Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of sensors, and in particular relates to a dynamic torque optical fiber sensing device based on a double-light reflector. Background technique [0002] In mechanical transmission systems, most methods of measuring torque and power on rotating shafts use strain gauges attached to the shaft. The data of the strain gauge is transmitted to the detection device through a slip ring or wireless transmission. The former is worn and cannot be used in flammable and explosive places. The latter needs to install a battery on the rotating shaft to provide power for the test components and wireless transmitters. Moreover, the use in an environment with strong electromagnetic interference will be disturbed, which limits the application range of strain gauge torque measuring devices. [0003] A newer test system is to use the pulse delay method to measure the torsion angle of the rotating shaft, so as to achieve the purpos...
