[0039] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. In addition, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0040] The scanning reflector assembly of the present invention comprises an orthogonal azimuth axis mechanism, a pitch axis mechanism and a reflector 9. The assembly is fixed to the optical system structure body through an azimuth seat 22 to realize the scanning, image stabilization, tracking, measurement and other functions of the optical system.

[0041] The azimuth axis system and the pitch axis system are two mutually perpendicular rotation axes, the normal of the reflector 9 is perpendicular to the pitch rotation axis, and the center of mass of the reflector 9 and the pitch axis system coincides with the pitch rotation axis. The azimuth axis system and the pitch axis system are connected by connecting flange 21 and pitch seat 1 using screws and cylindrical pins. The reflector 9 and the pitch axis system are connected by angle measuring shaft 4 and pitch motor shaft 14 using screws and cylindrical pins, which ensures assembly processability.

[0042] The pitch axis mechanism adopts a fixed support-floating support structure to compensate for the length change of the axis system caused by thermal deformation and manufacturing and installation errors, and reduce the deformation of the mirror surface of the reflector 9 under a wide temperature difference load. The pitch seat 1, the pitch motor shaft 14, the angle measuring shaft 4 and the base material of the reflector 9 are all made of silicon-aluminum alloy with the same mass fraction. The surface of the silicon-aluminum alloy is modified with nickel-phosphorus alloy. Combined with magnetorheological shaping polishing and CCOS polishing process, the high surface accuracy and sub-nanometer surface roughness of the reflector 9 are achieved, and the mass fraction of silicon-aluminum alloy and the phosphorus content of nickel-phosphorus alloy are controlled to achieve matching of thermal expansion coefficients, reduce bimetallic effect, and reduce thermal stress deformation of the reflector 9 under a wide temperature difference load.

[0043] Based on topology optimization technology, the reflector 9 is designed to be lightweight. Based on optical-mechanical integration analysis technology, the reflector 9 is designed with groove structures in four directions, which can reduce the assembly stress and thermal stress transmitted to the mirror body, thereby reducing the stress deformation of the reflective surface of the reflector 9. In addition, the assembly accuracy of the components is guaranteed through stress relief technology, ultra-precision turning and adjustment.

[0044] The weight reduction design of the reflector 9 adopts a closed back plate structure and has reinforcing ribs designed in the horizontal and vertical directions.

The inner ring of the deep groove ball bearing 15 is fixed to the pitch motor shaft 14, and the outer ring and the pitch seat 1 are matched with a small clearance shaft hole, which can move axially, and can compensate for the length change of the pitch axis system caused by manufacturing and installation errors and temperature differences, ensure the stiffness of the pitch axis system, and reduce the deformation of the mirror surface of the reflector 9 under assembly and temperature difference loads.

[0047] The reflecting surface of the reflector 9 is higher than the rotation axis of the pitch axis system mechanism. Through mass attribute analysis and structural optimization, the center of mass of the reflector 9 and the pitch axis system mechanism is ensured to be located on the rotation axis, avoiding eccentricity and additional counterweight, reducing the moment of inertia, and improving the servo resonance frequency of the component.

[0048] The connecting surfaces between the reflector 9 and the goniometric shaft 4 and the pitch motor shaft 14 are processed by ultra-precision turning to achieve a flatness of the connecting surfaces less than 1 micron, ensuring that no assembly stress deformation occurs when the reflector 9 is assembled; the deep groove ball bearing inner ring mating surface 28 and the deep groove ball bearing mounting end surface 29 of the pitch motor shaft, the angular contact bearing inner ring mating surface 30 and the angular contact bearing mounting end surface 31 of the goniometric shaft are all processed by ultra-precision turning, and the goniometric shaft 4 is installed and adjusted using an ultra-precision air-floating turntable 36 to improve the coaxiality of the deep groove ball bearing inner ring mating surface 28 of the pitch motor shaft and the angular contact bearing inner ring mating surface 30 of the goniometric shaft, and to improve the parallelism of the deep groove ball bearing mounting end surface 29 of the pitch motor shaft and the angular contact bearing mounting end surface 31 of the goniometric shaft, thereby reducing the mirror deformation of the reflector 9 assembly and ensuring the angular shaking accuracy of the axis of rotation.

The rotor of the drive motor 17 is mounted on the azimuth motor shaft 24 by screw connection.

[0052] like Figure 3 As shown in (a) to (c) in the embodiment of the structural design of the reflector 9, the weight reduction design of the reflector 9 adopts a closed back plate structure, and reinforcing ribs are designed for the reflector 9 in the horizontal and vertical directions.

The mirror body and the connecting plate are integrally formed, and a stress unloading groove 12 is arranged between the mirror body and the connecting plate.

On the basis of ensuring the processing technology of the reflector 9, the comprehensive optimization of the lightweight and rigidity design of the reflector 9 is achieved, and the stress transmission to the mirror body can be isolated.

[0053] like Figure 1 to Figure 4 As shown, in the embodiment of connecting the reflector 9 with the pitch motor shaft 14 and the goniometric shaft 4, the reflector is connected with the pitch motor shaft 14 and the goniometric shaft 4 via screws and cylindrical pins via the connecting plate 11, and the screws and cylindrical pins are installed from the outside of the pitch seat 1 to ensure assembly processability.

[0054] like Figure 5 As shown, during the ultra-precision turning of the pitch motor shaft 14 and the goniometer shaft 4, the deep groove ball bearing inner ring mating surface 28, deep groove ball bearing mounting end face 29 and connecting surface of the pitch motor shaft, and the angular contact bearing inner ring mating surface 30, angular contact bearing mounting end face 31 and connecting surface of the goniometer shaft are all processed using ultra-precision lathes to ensure the flatness of the connecting surface, the cylindricity and geometric dimension tolerance of the bearing inner ring mating surface, the perpendicularity of the bearing inner ring mating surface and the bearing mounting end face, and the parallelism of the bearing mounting end face and the connecting surface.
