本発明は、光ファイバの線引きに用いる光ファイバ線引

を流し、炉芯管2内に空気が入らないようにし、かかる
状態で光ファイバfnU3から線引きして光ファイバ9
を製造していた。[Prior Art] Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 3, optical fibers are drawn using a furnace body 1, a furnace core tube 2 disposed above and below the furnace body 1, and a furnace core tube 2 disposed on the outer periphery of the furnace core tube 2. It consists of a heating furnace main body 5 consisting of a heater 4 made of carbon or the like that heats the optical fiber preform 3 in the furnace core tube 2, and a shutter lid 7 that seals the optical fiber outlet 6 of the heating furnace main body 5. Using an optical fiber line heating furnace, the optical fiber preform 3 is heated with the heater 4, and the furnace core tube 2 is heated through the gas supply line 8 provided in the furnace body 1.
Inside, inert gas is flowed from the lower gas supply port 8A to the upper part to prevent air from entering the furnace core tube 2, and in this state, the optical fiber fnU3 is drawn to form the optical fiber 9.
was manufacturing.
特に、炉芯管2内で下から上へ不活性ガスを流すと、ダ
ストを上に排出できるので、光ファイバ9にダストが付
着せず、光ファイバ9の強度が良くなる。Particularly, by flowing the inert gas from the bottom to the top within the furnace core tube 2, dust can be discharged upward, so that the optical fiber 9 is not covered with dust and the strength of the optical fiber 9 is improved.
しかしながら、シャッタM7には光ファイバ通過孔7B

の流れが不安定どなる。そして、この流れの不安定さに
より線引きされている光ファイバ9の外径に変動が生じ
てしまうという問題が出てきた。However, the shutter M7 has an optical fiber passage hole 7B.
Therefore, the gas supplied into the furnace body 1 from the gas supply port 8A does not necessarily all flow upwards as shown in FIG. leaks out of the furnace. As a result, the flow of gas leaking out of the furnace collides with the flow of rising air 11 entering from outside the furnace into the furnace through the optical fiber passage hole 7B.
The flow becomes unsteady, and the flow near the so-called optical fiber forming part where the optical fiber 9 is drawn from the optical fiber preform 3 becomes unstable. A problem has arisen in that the outer diameter of the optical fiber 9 being drawn varies due to the instability of this flow.
そこで、炉外からの空気の侵入を抑えるため光ファイバ
出口6でのシール性の向上が望まれ、例えば第5図や第

10の通過時にシャッタ羽根7Aを開き、通過後これを
閉じるようになっている。Therefore, in order to suppress the intrusion of air from outside the furnace, it is desired to improve the sealing performance at the optical fiber outlet 6, and for example, a shutter lid 7 consisting of shutter blades 7A as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 has been proposed. There is. These are the heating furnaces of this type.
When first pulling out the optical fiber 9 from the optical fiber base material 3, a glass weight 10 with an outer diameter of about 15 InIIl is attached to the lower end of the optical fiber member 3 as shown in FIG. Since the weight 9 is pulled out of the furnace to start drawing, the shutter blade 7A is opened when the weight 10 passes by using a two-part structure as shown in Fig. 5 or a constriction structure as shown in Fig. 6. , it is supposed to be closed after passing.
しかし、これらの方法は共にシール性が完全でないため

る。However, both of these methods do not provide perfect sealing, so as an improvement plan, as described in JP-A-62-36039, a diffuser block is provided at the optical fiber exit, and the optical fiber passage hole is closed. A method has been proposed that blows gas out of the furnace to prevent air from entering from outside the furnace.

漏れるガス量はより多くなる傾向にあり、この問題はい
っそう深刻になってきている。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In this conventional method, the gas supply port is installed near the optical fiber passage hole, that is, close to the atmosphere, and the gas is blown out. There was a problem in that a large amount of gas went out, and as a result, an unsteady flow was created that was separate from the upward airflow 11 indicated by the arrow in FIG. 3, and this caused a change in the outer diameter of the optical fiber 9. . Moreover, as drawing speeds have become even faster these days, the amount of gas leaking out of the furnace along with the traveling optical fiber 9 tends to increase, making this problem even more serious.
本発明の目的は、炉の下部出口から大気へ漏れるガス量
をできるだけ小さくし、炉内のガスの流れをより安定さ
せ、もって外径変動の少ない光ファイバを製造できる光
ファイバ線引用加熱炉を提供することにある。An object of the present invention is to provide an optical fiber wire heating furnace that can minimize the amount of gas leaking into the atmosphere from the lower outlet of the furnace, stabilize the flow of gas in the furnace, and thereby manufacture optical fibers with less variation in outer diameter. It is about providing.

置より下方に設けられていることを特徴とする。[Means for Solving the Problems] To explain in detail the present invention for achieving the above object, the present invention includes a gas supply port provided in the lower part of the furnace body, and this gas supply port allows the supply of gas from the lower part of the furnace body to the upper part. In an optical fiber drawing heating furnace that manufactures an optical fiber by heating and drawing an optical fiber preform in a heating furnace main body in which a gas is flowed, the light is A lower outlet nozzle, which has a nozzle diameter smaller than the weight when the fiber is drawn out and whose length in the axial direction is 10 times or more the nozzle diameter, is provided below the position of the gas supply port. It is characterized by
[作用1
このような下部出口ノズルを設けると、該下部出口ノズ
ルはそのノズル口径の10倍以上の良さを有しているの
で、ノズル内の流体抵抗が増し、もってガス供給口から
炉内へ供給されるガスの炉外への漏れを少なくできる。[Effect 1] When such a lower outlet nozzle is provided, since the lower outlet nozzle has a strength more than 10 times the nozzle diameter, the fluid resistance inside the nozzle increases, and the flow from the gas supply port to the inside of the furnace increases. Leakage of supplied gas to the outside of the furnace can be reduced.
その結果、炉内のガスの流れ(この場合、上向きの流れ
)が安定し、光ファイバの外径変動が極めて小さくなる
。As a result, the flow of gas in the furnace (in this case, upward flow) is stabilized, and fluctuations in the outer diameter of the optical fiber are extremely small.
[実施例]
以下、本発明の実施例を第1図を参照して詳細に説明す
る。なお、前述した第3図及び第4図と対応する部分に
は同一符号をつけて示している。[Example] Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG. Note that parts corresponding to those in FIGS. 3 and 4 described above are designated by the same reference numerals.
本実施例の光ファイバ線引用加熱炉は、加熱炉本体5の
下部における光ファイバ出口6に、光ファイバ9の口出
し時の重り10(第2図参照)より小径で且つ軸方向の
ノズル長さしが、該ノズル口径りの10倍以上となって
いる下部出口ノズル12を、ガス供給口8Aの位置より
下方に接続している。The optical fiber line heating furnace of this embodiment has a nozzle having a diameter smaller than that of the weight 10 (see FIG. 2) at the time of leading out the optical fiber 9 and a nozzle length in the axial direction. However, the lower outlet nozzle 12, which has a diameter more than 10 times the nozzle diameter, is connected below the position of the gas supply port 8A.
このような下部出口ノズル12は、そのノズル長さしを
、該ノズルの口径りの10倍以上とじているため、下部
出口ノズル12内の流体抵抗が増1ノ、炉外へのガスの
漏れ量が少なくでき、その結果炉内の流れを安定させる
ことができ、もって光ファイバ9の外径変動を小さくす
ることができる。Since such a lower outlet nozzle 12 has a nozzle length that is more than 10 times the diameter of the nozzle, the fluid resistance inside the lower outlet nozzle 12 increases and gas leaks to the outside of the furnace. The amount can be reduced, and as a result, the flow in the furnace can be stabilized, thereby making it possible to reduce fluctuations in the outer diameter of the optical fiber 9.
ノズル口径りは例えば3sとし、ノズル長さしは例えば
755mとする。このノズル長さLは、線速が速くなれ
ばそれに応じて長くする必要がある。The nozzle diameter is, for example, 3s, and the nozzle length is, for example, 755m. This nozzle length L needs to be increased as the linear velocity increases.
例えば、線速が600771/分のときにはノズル良さ
Lを200M程度に良くする。For example, when the linear velocity is 600771/min, the nozzle quality L is set to about 200M.
第2図は、ノズル口径りとノズル長さしとの関係を示し
たものである。図において、O印はファイバ径変動なし
、Δ印はファイバ径変動ありを示す。図から明らかなよ
うに、L/D≧10とすると、ファイバ径変動が生じて
いない。FIG. 2 shows the relationship between nozzle diameter and nozzle length. In the figure, the O symbol indicates no fiber diameter variation, and the Δ symbol indicates fiber diameter variation. As is clear from the figure, when L/D≧10, no fiber diameter variation occurs.
なお、ノズル口径りを口出し時の重りより小径としてい
る理由は、これ以上の大きさにすると、ノズル長さしが
非常に大きくなり、現実的ではないからである。また、
当然のことながらノズル口径りを重りより小径としたこ
とにより、本発明の場合下部出口ノズルは軸方向に2つ
割りタイプになっている。The reason why the nozzle diameter is made smaller than the weight at the time of outlet is that if it is made larger than this, the nozzle length becomes very large, which is not practical. Also,
Naturally, by making the nozzle diameter smaller than the weight, in the case of the present invention, the lower outlet nozzle is split into two in the axial direction.
また、前記実施例ではノズルの形状としてノズル入口か
ら出口までその内径が一定のもののみ示したが、下方に
むかってその内径が縮小する、いわゆるテーパ状になっ
ているものでもよい。この場合、ノズル長さしは前記テ
ーバノズルの平均内径の10倍とすればよい。Further, in the above embodiments, only the shape of the nozzle is shown in which the inner diameter is constant from the nozzle inlet to the outlet, but a so-called tapered shape, in which the inner diameter decreases toward the bottom, may also be used. In this case, the nozzle length may be 10 times the average inner diameter of the Taber nozzle.
さらにまた、光ファイバ9の固化形成位置、すなわちほ
ぼ最終外径になる位置をして前記下部出口ノズル12の
ノズル内に存在させると、光ファイバ9の溶融部周囲の
ガスの流れが安定になるという理由により、より外径変
動を抑える上で効果的である。Furthermore, if the solidified formation position of the optical fiber 9, that is, the position where the outer diameter is approximately the final one, is placed in the nozzle of the lower outlet nozzle 12, the flow of gas around the molten part of the optical fiber 9 becomes stable. For this reason, it is more effective in suppressing outer diameter fluctuations.
加えて本発明によれば、ノズル口径を重りよりも小径に
しさえすればよく、極端に小さくしなくとも効果は十分
期待できる。そのためノズル内面と走行する光ファイバ
の接触等も防止できる等々の効果も期待できる。In addition, according to the present invention, it is only necessary to make the nozzle diameter smaller than the weight, and sufficient effects can be expected even if the nozzle diameter is not made extremely small. Therefore, effects such as being able to prevent contact between the inner surface of the nozzle and the running optical fiber can be expected.

By providing a lower outlet nozzle with a diameter smaller than the fiber outlet weight and with an axial length of at least 10 times the nozzle diameter, leakage of gas inside the furnace can be reduced, and gas leakage from outside the furnace can be reduced. Since it is also possible to prevent air from entering, it is possible to stabilize the flow of gas within the furnace. As a result, it is possible to manufacture an optical fiber with extremely small outer diameter variations.
