Embodiment Construction

[0024] The metal cord-like material has a certain strength and meets certain requirements of ductility, deformability, machinability and corrosion resistance. The metal wires are steel wires, or metal wires made of metals such as copper, aluminum, and stainless steel. As shown in the figure: 1 steel wire bundle, 2 sheathed optical fiber, 3 coating layer, 4 cladding layer, 5 optical fiber core. Its implementation process is:

[0025] (1) Preparation of sensing fiber core

[0026] The sensing fiber core used in the present invention is common single-mode or multimode fiber core, tight package structure, and its diameter is 1 / 3 of the desired cable diameter, or slightly larger, so that can guarantee internal fiber core and The outer metal wires are in close contact and deform simultaneously. The outer cladding of the optical fiber has a certain degree of elasticity, which can buffer the external pressure and prevent the core from being squeezed and damaged during the strand...

Abstract

Metal-based cable-shaped distributed optical fiber sensor, the central sensing fiber with a sheath is twisted and wrapped around the core by six surrounding metal wires to form a metal-based cable distributed optical fiber sensor. In particular, the sensing optical fiber with the sheath has the same diameter as the metal wire, and is in tight contact with the surrounding 6 metal wires. The outer steel wire bundle is wrapped around the central sensing optical fiber in a helical form, and the central sensing optical fiber is kept straight and not entangled. The optical fiber (cable) located in the center of the cable is tightly wound helically by six steel wires with matching diameters to form a metal cable body that can directly sense strain and temperature. The sensing optical cable of this structure not only senses the close contact between the optical fiber and the peripheral reinforced steel wire and the object to be measured, but also realizes the distributed monitoring of the stress and strain of the steel wire and the surrounding object to be monitored, and uses high-strength steel wire to protect the delicate The fragile sensing optical fiber has significantly improved its tensile strength, impact resistance and bending resistance.
