[0024] In the transmitting end 1, the laser 6 and the photodetector 7 correspond to the mirror positions of the laser reflector 3 and the laser dichroic mirror 4 facing the first optical path transmission channel 2. The first optical path transmission channel 2 of the transmitting end 1 is also provided with a collimating lens 5 for expanding the light of the first optical path transmission channel 2; the laser reflector 3, the laser dichroic mirror 4, and the collimating lens 5 are sequentially arranged in the first optical path transmission channel 2 from the inside to the outside.
[0025] The receiving end 8 comprises a cylindrical receiving end housing, and a mounting ear plate is coaxially arranged on the end surface of the receiving end housing facing the transmitting end 1, and the mounting ear plate is provided with four screw holes evenly distributed around the axis for mounting the receiving end 8;

[0027] The fifth mounting hole and the sixth mounting hole are circular holes, and a laser 6 and a photoelectric detector 7 are respectively mounted in the fifth mounting hole and the sixth mounting hole.
[0028] The seventh mounting hole and the eighth mounting hole are square holes, and the seventh mounting hole and the eighth mounting hole are installed with a laser dichroic mirror 4 and a laser reflector 3. The laser dichroic mirror 4 and the laser reflector 3 are arranged at a 45° angle with the laser optical path to intercept the second optical path transmission channel; wherein the laser dichroic mirror 4 is located between the laser reflector 3 and the mounting ear plate.

The temperature information can be obtained after decoding.
[0035] In this embodiment, since both the transmitting end 1 and the receiving end 8 include a laser 6, a detector and corresponding optical devices, the transmitting end 1 and the receiving end 8 can both receive signals and send signals, thereby realizing duplex communication. When used to measure rotating parts, the transmitting end 1 is installed on the rotor and the receiving end 8 is installed on the stator.
[0036] In this embodiment, the wireless optical communication structure has the advantages of compact structure, stability, and good optical transmission characteristics, and can effectively realize the state monitoring and prediction of rotating parts, thereby improving the safety, reliability, and life of rotating equipment.
