- the slit-shaped intake port 5 is provided along the vicinity of the ceiling of the reaction chamber side wall on the ru side, and the exhaust port 6 is provided on the side wall surface opposite to the intake port 5, so that the airflow from the intake port 5 is reduced.
- the air curtain effect that flows to the exhaust port 6 along the ceiling is obtained, and soot adhering to the ceiling can be significantly reduced.
- Patent Document 1 cannot reduce soot adhesion to the side wall of the reaction chamber.
- Patent Document 1 JP-A-2002-193633
- the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and is a porous glass that can prevent soot from adhering to the upper surface (ceiling) of a reaction chamber and reduce peeling and dropping of upper surface force.
- the purpose is to provide a base metal manufacturing device. This object is achieved by a combination of features described in the independent claims. Also, the dependent claims define further advantageous embodiments of the present invention.
- the manufacturing apparatus for a porous glass base material of the present invention includes a starting member vertically arranged and a raw material gas.
- a device for producing a porous glass base material by depositing glass fine particles generated by a flame hydrolysis reaction of a gas a plurality of glass particles are formed along the ceiling of the reaction chamber on the upper part of the side wall of the reaction chamber provided with a deposition parner. It is characterized by having an intake port.
- the manufacturing apparatus of the present invention can be implemented in various modes.
- the air inlet is installed on a wall facing the porous glass base material, or the air inlet is provided on the left and right edges of the side wall on which the deposition parner is installed. It can be provided in a slit shape along.
- an exhaust port is provided on a side wall facing the side wall on which the deposition parner is installed, and the width of the side wall provided with the exhaust port is made larger than the width of the side wall provided with the intake port. Preferably, it is narrow.
- one of the inlets is provided on a side wall on the same side as the outlet, so that the distance between the lowermost part of the inlet and the uppermost part of the outlet is at least 30 mm.
- the ceiling and side walls of the reaction chamber through which the airflow sucked from the air inlet flows preferably have flat surfaces.
- the manufacturing apparatus of the present invention having the above-described configuration, suppresses soot from adhering to the ceiling and side walls of the reaction chamber, and even if the soot that has adhered has been peeled off and dropped, the porous glass base material Adhesion to the substrate is prevented, the number of bubbles in the product can be reduced, and a high-quality optical fiber preform can be obtained.
- FIG. 1 is a view showing a method for manufacturing a porous glass base material, wherein (a) is a VAD method, (b) is an external VAD method, and (c) is a schematic longitudinal section illustrating an OVD method.
- FIG. 1 is a view showing a method for manufacturing a porous glass base material, wherein (a) is a VAD method, (b) is an external VAD method, and (c) is a schematic longitudinal section illustrating an OVD method.
- FIG. 2 is a schematic vertical sectional view showing a conventional apparatus for manufacturing a porous glass base material.
- FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating an airflow state at a low intake air level of the manufacturing apparatus shown in FIG. 2.
- FIG. 4 is a schematic view showing an example of the manufacturing apparatus of the present invention, in which (a) is a top view (omitted with a wrench), (b) is a schematic longitudinal sectional view, and (c) is a right side view (a wrench). Is omitted).
- (a) is a top view (omitted with a wrench)
- (b) is a schematic longitudinal sectional view
- (c) is a right side view (a wrench). Is omitted).
- the manufacturing apparatus of the present invention is characterized in that a plurality of air inlets are provided along a ceiling of the reaction chamber on an upper portion of a side wall of the reaction chamber having a deposition parner. It is preferable that this intake port is provided on a side wall opposed to the porous glass base material. As a result, the vortex as shown in FIG. 3 is not generated, and fresh intake gas flows over the entire ceiling surface, so that floating soot does not reach the ceiling surface.
- an inlet is provided in a slit shape along the left and right edges of the side wall on which the deposition side is provided, thereby stabilizing the airflow in the reaction chamber and further attaching soot to the side wall of the reaction chamber. Can also be significantly suppressed.
- an exhaust port is provided on a side wall opposite to the side wall on which the deposition parner is installed, and By making the width of the side wall provided with the exhaust port smaller than the width of the side wall provided with the intake port, even if the linear velocity of the air flow on the exhaust side is increased, the linear velocity of the air flow on the It can be slowed down and the disturbance of the Pana flame can be reduced.
- one of the intake ports is provided on the same wall surface as the exhaust port, it is preferable to provide a gap of 30 mm or more between the lowermost part of the intake port and the uppermost part of the exhaust port. This is because, when the intake port and the exhaust port are too close, the airflow flowing from the intake port along the ceiling is disturbed by the exhaust flow, the air curtain effect is reduced, and the effect of preventing soot adhesion to the ceiling is reduced.
- the top and side surfaces of the reaction chamber through which the airflow sucked from the air inlet flows are preferably formed as flat surfaces.
- the reason for this is that if the side wall is made up of a spherical or cylindrical curved surface with a small radius of curvature of about 200 to 400 mm, the inspired airflow will not flow along the wall surface, but will form a vortex, causing the airflow in the reaction chamber. The air curtain effect cannot be fully exerted!
- a porous glass base material was manufactured using the manufacturing apparatus shown in FIG.
- Fig. 4 (a) is a top view of the manufacturing apparatus (without a parner), (b) is a schematic longitudinal sectional view, and (c) is a right side view (with no parner).
- this device is provided with an intake port 5a along the ceiling above the left and right side walls facing each other, and the lower end of the left intake port 5a and the upper end of the exhaust port 6 Are separated by 30mm. Further, as shown by the shaded portion in FIG. 4 (c), in addition to the intake port 5a provided along the ceiling, the right side wall has slit-shaped intake ports 5b along the left and right edges, respectively. Is provided.
- a core parner 2a, a core heating burner 2b, and a clad parner 2c are installed, respectively, and glass fine particles are deposited.
- the porous glass base material 4 is pulled upward through the upper chamber 9 as it grows.
- deposition was performed with the amount of glass particles synthesized and supplied in all the panners set to 700 g / hr.
- the air velocity was set at 1.5 m / sec , forming an airflow layer along the ceiling and side walls. Glass particles that could not adhere to the deposition surface of the porous glass base material 4 were exhausted along with the exhaust gas.
- the gas to be taken in was air in a clean room.
- a SUS316 wire mesh was attached to the intake port as a means for applying pressure loss for adjusting the intake linear velocity.
- FIG. 4 is a view showing an example of the manufacturing apparatus of the present invention.
- This apparatus is not limited to the VAD method performed in Example 1, but may be used in the external VAD method and the external OVD method.
- the configuration of the present invention can be applied.
- a glass preform for optical fibers excellent in optical properties with very few bubbles can be supplied.
