[0028] A coordinate system with the center of the laser detection port as the origin is established, a quartz theoretical axis coordinate is preset, the light spot center coordinate is compared with the preset reference axis coordinate, and the offset of the light spot in the horizontal and vertical directions is obtained.
[0029] The actual light spot edge profile is compared with the light spot profile in the ideal state, the shape difference between the actual light spot edge profile and the ideal ellipse profile is calculated, and the shortest distance of each profile point to the ideal ellipse is calculated.
[0030] The difference characteristics of the profile shape are used to judge whether there are protrusions, depressions or irregular deformations on the inner wall of the quartz tube, and the positions of the distorted regions are marked.
[0031] When the average distortion distance or the maximum distortion distance exceeds the corresponding preset distortion threshold, it is determined that there is spot shape distortion; by continuously setting the area where the shortest distance of a number of contour points exceeds the threshold, the area is marked as a distortion area, and the position coordinates are the center coordinates of the distortion area, and the inner wall abnormal position is marked.
[0032] As preferred, the dynamic monitoring unit tracks the stability of the detection parameters in real time, specifically in the following steps:

[0040] A geometric model is established based on the principle of laser triangulation. After the laser beam is emitted from the detection port, a light spot is formed by reflection on the inner wall of the quartz tube. The center offset of the light spot is directly related to the position of the reflection point on the inner wall. The offset of the light spot is converted into the inner diameter size through geometric relationship:
[0041] Basic geometric relationship. In an ideal situation where refraction effect is ignored, the radius of the quartz tube is determined by the laser emission angle and the distance;
[0042] Light spot offset correction. When there is a horizontal offset in the center of the light spot, the change in the position of the reflection point leads to a radius correction;

[0044] The inner diameter size of the quartz tube is calculated by the vertical distance, the horizontal offset of the light spot center, the laser emission angle, and the refractive index of the quartz material.
[0045] As preferred, the application also includes a position calibration module. The working process of the position calibration module includes:
[0046] The offset in the horizontal and vertical directions of the light spot is obtained, and the total deviation is calculated. A permissible deviation threshold is set. When the total offset is greater than the preset permissible deviation threshold, it is determined that the offset is out of tolerance, and the offset calibration mechanism is triggered. When the total offset is less than or equal to the preset permissible deviation threshold, it is determined that the position is qualified;
[0047] When the offset calibration mechanism is triggered, the adjustment amount is calculated by a proportional adjustment algorithm, and the moving / lifting mechanism is driven to correct the position;
[0048] The proportional adjustment coefficient is set to balance the adjustment speed and stability through factory calibration optimization;
[0049] The horizontal direction adjustment amount and the vertical direction adjustment amount are calculated according to the horizontal direction adjustment amount and the vertical direction adjustment amount respectively;
[0050] The horizontal moving mechanism is controlled according to the horizontal direction adjustment amount to correct the radial relative position of the detection system and the quartz tube, and the lifting mechanism is controlled according to the vertical direction adjustment amount to correct the axial relative position, so that the center of the light spot is closer to the theoretical reference;
[0051] After each adjustment, the following steps are re-executed: the laser analysis unit re-collects the light spot, calculates the new horizontal direction adjustment amount, the vertical direction adjustment amount, and the total offset; the calibration adjustment steps are repeated until the total offset is less than or equal to the preset permissible deviation threshold, the adjustment is stopped, and the final position parameters are recorded; the number of repeated calibrations is recorded. If the number of repeated calibrations is greater than the preset number, it is determined that the mechanical structure has a jamming / positioning abnormality, and a device alarm signal is generated;
[0052] The length of the quartz tube is obtained, an initial detection interval is preset, and then the number of detection points is obtained, wherein the detection point coordinates are uniformly distributed along the axial direction of the quartz tube; when there is a spot shape distortion, the distortion region is subjected to encryption expansion processing, a set length distance is expanded before and after the center coordinates of the distortion region, an encryption region is formed, and the detection interval of the encryption region is adjusted to a second detection interval; wherein the second detection interval is smaller than the initial detection interval.
[0053] Compared with the related art, the laser detection device for inner diameter detection of a quartz tube has the following beneficial effects:
[0054] 1. By the cooperation of the clamping blocks and the extension springs in the clamping positioning mechanism, different diameters of quartz tubes can be adaptively clamped, stable clamping is realized by the spring elastic force, and shaking during detection is avoided. At the same time, the relative position of the quartz tube and the detection mechanism can be accurately adjusted by the coordinated adjustment of the moving mechanism and the lifting mechanism, the problem of unstable positioning of traditional devices for multiple specifications of quartz tubes is solved, and the detection versatility is improved.
[0055] 2. The laser detection system optimizes the spot image through preprocessing, improves the feature extraction accuracy by combining elliptical fitting and iterative optimization, introduces refraction correction and offset compensation in the inner diameter calculation, and real-time calibrates the laser intensity fluctuation and adjusts the frame rate by the dynamic monitoring unit, reduces the interference of environmental and equipment factors on the detection result, and ensures the data accuracy.
[0056] 3. The position calibration module automatically corrects the spot offset through closed-loop control, the detection path is adaptively encrypted according to the distortion region, and manual intervention is reduced; the storage and output module realizes data tracing and intuitive display, and timely alarms in case of abnormality, and improves the detection efficiency and quality control ability.

The advantages of the laser detection system lie in that the modules have clear division of labor and close linkage, which not only improves the detection accuracy through algorithm optimization, but also reduces manual intervention relying on automatic process.
[0082] In the present application, a data acquisition module is also included, which is electrically connected with the laser detector 6 in the detection mechanism, and the working process thereof comprises:
[0083] Image acquisition: through the image acquisition component built-in the laser detector 6, the light spot image formed by the reflection of the laser beam on the inner wall of the quartz tube is captured in real time.

[0086] In this application, the laser analysis unit is used to extract features of the pre-processed image. The specific extraction steps are as follows:
[0087] Perform curve fitting on the pre-processed edge profile of the light spot, use the center of the fitting curve as the center coordinate of the light spot, and iterate and optimize the fitting process to improve the recognition accuracy of the center coordinate;
[0088] The curve fitting specifically adopts elliptic curve fitting, and the elliptic equation is: , and then use the least square method to minimize the sum of the squares of the distances from the contour point to the ellipse, that is, Minimum, and introduce constraints , the constraints are used to avoid multiple solutions, where Represents the coordinates of the i-th point on the edge contour of the spot, which is extracted from the spot image using the Canny edge detection algorithm. n is the number of contour points. A, B, C, D, E, and F represent the coefficients of the preset elliptical curve fitting, which are used to define the geometric shape of the ellipse.
[0089] After fitting is completed, the coordinates of the spot center are calculated using the ellipse parameters. , the formula is: ;
[0090] Then, the iterative optimization fitting process is as follows: after each fitting, the average distance between the actual contour and the fitted ellipse is calculated and recorded as the residual. If the residual is greater than the preset threshold, the contour point with the largest deviation is removed and the fitting is repeated;
[0091] Establish a coordinate system with the center of the laser detection port as the origin, and preset the coordinates of the quartz tube theoretical axis as , the center coordinates of the spot Compare with the preset reference axis coordinates, and obtain the offset of the light spot in the horizontal and vertical directions, which are recorded as 、 , the formula is ;

[0093] By the difference characteristics of the profile shape, it is judged whether there is a protrusion, a depression or an irregular deformation on the inner wall of the quartz tube, and the position of the distortion region is marked:
[0094] When the average distortion distance or the maximum distortion distance exceeds the corresponding preset distortion threshold, it is determined that there is a light spot shape distortion;
[0095] By continuously setting the shortest distance of a number of profile points All exceeding the threshold value, the distortion region is marked, and the position coordinates of the distortion region are the center coordinates of the distortion region , and the abnormal position of the inner wall is marked;

[0104] Spot collection frame rate adjustment: according to the detection position characteristics of the quartz tube and the feedback results of the laser analysis unit, the spot collection frame rate is dynamically adjusted, specifically:
[0105] According to the nominal length L of the quartz tube, the initial collection frame rate is set , and the first collection frame rate and the second collection frame rate are set according to the initial collection frame rate, wherein the initial collection frame rate is less than the first collection frame rate, and the first collection frame rate is less than the second collection frame rate;
[0106] Region identification and frame rate adjustment: when the distance between the detection position and the two ends of the quartz tube is less than or equal to a preset proportion, it is determined that it is the end region prone to deformation, and the collection frame rate is raised to the first collection frame rate;
[0107] Middle region determination: when the detection position is in the middle of the quartz tube, specifically, the distance from both ends is greater than Lx10% and the laser analysis unit feedbacks that the spot shape is not distorted, the initial collection frame rate is used ;
[0108] When the laser analysis unit detects that the spot shape is distorted, the collection frame rate of the region is raised to the second collection frame rate, and the frame rate is maintained within a range of a set length before and after the distorted region;
[0109] When the detection position leaves the end region or the distorted region, it returns to the initial collection frame rate ;
[0110] The dynamic monitoring unit tracks the laser intensity fluctuation in real time and dynamically adjusts the collection frame rate, which not only ensures the stability of the laser signal through multi-parameter weighted evaluation, but also adapts the frame rate according to the characteristics of different regions of the quartz tube, reduces redundant data while ensuring detection accuracy, realizes adaptive optimization of the detection process, and balances data quality and efficiency.

[0113] A geometric model is established based on the principle of laser triangulation. After the laser beam is emitted from the detection port, a light spot is formed by reflection on the inner wall of the quartz tube. The offset of the center of the light spot is directly related to the position of the reflection point on the inner wall. The offset of the light spot is converted into the inner diameter size through geometric relationship. Specifically,
[0114] Basic geometric relationship. In the ideal case where the refraction effect is ignored, the radius R of the quartz tube is determined by the laser emission angle and the distance U, which satisfies ;

The specific extraction steps are as follows: The pre-processed spot edge contour is subjected to curve fitting, and the center of the fitting curve is used as the coordinate of the spot center. The fitting process is optimized iteratively. The iterative optimization process is as follows: after each fitting, the average distance between the actual contour and the fitted ellipse is calculated and recorded as the residual. If the residual is greater than the preset threshold, the contour point with the largest deviation is removed and the fitting is performed again. Establish a coordinate system with the center of the laser detection port as the origin, preset the theoretical axis coordinates of the quartz tube, compare the center coordinates of the light spot with the preset reference axis coordinates, and obtain the horizontal and vertical offsets of the light spot; Compare the actual spot edge contour with the ideal spot contour, calculate the morphological difference between the actual spot edge contour and the ideal ellipse contour, and calculate the shortest distance from each contour point to the ideal ellipse; the morphological difference includes the average distortion distance and the maximum distortion distance; By looking at the difference in contour morphology, determine whether there are bulges, depressions, or irregular deformations on the inner wall of the quartz tube, and mark the location of the distorted area: When the average distortion distance or the maximum distortion distance exceeds the corresponding preset distortion threshold, it is determined that there is spot shape distortion; by continuously setting a number of contour points whose shortest distance exceeds the threshold, the area is marked as the distortion area, and its position coordinates are the center coordinates of the distortion area, marking the abnormal position of the inner wall.

The changing trend of the intensity signal in the intensity sequence is analyzed in real time, and its fluctuation parameters are calculated, including the intensity mean, intensity standard deviation, and relative fluctuation coefficient. A fluctuation evaluation value is obtained by weighting all parameters in the fluctuation parameter with their preset weights. When the fluctuation evaluation value is greater than the preset stability range threshold, the laser intensity fluctuation is determined to be abnormal, triggering the automatic calibration mechanism of the laser source. The automatic calibration mechanism is used to restore the intensity to a stable state by adjusting the driving current of the laser emitter. Adjustment of the light spot acquisition frame rate: the initial acquisition frame rate is set according to the nominal length of the quartz tube, and the first acquisition frame rate and the second acquisition frame rate are set according to the initial acquisition frame rate, wherein the initial acquisition frame rate is smaller than the first acquisition frame rate and smaller than the second acquisition frame rate; Region identification and frame rate adjustment: when the distance between the detection position and the two ends of the quartz tube is less than or equal to the preset ratio, it is determined to be an easily deformable end region, and the acquisition frame rate is increased to the first acquisition frame rate; Central area judgment: When the detection position is in the middle of the quartz tube and the laser analysis unit feedback spot shape is not distorted, the initial acquisition frame rate is used; When the laser analysis unit detects that the spot shape is distorted, the acquisition frame rate of the area is increased to the second acquisition frame rate, and the frame rate is maintained within the range of the set lengths before and after the distorted area; when the detection position leaves the end area or the distorted area, it is restored to the initial acquisition frame rate.

After the laser beam is emitted from the detection port, it is reflected by the inner wall of the quartz tube to form a light spot. The center offset of the light spot is directly related to the position of the reflection point on the inner wall. The light spot offset is converted into the inner diameter size through the geometric relationship: In the ideal case of ignoring the refraction effect, the radius of the quartz tube is determined by the laser emission angle and distance. Spot offset correction: when there is a horizontal offset in the center of the spot, the change in the position of the reflection point leads to radius correction; Refraction effect correction: when the laser passes through the interface between the quartz tube and the air, refraction occurs. According to the law of refraction, the actual radial size needs to be corrected by the refractive index. The inner diameter of the quartz tube is calculated based on the vertical distance, the horizontal offset of the center of the light spot, the laser emission angle, and the refractive index of the quartz material.
