Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a reflector control device, and in particular to a reflector surface shape-driving force action mechanism research method and system. Background Art

[0002] At present, in order to obtain higher resolution and light-gathering capability, the aperture of optical components and systems is getting larger and larger. Relevant research shows that when the diameter-to-thickness ratio of the reflector remains unchanged, as the aperture increases, the deformation caused by the reflector's own weight increases with the square of the aperture, which will seriously affect the surface shape of the reflector and further affect the imaging quality of the optical system.

[0003] There are currently two ways to solve this problem: the first is to conduct sufficient simulation optimization in the early stage of structural design, and design a reasonable lightweight structure of the reflector and its supporting structure to avoid deformation of the reflector; the other is to adopt the control idea of ​​active optics, and set a multi-point active adjustment device on the back of the main mirror of the large-aperture optical system as the wavefront compensation link of the optical system, and actively adjust the main reflector surface shape according to the actual imaging effect of the optical system to improve the imaging quality of the system. At present, the existing multi-point active adjustment devices mainly use hydraulic systems and piezoelectric ceramic systems, which have high hardware costs and complex structures, and lack relevant quantitative indicators in the control process, making it difficult to perform closed-loop control. Summary of the invention

The method is special in that it includes the following steps:

[0007] 1] Detect the initial surface shape of the reflector to be tested and obtain the test data;

[0008] 2] Convert and process the acquired detection data to obtain the required initial surface data format;

[0009] 3] Taking the expected face shape as the optimization target, the initial face shape data is inversely calculated to obtain multiple positions where the actuating force is applied and the magnitude of the actuating force at the corresponding positions;

[0010] 4】Apply corresponding driving forces to multiple positions of the mirror to be measured according to the multiple obtained positions where the driving forces are applied and the magnitudes of the driving forces at the corresponding positions;

[0011] 5】Perform surface shape detection on the mirror to be measured to which the driving force is applied. If the expected surface shape is achieved, the surface shape adjustment is completed; otherwise, return to step 1 to re-perform the detection and adjustment until the requirements of the expected surface shape are met;

[0072] To make the advantages and features of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0073] A research method for the acting mechanism of reflecting mirror surface shape-actuating force is used to provide quantitative indicators for the surface shape control of a reflecting mirror, that is, to study the position and magnitude of the actuating force applied to the reflecting mirror, and specifically includes the following steps:

[0074] 1】Detect the initial surface shape of the reflecting mirror 1 to be measured to obtain detection data;

[0075] 2】Perform data conversion and processing on the obtained detection data to obtain the required initial surface shape data format;

[0076] 3】Taking the expected surface shape as the optimization target, perform inverse operations on the obtained initial surface shape data to obtain the positions of multiple applied actuating forces and the magnitudes of the actuating forces at the corresponding positions;

[0077] 4】Apply corresponding driving forces to multiple positions of the mirror to be measured according to the multiple obtained positions where the driving forces are applied and the magnitudes of the driving forces at the corresponding positions;

[0078] 5】Perform surface shape detection on the mirror 1 to be measured to which the driving force is applied. If the expected surface shape is achieved, the surface shape adjustment is completed; otherwise, return to step 1 to re-perform detection and adjustment until the requirements of the expected surface shape are met;

[0079] 6】Obtain the mechanism relationship between the surface shape of the mirror 1 to be measured and the action of the driving force.

[0080] To implement the above method for studying the mechanism of the mirror surface shape - driving force action, the present invention also provides a system for studying the mechanism of the mirror surface shape - driving force action, as Figure 1 shown, which includes a metrological surface shape adjustment device 2, a stress - strain test system 3, a mirror surface shape detection device 4, and a multi - dimensional adjustment table 5.

In other embodiments of the present invention, the mirror 1 to be measured can also be a spherical mirror or an aspherical mirror, and the parameters are not limited to this.

[0081] The metrological surface shape adjustment device 2, as the main component of this system, is mainly used to provide support for the mirror 1 to be measured and apply a driving force to change the surface shape of the mirror 1 to be measured. As Figure 2 、 Figure 3As shown in the figure, the metering surface shape control device 2 includes a base 21, a turntable 22, two support frames 23, a metering mirror frame 24, a quick-release screw sleeve 25, an azimuth axis 26, two horizontal axes 27, and two groups of limit screw sets 28. A first through hole 222 is provided in the turntable 22, and a set of radial ball bearings 212 is provided at the corresponding position on the base 21.

The aperture size of the second through hole 231 is adjusted by pressing the screw 232 to change the tightness of the shaft-hole fit, so that the hole and the shaft are tightly held. As Figure 4 shown, the metering mirror frame 24 is a hollow cylinder for installing the mirror 1 to be measured. A plurality of support cylindrical surfaces 245, cementing cylindrical surfaces 246, and installation and adjustment surfaces 247 are radially arranged in a staggered manner on its inner wall.

Among them, the two pitch fine adjustment nuts 2211 are respectively located on the front and rear sides of the metering frame 24, and the two pitch fine adjustment screws 2212 are screwed into the corresponding pitch fine adjustment nuts 2211 and abut against the metering frame 24, for driving the metering frame 24 to rotate in pitch to adjust and lock the pitch angle of the mirror 1 to be measured.

[0082] Among them, the fixed actuator assembly 243 and the movable actuator assembly 244, as important components of the metering surface shape control device 2, are further described below in terms of their specific structures.

[0083] Such as Figure 8As shown, the movable actuator assembly 244 includes a first handwheel 2441, a first double-headed stud 2442, a slide base 2443, a first slider 2444, a first guide pin 2445, a first micro-force sensor 2446, a first actuator rod 2447, a first tension plate 2448, and a first bonding plate 2449. The slide base 2443 is provided as a hollow boss, the hollow end of which opens towards the direction of the long slot 249, and both sides of the slide base 2443 are respectively slidably connected and matched with the T-shaped chute 248 on the branch path through the T-shaped screw component 2450, so that the movable actuator assembly 244 can move radially along the long slot 249 and be locked at a predetermined position; specifically, the T-shaped screw component 2450 is composed of a T-shaped screw, a hexagonal nut, and a flat washer. One end of the first slider 2444 is slidably matched with a small clearance on the inner wall of the hollow boss of the slide base 2443, and the other end passes through the long slot 249 and is fixedly connected to one end of the first micro-force sensor 2446; the head of the first guide pin 2445 is a cylindrical section, and first one-word slots 24431 are respectively opened on two side walls of the slide base 2443. The cylindrical section of the head of the first guide pin 2445 is matched with the first one-word slot 24431, and its threaded end is connected to the first slider 2444, which is used for guiding when the first slider 2444 moves; the first double-headed stud 2442 includes a left shaft end and a right shaft end. There are two threads with opposite directions on the left shaft end of the first double-headed stud 2442, namely a first left-handed thread and a first right-handed thread. The first left-handed thread is threadedly matched with the first slider 2444, and the first right-handed thread is threadedly matched with the slide base 2443; the right shaft section of the first double-headed stud 2442 is used to connect the first handwheel 2441. The first handwheel 2441 is in small clearance fit with the right shaft section of the first double-headed stud 2442 and transmits torque through a pin; the other end of the first micro-force sensor 2446 is connected to one end of the first actuator rod 2447; the other end of the first actuator rod 2447 is connected to one end of the first bonding plate 2449 through the first tension plate 2448. In this embodiment, the first tension plate 2448 is composed of two upper and lower cover plates, which are used to enable the first actuator rod 2447 to pass through and be bonded to the first bonding plate 2449; the other end of the first bonding plate 2449 is used to be bonded to the corresponding position of the mirror 1 to be measured. The specific implementation principle of the movable actuator assembly 244 is as follows: Rotate the first handwheel 2441 of the movable actuator assembly 244. Since the thread directions of the left shaft end and the right shaft end of the first double-headed stud 2442 are opposite, the first handwheel 2441 drives the first double-headed stud 2442 to rotate, causing the first slider 2444 to move forward or backward. Pressure or tension is transmitted to the corresponding position of the mirror 1 to be measured through the first micro-force sensor 2446, the first actuator rod 2447, the first bonding plate 2449, and the first tension plate 2448, resulting in a change in the surface shape of the mirror 1 to be measured.

[0084] As Figure 9As shown, in the fixed actuator assembly 243, except that the fixed seat 2433 is used to replace the slide seat 2443 in the movable actuator assembly 244, the other structures are basically the same. The fixed actuator assembly 243 specifically includes a second handwheel 2431, a second double-headed stud 2432, a fixed seat 2433, a second slider 2434, a second guide pin 2435, a second micro-force sensor 2436, a second actuator rod 2437, a second tension plate 2438, and a second bonding plate 2439; a central hole is provided at the center of the actuator mounting bracket 242; the fixed seat 2433 is provided as a hollow boss, the opening of its hollow end faces the central hole of the actuator mounting bracket 242, and the fixed seat 2433 is fixedly connected to the actuator mounting bracket 242; one end of the second slider 2434 is in small-gap sliding fit with the inner wall of the hollow boss of the fixed seat 2433, and the other end passes through the central hole of the actuator mounting bracket 242 and is fixedly connected to one end of the second micro-force sensor 2436; the head of the second guide pin 2435 is a cylindrical section, and second one-word grooves 24331 are respectively provided on two side walls of the fixed seat 2433. The cylindrical section of the head of the second guide pin 2435 is matched with the second one-word groove 24331, and its threaded end is matched with the second slider 2434 for guiding during movement; the second double-headed stud 2432 includes a left shaft end and a right shaft end. There are two sections of threads with opposite directions on its left shaft end, namely a second left-handed thread and a second right-handed thread. The second left-handed thread is in threaded fit with the second slider 2434, and the second right-handed thread is in threaded fit with the fixed seat 2433; the right shaft section of the second double-headed stud 2432 is used to connect the second handwheel 2431, and the second handwheel 2431 is in small-gap fit with the right shaft section of the first double-headed stud 2432 and transmits torque through a pin; the other end of the second micro-force sensor 2436 is connected to one end of the second actuator rod 2437, and the other end of the second actuator rod 2437 is connected to one end of the second bonding plate 2439 through the second tension plate 2438. In this embodiment, the second tension plate 2438 is composed of two upper and lower cover plates, which are used to allow the second actuator rod 2437 to pass through and bond with the second bonding plate 2439; the other end of the second bonding plate 2439 is used to bond with the central position of the mirror 1 to be measured. The specific implementation principle of the fixed actuator assembly 243 is as follows: Rotate the second handwheel 2431 of the fixed actuator assembly 243. Since the thread directions of the left shaft end and the right shaft end of the second double-headed stud 2432 are opposite, the second handwheel 2431 drives the second double-headed stud 2432 to rotate, causing the second slider 2434 to move forward or backward. Pressure or tension is transmitted to the central position of the mirror 1 to be measured through the second micro-force sensor 2436, the second actuator rod 2437, the second bonding plate 2439, and the second tension plate 2438, resulting in a change in the surface shape of the mirror 1 to be measured.

[0085] The stress-strain test system 3 is a multi-channel real-time detection and processing device, which is respectively connected to the second micro tension-compression sensor 2436 in the fixed actuator assembly 243 and the first micro tension-compression sensor 2446 in the movable actuator assembly 244, and is used to monitor and display the magnitude of the driving force in real time. The reflecting mirror surface shape detection device 4 is mainly used to detect the surface shape of the reflecting mirror 1 to be measured. Usually, a laser interferometer or a wavefront sensor is used. It is located in front of the reflecting mirror 1 to be measured, and the optical axis of the reflecting mirror surface shape detection device 4 coincides with the optical axis of the reflecting mirror 1 to be measured. The multi-dimensional adjustment table 5 is arranged at the lower part of the base 21 and is used to drive the reflecting mirror 1 on the metrological surface shape control device 2 to perform multi-dimensional attitude adjustment through adjusting the multi-dimensional adjustment table 5, so as to align the optical axis of the reflecting mirror 1 to be measured with the optical axis of the reflecting mirror surface shape detection device 4.

[0086] Specifically, for a reflecting mirror surface shape-actuating force action mechanism research system of the present invention, the method for realizing the research on the reflecting mirror surface shape-actuating force action mechanism is as Figure 10 shown, and the specific steps are as follows:

[0087] 1. Install the reflecting mirror 1 to be measured

[0088] Install the reflecting mirror 1 to be measured in the metrological mirror frame 24. During installation, make the reflecting mirror 1 to be measured abut against the polytetrafluoroethylene backing plate on the supporting cylindrical surface 245 of the metrological mirror frame 24 to achieve V-shaped circumferential positioning. Then, combined with the positioning of the reflecting mirror 1 by the front-end surface pressing plate 241 of the metrological mirror frame 24 and the positioning of the reflecting mirror 1 by the movable actuator assembly 244 and the fixed actuator assembly 243 arranged on the rear end surface, the micro-stress assembly of the reflecting mirror 1 to be measured is realized, providing a good initial surface shape for the research.

[0089] 2. Build a self-collimation detection optical path between the reflecting mirror surface shape detection device 4 and the reflecting mirror 1 to be measured, and adjust the azimuth angle and pitch angle of the reflecting mirror 1 to be measured through the azimuth adjustment assembly 211 and the pitch adjustment assembly 221. After the adjustment is completed, use the collimation interference method to detect the initial surface shape of the reflecting mirror 1 to be measured.

[0090] 3. Import the detection data of the reflecting mirror surface shape detection device 4 into the optical-mechanical integrated analysis software, and perform data conversion through the optical-mechanical integrated analysis software to obtain the initial surface shape data.

[0091] 4. Take the expected surface shape as the optimization target, and use the optical-mechanical integrated analysis software to perform inverse operation on the obtained initial surface shape data to obtain the positions of multiple applied driving forces and the magnitudes of the driving forces at the corresponding positions.

[0092] 5】Adjust the movement of the 6 movable actuator components 244 according to multiple positions for applying actuation force, and apply the actuation force according to the magnitude of the actuation force at the corresponding positions through the 6 movable actuator components 244 and the fixed actuator component 243. During the application of the actuation force, the change in the magnitude of the actuation force is monitored in real time through the stress-strain test system 3;

[0093] 6】Perform a surface shape detection on the mirror 1 to be tested for which the actuation force is applied. If the expected surface shape is achieved, the surface shape regulation of the mirror 1 to be tested is completed; otherwise, return to step 2 to perform iterative detection calculation and adjustment again until the expected surface shape requirement is met;

[0094] 7】Obtain the mechanism relationship between the surface shape of the mirror 1 to be tested and the action of the actuation force.

[0095] By studying the mechanism relationship between the surface shape of the mirror and the action of the actuation force, the present invention provides a quantitative index for the subsequent surface shape regulation of the mirror in a complex environment, and provides a basis for the position and magnitude of the actuation force applied to the mirror.

[0096] As described above, it is only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, rather than to limit it. For those of ordinary professional skills in the art, the specific technical solution recorded in the above embodiments can be modified, or some of the technical features can be equivalently replaced, and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solution deviate from the scope of the technical solution protected by the present invention.
