Definitions

  • Another possibility of periodic curvature of the Optical waveguide for example in EP 0 131 474 B1 is to use the optical fiber to wrap around a metallic helix that spirals with a constant pitch around the optical fiber is.
  • the contact mat compressive force lying on the helix on the optical fiber transmitted, which is periodically curved.
  • optical fibers with step profile commercially available fibers known under the name HCS (Hard Cladding Silica) can be used, which in addition to the necessary optical properties also have the necessary mechanical properties for use in the contact mat.
  • HCS Hard Cladding Silica
  • the above-mentioned period length l p of the profiles 3, 4 is still available with commercially available, inexpensive rubber profile mats which can be used without further ado, since there are no high requirements for an exactly adhering to the period length, as would be the case when using fibers with a gradient profile.
  • the training is therefore inexpensive overall.
  • the light source for example a laser diode
  • the optical waveguide namely the optical fiber 1
  • this light pulse travels through the optical fiber 1 to the output of the optical fiber 1, to which, for example, a photodiode is attached as the light detector.

Claims (9)

  1. Capteur optique de force compressive comportant :
    un guide multimodal d'ondes lumineuses (1), qui est agencé dans une couche (2) formant des points de compression périodiques, couche sur laquelle la force compressive s'applique, et qui est courbé ou déformé périodiquement par la force compressive appliquée à cette couche,
    une source de lumière et un détecteur de lumière (5) entre lesquels le guide d'ondes lumineuses (1) est agencé, et
    un dispositif d'exploitation, qui exploite les signaux de sortie du détecteur de lumière (5) variant en fonction de la force compressive, caractérisé en ce que :
    le détecteur de lumière (5) couvre un angle d'ouverture à la sortie du guide d'ondes lumineuses (1), qui n'inclut que la partie du champ de rayonnement des modes de faible ordre, et en ce que le demi-angle d'ouverture (γo) du détecteur de lumière (5) se situe entre environ 0,8 et 1,2 arc sin AN, AN étant l'ouverture numérique du guide d'ondes lumineuses (1).
