DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0038] The specific embodiments of the application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the application, but are not used to limit the scope of the application.
[0039] An embodiment of the application is a 532nm green laser for a plumb detection system calibration device, which comprises a light source generating device, a first shaping device and a second shaping device; the light source generating device, as shown in Figure 1 includes a pump source 1, a gain working medium 2 and a frequency doubling crystal 3, the first shaping device, as shown in Figure 1 andFigure 2 As shown, it includes a first biconcave lens 41 and a first plano-convex lens 51, and the second shaping device is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, it includes a second biconcave lens 42 and a second plano-convex lens 52;
[0040] Among them, pump source 1 is a semiconductor laser diode LD, gain working medium 2 is neodymium yttrium vanadate Nd:YVO4, frequency doubling crystal 3 is potassium titanate oxyphosphate crystal, i.e. KTP crystal. Red light with a wavelength of 808nm is obtained through LD, red light with a wavelength of 1064nm is obtained through Nd:YVO4, and green light with a wavelength of 532nm is obtained through KTP. The human eye is very sensitive to green light with a wavelength of 532nm. At this time, the initial spot of the initial laser is a circular green spot, but the divergence angle is large.
[0041] The working principle of initial spot processing is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the light spot is initially shaped by the first biconcave lens 41 and the first plano-convex lens 51, i.e., the beam is expanded and the divergence angle is reduced. Then, the light spot is further shaped by the second biconcave lens 42 and the second plano-convex lens 52, expanding the beam by a fixed factor and reducing the divergence angle to approximately zero, so that the second plano-convex lens 52 emits approximately parallel green light. Since the laser emitted by a set of biconcave and plano-convex lenses cannot expand the beam and reduce the divergence angle to meet the standard for lasers used in the calibration device of the plumb line detection system, a second set of biconcave and plano-convex lenses is used to further expand the beam and reduce the divergence angle, and the first biconcave lens 41... A filter 6 is installed between the first biconcave lens 41 and the first plano-convex lens 51 to filter out any possible red light. The curvature of each biconcave lens and plano-convex lens, the distance between the first biconcave lens 41 and the first plano-convex lens 51, and the distance between the second biconcave lens 42 and the second plano-convex lens 52 are all selected or set according to the adjustment magnification of the laser. The beam expansion and divergence angle of the laser emitted by the laser are set according to the requirements of the laser receiver for the beam expansion and divergence angle and the distance of the laser receiver. The adjustment magnification of each biconcave lens and plano-convex lens uses the basic beam expansion formula of thin lenses.
[0042] The beam expansion factor M = focal length of the exit pupil lens f1 / focal length of the entrance pupil lens f2
[0043] Then, in conjunction with the corresponding design wavelength and lens material requirements, simulation results and tolerance analysis results are provided through design software, thereby ensuring the feasibility of the system and the reliability of actual assembly. This 532nm green laser is a semiconductor-pumped solid-state laser, generating laser light in strict TEM00 mode with good spot pattern, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the minimum and maximum positions of the circular light spot both exhibit a Gaussian distribution, with the same divergence angle in both directions, resulting in a circular light spot. Figure 4 As shown, the light spot in the background technology Figure 5 As shown.

[0047] S1, install the calibration device as described above;
[0048] S2, arbitrarily select a position on the motion platform 8 as the initial position, evenly select 5 points in the full range, control the workbench 84 on the motion platform 8 to move linearly in one direction, and give the standard value L i0 , that is, read the reading of the motion platform displacement processing display device 12, and read the indication value L iThe reading corresponding to the receiving screen data processing display device 13 is received, and the whole process is repeated for three times, and the average value of three readings of each measuring point is taken as the detection result L of the point i ;
[0049] S3, the indication error of the point is calculated by the following formula:
[0050] △ i =L i -L i0
[0051] L i - the average value of three readings of the plumb detection system at the point, i = 1, 2,..., 5;
[0052] L i0 - the standard value given by the workbench at the point;
[0053] When the workbench 84 drives the laser to move L0, the position of the laser center point on the laser receiving screen 11 should also be displaced by L0, and at this time the indication value of the plumb detection system will change L, and by calculating the difference between L and L0, the indication error of the plumb detection system can be obtained;
[0054] S4, the horizontal rotating motion platform 8 is arranged at an angle of 60° and 120° with the initial position respectively, and S2 and S3 are repeated;
[0055] Since uniform rotation is required during the plumb detection process, the eccentricity geometric center is taken as the reference point, therefore, the calibration device of the plumb detection system should also be used to obtain the indication error at least at 0°, 60° and 120°. The 532nm green laser of the present application is a semiconductor-pumped solid laser, and the generated laser is a strict TEM00 mode, the spot mode is good, and it is a Gaussian distribution, the divergence angles of two directions are the same, the spot is circular, and the influence of the asymmetry of the spot itself on the calibration result is very small when rotating, which greatly improves the accuracy of the calibration device.
[0056] S5, taking the maximum absolute value of 15 indication error measurement results as the final result.
[0057] As can be seen from the above, the laser and plumb detection system calibration device and the calibration method thereof have the following beneficial effects:
[0058] (1) the light source generating device of the present application generates the initial laser with TEM00 mode and the initial light spot with circular shape, then the initial laser is preliminarily shaped, expanded and the divergence angle is reduced by the first double-concave lens and the first plano-convex lens, and then the laser is expanded and the divergence angle is reduced to approximately zero by the second double-concave lens and the second plano-convex lens, so that the laser with the circular light spot and the same and approximately zero divergence angle in two directions can be generated, and the human eye is more sensitive to the 532nm green laser;
[0059] (2) the laser is used as the standard laser in the plumb detection system calibration device, and the rotation of the standard laser does not affect the calibration result due to the spot symmetry of the standard laser, so that the calibration accuracy of the plumb detection system calibration device is improved;
[0060] (3) the plumb detection system calibration device utilizes the reflection characteristics of the roof prism, moves the standard laser by the workbench, rotates the standard laser horizontally by the motion platform, and is suitable for the working condition of the plumb, so that the plumb detection system can be calibrated, and the standard laser does not affect the calibration result with the horizontal rotation;
[0061] (4) the calibration method takes the moving distance of the standard laser as the standard quantity, measures the error of multiple measuring points by the detection quantity of the laser receiving screen, and measures the error of different rotation angles, so that the working condition of the plumb is met, and the plumb detection system can be effectively calibrated by the calibration device combined with the calibration method.
[0062] Finally, it should be noted that: the above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, and not to limit them; although the embodiments of the present application are described in combination with the drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, and such modifications and variations all fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
