Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the fields of debugging and coupling, and more specifically, to a system for the joint assembly, debugging, coupling and curing of multiple optical devices. Background Technology

[0002] In some optical systems, such as within the resonant cavity of a solid-state laser, it is necessary to simultaneously tune and solidify multiple coupled devices within a limited space. Each coupled device requires at least three and at most six degrees of freedom. Each coupled device is small in size and requires high adjustment precision. Therefore, the smooth adjustment, coupling efficiency, and manufacturability of the optical system need to be improved. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a system for the joint assembly, debugging, coupling and solidification of multiple optical devices. It can provide multiple degrees of freedom adjustment for multiple optical devices that need to be coupled in a confined space, and has the characteristics of stability and reliability, simple operation, high assembly and adjustment efficiency and high adjustment accuracy.

[0004] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following approach:

[0005] A system for the joint assembly, debugging, coupling, and curing of multiple optical devices includes a mounting base, a first coupling device clamping and debugging device, a second coupling device clamping and debugging device, a third coupling device clamping and debugging device, a fourth coupling device clamping and debugging device, a coupling device base mounting base, a dispensing assembly, and an external inspection parallel beam. The coupling device base mounting base is mounted on the mounting base to fix the coupling device base. The first, second, third, and fourth coupling device clamping and debugging devices are used to clamp or mount the first, second, third, and fourth coupling devices, respectively. The spatial position of the optical devices to be coupled is inspected by the external inspection parallel beam. After confirming that the position is correct, the optical devices are cured by the dispensing assembly.

[0006] Furthermore, the fixing base includes a base plate, corner brackets, a rigidity reinforcing plate, a profile, a guide rail mounting adapter plate, a slider, a mechanical limiting block, and a guide rail. The base plate is connected to the corner brackets, the corner brackets are connected to the rigidity reinforcing plate, and the rigidity reinforcing plate is connected to the profile, forming a system mounting carrier. The guide rail mounting adapter plate transfers the profile holes, facilitating the fixing of the guide rail. The slider serves as the mounting carrier for the first, second, and third coupling device clamping and adjusting devices. The mechanical limiting block mechanically limits the movement stroke of the first, second, and third coupling device clamping and adjusting devices to prevent their lower ends from colliding. The guide rail guides the movement trajectory of the first, second, and third coupling device clamping and adjusting devices. The slider and guide rail enable position adjustment of the first, second, and third coupling device clamping and adjusting devices.

[0007] Furthermore, the first coupling device clamping and adjusting device includes a mounting base, an XYZ three-axis translation stage, a position adjustment plate, a rotary stage around the X-axis, a rotary stage around the YZ-axis, and a coupling device clamp. The mounting base is used to mount the first coupling device clamping and adjusting device on the slider, accept the limit of the mechanical limit block, constrain the stroke of the first coupling device clamping and adjusting device, and prevent collision. The XYZ three-axis translation stage enables the first coupling device to be precisely adjusted and locked along the X, Y, and Z axes. The position adjustment plate is used to adjust the spatial position of the coupling device clamp and reserve operating space for the adjustment of the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device. The rotary stage around the X-axis provides the first coupling device with the degree of freedom of rotation adjustment around the X-axis. The rotary stage around the YZ-axis provides the first coupling device with the two degrees of freedom of rotation adjustment around the Y and Z axes. The coupling device clamp clamps the first coupling device by threading.

[0008] Furthermore, the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device includes a mounting base, an XYZ three-axis translation stage, a Z-axis rotary stage, an eccentric adapter plate, and a connecting rod. The mounting base is used to mount the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device on the slider, accepting the limit of the mechanical limit block to constrain the stroke of the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device. The XYZ three-axis translation stage enables the second coupling device to be precisely adjusted and locked along the X, Y, and Z axes. The Z-axis rotary stage enables the second coupling device to be adjusted and locked in the rotation direction around the Z-axis. The eccentric adapter plate is positioned in space by means of the eccentric adjustable connecting rod. The connecting rod is used to connect the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device and the second coupling device.

[0009] Furthermore, the third coupling device clamping and debugging device includes a mounting base, an XYZ three-axis translation stage, a position adjustment plate, a rotary stage around the X-axis, a rotary stage around the YZ-axis, and a coupling device clamp. The mounting base is used to mount the third coupling device clamping and debugging device on the slider, accepting the limit of the mechanical limit block to constrain the stroke of the third coupling device clamping and debugging device. The XYZ three-axis translation stage enables the third coupling device to be precisely adjusted and locked along the X, Y, and Z axes. The position adjustment plate is used to adjust the spatial position of the coupling device clamp and reserve operating space for the adjustment of the fourth coupling device clamping and debugging device. The rotary stage around the X-axis provides the first coupling device with a degree of freedom for rotational adjustment around the X-axis. The rotary stage around the YZ-axis provides the first coupling device with two degrees of freedom for rotational adjustment around the Y and Z axes. The coupling device clamp clamps the third coupling device by threading.

[0010] Furthermore, the fourth coupling device clamping and debugging device includes a height-increasing plate, an XYZ three-axis translational displacement stage, a Z-axis rotary stage, a position adjustment plate, a YZ-axis rotary stage, and a connecting rod. The height-increasing plate is used to increase the height of the connecting rod to a suitable position while ensuring the rigidity of the fourth coupling device clamping and debugging device. The XYZ three-axis translational displacement stage enables the fourth coupling device to be precisely adjusted and locked along the X, Y, and Z axes. The Z-axis rotary stage allows the position adjustment plate, the YZ-axis rotary stage, and the connecting rod to rotate along the Z-axis, switching between workstation and non-workstation positions, and increasing the space available when operating the coupling device base fixing seat and installing the dispensing assembly. The position adjustment plate is used to reserve space and install the YZ-axis rotary stage and the connecting rod. The YZ-axis rotary stage provides the fourth coupling device with two degrees of freedom for rotational adjustment around the Y and Z axes. The function and working principle of the connecting rod are the same as those of the connecting rod in the second coupling device clamping and debugging device.

[0011] Furthermore, the coupling device base mounting bracket includes a base, a coupling substrate, a Y-axis fixing assembly, a Z-axis fixing nut, a Z-axis fixing nut baffle, and a shaped screw; the base is used to install the coupling device base mounting bracket; the coupled optical device is cured onto the coupling substrate; the Y-axis fixing assembly cooperates with the base to fix the coupling substrate in the Y direction; the Z-axis fixing nut, Z-axis fixing nut baffle, and shaped screw work together to achieve the following: when rotating the Z-axis fixing nut, due to the restriction of the Z-axis fixing nut baffle, the Z-axis movement of the threaded pair is achieved by the shaped screw, thereby fixing the coupling substrate on the Z-axis.

[0012] Furthermore, the dispensing assembly is used to fix the dispensing assembly device and the coupling device base fixing seat.

[0013] Furthermore, the dispensing assembly includes a dispensing assembly base plate, a heightening fixing plate, a dispensing syringe fixing plate, a C-clamp, a dispensing syringe, and a guide light rod; the dispensing assembly base plate is connected to the fixing seat, the heightening fixing plate is used to fix the coupling device base fixing seat, the dispensing syringe fixing plate provides a suitable height for the dispensing syringe, the C-clamp is used to clamp and fix the dispensing syringe, the dispensing syringe is used to store and use the adhesive for curing the optical device, and can realize dispensing on the bottom and side surfaces of the optical device; the guide light rod enables the dispensing syringe to move along the X-axis, which facilitates the sequential alignment of the dispensing nozzle with the first coupling device, the second coupling device, the third coupling device, and the fourth coupling device.

[0014] Furthermore, the adjustment of the rotary table around the X-axis is achieved by rotating the lower end thread around the upper end axis, with two tension springs in the middle section eliminating thread clearance, increasing adjustment accuracy, and increasing the resistance of the thread rotation, thus having a locking effect.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention include:

[0016] This invention provides multiple degrees of freedom for adjusting multiple optical devices requiring coupling within a confined space. The structure is stable, reliable, easy to operate, highly efficient, and precise in adjustment. Specifically, the system can couple and solidify optical devices in an optical system using simple parts and a micrometer displacement stage. For example, the eccentric adapter plate, with the help of an eccentric adjustable connecting rod, improves the space utilization of the adhesive curing area; it also reserves operating space for adjusting the clamping and debugging device of the third coupling device. Another example is that the Y-axis fixing assembly, in conjunction with the base, completes the fixing of the coupling substrate in the Y-direction. This fixing method is convenient to operate and improves clamping efficiency. Furthermore, when rotating the Z-axis fixing nut, the Z-axis fixing nut baffle restricts the movement of the threaded pair along the Z-axis, which is achieved by a non-standard screw, thus fixing the coupling substrate along the Z-axis. Due to friction, the coupling substrate cannot move along the X-axis, thus reliably fixing the coupling substrate to the base. Attached Figure Description

The system composition is as follows. Figure 1 As shown. The overall operating procedure is as follows: First, the coupling device base is fixed on the coupling device base fixing seat 60. After coarsely adjusting the first coupling device clamping and adjusting device 20, the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device 30, the third coupling device clamping and adjusting device 40, and the fourth coupling device clamping and adjusting device 50 to the appropriate positions, the first coupling device, the second coupling device, the third coupling device, and the fourth coupling device are clamped or mounted respectively. Then, fine adjustments are made by using the knobs on the devices. The spatial position of the optical device to be coupled is checked by the external inspection parallel beam 80. After confirming that the position is correct, the optical device is cured by the dispensing group 70. Finally, each clamping and adjusting device is released in sequence.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] Based on Embodiment 1, the fixing base 10 serves to install, guide, and limit the system. For example... Figure 2As shown, the fixed base 10 consists of a base plate 101, corner bracket 102, rigidity reinforcing plate 103, profile 104, guide rail mounting adapter plate 105, slider 106, mechanical limit block 107, and guide rail 108. The base plate 101, corner bracket 102, rigidity reinforcing plate 103, and profile 104 form the system mounting carrier, ensuring the system's rigidity and other mechanical properties. The guide rail mounting adapter plate 105 connects to the profile hole positions, facilitating the fixation of the guide rail 108; the slider 106 serves as the mounting carrier for the first coupling device clamping and adjusting device 20, the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device 30, and the third coupling device clamping and adjusting device 40; the mechanical limit block 107 mechanically limits the movement stroke of the first coupling device clamping and adjusting device 20, the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device 30, and the third coupling device clamping and adjusting device 40 to prevent their lower ends from colliding; the guide rail 108 guides the movement trajectory of the first coupling device clamping and adjusting device 20, the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device 30, and the third coupling device clamping and adjusting device 40; the slider 106 and the guide rail 108 enable the initial adjustment of the positions of the first coupling device clamping and adjusting device 20, the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device 30, and the third coupling device clamping and adjusting device 40.

[0039] Example 3

[0040] Based on Embodiment 1, the first coupling device clamping and adjusting device 20 is used to clamp the first coupling device and can perform high-precision adjustment and locking in 6 degrees of freedom. Details of this device can be found in [link to embodiment 1]. Figure 3 The first coupling device clamping and adjusting device 20 consists of a mounting base 201, an XYZ three-axis translation stage 202, a position adjustment plate 203, a rotary stage around the X-axis 204, a rotary stage around the YZ-axis 205, and a coupling device clamp 206. The mounting base 201 is used to mount the first coupling device clamping and adjusting device 20 on the slider 106, and is limited by the mechanical limit block 107, constraining the stroke of the first coupling device clamping and adjusting device 20 to prevent collisions. The XYZ three-axis translation stage 202 enables the first coupling device to be precisely adjusted and locked along the X, Y, and Z axes. The position adjustment plate 203 is used to adjust the spatial position of the coupling device clamp 206 and reserve operating space for adjusting the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device 30. The rotary stage around the X-axis 204 provides the first coupling device with the freedom to rotate and adjust around the X-axis. Its adjustment is achieved by rotating the lower thread around the upper axis. Two tension springs in the middle eliminate thread clearance, increasing adjustment accuracy and resistance to thread rotation, providing a certain locking effect and increasing adjustment reliability. The YZ axis rotary table 205 provides the first coupling device with two degrees of freedom for rotation adjustment around the Y and Z axes, the principle of which is the same as the X axis rotary table 204, except that it rotates around a ball joint instead of around an axis. The coupling device clamp 206 clamps the first coupling device through thread rotation, ensuring the reliability of clamping during adjustment.

[0041] Example 4

[0042] Based on Embodiment 1, the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device 30 functions to clamp the second coupling device and can be adjusted and locked in four degrees of freedom. Details of this device can be found in [link to embodiment 1]. Figure 4 The second coupling device clamping and adjusting device 30 consists of a mounting base 301, an XYZ three-axis translational displacement stage 302, a Z-axis rotary stage 303, an eccentric adapter plate 304, and a connecting rod 305. The mounting base 301 is used to mount the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device 30 on the slider 106, and is limited by the mechanical limit block 107, constraining the stroke of the second coupling device clamping and adjusting device 30 to prevent collisions. The XYZ three-axis translational displacement stage 302 allows the second coupling device to be precisely adjusted and locked along the X, Y, and Z axes. The Z-axis rotary stage 303 allows the second coupling device to be adjusted and locked around the Z-axis. The eccentric adapter plate 304, with the help of the eccentrically adjustable connecting rod 305, improves the space utilization of the adhesive curing area; it also reserves operating space for adjusting the third coupling device clamping and adjusting device 40. The main function of the connecting rod 305 is to connect the second coupling device clamping and debugging device 30 and the second coupling device. When connecting, a small amount of glue can be used to fix it first to ensure that there is no relative displacement between the two. After debugging, the second coupling device is cured using the glue dispensing group 70. Finally, the glue between the second coupling device clamping and debugging device 30 and the second coupling device can be removed.

[0043] Example 5

[0044] Based on Example 1, the third coupling device clamping and adjusting device 40 is used to clamp the third coupling device and can be adjusted and locked in four degrees of freedom. Details of this device can be found in [link to example]. Figure 5 The third coupling device clamping and debugging device 40 consists of a mounting base 401, an XYZ three-axis translation stage 402, a position adjustment plate 403, a rotary stage around the X-axis 404, a rotary stage around the Y-axis and Z-axis 405, and a coupling device clamp 406; its structure and the function of each part are similar to those of the first coupling device clamping and debugging device 20.

[0045] Example 6

[0046] Based on Example 1, the fourth coupling device clamping and adjusting device 50 is used to clamp the fourth coupling device and can be adjusted and locked in 6 degrees of freedom. Details of this device can be found in [link to example]. Figure 6The fourth coupling device clamping and adjusting device 50 consists of a height-increasing plate 501, an XYZ three-axis translational displacement stage 502, a Z-axis rotary stage 503, a position adjustment plate 504, a YZ-axis rotary stage 505, and a connecting rod 506. The height-increasing plate 501 increases the spatial height of the connecting rod 506 to a suitable position while ensuring the rigidity of the fourth coupling device clamping and adjusting device 50. The XYZ three-axis translational displacement stage 502 enables precise adjustment and locking of the fourth coupling device along the X, Y, and Z axes. The Z-axis rotary stage 503 primarily functions to adjust the position... The position adjustment plate 504, the YZ axis rotary table 505, and the connecting rod 506 rotate along the Z axis, switching between the working position and the non-working position, increasing the space available when operating the coupling device base fixing seat 60 and installing the dispensing assembly 70; the main function of the position adjustment plate 504 is to reserve space and install the YZ axis rotary table 505 and the connecting rod 506; the YZ axis rotary table 505 provides the fourth coupling device with two degrees of freedom for rotational adjustment around the Y and Z axes; the function and working principle of the connecting rod 506 are the same as those of the connecting rod 305 in the second coupling device clamping and debugging device 30.

[0047] Example 7

[0048] Based on Embodiment 1, the coupling device base fixing seat 60 serves to secure the substrate to be coupled, ensuring that the coupling substrate 602 remains undisplaced during assembly and adjustment. For details of the coupling device base fixing seat 60, see [link to documentation]. Figure 7 The coupling device base fixing seat 60 consists of a base 601, a coupling base 602, a Y-direction fixing group 603, a Z-direction fixing nut 604, a Z-direction fixing nut baffle 605, and a special-shaped screw 606. The base 601 is used to install the coupling device base fixing seat 60; the coupling substrate 602 is the integration point for the coupled optical device, and the coupled optical device needs to be solidified onto this component; the Y-direction fixing group 603 cooperates with the base 601 to fix the coupling substrate 602 in the Y direction. This fixing method is convenient to operate and can improve the mounting efficiency; the Z-direction fixing nut 604, the Z-direction fixing nut baffle 605, and the special-shaped screw 606 work together to achieve the following: when rotating the Z-direction fixing nut 604, due to the restriction of the Z-direction fixing nut baffle 605, the Z-axis movement of the threaded pair is all achieved by the special-shaped screw 606, thereby fixing the coupling substrate 602 on the Z-axis; due to friction, the coupling substrate 602 cannot move along the X-axis. Thus, the coupling substrate 602 is reliably fixed on the base 601.

[0049] Example 8

[0050] Based on Example 1, the dispensing assembly 70 serves to fix the dispensing assembly components and the coupling device base fixing seat 60. See details below. Figure 8The dispensing assembly 70 consists of a dispensing assembly base plate 701, a heightening fixing plate 702, a dispensing syringe fixing plate 703, a C-clamp 704, a dispensing syringe 705, and a guide light rod 706. The base plate 701 integrates the module onto the fixing base 10; the heightening fixing plate 702 fixes the coupling device base fixing base 60; the dispensing syringe fixing plate 703 provides a suitable height for the dispensing syringe 705; the C-clamp 704 facilitates clamping and fixing the dispensing syringe 705; and the dispensing syringe 705 stores and uses adhesive for curing the optical devices, enabling dispensing onto the bottom and sides of the optical devices. The guide light rod 706 allows the dispensing syringe 705 to move along the X-axis, facilitating the sequential alignment of the dispensing nozzle with the first, second, third, and fourth coupling devices.

[0051] The external inspection of the parallel beam 80 is mainly to provide a basis for determining the spatial relative position of the coupled optical device.
