employed, i.e., by the optical fiber light of common acrylate coat
Grid are directly bonded in surface of elastomer with epoxide-resin glue, and test purpose is realized by its cooperative transformation with elastomer.Should
(wherein, 1 is elastic matrix to the structure of epoxide-resin glue embedding as shown in Figure 1;2 be grating;3 be casting glue), but this use
Following defect be present in the optical fiber grating structure mechanics sensor of epoxide-resin glue embedding:Because the creep of epoxide-resin glue in itself is special
Property, can be with epoxide-resin glue using the optical fiber grating structure mechanics sensor of the packaging technology during long-term use
Creep drives the fiber grating for being encapsulated in inside that the drift that creep causes sensor wavelength zero point occurs together, ultimately results in sensing
Device failure can not use.The creep test result of this optical fiber grating structure mechanics sensor using epoxide-resin glue embedding is such as
Shown in Fig. 2, two fiber gratings are put together side by side in experiment, a pre-stretching 1.5nm, encapsulated using epoxide-resin glue,
Other one static to be placed on side, experiences identical temperature, does temperature-compensating.In the experiment that the cycle is half a year, remember daily
One group of data is recorded, data processing uses below equation:
In above formula, λ0:The initial wavelength of test gratings, unit:nm;
λ:The centre wavelength of test gratings, unit:nm;
λT:The actual measurement wavelength of temperature compensation sensor, unit:nm;
The initial wavelength of temperature compensation sensor, unit:nm;
BT:The temperature coefficient of temperature compensation sensor, unit:℃/pm;
Bε:The temperature coefficient of test gratings, unit:℃/pm;
Obtained data are to remove the wavelength after temperature influences, in the test that the cycle is half a year, daily one group of record
Data, drawn after arrangement:Using epoxide-resin glue test gratings under static state, removing temperature influences, and wavelength persistently drops
It is low.For the sensor of this encapsulating structure due to epoxide-resin glue creep, the wavelength persistently reduced will be used as measurement error to continue shadow
Ring the performance of sensor.
There is another to use the packaged type of low-melting glass welding at present, naked grating both ends are welded on elastomer
It is upper that (coat of ordinary optic fibre is acrylate, and general 120 DEG C of heatproof, the melt temperature of low melting point glass for bonding is 270 DEG C.
Have a problem that:During welding, low-melting glass not yet melts, but acrylate-coated layer has been burned out.
So low-melting glass must be welded on bare fibre by common technique, cause optical fiber more crisp.) low-melting glass is higher with it
Chemical stability and the performance such as bond strength, solve creep problem caused by epoxide-resin glue characteristic.But such encapsulation
Structure draws another question again, i.e., the tensile strength of packaged optical fiber grating structure mechanics sensor is relatively low, normal light
Grid are needed first to peel off coat when scribing, and mechanical crackle will certainly be produced in stripping process, and intensity is difficult to be guaranteed.
For the low-melting glass packaged type of ordinary optic fibre grating, inventor has carried out substantial amounts of strength test, and experimental data proves
Its tensile strength is 0.4kg or so, i.e., is about 4.5nm with the wavelength movement of the fiber-optic grating sensor of its encapsulation, limits very much
The engineer applied of fiber-optic grating sensor, What is more can all damage in transportation.Ordinary optic fibre grating tensile strength is real
Result is tested as shown in figure 3, commonly (wherein, 41 be Bragg gratings to the structure of grating as shown in Figure 4;42 be fiber core;43 are
Covering;44 be mechanical crackle;45 be acrylate-coated layer;A is incident light;B penetrates light to return).
