Embodiment Construction
[0014]FIGS. 1 and 2 are plan and isometric views of a preferred embodiment of an athermal FBG strain gage according to the present invention. Other embodiments and variations are within the scope of the invention as claimed.
[0015] An athermal FBG strain gage according to the present invention has a frame 10, a pointer 11, an optical fiber 12, fiber-to-frame engagement means 13, and fiber-to-pointer engagement means 14. The fiber-to-frame engagement means 13 and fiber-to-pointer engagement means 14 are adhesives, such as epoxies; alternatively, other means known in the art for fixing optical fibers to supporting structures may be used. Means for fixing the frame to a structural element to be monitored are also provided. In the preferred embodiment, fixing holes 15 which accommodate fasteners such as rivets, bolts, or screws are the means used to attach the strain gage frame to the structure being monitored. Alternatively, other fastening means such as welding may be employed. The fr...
