Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of laser induced breakdown spectroscopy, and in particular to a handheld LIBS analysis device with automatic focusing and micro-area imaging functions and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] LIBS is the abbreviation of Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy. Its working principle is to use pulsed laser to focus on the sample, induce the sample to produce plasma atomic emission spectrum, and extract the atomic emission spectrum through a spectrometer to identify the elemental composition of the sample. It is a technology for identifying, classifying, qualitatively and quantitatively analyzing materials.

[0003] With the continuous development of lasers and high-resolution spectrometers, the size and cost have been continuously reduced and reduced, LIBS technology has been widely studied and applied, and LIBS detection devices have gradually become smaller, from large laboratory devices to handheld instruments that can be used outdoors. With the advantages of LIBS technology, it focuses on in-situ and online analysis, so it is particularly suitable for field environments. At present, the reported application fields include environment (water quality testing and soil pollution, etc.), geology (field rock identification) and cultural heritage (ancient buildings and murals), etc., and commercial applications are mainly metal grade identification and scrap metal recycling.

[0004] In fact, most natural minerals in the wild are not absolutely homogeneous, but are mixed with some impurity particles. Therefore, operators cannot determine whether the laser target falls on the sample or on the impurity particles. If the laser target falls on these impurity particles, the acquired spectral information will not match the sample, thus affecting the analysis results. Summary of the invention

[0041] Through the structure in this embodiment, the pulse laser 120 emits laser light through the through hole 710 and then through the small hole, and finally the laser light falls on the detection sample, thereby obtaining the spectral information of the corresponding detection sample; the setting of the first through hole 720 and the second through hole 730 in this embodiment facilitates the atomic spectrum to enter the optical fiber coupler 160 and the camera 150; wherein, the setting of the lens bracket 310 in this embodiment realizes the installation of the lens.

[0042] In this embodiment, an L-shaped fixing portion 170 is provided on the upper side surface of the pulse laser 120, and the L-shaped fixing portion 170 includes a horizontal plate 510 installed on the upper end surface of the pulse laser 120 and a vertical plate 520 perpendicular to the horizontal plate 510. The input end of the fiber coupler 160 is fixed on the second mounting box 140b and arranged opposite to the first through hole 720.

[0046] In this embodiment, the processing module includes a spectrometer 210 and a microcomputer 130 , and an optical fiber 161 is connected between the optical fiber coupler 160 and the spectrometer 210 .

[0047] Through the setting of the processing module in this embodiment, the optical fiber coupler 160 reflects the atomic spectrum into the optical fiber 161, and then the atomic spectrum enters the spectrometer 210, so that the spectrometer 210 performs spectral analysis on the detection sample, and then obtains the data information of the detection sample and sends it to the microcomputer 130; the setting of the microcomputer 130 in this embodiment is that the microcomputer 130 is provided with a screen display, which can not only display the image information collected by the camera 150, but also display the data information of the detection sample.

[0048] In this embodiment, the autofocus module includes a fixed plate 1210 fixed on the mounting base 110, and a fixed base 180 perpendicular to the fixed plate 1210 is provided on one side of the fixed plate 1210, and a motor mounting plate 1211 is provided on the end of the fixed plate 1210 away from the fixed base 180, and a driving motor 330 is installed on the motor mounting plate 1211, and a screw rod 331 is connected to the motor shaft of the driving motor 330, and a sliding base 1420 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 331, and a focusing base 182 capable of moving toward or away from the fixed base 180 is provided on the sliding base 1420.

[0049] Through the structure of this embodiment, when the pulse laser 120 performs laser targeting on the detection sample, the driving motor 330 can drive the screw 331 to rotate, so that the sliding seat 1420 drives the focusing seat 182 to move toward or away from the fixed seat 180 along the axial direction of the screw 331, thereby realizing the automatic focusing of the laser target on the surface of the detection sample;

[0050] The lower end surface of the fixing seat 180 is provided with a mounting sleeve 181 through which one end of the screw rod 331 passes, so as to achieve a smooth rotation of the screw rod 331 .

[0051] In this embodiment, two parallel sliding rails 190 are provided on the fixed plate 1210 and the length direction is the same as the axial direction of the lead screw 331. Both sliding rails 190 are provided with sliders 191 that can slide along the length direction of the sliding rails 190. The upper end surfaces of the two sliders 191 are provided with long strips 1410 for connecting the two sliders 191. The focusing seat 182 is fixed on the upper end surface of the long strip 1410, and the sliding seat 1420 is fixed on the lower end surface of the long strip 1410 and is arranged between the two sliding rails 190.

[0052] Through the structure in this embodiment, when the lead screw 331 drives the focus seat 182 to move toward or away from the fixed seat 180 along the axial direction of the lead screw 331, the two sliders 191 can keep sliding on the slide rail 190, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the focus seat 182.

[0054] Through the structure in this embodiment, the contact end 184 is in contact with the surface of the test sample, so that the laser emitted by the pulse laser 120 passes through the focusing lens group. Further explanation: the laser beam is completely focused at the focus of the plano-convex mirror 340 under the action of the plano-convex mirror 340, and the focus is made to fall on the test sample by adjusting the position of the focusing seat 182 on the fixed plate 1210, so that the laser target falls on the test sample;

[0057] Through the setting of the aberration-eliminating sleeve 1220 in this embodiment, the protrusion 2020 is always stuck in the slot 1421. Since there is a return error when the focusing seat 182 moves toward or away from the fixed seat 180, the axial compression spring adjustment method is adopted to enable the aberration-eliminating sleeve 1220 to eliminate the return error, thereby improving the reliability of the autofocus module.

[0058] In this embodiment, the device body further comprises a handle 2110 mounted on the lower end surface of the mounting base 110 , and a trigger switch 2111 and a battery box 2120 arranged on the lower end surface of the handle 2110 are provided on the handle 2110 .

[0059] Through the structure in this embodiment, by pressing the trigger switch 2111, the operator can conveniently align the contact end 184 with the test sample, and the pulse laser 120 emits laser under the action of the trigger switch 2111. The setting of the battery box 2120 in this embodiment enables the battery box 2120 to ensure continuous power supply of the device.

[0060] In this embodiment, LED lamp beads 1430 are disposed on the side surface of the focusing seat 182 opposite to the fixing seat 180 along the circumference of the mounting hole 1310 on the focusing seat 182 .

[0061] Through the structure in this embodiment, when the light is poor, the LED lamp beads 1430 provide lighting, which is convenient for the operator to better observe the test samples.

The trigger switch 2111 is turned to enable the pulse laser 120 to emit laser-induced plasma generated on the surface of the test sample. The plasma atomic spectrum of the test sample enters the fiber coupler 160 and the camera 150 along a predetermined optical path. The fiber coupler 160 reflects the received atomic spectrum to the spectrometer 210 through the optical fiber 161, so that the spectrometer 210 detects the spectral information of the test sample; the camera 150 sends the collected image information to the microcomputer 130, so that the image information can be displayed on the screen of the microcomputer 130 for observation by the operator.

[0063] In conclusion, the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and all equivalent changes and modifications made according to the scope of the patent application of the present invention should fall within the scope of the patent of the present invention.
