Embodiment 1

[0025] see figure 1 and figure 2 , the tapered fiber optic temperature sensor comprises a tapered fiber optic temperature sensing probe (2), characterized in that the input end of the tapered fiber optic temperature sensing probe (2) is connected to a light source (1); the tapered fiber optic The output end of the temperature sensing probe (2) is connected to the signal processing unit (4) through the optical detector (3); when the temperature around the cone area of ​​the tapered optical fiber temperature sensing probe (2) changes, its cone area fades away The field changes accordingly, thereby changing the optical power output by the tapered optical fiber temperature sensing probe (2); the optical detector (3) converts the optical signal output by the tapered optical fiber temperature sensing probe (2) into The electrical signal is sent to the signal processing unit (4), and the temperature information is obtained by converting the voltage value. The above-mentioned tape...

Embodiment 2

[0027] The manufacturing method of the tapered optical fiber temperature sensing probe is used for the production of the above-mentioned tapered optical fiber temperature sensing head, and its operation method is as follows:

[0028] 1) Take a section of optical fiber, peel off the coating layer to obtain a section of bare fiber, and repeatedly wipe the cladding of the bare fiber with alcohol for use;

[0029] 2) Slowly melt the bare fiber and taper, the taper speed is 0.1mm / sec, the longer the stretch length of the taper area, the smaller the diameter of the taper waist, the higher the sensitivity, and the stretch length is 10-20mm;

[0030] 3) Seal the drawn tapered optical fiber in the quartz U-shaped groove with epoxy glue;

[0031] 4) Coat the temperature-sensitive material (8) on the tapered region of the tapered optical fiber, and cover with a protective sleeve (9).

Abstract

The present invention relates to a tapered optical fiber temperature sensor and a sensing probe production method thereof. The temperature sensor comprises a tapered optical fiber temperature sensing probe. An input terminal of the tapered optical fiber temperature sensing probe is connected with a light source. An output terminal of the tapered optical fiber temperature sensing probe is connected to a signal processing unit through an optical detector. When a cone zone ambient temperature of the tapered optical fiber temperature sensing probe changes, a cone zone evanescent field changes correspondingly, so that an optical power outputted by the tapered optical fiber temperature sensing probe is changed. The optical detector converts an optical signal outputted by the tapered optical fiber temperature sensing probe into an electric signal and sends the electric signal to the signal processing unit, and temperature information is obtained through voltage conversion. The sensor and the method have the advantages of simple structure and high sensitivity, the sensing probe is easy to manufacture and low in cost, and is suitable for diverse industrial, agricultural, scientific research occasions of oil depot tank group temperature monitoring, power system temperature monitoring, mine tunnel fire monitoring, greenhouse granary temperature monitoring, building structure health monitoring and the like.
