Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of gas trace detection, and in particular relates to a hydrogen detection sensor packaging structure based on micro-nano optical fibers. Background Art

[0002] Hydrogen is an important clean energy source with extremely promising applications. Currently, China is vigorously promoting the development of hydrogen energy applications. Hydrogen refueling stations are crucial infrastructure for the industrialization and commercialization of hydrogen fuel cells. However, the most important hydrogen storage devices at hydrogen refueling stations are limited by aging pipelines and gas tanks, which pose a risk of leakage.

[0003] Hydrogen is a flammable and explosive gas. When its concentration in air exceeds 4%, it is highly susceptible to explosion, posing a significant safety hazard. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a hydrogen detection sensor suitable for engineering applications.

[0004] Traditional electrochemical, resistive, and electromagnetic hydrogen sensors have low sensitivity and slow response in hydrogen concentration detection, as well as the risk of electric spark explosion, and have been gradually eliminated. The existing hydrogen detection methods mainly include coating color change detection method and optical fiber coating detection method. Among them, Chinese Patent Authorization Announcement No. CN111174986A discloses a hydrogen detection method based on a hydrogen-discoloring silica gel coating material. The coating material is laid on the outer surface of the pipeline to be detected, and the color of the coating material is compared by regular inspections by inspection personnel to determine whether the hydrogen pipeline is leaking. However, the above method has the problems of wide material laying range, easy loss, and poor repeatability. The hydrogen detection material is exposed to the air environment for a long time and ages, and its performance is easily affected by surrounding environmental factors (such as moisture, dust, microorganisms, etc.). At the same time, the inspection personnel have a large operating range, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. There is a risk of not discovering hydrogen leaks due to negligence of personnel or lighting factors. Chinese Patent Authorization Publication No. CN110967329A discloses a hydrogen detection system and method based on micro-nano optical fibers. This method utilizes stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) mediated by the rotational Raman transitions of hydrogen molecules to alter the ratio of pump light and Stokes light from the incident light source, thereby detecting hydrogen concentration and improving hydrogen detection sensitivity. However, this detection system fails to account for the effects of environmental factors (such as vibration, dust, and water molecules in the air), resulting in poor system robustness and unsuitable for use in engineering environments.

At this time, it is necessary to ensure that the relative position of the micro-nano optical fiber 3 and the probe fixed base 13 does not change, and then the probe fixed top cover 14 is placed above the probe fixed base 13, so that the symmetrical bosses of the probe fixed top cover 14 are embedded in the optical fiber reserved groove of the probe fixed base 13, and then filled with optical fiber adhesive 16; after the optical fiber adhesive 16 is completely solidified, use elastic adhesive 11 to bond a layer of second waterproof and breathable membrane 15 to the outer side of the hydrogen sensor probe frame, that is, the outer surface of the reinforcing rib side frame of the fixed base 13 and the probe fixed top cover 14, to complete the packaging of the hydrogen sensor probe.

[0064] The micro-nano optical fiber 3 is made by an optical fiber taper machine and has a length of 10 to 30 cm. Increasing the length is beneficial to improving the detection sensitivity of the hydrogen sensor.

[0065] The probe fixing base 13 is a symmetrical rectangular hollow structure with a length, width and height ratio of 20:2:1. It is provided with three through hollow grooves in the length direction and two sets of reinforcing ribs at the bottom. The ratio of the reinforcing rib height to the height of the probe fixing base 13 is 2:7; at the same time, the probe fixing base 13 is provided with symmetrical optical fiber reserved grooves on both side frames along its length direction, which are used to fix and bond the micro-nano optical fiber 3 to the probe fixing top cover 14.

[0066] The probe fixing top cover 14 has the same length and width as the probe fixing base 13, and the base height is 2 mm; similarly, the probe fixing top cover 14 is also a symmetrical rectangular hollow structure, with three through hollow grooves in its length direction and two groups of reinforcing ribs at the bottom, and the height of the reinforcing ribs is the same as that of the probe fixing top cover 14; the probe fixing top cover 14 is provided with symmetrical boss structures on both side frames along its length direction for pressing the micro-nano optical fiber 3.

[0067] The probe fixing base 13 and the probe fixing top cover 14 are both made of Invar metal material, which has a thermal expansion coefficient much smaller than other metal materials, only 1.5×10 -6 / ℃, which is close to the thermal expansion coefficient of optical fiber and can effectively reduce the temperature variation coefficient of hydrogen sensor.

[0080] The probe fixing base and the probe fixing top cover of this embodiment are hollow rectangular structures with the same length and width, and are each provided with two sets of reinforcing ribs on the outside. The probe fixing base and the probe fixing top cover are made of the metal material Invar alloy, which has high strength and extremely low thermal expansion coefficient, which is similar to the thermal expansion coefficient of micro-nano optical fiber, effectively reducing the temperature sensitivity of the hydrogen sensor from the physical structure level.

[0081] The top cover of the hydrogen detection chamber in this embodiment is provided with a first waterproof and breathable membrane, and the outer side surfaces of the hydrogen sensor probe fixing base and the probe fixing top cover are provided with a second waterproof and breathable membrane, which effectively isolates the water molecules outside the hydrogen detection chamber and prevents the hydrogen sensor from affecting the detection accuracy of hydrogen concentration when working in a humid environment.
