Abstract

The utility mode relates to a two-way torsional optical-fiber sensor, pertaining to a novel design of sensor. The sensor comprises an optical fiber, a torsional beam, a fixed end, a thin metal wire, a light source, an optical power meter, an optical-fiber connector, etc. One end of the cylindrical torsional beam is fixed, and the other end is free; the edge of the thin metal wire is obliquely bonded at a location near the free end of the torsional beam, in an angle of Theta#-[1](0 degree less than Theta#-[1] less than 9 degree) (in axial direction) with the torsional beam; the edge of the optical fiber is in an angle of Theta#-[f](0 degree less than less than Theta#-[f] less than 9degree) (in axial direction) with the torsional beam and reversely wound with the metal wire by a constant pitch; both ends of the wound optical ring are bonded onto the surface of the torsional beam by agglomerant; the two ends of the optical fiber wound on the torsional beam are connected to the light source and detector respectively. When the free end of the torsional beam receives the torque action, the torsional beam generates torsional strain and causes slight bending of the proportion where the optical fiber wound on the torsional beam contacts the metal wire. When the value of optical power loss is measured, the torsional state (torsional angle, the strength and direction of torque or torsional stress) can be sensed in two directions (clockwise and anti-clockwise) very precisely.

Background technology
Optical fiber is a kind of novel light transmission and light sensing photonic device.Optical fiber is used for sensing technology, and promptly Fibre Optical Sensor is used for measurements such as strain (or stress), displacement, temperature, has light, flexible strong, convenient, sensitive, the many good characteristics such as precision is high, acid and alkali-resistance, anti-electromagnetic interference (EMI) of volume.Utilize modes such as bending loss of optical fiber, fibre optic interferometer, be equipped with in good time tracking control system, distributed, long distance that Fibre Optical Sensor can carry out, multiparameter sensing, aspect detections such as the structure of compound substance (as Smart), deformation, having important use is worth, be a kind of Dynamic Non-Destruction Measurement of novelty, now be widely used in every field such as industry, building industry, national defence and scientific research.But known Fibre Optical Sensor all is that result for retrieval shows also do not have a kind of employing to turn round girder construction at present, utilize optical fiber to reverse the optical fiber bidirectional torsion sensor of sensing at the detection of physical quantitys such as stress, pressure, displacement, temperature.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of this utility model is intended to design a kind of sensor that utilizes the optical fiber sensing to reverse.This sensor can be used for various occasions and the place that (torsional angle, moment of torsion or twisting stress) reversed in the needs measurement.Its technical scheme is: this novel optical fiber bidirectional torsion sensor, it comprises optical fiber, turns round beam, light source, fine wire, light power meter, optical fiber connector etc., it is characterized in that fine wire along with torsion beam axle to angled θ lOblique sticking near turning round the beam free end; Optical fiber along with torsion beam axle to angled θ fAnd constant pitch and tinsel oppositely twine, and the two ends of the fiber optic loop of winding stick on cementing agent and turn round on the beam surface; Being wrapped in the two ends of turning round the optical fiber on the beam is connected with light power meter with light source respectively.
At first select a homogeneous, symmetry, isotropy, can under the distorting stress effect, turn round beam, the one end is fixed other end freedom around the Elastic Cylindrical of axis rotation; Then, with a fine wire along with torsion beam axle to angled θ l(0 °<θ l<90 °) oblique sticking near turning round the beam free end; And then, with optical fiber along with torsion beam axle to angled θ f(0 °<θ f<90 °) and constant pitch and tinsel oppositely twine, the two ends of the fiber optic loop of winding stick on and turn round on the beam surface with cementing agent (as seccotine 102,504,502 etc.); At last, being wrapped in the two ends of turning round the optical fiber on the beam is connected with light power meter with light source respectively.
When turning round the beam free end and be subjected to torsional interaction, turn round twisting strain that beam produces and make and be wrapped in the optical fiber of turning round on the beam and produce little bending with the tinsel contact position.Along with the variation of moment of torsion, the micro curving rate peak value of pulse of optical fiber, width increase or reduce, and cause the microbending loss of optical fiber also different thus.In the use, as long as record the size of the optical power loss value of optical fiber, by following microbending loss with reverse (torsional angle, moment of torsion or twisting stress) relational expression, can be two-way the twisting states (size and Orientation of torsional angle, moment of torsion or twisting stress) of (clockwise with counterclockwise) high-precision sensing measured body.
