Based on the adjusted locator, the position of the second optical component is adjusted until the second optical component is coaxial with the locator, that is, the second optical component simultaneously meets the y-direction reference, the x-direction reference and the y-direction reference.

[0052] Example 1
[0053] See also Figures 1 to 8 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a periscope optical path integration method for assembling and integrating a periscope optical path. The periscope optical path includes a first optical component 10, a second optical component 20, and a periscope lens group 6 located between the first optical component 10 and the second optical component 20 along the propagation direction of the optical path. A non-parallel optical path exists in at least one of the first optical component 10, the periscope lens group 6, and the second optical component 20. Through the periscope optical path integration method, the periscope optical path can be integrated into the final output optical path, that is, the output optical path of the second optical component 20 meets the requirements of the z-axis reference, the y-axis reference, the x-direction reference, and the y-direction reference.
[0054] Optionally, the first optical component 10 includes an object plane 1, a first lens group 2, a reflecting prism 3, a spherical lens group 4 and a plane lens group 5 arranged in sequence along the y direction, wherein the light path formed from the object plane 1 to the first lens group 2 extends along the y direction, is reflected by the reflecting prism 3, is incident along the x direction toward the spherical lens group 4, and finally emits non-parallel light along the x direction from the plane lens group 5 to the periscope group 6.
[0055] The second optical assembly 20 includes a third lens group 7 and a CCD camera 12 . The periscope group 6 emits non-parallel light to the third lens group 7 , which is projected into the CCD camera 12 through the third lens group 7 , so that the object plane 1 is imaged in the CCD camera 12 .
[0056] The periscope optical path integration method provided in the embodiments of the present application includes the following steps:
[0057] Step S100: Install the first optical component 10, install a centering device 8 behind the first optical component 10 along the optical path, and align the centering device 8 with the output optical axis of the first optical component 10 to determine the x-direction reference and the y-direction reference of the first optical component 10;
[0058] Step S200, moving the centering tool 8 so as to align the centering tool 8 with a predetermined installation position of the periscope assembly 6, the predetermined installation position being located between the first optical component 10 and the centering tool 8;
[0059] Step S300, installing the periscope assembly 6 at a predetermined installation position;
[0060] Step S400, adjusting the lens angle of the periscope assembly 6 until the centering device 8 is aligned with the output optical axis of the first optical component 10 around the x-direction reference and the y-direction reference again;
[0061] Step S500, moving the centering tool 8 along the y-direction until the centering tool 8 completes alignment with the output optical axis of the first optical component 10 along the y-direction reference;
[0062] Step S600: Install the second optical assembly 20 behind the periscope assembly 6 along the optical path, and adjust the second optical assembly 20 until the output optical axis of the second optical assembly 20 is coaxial with the centering device 8 along the y-direction reference.
[0063] Step S700: Replace the centering device 8 with the mirror locator 11, and fix the second optical component 20 to the mirror locator 11;
[0064] Step S800 , the first optical component 10 is translated along the z direction until the first optical component 10 and the second optical component 20 are aligned along the z direction reference, and the first optical component 10 is fixed.
[0065] The centering device 8 is a high-precision, non-contact lens center deviation measuring instrument capable of detecting the mechanical coaxiality of the lens assembly. Based on this function, the centering device 8 is used during the integrated alignment process between the first optical assembly 10, the periscope assembly 6, and the second optical assembly 20 of the periscope optical path. Specifically, the centering device 8 can be an internal focusing centering device with a self-collimation function.
[0066] In step S100, Figure 1 As shown, the position of the centering device 8 can be adjusted for the first time so that the centering device 8 can receive the outgoing light path of the first optical component 10 and temporarily fix the first optical component 10 to determine the x-direction reference and the y-direction reference of the first optical component 10 through the centering device 8.
[0067] In step S200, by adjusting the position of the centering instrument 8 for the second time, it is ensured that the centering instrument 8 can receive the outgoing light path of the periscope assembly 6, so as to facilitate the installation and adjustment of the periscope assembly 6 in steps S300 and S400.
[0068] In step S400, Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, since the addition of the periscope group 6 in step S300 will cause optical axis deviation, adjusting the lens angle of the periscope group 6 can eliminate the optical axis deviation caused by the heating of the periscope group 6, and ensure that after the periscope group 6 is installed, the centering device 8 can still maintain a self-aligned state around the x-direction reference and the y-direction reference with the output optical axis of the first optical component 10.
[0069] This ensures that before assembling the second optical component 20, the outgoing light path of the periscope group 6 meets the self-alignment requirements around the x-direction reference and the y-direction reference. By first self-aligning the first optical component 10 and then self-aligning the entirety of the first optical component 10 and the periscope group 6, the degrees of freedom of the first optical component 10 and the periscope group 6 are decoupled.
[0070] In step S500, Figure 5 As shown, by performing a third position adjustment on the centering device 8 , the adjusted centering device 8 is self-aligned with the output optical axis of the first optical component 10 along the y direction.
[0071] In step S600, Figure 6 As shown, the periscope group 6 and the first optical component 10 that have been fixed and debugged are directly debugged with the output optical axis of the periscope group 6 (that is, the optical axis of the locator) as the reference to only debug the second optical component 20 to ensure that the second optical component 20 can still meet the requirements of the y-direction reference, the x-direction reference and the y-direction reference after assembly.
[0072] In step S700, Figure 7 As shown, the centering device 8 is directly replaced with the mirror aligner 11, ensuring that all components of the periscope optical path are in place. The second optical assembly 20 and the mirror aligner 11 are connected as a whole. The mirror aligner 11 uses laser interferometry to measure the spacing between lenses. It is used in step S800 to ensure that the measured spacing between lenses is the same along the z-direction reference. The z-direction reference is perpendicular to the x-direction reference, and the z-direction reference is perpendicular to the y-direction reference.
[0073] In step S800, Figure 8 As shown, since the current periscope optical path does not meet the requirement of the z-direction reference, the first optical component 10 is translated along the z-direction until the optical axis distance between the plane mirror group 5 and the second optical component 20 along the z-direction reaches a set value. Only then is it considered that the first optical component 10 and the second optical component 20 have completed self-alignment along the z-direction reference. Therefore, by moving the first optical component 10, the periscope optical path simultaneously meets the requirements of the z-direction reference, the y-direction reference, the reference around the x-direction reference, and the reference around the y-direction reference.
[0074] The reason for adjusting only the first optical assembly 10 is that the z-axis distance can be adjusted while maintaining the periscope optical path, the second optical assembly 20, and the mirror aligner fixed. This ensures that z-axis adjustment does not affect the autocollimation state established in the previous step. Furthermore, the mirror aligner serves as a fixed measuring device in this step, which helps improve measurement accuracy.
[0075] It can be understood that during the integrated installation of the periscope optical path, the periscope optical path integration method mainly needs to control the z-direction reference, the y-direction reference, the alignment accuracy around the x-direction reference and around the y-direction reference, without the need to control the x-direction reference and the alignment accuracy around the z-direction reference.
[0076] In this embodiment, in step S100, it is determined that the alignment accuracy of the first optical component 10 and the centering device 8 around the x-direction reference and the alignment accuracy around the y-direction reference are both no more than 5", for example, 2", 3", 4" or 5", etc., to provide a more accurate reference reference for the adjustment of the centering device 8 and the periscope group 6 after step S100, thereby improving the adjustment accuracy of the centering device 8 and the periscope group 6, and further ensuring that the periscope integrated optical path integration method can achieve high-precision assembly and adjustment.
[0077] In this embodiment, the alignment accuracy of the first optical component 10 and the centering device 8 around the x-direction reference and the alignment accuracy around the y-direction reference determined in step S400 are both no more than 2", for example, 1" or 2", etc., which provides a more accurate reference reference for the installation of the second optical component 20 and the mirror locator 11 after step S400, thereby improving the assembly accuracy between the first optical component 10, the second optical component 20 and the mirror locator 11, and further ensuring that the periscope integrated optical path integration method can achieve high-precision assembly and adjustment.
[0078] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the first optical assembly 10 includes a spherical lens group 4 and a plane lens group 5. The spherical lens group 4 and the plane lens group 5 are located at the rear of the first optical assembly 10 along the optical path. Specifically, the principal axes of the spherical lens group 4 and the plane lens group 5 are both coaxially arranged with the output optical axis of the first optical assembly 10.
[0079] On this basis, the x-reference and y-reference determined in step S100 are: the axis passing through the center of the spherical mirror group 4 and extending along the output optical axis direction of the first optical component 10 is used as the x-reference, the axis passing through the center of the spherical mirror group 4 and perpendicular to the x-reference is used as the y-reference, the plane where the plane mirror group 5 is located is used as the y-reference, and the plane passing through the center of the spherical mirror group 4 and perpendicular to the plane where the plane mirror group 5 is located is used as the x-reference.
[0080] This makes it easy for the locator to determine the x-axis reference, the y-axis reference, the reference around the x-axis and the reference around the y-axis, reducing the difficulty of debugging.
[0081] In view of this, in this embodiment, while the centering device 8 maintains alignment around the x-direction reference and the y-direction reference, the centering device 8 is moved along the y-direction until the center image of the centering device 8 and the spherical mirror group 4 cross coincide with each other, thereby achieving the purpose of completing the alignment of the centering device 8 with the output optical axis of the first optical component 10 along the y-direction reference in step S500.
[0082] In an optional solution of this embodiment, step S200 specifically includes the following steps:
[0083] Step S210, installing a plane reflector 9 at a predetermined installation position of the periscope assembly 6, wherein the plane reflector 9 can cover the periscope assembly 6 along the y direction;
[0084] Step S211 : Move the centering device 8 along the x-direction and the y-direction until the centering device 8 moves to within the exit height range of the periscope assembly 6 .
[0085] Specifically, in step S210, if Figure 2 As shown, the plane reflector 9 needs to be installed at a predetermined installation position with its optical axis parallel to the light output axis of the first optical writing assembly and the optical axis of the centering device 8 .
[0086] In step S211 , it is necessary to first estimate the exit height range of the periscope assembly 6 , then keep the plane reflector 9 stationary, and then move and adjust the centering device 8 .
[0087] Therefore, by setting the plane reflector 9 and moving and adjusting the position of the centering instrument 8, not only can the positioning instrument be adjusted to a suitable y-direction height, but also the distance between the internal focusing centering instrument 8 and the first optical component 10 along the x-direction can be shortened.
[0088] In an optional solution of this embodiment, step S300 specifically includes the following steps:
[0089] Step S310: remove the plane reflector 9 and find the predetermined installation position of the periscope assembly 6 at the interval between the first optical component 10 and the centering device 8 along the optical path direction;
[0090] Step S311: Install the periscope assembly 6 at a predetermined installation position of the periscope assembly 6.
[0091] Removing the plane reflector 9 before assembling the periscope group 6 can prevent the plane reflector 9 from continuing to cut off the periscope group 6 from the first optical component 10, making it easier for the locator to detect the output light path after the first optical component 10 and the periscope group 6 are coupled.
[0092] In an optional solution of this embodiment, step S400 specifically includes the following steps: adjusting the upper lens of the periscope group 6 until the centering device 8 is re-aligned with the output optical axis of the first optical component 10 around the x-direction reference and the y-direction reference.
[0093] Specifically, the periscope group 6 includes an upper reflector and a lower reflector arranged side by side and spaced apart along the y-direction. Since there is an angular deviation between the verticality of the mechanical processing of the periscope group 6 and the mounting surface of the lower reflector and the mounting surface of the upper reflector, and there will be a large y-direction deviation, adjusting only one of the upper reflector and the lower reflector can reduce the influence of the above-mentioned deviation on the adjustment result, and the lower reflector is not conducive to debugging, so the lower reflector is fixed and only the upper reflector is adjusted to facilitate the adjustment operation of the lens of the periscope group 6.
[0094] In the optional scheme of this embodiment, step S600 is specifically to rotate and translate the second optical component 20. Specifically, the second optical component 20 is rotated at least around the x-axis reference and around the y-axis reference, and the second optical component 20 is moved along the y-axis until the output optical axis of the second optical component 20 is coaxial with the centering device 8.
[0095] In an optional solution of this embodiment, the following steps are further included after step S800:
[0096] Step S910, remove the mirror locator 11;
[0097] Step S911 , installing a CCD camera 12 at the position of the mirror locator 11 .
[0098] like Figure 8 As shown, the mirror locator 11 that plays the function of measuring the optical axis distance is disassembled, and a periscope optical path that also includes a CCD camera 12 is obtained through the periscope optical path integration method.
