Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of optical fiber drawing systems, and more specifically, to a drawing system for adjusting the core-to-package ratio structure of a preform rod in real time. Background Art

[0002] Optical fiber drawing is done by heating the preform in a drawing furnace. The preform is heated to an extremely high temperature and gradually softens. Tension is applied to the softened part of the preform to reduce diameter dripping. The dripping and cooled optical fiber is collected onto the take-up drum through the main traction wheel on the main traction device and the optical fiber take-up machine at the end.

[0003] Schott AG introduces the preform into the heating sleeve of the fiber furnace through a follower device. By designing the structure or layout of the heating sleeve, it ensures that the glass fibers are pulled out without touching or crossing each other, so that the glass fibers have a predetermined constant diameter.

[0004] Fujikura Ltd. temporarily heats silica glass containing rare earth element compounds to a temperature above the glass transition point and in a single phase, then accelerates the cooling rate and cools it to a specified temperature, thereby suppressing the crystallization and phase separation of the rare earth element compounds and thus suppressing the loss of light during propagation.

[0005] Corning Inc. has reduced the open annular volume in the drawing furnace and the size of the internal open cavity to enable the drawing system to have a more stable and uniform gas flow, thereby reducing the temperature fluctuations caused by the gas flow and controlling the uniformity of the optical fiber diameter.

[0006] Corning INC also achieves slow annealing of optical fiber by setting the opening size of the air inlet and outlet and controlling the cooling rate, which slows down the cooling speed of the optical fiber and improves the density uniformity in the optical fiber, thereby reducing the attenuation during use.

[0007] In addition, Corning INC has also achieved multi-stage flame heating of optical fibers by setting multiple burners and corresponding heating temperatures, thereby increasing the rate of the optical fiber drawing process while ensuring the quality of the optical fiber.

[0008] The above traditional optical fiber drawing process is to place the fixed size of the preform on the rod feeding mechanism on the top of the drawing furnace for heating and drawing. The preform passes through the main traction device in turn through the drawing furnace, annealing device, cooling device, and finally forms optical fiber. This results in the core-to-clad ratio of the optical fiber being a fixed value and depending on the size of the preform. If you want to obtain optical fibers with different core-to-clad ratios, you need to modify the cladding sleeve of the preform, which is a cumbersome operation. Summary of the invention

By changing the speeds of the two so that there is a speed difference between them, the ratio of the cladding and the core rod can be changed. In this way, through real-time speed regulation, the core-to-cladding ratio of the optical fiber can be adjusted in real time, which greatly reduces the difficulty of shaping the core rod and the cladding sleeve.

[0054] Furthermore, the heating element is composed of a resistance heating element based on resistance heating when current flows, and is arranged in a ring-shaped manner in the heating furnace 5 so that the heating space is heated evenly, and the heating temperature can reach 1000°C~1500°C.

[0055] Furthermore, the height of the heating element is preferably 30-40 mm.

[0056] Furthermore, in order to effectively utilize the heat generated by the heating element, a heat insulating member is provided around the heating element and the furnace core tube.

[0057] Furthermore, a heat sink is provided at the lower side of the heating element that heats the heating furnace, and transfers the heat from the inner side of the heating furnace to the outer side of the heating furnace. The heat conductivity of the heat sink is higher than that of the heat insulating member. By providing such a heat sink, it is easier to discharge heat to the outside of the heating furnace from the lower side than from the upper side.

[0058] Furthermore, with regard to the temperature distribution in the heating furnace, the temperature is raised from the upstream side to the downstream side to the maximum temperature and then lowered, and there is a change point where the temperature drops sharply on the downstream side more than the portion where the maximum temperature is reached.

After collection is completed, the turntable 86 can be rotated to drive the second screw 85 to rotate, which will drive the side frame 81 on the other side to slide along the second slide groove, so that the side frame 81 on the other side is detached from one end of the take-up shaft 82. After pulling a suitable distance, it is convenient to remove the wound optical fiber.

[0062] The specific implementation method is as follows: when in use, the core rod 91 and the cladding tube 9 are fixed by the first clamp 3 and the second clamp 4 respectively. During the fixing process, the electromagnet 45 needs to be started. The stopper 43 at one end of the push rod 41 is attracted by the magnetic force of the electromagnet 45, pushing the push rod 41 inward, and fixing the core rod 91 and the top of the cladding tube 9 through the clamping plate 42 at one end.

During the rotation process, the slides 21 on both sides will slide downward along the first slide groove 11, respectively driving the core rod 91 and the cladding tube 9 to move downward and enter the heating furnace 5 for heating treatment. During the transportation process, The power of the first motors 23 on both sides is adjusted to control the downward conveying rate of the cladding tube 9 and the core rod 91, so as to adjust the ratio of the core rod 91 to the cladding. The core rod 91 and the cladding tube 9 will enter the heating furnace 5 for heating. After being heated to a certain temperature, the wire drawing process will be carried out. The drawn optical fiber will first pass through the diameter gauge 6 for diameter measurement, and then be guided by the guide frame 7, and finally be wound up by the take-up frame 8. During the winding process, the second motor 83 on one side of the side frame 81 will be started to drive the take-up shaft 82 to rotate, and the optical fiber will be wound onto the surface of the take-up shaft 82. After the collection is completed, the turntable 86 can be rotated to drive the second screw 85 to rotate. The slider 84 is threadedly connected to the second screw 85, which will drive the side frame 81 on the other side to slide along the second slide groove, so that the side frame 81 on the other side is detached from one end of the take-up shaft 82. After pulling away from a suitable distance, it is convenient to remove the wound optical fiber. After removal, the side frame 81 on the other side is reset through the turntable 86.

[0063] Working principle of the present invention: Refer to the instruction manual Figure 1-10 When in use, the core rod 91 and the cladding tube 9 are fixed by the first clamp 3 and the second clamp 4 respectively, and then the first motor 23 on both sides of the frame 1 is started, and the first screw 22 is driven to rotate by the first motor 23. During the rotation, the slides 21 on both sides will slide downward along the first slide groove 11, respectively driving the core rod 91 and the cladding tube 9 to move downward and enter the heating furnace 5 for heating treatment. During the transportation process, the power of the first motors 23 on both sides can be adjusted to control the downward transportation rate of the cladding tube 9 and the core rod 91, thereby adjusting the ratio of the core rod 91 to the cladding. The core rod 91 and the cladding tube 9 will enter the heating furnace 5 for heating, and after being heated to a certain temperature, the wire drawing process is performed. When the transportation speed of the cladding tube 9 is less than the transportation speed of the core rod 91, the effect of the drawn optical fiber is as follows. Figure 8The outer diameter of the cladding is smaller than the inner core. When the conveying speed of the cladding tube 9 is equal to the conveying speed of the core rod 91, the effect of the pulled optical fiber is as follows: Fig. 9 , the outer diameter of the cladding is equal to the inner core. When the conveying speed of the cladding tube 9 is greater than the conveying speed of the core rod 91, the effect of the pulled optical fiber is as follows: Fig.10 The outer diameter of the cladding is larger than the inner core. The pulled-out optical fiber will first pass through a diameter gauge 6 to measure the diameter, then be guided by a guide frame 7, and finally be reeled in by a take-up frame 8.

[0064] Hereinafter, the first embodiment and the second embodiment of the optical fiber manufacturing method of the present invention will be described together.

[0065] Embodiment 1: Embodiment 1 is Figure 1 , Figure 2 The construction shown applies to Figure 8 The optical fiber manufacturing apparatus shown is used to actually manufacture an embodiment of an optical fiber line.

[0066] The core rod 91 and the cladding tube 9 are fixed by the first clamp 3 and the second clamp 4 respectively. During the fixing process, the electromagnet 45 needs to be started. The stopper 43 at one end of the push rod 41 is attracted by the magnetic force of the electromagnet 45, pushing the push rod 41 inward, and fixing the core rod 91 and the top of the cladding tube 9 through the clamping plate 42 at one end. During the inward pushing process of the push rod 41, the reset spring 44 is squeezed. After the feeding is completed, the electromagnet 45 is turned off, the reset spring 44 pushes the stopper 43 outward, and pulls the push rod 41 to reset. Then the first motor 23 on both sides of the frame 1 is started, and the first screw 22 is driven to rotate by the first motor 23. The first screw 22 is threadedly connected to the slide 21. During the rotation, the slides 21 on both sides will slide downward along the first slide groove 11, respectively driving the core rod 91 and the cladding tube 9 to move downward. The setting of the first motors 23 on both sides makes the core rod 91 feeding mechanism The descending speed V1=500m / min is greater than the descending speed V2=300m / min of the feeding mechanism of the cladding tube 9, and enters the heating furnace 5 for heating treatment. After being heated to a certain temperature, it is subjected to wire drawing treatment. The drawn optical fiber will first pass through the diameter gauge 6 for diameter measurement, and then be guided by the guide frame 7, and finally be wound up by the take-up frame 8. During the winding process, the second motor 83 on one side of the side frame 81 will be started, driving the take-up shaft 82 to rotate, and the optical fiber line will be wound onto the surface of the take-up shaft 82. After collection is completed, the turntable 86 can be rotated to drive the second screw 85 to rotate. The slider 84 is threadedly connected to the second screw 85, which will drive the side frame 81 on the other side to slide along the second slide groove, so that the side frame 81 on the other side is detached from one end of the take-up shaft 82. After pulling away from a suitable distance, it is convenient to remove the wound optical fiber. After removal, the side frame 81 on the other side is reset through the turntable 86. Thus, an optical fiber with a core diameter of 70 μm was drawn, and the optical fiber was used for transmission modeling. Fig.11 The optical waveguide is shown in Figure 8 Transmission modeling results of the optical fiber filament shown, where X and Y represent the optical fiber diameters and E represents the electromagnetic field intensity.

[0067] Embodiment 2: Example 2 is to use Figure 1 , Figure 2 The structure shown controls the cladding drop speed V2 to be greater than the core drop speed V1, thereby making the cladding diameter larger, such as Fig.10 as shown in .

[0068] That is, in Example 1, the core mother material descent speed and the cladding mother material descent speed are adjusted as follows: first, the feeding speed of the left feeding mechanism is adjusted to V1=500m / min, and then the feeding speed of the right feeding mechanism is adjusted to V2=660m / min. Other conditions are the same as in Example 1. contrast Figure 8 and Fig.10It can be found that when v1 < v2, the diameter of the cladding wall is thicker than that of the core diameter, and when v1 > v2, the diameter of the cladding is thinner than that of the core diameter.

[0069] Comparison Fig.11 and Fig.12 From the modeling result diagrams of and, it can be found that when v1 < v2, the cladding wall thickens, which can effectively suppress the transmission of short-wavelength optical waveguides (taking 400 nm as an example). When v1 > v2, the cladding wall thins, and the transmission efficiency of short-wavelength optical waveguides increases. Therefore, adjusting the core-cladding ratio in real time can control the transmission efficiency of optical waveguides with different wavelengths during the fiber drawing process.

[0070] The preferred embodiments and examples of the present invention have been described above. However, the present invention is of course not limited to the above embodiments and examples. Additions, omissions, substitutions, and other changes can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.
