Problems solved by technology

[0003] When the Dove prism optical path is coupled, the incident light of the incident fiber collimator passes through the Dove prism and the outgoing light position should correspond to the receiving optical fiber collimator. When the central axis of the Dove prism does not coincide with the mechanical rotation axis, the outgoing light position and The corresponding receiving fiber collimator deviates, resulting in a change in the position of the outgoing light, which in turn affects the coupling loss of the optical path

Abstract

The invention discloses a Dove prism mounting and adjusting method for a fiber optic rotary joint. The method comprises the following steps of 1), determining a reference optical axis; 2), fixing the Dove prism; 3), performing position adjustment on an axial surface in the Dove prism; and 4), performing prism sleeve fixation and performance testing. According to the Dove prism mounting and adjusting method, through continuously adjustment, inclination error and off-axis error of the Dove prism after mounting are reduced, so that the middle axial surface of the Dove prism is superposed with a mechanical rotating shaft of the fiber optic rotary joint, thereby reducing coupling loss between an incident fiber collimator and a receiving fiber collimator.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical fiber rotary connector, in particular to a method for installing and debugging a Dove prism used in the optical fiber rotary connector. Background technique [0002] Multi-channel optical fiber rotary connector is a device for optical fiber signal transmission between rotating and stationary platforms. It is widely used in airborne, ship-borne, and ball-borne systems for large data transmission of optical fiber signals. Dove prisms are used as multi-channel optical fiber rotary connections The key optical prism in the device. The characteristic of the Dove prism is that when the incident light collimator rotates at an angular velocity of 2ω, the Dove prism must be rotated at an angle of ω to ensure that the position of the outgoing light remains unchanged, thereby realizing the coupling between the input channel and the output channel of the multi-channel optical signal . [0003] When the Dove prism optical path i...
