Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of fiber optic sensors, and particularly relates to a split type diffuse reflection fiber optic coaxial laser sensor which is easy to assemble. Background Art
[0002] Diffuse reflection fiber optic coaxial laser sensors are mainly used for measuring parameters such as distance measurement and in-place detection. Its working principle is that the light emitted by the light source is sent into the modulator through the optical fiber, and interacts with the external measured parameter in the modulator, so that the characteristics of the light (such as intensity, wavelength, frequency, phase, etc.) change, forming a demodulated optical signal. These optical signals are then sent into the photodetector through the optical fiber, and the measured parameter is obtained after demodulation. In a fiber optic coaxial laser sensor, the deviation degree between the emission optical path and the detection optical path is called the "coaxiality" of the fiber optic coaxial laser sensor, which is related to the stability of the sensor performance and the accuracy of the measurement. The measures to improve the "coaxiality" of the diffuse reflection fiber optic coaxial laser sensor mainly include optimizing the design and production process, selecting high-precision accessories, and strengthening the installation and debugging. Although selecting high-precision accessories and strengthening the installation and debugging are the simplest and most intuitive measures, optimizing the design and production process is the fundamental method to improve the performance of the fiber optic coaxial laser sensor.
[0003] At present, the working ends of fiber optic coaxial laser sensors almost all adopt an integrated design, and each component is assembled in sequence. For example: first, the lens and the laser diode module are fixed by using the laser diode module housing, then the laser diode module housing is sleeved with a plastic round tube, then the fiber optic component is added, and finally a stainless steel threaded tube is sleeved. This integrated method cannot guarantee the "coaxiality" of the sensor during production and assembly because the plastic round tube is soft. And during production and assembly, workers do not perform "coaxiality" testing. Instead, "coaxiality" testing is only carried out during the installation and application stage of the sensor. However, if the "coaxiality" of the sensor does not meet the requirements at this time, the encapsulated sensor needs to be disassembled to perform "coaxiality" debugging. Due to the inherent defects of its production and assembly process, "coaxiality" debugging is also a "blind adjustment". After debugging, it needs to be re-encapsulated and re-tested, which seriously restricts the production efficiency of fiber optic coaxial laser sensors.
[0004] At the same time, the control end of the fiber optic coaxial laser sensor mainly consists of a PCB control board and a PCB control board packaging box. The existing PCB control board packaging box encapsulates the PCB control board in a "pouring" manner, with high production costs. And once the PCB control board is damaged, the PCB control board packaging box needs to be completely destroyed, and even if a new PCB control board is replaced, it cannot be used. These are not conducive to improving the production efficiency of fiber optic coaxial laser sensors. Summary of the Utility Model
[0005] The purpose of the present utility model is to provide a split-type diffuse reflection fiber optic coaxial laser sensor that is easy to assemble, aiming to solve the problems in the prior art that the "coaxiality" of the working end of the fiber optic coaxial laser sensor cannot be guaranteed and the PCB control board of the control end is locked in the packaging box, resulting in low production efficiency of the fiber optic coaxial laser sensor.
