[0003] In the prior art, a Chinese patent application numbered CN202022933017.6 discloses a reverse telephoto lens, a reverse telephoto system, and a scanning device. Along the optical axis from the object side to the image side, the reverse telephoto lens includes a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, and a fifth lens in sequence; the reverse telephoto ratio of the reverse telephoto lens has a value range of [7.40, 7.80]. The reverse telephoto lens of the embodiment of the present application has a large reverse telephoto ratio and has a strong converging effect on the light beam passing through the reverse telephoto lens. When used with a laser, it can significantly increase the optical power density of the laser, so that the laser can increase the illumination light under a limited maximum power.

[0004] In the above technical solution, the focal length is 20-40mm, the working distance is 155-298mm, and the reflection-to-reflection ratio is 7.4-7.8.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0042] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, a cylindrical line spot lens with a small focal depth and a long working distance includes a cylindrical line spot lens body 500, which includes a first lens 1, a second lens 2, a third lens 3, a fourth lens 4, and a fifth lens 5. The first lens 1, the second lens 2, the third lens 3, the fourth lens 4, and the fifth lens 5 are all arranged in a cylindrical lens structure and arranged along the incident direction of light.

[0051] like Figure 6-Figure 9As shown, a reflective lens 400 is provided on the upper side of the cylindrical line spot lens body 500. The reflective lens 400 includes a first reflective lens 401 and a second reflective lens 402. The reflection angle of the first reflective lens 401 and the second reflective lens 402 is 45 degrees. A collimating lens 100 and an infinite imaging lens 300 are provided on the upper side of the reflective lens 400. A CCD camera 200 is provided on the upper side of the infinite imaging lens 300. An adjustable tilting platform 600 is provided on the lower side of the cylindrical line spot lens body 500. The adjustable tilting platform 600 includes an upper plate 601 and the lower plate 602, the upper plate 601 and the lower plate 602 are arranged in a parallel and symmetrical structure, and a tilt adjustment screw 1 603 and a tilt adjustment screw 2 604 are respectively provided at the corners between the upper plate 601 and the lower plate 602. The tilt adjustment screw 1 603 and the tilt adjustment screw 2 604 are arranged in a diagonal structure. A plurality of cylindrical pins 606 are provided on the upper side of the upper plate 601 and the lower side of the lower plate 602, and a tension spring 605 is provided between the two cylindrical pins 606. The number of cylindrical pins 606 is 12, and the number of tension springs 605 is 6.

[0052] In this embodiment, the uniformity of the line spot beam can be adjusted, mainly by adjusting the deflection of the fifth lens in the x or y direction, and by placing a beam quality analyzer at the focus of the image plane to observe the energy distribution of the line spot to make the energy distribution uniform. The cylindrical line spot lens has a simple structure and can be integrated into the cutting head for use. It is also equipped with coaxial imaging to improve polishing accuracy.

[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, the object side and image side surfaces of the first lens 1 , the second lens 2 , the third lens 3 , the fourth lens 4 and the fifth lens 5 have curvature only in the X or Y direction.

[0054] like Figure 3 As shown, the laser generates a line spot on the focal plane after passing through the cylindrical line spot lens with a small focal depth and a long working distance. The shape of the cylindrical line spot lens with a small focal depth and a long working distance can be circular or square. In this case, the size of the incident light is 9 mm, and the focused spot in the Y direction is 0.009 mm, that is, the field lens can finally form a line spot of 9 mm × 0.009 mm on the working surface.

[0055] like Figure 5 As shown, the horizontal axis is the defocus distance, and the vertical axis is the FFT modulation transfer function data. In this case, the wavelength is 532nm. It can be seen from the figure that the MTF value is less than 0.15 in the defocus range of ±0.005mm, indicating that its depth of focus range is less than ±0.005mm.

[0056] It should be noted that the focal depth range of the cylindrical line spot lens with small focal depth and long working distance is less than ±0.005mm to achieve high-precision machining accuracy.

[0057] Because the working distance is greater than 15mm, in order to adapt to complex environments and high-precision laser processing of objects, the cylindrical line spot lens with small focal depth and long working distance has a working distance greater than 15mm and less than 20mm, thereby achieving the characteristics of a larger working distance, which can be installed with coaxial blowing and extremely small focal depth.

[0058] The above description is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field, within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, who makes equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
