TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of lens detection, and particularly to a lens optical effective diameter inner stress analysis method. BACKGROUND
[0002] Optical lenses are one of the key components of precision optical instruments. During installation, optical lenses are often installed and fixed using glue or screws in the radial direction of the lens. Assembly forces such as glue joint force and screw pre-tightening force will form radial loads on the lens and cause unevenly distributed stresses in the lens, thereby affecting the imaging accuracy of the optical system.
[0003] For example, the application No. CN202110016131.9 provides a radial loading device for optical lens stress testing, which can perform radial quantitative loading test on optical lenses with different load sizes and quantities. The device includes a base plate, a lens support platform, a force application system, and a force measurement system. The lens support platform and the force application system are fixed on the base plate through a connecting piece, and the force measurement system is connected to the base plate through a movable connecting piece. The movable connecting piece can move along the radial direction of the lens. The force application system generates force by compressing the spring with a screw, and the sensor of the measurement system measures the force size, thereby achieving accurate control of the radial load size and direction. The present application realizes the radial quantitative loading of optical lenses, has high loading direction accuracy, and has a large adjustment range of load quantity and size, which can be applied to the radial loading of optical lenses of various sizes. The present application can be widely applied to the study of stress distribution state of high-precision optical elements and quantitative mapping relationship between assembly force and internal stress state of optical elements.
[0004] The above-mentioned patent can detect the stress distribution state of the lens. However, the current stress meter can detect the internal stress size of the lens and output the maximum value, average value, and minimum value of the internal stress in a specific range. However, the limitation is that the specific range selected is subjective and cannot accurately output the maximum value, average value, and minimum value of the internal stress in the optical effective diameter of the lens when analyzing the stress size and distribution in the optical effective diameter of the lens.
