Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention discloses a variable cold stop infrared detector test dewar structure, which specifically relates to the fields of refrigerated infrared detectors and variable cold stops. Background Art
[0002] The cold stop size is a key parameter of the detector dewar assembly. The cold stop size of traditional detectors cannot be dynamically changed, which causes problems such as low aperture utilization rate and poor stray radiation suppression effect for the zoom optical system. The variable F-number optical system with a variable cold stop can effectively solve the above problems. For refrigerated variable cold stop infrared detectors, a variable cold stop structure that can operate smoothly in a low-temperature environment needs to be built, and at the same time, precise control of the cold stop aperture can be achieved. The lead screw and the stepper motor adopt an integrated structure, effectively reducing the size of the entire electro-controlled cold stop device, and its structure is compact.
[0003] CN202886705U discloses a variable cold stop dewar. This structure drives the transmission gear through a stepper motor, adjusts the cold stop aperture through gear meshing, and uses an adiabatic plate to isolate the motor from the low-temperature environment; CN203455532U discloses a device for adjusting the variable cold stop aperture. This structure uses a ring-shaped rheostat to feedback the cold stop aperture in real time, and drives the cold stop aperture adjustment through an ultrasonic motor, ensuring the linear motion, positioning accuracy, and stability of the arc-shaped cold stop.
[0004] However, the above stepper motor and ring-shaped rheostat have insufficient reliability in a low-temperature environment, and there are problems such as low temperature may cause the performance of the device to decline or fail. At the same time, the structures adopted are relatively complex and large in size, making it difficult to meet the requirements of dewar miniaturization and having a high maintenance cost; in addition, the influence of factors such as the deformation of the assembly structure caused by the difference in thermal expansion coefficient and the thermal load and heat leakage of the entire dewar is not considered. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To meet the requirements of variable cold stop aperture size of infrared detectors, continuous operation in a low-temperature vacuum environment, and dewar miniaturization, aiming at the deficiencies in the background art, the technical problems to be solved by the present invention are as follows:
[0006] (1) Provide a small cold stop drive device that can continuously operate in a low-temperature vacuum environment;
[0007] (2) Provide a cold stop drive device with a small thermal load and adiabatic function.
[0008] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

The inner ring 33 is located inside the outer ring 32. The truss 34 is adhesively installed above the inner ring 33. All three are part of the transmission structure. The rotating device 3 contains a total of 10 diaphragms 35 located above the cold shield. The pins on both sides of each diaphragm 35 are respectively connected to the upper end of the cold shield housing 21 and the lower end of the backing plate 36. The rotating device 3 changes the cold aperture size by the movement of the diaphragm 35.
[0015] The ultrasonic motor 31 is located above the motor support 15 outside the rotating device 3, and the two are connected by bolts. The ultrasonic motor 31 is composed of a piezoelectric ceramic sheet 311, a stator base 312, an adjusting screw 313, an ultrasonic motor driving foot 314, and a base 315.

There are 10 pin guide grooves evenly distributed at its inner circle, which can cooperate with the movable pins 352 of the diaphragm plate 35 to guide the movable pins 32 of the diaphragm plate to move in and out along the pin guide grooves, so as to realize the change of the diaphragm aperture; on its upper surface, 10 circular grooves are evenly distributed at both sides of the pin holes according to the circumferential angle, which are used for bonding the lower ends of the springs connected to the truss. The springs apply a certain pressure to the backing plate 36 and the diaphragm plate 35, which can improve the assembly reliability and reduce the contact thermal resistance; the material used for the backing plate 36 is similar to the material property of the diaphragm plate 35, which can effectively reduce the problem of assembly structure deformation caused by temperature change.
[0020] The truss 34 is composed of an upper ring 341, a lower ring 342 and 6 connecting ribs 343. The upper ring 341 and the lower ring 342 are coaxial. The whole part is integrally formed and hollowed out around, which plays the role of reducing the cold loss, transmitting torque and providing a pre-pressure for the backing plate. There are 10 circular grooves on the lower surface of the upper ring 341 that correspond one by one to the circular grooves of the backing plate 36, which are used for bonding the upper ends of the springs connected to the backing plate. The upper ring 341 compresses and drives the springs to provide a certain pre-pressure and torque for the backing plate 36; the connecting ribs 343 are used to connect the upper ring 341 and the lower ring 342 of the truss, and are spiral, which can increase the heat transfer path, thereby improving the adiabatic ability of the truss 34; the lower ring 342 is connected to the inner ring 33 through an inverted L-shaped step and is connected with glue. The coaxiality of the two needs to be ensured during the assembly process.

The connecting ribs (343) are used to connect the upper ring (341) and the lower ring (342) of the truss, and are spiral, which can increase the heat transfer path, thereby improving the adiabatic ability of the truss (34). The lower ring (342) is matched with the inner ring (33) through an inverted L-shaped step, and is connected with glue. The coaxiality of the two must be ensured during the assembly process.
