The purpose of this utility model is to utilize optical fiber sensing technology to design a kind of displacement transducer, this sensor is transformed to offset variable the pulse signal of light, measure field has only mechanical part and optical fiber and light, there is not power supply, the measuring accuracy height, good reliability, safety is specially adapted to measure the increase and decrease amount of the flammable and combustible liquids in the basin.
Structural principle of the present utility model is to allow the motion of object drive an encoder gear, utilizes light to determine the amount of spin of encoder gear by the number of times of encoder gear, thereby determines the amount of exercise of object.Design a probe socket, open an encoder gear groove in the centre of probe socket, the both sides of encoder gear groove are placed respectively and are sent light optical fiber and answer the smooth optic fibre on the probe socket, and the coding tooth of encoder gear moves in the encoder gear groove.Send an end of light optical fiber to connect light emitting devices, an end of answer the smooth optic fibre connects photoelectric conversion device, and encoder gear connects a gearing.
The gearing that moves through of object that will be measured during use is delivered to encoder gear;
The light that sends from light emitting devices enters probe socket by sending light optical fiber, and light enters the opposite side of probe socket by the encoder gear groove, is delivered to photoelectric conversion device after being received by answer the smooth optic fibre;
Because the feasible light by the encoder gear groove of the motion of encoder gear has part intercepted by the gear teeth of encoder gear, the signal that makes photoelectric conversion device receive is the discontinuous pulses formula, thereby data processing equipment calculates the amount of spin that the number of times that receives light calculates encoder gear according to the pulse signal of photoelectric conversion device.
The utility model utilizes light to come the displacement of Measuring Object by the pulse signal that code-wheel produces, and the measuring accuracy height is safe and reliable, and electricity is not on-site, is specially adapted to measure the increase and decrease amount of the flammable and combustible liquids in the basin.
With accompanying drawing the utility model is further described below:
Fig. 1 structure principle chart of the present utility model;
Fig. 2 measures the example of the variation of oil tank level with the utility model.
As shown in Figure 1, the utility model is by fibre-optical probe, code-wheel 12, light emitting devices 7 with send light optical fiber 6, photoelectric conversion device 9 and answer the smooth optic fibre 8 and data processing equipment 10 to form.
Wherein the structure of fibre-optical probe is that a probe socket 4 is arranged, open an encoder gear groove 11 in the centre of probe socket 4, the both sides of encoder gear groove 11 difference installing and locating seat 2 in the probe socket 4, in positioning seat 2, place convex lens 5 and optical fiber contact pins 1, penetrate respectively in the optical fiber contact pins 1 on both sides and send light optical fiber 6 and answer the smooth optic fibre 8, optical fiber contact pins 1 usefulness dog screw 3 is fixing.
Encoder gear 12 is installed in the appropriate location, makes the coding tooth of encoder gear 12 to move in encoder gear groove 11, encoder gear 12 connects a gearing 13.
Connect light emitting devices 7 at an end that send light optical fiber 6, the end connection photoelectric conversion device 9 at answer the smooth optic fibre 8 is connected to photoelectric conversion device 9 with data processing equipment 10.
The motion of object that will be measured during use is delivered to gearing 13, and the gearing 13 that moves through of object drives encoder gear 12 rotations;
Send light and by sending light optical fiber 6 to enter fibre-optical probe from light emitting devices 7, light planoconvex lens 5 focuses on the back to be passed through from encoder gear groove 11, the convex lens 5 that are positioned at another side are sent to photoelectric conversion device 9 by answer the smooth optic fibre 8 after light is focused on again, and photoelectric conversion device 9 converts light signal to electric signal and send data processing equipment 10 to do overall treatment.
Because the motion of encoder gear 12, feasible light by encoder gear groove 11 has part intercepted by the gear teeth of encoder gear 12, the signal that makes photoelectric conversion device 9 receive is the discontinuous pulses formula, thereby data processing equipment 10 calculates the amount of spin that the number of times that receives light is converted out encoder gear 12 according to the pulse signal of photoelectric conversion device 9.
Fig. 2 is used to measure the example that oil tank level changes, a balance reel case 17 is installed at oil tank 22 tops, big reel 18 and rap wheel 19 are installed in the balance reel case 17, on the big reel 18 around on the measuring steel wire rope, measuring steel wire rope end is fastened float 20, on the rap wheel 19 around on the weight wire rope, weight wire rope end is fastened weight 21.
