[0042] Next, reference is made to Figures 1 - 4 describe a lens self-cleaning device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0043] As Figures 1 - 4 shown, a lens self-cleaning device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention is for a lens assembly 100 and includes: a driving assembly 1 and a water spraying member 2.

[0044] Specifically, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3, the lens assembly 100 includes a lens barrel 20 and a lens 30. The lens barrel 20 has a mounting hole 201. The two ends of the lens barrel 20 in the axial direction are a first end 202 and a second end 203 respectively. The lens 30 is disposed in the mounting hole 201 and at the first end 202. The lens self-cleaning device 10 includes: a driving assembly 1 disposed on the lens barrel 20 for driving the lens 30 to rotate, and the rotation axis of the lens 30 is parallel or coincident with the axis of the lens barrel 20; a water spraying member 2 disposed on the lens barrel 20 for spraying water onto the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203. Of course, the water spraying member 2 can also spray a cleaning agent for washing grease and the like on the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203. Among them, it should be noted that the nozzle of the water spraying member 2 has a control valve, which can be used to control the opening and closing degree of the nozzle, so as to control the water spraying speed and flow rate.

[0045] It can be understood that the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203 is in contact with the external environment and is prone to dust accumulation. While the side of the lens 30 facing the second end 203 is the internal closed space of the lens barrel 20, and the probability of dust accumulation is low. Therefore, the lens self-cleaning device 10 is used to clean the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203. Among them, the water spraying member 2 is used to spray water onto the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203 to moisten the dust, so that the dust and water can be mixed together, reducing the secondary dust generation during dry cleaning and improving the cleaning efficiency. By driving the lens 30 to rotate through the driving assembly 1, a centrifugal force is generated to throw the moistened dust and water mixture away from the surface of the lens 30, reducing the residue. Thus, by combining liquid wetting and centrifugal force throwing, while ensuring the cleaning efficiency, a non-contact cleaning of the lens 30 throughout the process is achieved, reducing the wear of the lens 30 caused by mechanical wiping and improving the service life of the lens 30.

[0046] Furthermore, a hydrophobic layer is provided on the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203, so as to facilitate better drainage of water, avoid the residue of water after cleaning, and improve the cleaning efficiency and effect.

[0047] In addition, since the lens self-cleaning device 10 of the present invention is disposed on the lens assembly 100, the lens 30 can be cleaned at any time and place, improving the convenience of cleaning.

[0048] According to the lens self-cleaning device 10 of the embodiment of the present invention, the driving assembly 1 is disposed on the lens barrel 20 for driving the lens 30 to rotate, and the rotation axis of the lens 30 is parallel or coincident with the axis of the lens barrel 20; the water spraying member 2 is disposed on the lens barrel 20 for spraying water onto the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203. By combining liquid wetting of dust and centrifugal force throwing of the liquid and dust mixture, the secondary dust generation during dry cleaning is avoided. While ensuring the cleaning efficiency, a non-contact cleaning of the lens 30 throughout the process is achieved, reducing the wear of the lens 30 caused by mechanical wiping and improving the service life of the lens 30.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the driving assembly 1 includes: a first driving member 11 and a second driving member 12. The first driving member 11 is disposed in the mounting hole 201 and is connected to the lens 30. The second driving member 12 is disposed in the mounting hole 201 and is used to drive the first driving member 11 to rotate.

[0050] It can be understood that the second driving member 12 drives the first driving member 11 to rotate, and the first driving member 11 is connected to the lens 30, thereby driving the lens 30 to rotate. The rotation axis of the first driving member 11 coincides with the rotation axis of the lens 30, thus realizing the rotation of the lens 30.

[0051] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the second driving member 12 is disposed on the inner peripheral wall of the mounting hole 201. One of the first driving member 11 and the second driving member 12 is a coil, and the other is a magnet. For example, in the present invention, the first driving member 11 is a magnet and the second driving member 12 is a coil. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and it may also be that the first driving member 11 is a coil and the second driving member 12 is a magnet.

[0052] In the present invention, the first driving member 11 is a magnet and the second driving member 12 is a coil. The lens barrel 20 has structures such as a circuit board and circuits (not shown) for energizing the coil, and by controlling the magnitude and direction of the current in the coil, the rotation speed and rotation direction of the first driving member 11 can be controlled.

[0053] It can be understood that through the above setting method, electromagnetic drive is achieved between the first driving member 11 and the second driving member 12. Compared with the contact mechanical transmission, the electromagnetic drive has small friction, the lens 30 rotates more smoothly, and the noise is small.

[0054] In some embodiments of the present invention, the first driving member 11 and the second driving member 12 are meshing gears (not shown). The first driving member 11 is sleeved outside the lens 30. The driving assembly 1 further includes: a driving motor. The driving motor is disposed in the mounting hole 201, and the output shaft of the driving motor is in transmission connection with the second driving member 12. Thus, mechanical transmission is achieved between the first driving member 11 and the second driving member 12, the structure is reliable, the cost is low, and torque amplification can be achieved to drive a larger load.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the driving assembly 1 further includes: a base 13. The base 13 surrounds the lens 30 and is connected to the lens 30. The first driving member 11 is disposed on the outer peripheral wall of the base 13.

[0056] Among them, an annular groove is provided on the inner peripheral wall of the base 13, and a part of the lens 30 is disposed in the annular groove, thereby realizing the connection between the lens 30 and the base 13. The first driving member 11 and the lens 30 are indirectly connected through the base 13. The setting of the base 13 can fix the first driving member 11 and the lens 30, avoiding the problem of difficult connection design caused by directly connecting the first driving member 11 and the lens 30.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a dynamic sealing structure 14 is provided between the outer peripheral wall of the base 13 and the inner peripheral wall of the mounting hole 201. Among them, the dynamic sealing structure 14 is disposed on a side of the lens 30 away from the second end 203. Thus, on the one hand, it can prevent water on the lens 30 from flowing into the side of the lens 30 facing the second end 203 along the gap between the base 13 and the mounting hole 201, improving the sealing performance. On the other hand, it enables the base 13 to rotate freely in the mounting hole 201, thereby realizing the rotation of the lens 30 and achieving centrifugal dust removal of the lens 30.

[0058] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of first annular protrusions 141 spaced apart along the axial direction of the lens barrel 20 are provided on the outer peripheral wall of the base 13, and a plurality of second annular protrusions 142 are provided on the inner peripheral wall of the mounting hole 201. The plurality of first annular protrusions 141 and the plurality of second annular protrusions 142 are arranged in a staggered manner along the axis of the lens barrel 20, and the surfaces of the first annular protrusions 141 and the second annular protrusions 142 are spaced apart. The plurality of first annular protrusions 141 and the plurality of second annular protrusions 142 form a dynamic sealing structure 14.

[0059] It can be understood that the plurality of first annular protrusions 141 and the plurality of second annular protrusions 142 are staggered with each other and the surfaces are spaced apart. For example, in the axial direction of the lens barrel 20, there is a second annular protrusion 142 between any two adjacent first annular protrusions 141, so as to realize the staggered arrangement of the plurality of first annular protrusions 141 and the plurality of second annular protrusions 142 along the axis of the lens barrel 20. Thus, a labyrinth sealing structure is formed between the plurality of first annular protrusions 141 and the plurality of second annular protrusions 142, preventing the entry of water and dust and improving the sealing performance.

[0060] On the other hand, the surfaces of the first annular protrusions 141 and the second annular protrusions 142 are spaced apart, so as to prevent the base 13 from contacting the hole wall of the mounting hole 201 when rotating, realizing that the base 13 can rotate freely in the mounting hole 201.

[0061] In some embodiments of the present invention, the dynamic sealing structure 14 is a dynamic sealing ring (not shown). The dynamic sealing ring has a simple structure, less modification to the base 13 and the lens barrel 20, and low cost.

[0062] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 3 shown, a bearing 15 is provided between the base 13 and the wall of the mounting hole 201. Thus, the rotation of the base 13 is made more stable and reliable, and accordingly, the rotation of the lens 30 is made more stable and reliable.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, the water spraying member 2 is provided on the end face of the first end 202 of the lens barrel 20. Thus, it is convenient to disassemble and repair the water spraying member 2.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, a plurality of water spraying members 2 are arranged in the circumferential direction of the mounting hole 201. Thus, the water spraying efficiency is improved, and accordingly, the cleaning efficiency of the lens 30 is improved. For example, in the Figure 1 example shown, there are 4 water spraying members 2, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the number of water spraying members 2 can also be other numbers, such as 2, 3, 5, or 6, etc.

[0065] In some embodiments of the present invention, in the direction radially inward along the mounting hole 201, the nozzles of the water spraying member 2 are inclined from the first end 202 to the second end 203. Thus, the water sprayed by the water spraying member 2 can better spray onto the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203, avoiding waste of water.

[0066] In some embodiments of the present invention, the lens self-cleaning device 10 further includes: a sensor (not shown), the sensor is provided on the lens barrel 20 and is used to detect the light transmittance of the lens 30 and / or the environmental dust concentration. It should be noted that the sensor can be an optical pollution and / or environmental dust concentration sensor.

[0067] It can be understood that the lens self-cleaning device 10 further includes: a controller, the controller can be an STM32 (STMicroelectronics, microcontroller), the controller is communicatively connected to the sensor, the water spraying member 2 (the control valve on the water spraying member 2), and the driving assembly 1, and the controller can control the spraying speed and flow rate of the water spraying member 2, and control the rotation speed of the driving assembly 1 to drive the lens 30. When the sensor detects that the indicators of the light transmittance of the lens 30 and / or the environmental dust concentration are higher than the preset values, the controller controls the water spraying member 2 to spray water, and at the same time controls the driving assembly 1 to drive the lens 30 to rotate, so as to clean the lens 30.

[0068] Thus, through the combined action of the sensor and the controller, the self-cleaning function of the lens 30 can be realized, reducing the investment in manual detection.

[0069] Next, reference is made to Figures 1 - 4 describe the lens assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0070] As shown Figures 1 - 4 in the figure, the lens assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a lens barrel 20, a lens 30, and the above-mentioned lens self-cleaning device 10.

[0071] Specifically, referring to Figures 1 - 4 , the lens barrel 20 has a mounting hole 201; the lens 30 is disposed in the mounting hole 201 and at the first end 202; the driving assembly 1 is disposed in the mounting hole 201 for driving the lens 30 to rotate, and the rotation axis of the lens 30 is parallel or coincident with the axis of the lens barrel 20; the water spraying member 2 is disposed on the lens barrel 20 for spraying water onto the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203.

[0072] It can be understood that the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203 contacts the external environment and is prone to dust accumulation, while the side of the lens 30 facing the second end 203 is the internal closed space of the lens barrel 20, with a low probability of dust accumulation. Therefore, the lens self-cleaning device 10 is used to clean the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203. Among them, the water spraying member 2 is used to spray water onto the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203 to wet the dust, so that the dust and water can be mixed together, reducing the secondary dust generation during dry cleaning and improving the cleaning efficiency. By driving the lens 30 to rotate through the driving assembly 1, centrifugal force is generated to throw the wetted dust and water mixture away from the surface of the lens 30, reducing the residue. Thus, by combining liquid wetting and centrifugal force throwing, while ensuring the cleaning efficiency, non-contact cleaning of the lens 30 throughout the process is achieved, reducing the wear of the lens 30 caused by mechanical wiping and increasing the service life of the lens 30.

[0073] For the lens assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention, by providing the above-mentioned lens self-cleaning device 10, the driving assembly 1 is disposed in the lens barrel 20 for driving the lens 30 to rotate, and the rotation axis of the lens 30 is parallel or coincident with the axis of the lens barrel 20; the water spraying member 2 is disposed on the lens barrel 20 for spraying water onto the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203, combining liquid wetting of dust and centrifugal force throwing of the liquid and dust mixture, avoiding secondary dust generation during dry cleaning, achieving non-contact cleaning of the lens 30 throughout the process while ensuring the cleaning efficiency, reducing the wear of the lens 30 caused by mechanical wiping, and increasing the service life of the lens 30.

[0074] In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown Figure 1 and Figure 2 in the figure, the lens barrel 20 has a drainage channel 204, the inlet of the drainage channel 204 is disposed on the hole wall of the mounting hole 201 and on the side of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203, and the outlet of the drainage channel 204 is disposed on the outer surface of the lens barrel 20 for discharging the water on the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203.

[0075] It can be understood that, thereby, the sewage after cleaning can be discharged directionally along the drainage channel 204, avoiding the sewage from splashing onto the outer surface of the lens barrel 20 and keeping the outer surface of the lens barrel 20 clean.

[0076] Furthermore, the outlet of the drainage channel 204 can be connected to a water pipe, and one end of the water pipe is connected to a sewage tank, so that the sewage can be collected and the pollution of the external environment by the sewage can be avoided.

[0077] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the drainage channel 204 is formed as a groove on the end face of the first end 202 of the lens barrel 20. Thus, the processing can be directly carried out on the end face of the first end 202 of the lens barrel 20, making the formation of the drainage channel 204 simpler and reducing the processing difficulty.

[0078] In some embodiments of the present invention, the drainage channel 204 is formed as a communication hole, and the communication hole is arranged inside the lens barrel 20 (not shown). Thus, the drainage channel 204 is more closed, reducing the splashing of liquid on the outer surface of the lens barrel 20.

[0079] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a one-way valve 205 is provided in the drainage channel 204 to block the flow of water from the outlet of the drainage channel 204 to the inlet of the drainage channel 204. Thus, the backflow of sewage to the lens 30 can be avoided, thereby further polluting the lens 30 and further ensuring the cleaning effect.

[0080] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in the direction radially outward of the mounting hole 201, the drainage channel 204 is inclined toward the rotation direction of the lens 30. Thus, the design of the drainage channel 204 can conform to the rotation direction of the lens 30, increasing the flow rate of the sewage and facilitating the better discharge of the sewage.

[0081] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the projection of the drainage channel 204 on the end face of the first end 202 of the lens barrel 20 is arc-shaped, straight-line-shaped or polyline-shaped. For example, in the present invention, the projection of the drainage channel 204 on the end face of the first end 202 of the lens barrel 20 is arc-shaped, so as to reduce the resistance of liquid flow and enable the liquid to be discharged better. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the projection shape of the drainage channel 204 on the end face of the first end 202 of the lens barrel 20 can be adaptively changed according to the actual situation, such as straight-line-shaped or polyline-shaped, etc.

[0082] The following describes a coal quality rapid detection device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0083] The coal quality rapid detection device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the above-mentioned lens assembly 100.

[0084] It can be understood that the coal quality rapid detection device detects the coal quality through methods such as spectral analysis, and the lens assembly 100 has a light source. Thus, the lens assembly 100 can play roles such as protecting the light source and maintaining the light cup.

[0085] The coal quality rapid detection device according to an embodiment of the present invention, by arranging the above-mentioned lens assembly 100 and the above-mentioned lens self-cleaning device 10, the driving assembly 1 is arranged on the lens barrel 20 and is used to drive the lens 30 to rotate. The rotation axis of the lens 30 is parallel or coincident with the axis of the lens barrel 20; the water spraying member 2 is arranged on the lens barrel 20 and is used to spray water on the surface of the lens 30 facing away from the second end 203. By combining the wetting of dust by the liquid and the centrifugal force to throw off the mixture of the liquid and dust, the secondary dust generation of dry cleaning is avoided. While ensuring the cleaning efficiency, non-contact cleaning of the lens 30 throughout the process is achieved, reducing the wear of the lens 30 caused by mechanical wiping and improving the service life of the lens 30.
