Problems solved by technology

The main disadvantages of this device are: it is only sensitive to ultrasonic signals of a specific narrow frequency band, and the sensitivity will become weaker as the volume of the transducer decreases and is greatly affected by capacitance; it is extremely susceptible to interference from environmental electromagnetic fields; The signal will widen as the distance between the transmitting source and the receiver increases (causing signal distortion); the reusability is poor, and the multi-channel real-time monitoring system is complicated; there is no direction recognition, and the ultrasonic direction information cannot be obtained
[0005] The patent number is 201510728121.2, and the name of the invention is "Indirectly Coupled Tapered Fiber Bragg Grating Ultrasonic Sensor". There is a cover on the upper end of the housing, and a center hole is processed in the center of the cover. The lower end of the housing is provided with an acoustic coupling cone. The central position is processed with a central hole, and the optical fiber with gratings is processed from the central position of the acoustic coupling cone to penetrate through the central hole, and passes through the central hole of the cover. This ultrasonic sensor has good response characteristics and stability, etc. Advantages, the main disadvantages are: the sensitivity of the sensor is low, there are many clutter in the detected ultrasonic signal, the detected ultrasonic signal has low energy, and the detection accuracy is low

Abstract

The invention discloses an inclined optical fiber grating ultrasonic sensor. Two optical fiber fixing tubes are radially disposed on a side wall of an optical fiber installation ring, and an included angle between the central lines of the optical fixing tubes is 180degrees. One end of an optical fiber provided with an inclined grating is extended out of the optical fiber installation ring through one optical fiber fixing tube, and the other end of the optical fiber provided with the inclined grating is extended out of the optical fiber installation ring through the other optical fiber fixing tube. The upper end of the optical fiber installation ring is provided with a protection cover, and the lower end of the optical fiber installation ring is provided with an ultrasonic focusing cone, the cone tip of which is connected with the inclined grating in an overlapped manner. The geometric shape of the protection cover is in the shape of a hemispheroid, and the upper end surface and the upper end of the optical installation ring 1 are in the same plane, and the lower end is disposed in the optical fiber installation ring 1. The lower end surface of the ultrasonic focusing cone is a spherical segment recessed surface. The inclined optical fiber grating ultrasonic sensor can be used as a sensor for monitoring earthquakes, and has advantages of high sensitivity, high detection precision, good wide frequency response, wide dynamic range, and ability of preventing electromagnetic interferences.
