Abstract
Description
[0001] This application is a divisional application of Chinese application No. 202080005438.2, the foregoing contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] This application relates to the field of laser detection technology, and more particularly to a lidar and an automobile. Background Technology
[0003] LiDAR is a radar system that uses laser beams to detect the position, velocity, and other characteristics of a target object. Its working principle is that the transmitting module first emits an outgoing light signal for detection towards the target, and then the receiving module receives the reflected light signal reflected back from the target object. The reflected light signal is compared with the outgoing light signal, and after processing, relevant information about the target object can be obtained, such as parameters like distance, azimuth, height, velocity, attitude, and even shape.
[0004] When a lidar system has multiple laser transceivers, the distance and deflection angle of each transceiver relative to the galvanometer will affect the detection field of view corresponding to each reflector. To ensure the detection field of view meets the requirements, laser transceivers with larger mirror deflection angles relative to the galvanometer need to be adjusted to a greater distance from the galvanometer. However, this structural arrangement will increase the overall size of the lidar system. Summary of the Invention

In this application, to ensure that the laser detection field of view corresponding to each laser transceiver meets the requirements, the distance between each laser transceiver and the galvanometer is not adjusted. Instead, the distance and angle between each laser transceiver and the support surface of the base are adjusted through the adjustment structure. This structural arrangement allows for adjustment of the distance between the laser transceiver and the support surface of the base by setting the height of the adjustment structure, thereby adjusting the distance and deflection angle of the galvanometer relative to the laser transceiver. This adjusts the detection field of view offset corresponding to the edge reflector, ensuring the overall detection efficiency of the lidar in the target detection area, while avoiding the forced increase in the size of the lidar due to adjusting the detection field of view, thus reducing the overall space occupied by the lidar.

[0045] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0046] LiDAR is a radar system that uses laser beams to detect the position, velocity, and other characteristics of a target object. Its working principle is that the transmitting module first emits an outgoing light signal for detection towards the target, and then the receiving module receives the reflected light signal reflected back from the target object. The reflected light signal is compared with the outgoing light signal, and after processing, relevant information about the target object can be obtained, such as parameters like distance, azimuth, height, velocity, attitude, and even shape.
[0047] A lidar system includes a laser transceiver and a galvanometer. The laser light generated by the transceiver is directed towards the galvanometer, which then uses displacement and deflection to direct the emitted laser light along a preset path toward the detection area. A lidar system can have multiple laser transceivers, each of which directs its own laser light toward the galvanometer.
[0048] When a lidar system has multiple laser transceivers, the distance and deflection angle of the galvanometer relative to each transceiver will affect the detection field of view for each transceiver. Laser transceivers located at the edges are farther from the galvanometer and have larger deflection angles, thus shifting their detection field of view upwards, deviating from the horizontal 0-degree detection field of view. Figure 1 As shown, it displays five detection fields of view. The edge detection fields on both sides are offset upward from the horizontal 0-degree detection field of view guideline a. It can be understood that the horizontal 0-degree detection field of view is the target detection area. When the edge detection field of view deviates from the horizontal detection field of view, the edge transceiver will not be able to detect objects in the target area, which will affect the overall detection efficiency of the lidar for the target area.
[0049] like Figures 2 to 12 As shown, this embodiment provides a lidar 100, which has multiple laser transceivers 141. The lidar 100 in this embodiment can achieve a smaller size while ensuring that the reflected laser field of view formed by each laser transceiver 141 meets the requirements. Specifically, the lidar 100 in this embodiment includes a housing, a laser transceiver module 140, a reflection module 120 (in other embodiments, the reflection module 120 may not be included; the addition of the reflection module 120 can further reduce the size of the lidar 100), and a galvanometer module 130. It should be noted that, for ease of description, in this embodiment, the lidar 100 is defined as having a central optical path axis 150 located in the middle of the detection area. The central optical path axis 150 can be understood as the axis 150 of the lidar 100 pointing directly forward.
[0050] The housing includes a base 110, which can be a regular plate or an irregular structure. The base 110 can be located inside the lidar 100, providing a carrier for other components of the lidar 100. The base 110 can also be part of the outer shell of the lidar 100. The base 110 includes a bearing surface 111 facing the interior of the lidar 100, to which the galvanometer module 130 of the lidar 100 is fixed. The bearing surface 111 can be a plane or an irregular curved surface; its specific shape depends on the specific assembly requirements.
[0051] The base 110 has an adjustment structure 160 on its bearing surface 111 for adjusting the distance between the reflective module 120 and the bearing surface 111. The adjustment structure 160 can be an independent component and connected to the bearing surface 111, for example, the adjustment structure 160 can be bonded to the bearing surface 111 or threadedly connected. Alternatively, the adjustment structure 160 can be integrally formed with the base 110, that is, the adjustment structure 160 is a protrusion or recess on the bearing surface 111 of the base 110.
[0052] The reflection module 120 includes multiple reflectors 121, each of which is used to reflect the emitted light from the lidar 100 to the galvanometer module 130. For example... Figures 3 to 5 As shown, Figure 5 The reflective module 120 in the present invention has seven reflective components, but the three reflective components located in the middle and on both sides are used for ROI area detection and scanning and belong to ROI area detection reflectors. Therefore, they are not used as reflectors 121 in this embodiment.
[0053] This embodiment has four reflectors 121 (in other embodiments, the number of reflectors is not limited and can be two or more). Each reflector 121 independently receives the emitted light from inside the lidar 100 and reflects the emitted light to the galvanometer module 130. Specifically, each reflector 121 is fixed to an adjustment structure 160. The adjustment structure 160 is configured such that each reflector 121 mounted thereon has a corresponding distance relative to the bearing surface 111 (e.g., as shown in the image). Figure 6 As shown, the reflectors 121 located on both sides of the central optical path axis 150 and at equal distances from the central optical path axis 150 have the same height, so that the outgoing light reflected by each reflector 121 forms a preset laser detection field of view (specifically, an optimal laser detection field of view) outward from the lidar 100. In other optional embodiments, when the reflectors 121 are installed on the adjustment structure 160, the distances of each reflector 121 relative to the supporting surface 111 can also be different, so that the outgoing light reflected by each reflector 121 forms an optimal laser detection field of view outward from the lidar 100.
[0054] It should be noted that in this embodiment, when the adjustment structure 160 protrudes entirely from the bearing surface 111, the distance from the reflector 121 to the bearing surface 111 is determined by the part of the reflector 121 closest to the bearing surface 111, rather than by the center of the reflector 121. Because the adjustment structure 160 can raise the reflector 121 corresponding to the emitted laser that deviates from the central optical path axis 150 relative to the bearing surface 111 by a certain distance, this structure can counteract the impact on the laser detection area caused by its deviation from the central optical path axis 150. Since the space occupied by the reflector 121 after raising it is the original extra space, this structural setting does not occupy additional volume, keeping the overall volume of the lidar 100 unchanged. Therefore, compared to lidars in the prior art, the lidar 100 in this embodiment can be made smaller.
[0055] When the adjustment structure 160 is integrally formed with the base 110, the adjustment structure 160 can consist entirely of bosses on the bearing surface 111, entirely of grooves on the bearing surface 111, or partly of bosses and partly of grooves on the bearing surface 111. All three cases allow adjustment of the arrangement height of the reflector 121 relative to the base 110. When the adjustment structure 160 consists entirely of bosses on the bearing surface 111, the adjustment structure 160 can include multiple second bosses 161 disposed on the bearing surface 111, with each reflector 121 corresponding to one of the second bosses 161. The dimension of each second boss 161 along the direction perpendicular to the bearing surface 111 is equal to the distance from the reflector 121 connected to it to the bearing surface 111. That is, the arrangement height of each reflector 121 relative to the base 110 is determined by the dimension of each second boss 161 along the direction perpendicular to the bearing surface 111. When the dimension of the second boss 161 in the direction perpendicular to the bearing surface 111 is larger, the distance of the corresponding reflector 121 relative to the bearing surface 111 is larger; when the dimension of the second boss 161 in the direction perpendicular to the bearing surface 111 is smaller, the distance of the corresponding reflector 121 relative to the bearing surface 111 is smaller.
[0056] To facilitate the placement of multiple reflectors 121, each reflector 121 can be arranged around the galvanometer module 130. Specifically, the projections of the centers of each reflector 121 onto the bearing surface 111 can be arranged along a common arc. When the reflectors 121 are arranged in the above structure, to obtain the optimal detection field of view, the adjustment structure 160 can be configured such that the distance between the reflector 121 that is further away from the central optical path axis 150 and the bearing surface 111 is greater. That is, the dimension of the second protrusion 161 perpendicular to the bearing surface 111 is larger the further away from the central optical path axis 150. This can reduce the height of the field of view of the reflector 121 located far from the central optical path axis 150 from the central 0-degree field of view guideline. The specific detection field of view effect is as follows: Figure 10This improves the detection efficiency of edge detection modules, thereby enhancing the overall detection efficiency of the lidar.
[0057] The lidar 100 includes a laser transceiver module 140, which is disposed within the housing of the lidar 100. For example... Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the reflection module 120 is arranged on one side of the galvanometer surface of the galvanometer module 130, and the laser transceiver module 140 is arranged on the side of the galvanometer module 130 opposite to the reflection module 120. The laser transceiver module 140 includes multiple laser transceiver devices 141, and each laser transceiver device 141 generates an outgoing laser beam that is directed one-to-one towards each reflecting mirror 121. The number of laser transceiver devices 141 can be the same as the number of reflecting mirrors 121, and the two correspond one-to-one. Of course, in other embodiments, the number of laser transceiver devices 141 can be more than the number of reflecting mirrors 121, and the outgoing laser beams generated by multiple laser transceiver devices 141 can be directed simultaneously towards the same reflecting mirror 121. When the laser transceiver module 140 and the reflection module 120 are located on opposite sides of the galvanometer module 130, the integration of the lidar 100 can be improved, and the overall space occupied by the lidar 100 can be reduced.
[0058] The laser transceiver 141 can be fixed to the base 110 and other locations within the housing. For better integration, each laser transceiver 141 can be fixed to the base 110. When the laser transceiver 141 is fixed to the base 110, each laser transceiver 141 is positioned on the adjustment structure 160. The adjustment structure 160 is configured such that each laser transceiver 141 mounted thereon has a corresponding distance relative to the bearing surface 111, so that the emitted laser light generated by each laser transceiver 141 is directed along a preset path towards the corresponding reflector 121. This structure ensures that the positions of each laser transceiver 141 correspond to those of each reflector 121.
[0059] Similarly, the portion of the adjusting structure 160 connecting the laser transceiver 141 can consist entirely of bosses on the bearing surface 111, can consist entirely of grooves on the bearing surface 111, or can consist partly of bosses and partly of grooves on the bearing surface 111. All three cases allow adjustment of the arrangement height of the laser transceiver 141 relative to the base 110. When the portion of the adjusting structure 160 connecting the laser transceiver 141 consists entirely of bosses on the bearing surface 111, the adjusting structure 160 also includes multiple first bosses 162 disposed on the bearing surface 111. Each laser transceiver 141 is connected to a corresponding first boss 162. The dimension of each first boss 162 along the direction perpendicular to the bearing surface 111 is equal to the distance from the laser transceiver 141 connected to it to the bearing surface 111. That is, the arrangement height of each laser transceiver 141 relative to the base 110 is determined by the dimension of each first boss 162 along the direction perpendicular to the bearing surface 111. When the size of the first boss 162 in the direction perpendicular to the bearing surface 111 is larger, the distance between the corresponding laser transceiver 141 and the bearing surface 111 is larger; when the size of the first boss 162 in the direction perpendicular to the bearing surface 111 is smaller, the distance between the corresponding laser transceiver 141 and the bearing surface 111 is smaller.
[0060] In one embodiment, when a laser transceiver 141 emits a laser towards a reflector 121, it can be assumed that the laser transceiver 141 corresponds to the reflector 121, and the first boss 162 connected to the laser transceiver 141 corresponds to the second boss 161 connected to the reflector 121. Specifically, the dimensions of the corresponding first boss 162 and second boss 161 perpendicular to the bearing surface 111 can be made the same, so that the corresponding laser transceiver 141 and the reflector 121 are raised to the same height.
[0061] In one embodiment, the base 110 can be the outer shell of the lidar 100, wherein the bearing surface 111 of the base 110 is its wall facing the interior of the lidar 100. In this case, the base 110 also includes an outer wall surface 112 opposite to the bearing surface 111, and the outer wall surface 112 is located outside the lidar 100.
[0062] When the adjustment structure 160 is integrally formed with the base 110, since the adjustment structure 160 is a protrusion on the bearing surface 111, it increases both the material and weight of the base 110. To reduce both the material and weight of the base 110, in this embodiment, multiple first heat dissipation grooves (not shown in the figure) can be provided on the outer wall surface 112 of the base 110, and each first heat dissipation groove is arranged correspondingly within the orthographic projection area of each first protrusion 161 on the outer wall surface 112. The first heat dissipation grooves can also increase the external surface area of the lidar 100, thus improving its heat dissipation performance. The size and depth of the first heat dissipation grooves depend on specific requirements. Each first protrusion 161 and each second protrusion 162 can be provided with one or multiple first heat dissipation grooves. Furthermore, when the material strength of the base 110 is sufficient, the depth of the first heat dissipation grooves can be greater than the minimum wall thickness of the base 110. Similarly, multiple second heat dissipation slots 113 can also be provided on the outer wall surface 112, with each second heat dissipation slot 113 corresponding to the orthographic projection area of each second protrusion 162 on the outer wall surface 112. The first heat dissipation slot can dissipate heat for the reflective module 120, and the second heat dissipation slots 113 can dissipate heat for the laser transceiver module 140.
[0063] When the laser transceiver module 140 and the reflector module 120 are located on opposite sides of the galvanometer module 130, the height of the galvanometer module 130 relative to the laser transceiver module 140 and the reflector module 120 can be adjusted to direct the emitted light from the laser transceiver module 140 toward the reflector module 120. In one embodiment, such as Figure 11 As shown, the galvanometer module 130 may include a bracket 131 and a galvanometer device 132. The bracket 131 is connected to the bearing surface 111, and the galvanometer device 132 is disposed on the bracket 131. The bracket 131 may include clearance channels through which the emitted light generated by each laser transceiver 141 passes and is directed toward each corresponding reflector 121. The bracket 131 is used to raise the height of the galvanometer module 130, and the clearance channels within the bracket 131 are used to allow the emitted light generated by the laser transceiver module 140 to pass through and be directed toward the reflector module 120.
[0064] Specifically, the galvanometer module 130 may further include a light-shielding plate 133, which is disposed in the clearance channel to block light reflected from the reflector module 120 to the laser transceiver module 140. The light-shielding plate 133 can be a separate component connected to the bracket 131, or it can be integrally formed with the bracket 131. The light-shielding plate 133 can prevent stray light reflected from the reflector module 120 from returning to the laser transceiver 141, thereby affecting the detection accuracy. When the reflector module 120 has multiple reflectors 121, the light-shielding plate 133 may include multiple clearance holes 1331, with the outgoing light generated by each laser transceiver 141 passing through a corresponding clearance hole 1331 and heading towards the reflector 121. The number of clearance holes 1331 corresponds one-to-one with the number of laser transceivers 141. When the number of laser transceivers 141 is the same as the number of reflectors 121, the number of laser transceivers 141, reflectors 121, and clearance holes 1331 are all the same. The size of the clearance holes 1331 depends on the actual requirements and will not be elaborated here.
[0065] like Figures 12 to 14 As shown, a second aspect of this application also provides a vehicle 10, which includes the lidar 100 in any of the above embodiments. Specifically, the vehicle 10 also includes a vehicle body, and the lidar 100 is mounted on the exterior of the vehicle body or embedded in the vehicle body. When the lidar 100 is disposed outside the vehicle body, the lidar 100 is preferably disposed on the roof of the vehicle body.
