Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of precision optical measurement, and in particular to a laser collimation measurement system and method for digitally compensating for light drift angle. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, in fields such as aerospace, rail transportation, and energy equipment, there is a need to process large workpieces exceeding 2 meters in size, such as aircraft frames, high-speed train heads, and wind turbine blade molds. The processing of these workpieces can only be achieved using gantry milling machines. Therefore, improving the machining accuracy of gantry milling machines is of paramount importance.
[0003] Lasers possess excellent linearity. In industry, lasers are often used as a benchmark for measuring parameters such as straightness / coaxiality, deflection, or pitch angle of large workpieces. However, strictly speaking, lasers are not perfectly linear; they exhibit a certain degree of drift. This drift can be categorized into three types based on the factors causing it: first, laser beam drift caused by the laser itself; second, mechanical displacement of the adjustment mechanism fixing the laser emitter, resulting in slow angular drift; and third, beam bending or jitter caused by uneven air refractive index or air disturbance. These three types of drift are unavoidable in practice, but because their degree is relatively slight, they are generally ignored in industrial measurements.
[0004] Furthermore, laser drift can be categorized into two types: angular drift and parallel drift. Parallel drift can be largely eliminated using a laser with a fiber optic output, and its impact on measurement error is relatively small in long-distance measurements. Angular drift, however, increases significantly with the measurement distance, leading to greater errors in straightness measurements. Therefore, in precision measurements, especially long-distance precision measurements, it is crucial to minimize the influence of angular laser drift on the measurement results.
[0005] Existing technologies, such as patent ZL 200410006321.9, use a cornerstone prism to reflect light back to a fixed end. While this can measure the drift angle, the optical path is twice the measurement distance. Over long distances, air disturbances exacerbate the problem, leading to decreased measurement and compensation accuracy. Another type of hardware compensation method (such as using a PZT-driven mirror) can dynamically correct the drift, but the system is complex, costly, and the compensation and measurement optical paths are not shared, resulting in poor compensation performance. Furthermore, some methods can only compensate for drift caused by the laser itself and cannot effectively address drift caused by air disturbances. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a measurement system and method that is simple in structure, low in cost, and can effectively compensate for light drift angles caused by various factors (especially air disturbances) over long distances. Summary of the Invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0025] In the XYZ spatial coordinate system of this invention, when an object moves along any one of the X, Y, and Z directions, there is a "six-degree-of-freedom geometric error". This "six-degree-of-freedom geometric error" includes three linear errors related to translation along the X, Y, and Z directions. , , And the three angular errors of rotation around the X, Y, and Z coordinate axes. , , .

[0027] After converting the incident light rays onto the first photodetector 303 back to the reference coordinate system along with the first photodetector 303, the first photodetector 303 is located in the YOZ plane, with its two directions being the Y-axis and Z-axis, respectively, and the positive directions of the Y-axis and Z-axis being positive. Similarly, the second photodetector 402 and the third photodetector 504 are placed, and their Y-axis and Z-axis directions are defined.

Then, when the incident light projects onto the Y-axis and points in the positive direction of the Z-axis, the angle is considered positive. Similarly, the sign of the angle measured by the second photodetector 402 and the third photodetector 504 is defined.
[0029] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0030] Example 1 Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a laser collimation measurement system for digitally compensating for light drift angle according to an embodiment of this application. See also... Figure 1 The system includes: a laser output unit I, a collimating lens 201, a light drift angle measurement unit III, a straightness measurement unit IV, a two-dimensional angle measurement unit V, and a signal processing unit; Among them, the laser output unit I is used to generate and output laser; the laser output unit I specifically includes: laser 101 and fiber coupler 102, and the fiber coupler 102 is connected to the collimating lens 201 through an optical fiber.
[0031] The collimating lens 201 is mounted on the fixed measuring head II and is used to collimate the laser output by the laser output unit I into the measurement reference light L1.
[0032] The light drift angle measurement unit III, mounted on the movable measuring head II', includes a light retroreflector 301, a first lens 302, and a first photodetector 303 arranged sequentially along the light propagation direction. The incident light from the light retroreflector 301 is parallel to the reflected light L2, and the incident light from the light retroreflector 301 is the measurement reference light L1. The first photodetector 303 is located on the focal plane of the first lens 302 and is used to measure the light drift angle. The first lens 302 and the first photodetector 303 are located on the reflected light L2, with the first photodetector 303 positioned on the focal plane of the first lens 302, i.e., they are spaced apart. The first photodetector 303 is connected to the signal processing unit to directly measure the magnitude of the light drift angle caused by various factors.
[0033] The straightness measurement unit IV includes a first beam splitter 401 and a second photodetector 402. The first beam splitter 401 is disposed in the optical path of the retroreflected light L2 and is used to split the retroreflected light L2 into two beams. One beam is focused by the first lens 302 and received by the first photodetector 303, and the other beam is received by the second photodetector 402, for measuring the original straightness signal. Figure 1 The diagram shows the transmitted portion being received by the first photodetector 303, and the reflected portion L3 being received by the second photodetector 402. In practice, the first lens 302 and the first photodetector 303 can also be positioned on the reflected light L3, and the second photodetector 402 on the transmitted light, achieving the same effect. The second photodetector 402 is connected to the signal processing unit, which, combined with the measurement signal from the first photodetector 303, calculates the two-dimensional straightness error.
[0034] The two-dimensional angle measurement unit V includes a second beam splitter 501, a second lens 503, and a third photodetector 504 disposed on the fixed measuring head II, and a third beam splitter 502 disposed on the movable measuring head II'. The second beam splitter 501 is disposed in the optical path of the measurement reference light L1, and the third beam splitter 502 is disposed in front of the light retroreflector 301. The light reflected by the third beam splitter 502 is split by the second beam splitter 501, and one beam of light is focused by the second lens 503 onto the third photodetector 504 located on its focal plane, for measuring the original two-dimensional angle signal, namely the two-dimensional angle error and the pitch and yaw angle errors.
[0035] The signal processing unit is electrically connected to the first photodetector 303, the second photodetector 402 and the third photodetector 504 respectively, and is used to receive and process the signals from each photodetector.
[0036] The first photodetector 303, the second photodetector 402 and the third photodetector 504 mentioned above are any one of a quadrant detector (QD), a position-sensitive detector (PSD), a charge-coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS).
[0037] The above measurement system, except for the laser output unit I, is mechanically connected to form two parts: a fixed measuring head II and a movable measuring head II'.
[0038] To obtain a stable collimated beam within the measurement range, this embodiment uses a 633nm helium-neon laser as the laser source. A focusing lens or microscope objective is used as the fiber coupler 102, paired with an optical fiber with a mode field diameter of 4.0~4.5μm. Through a collimating lens 201 with a focal length of 15~20mm, a collimated beam with a diameter of 3.02~3.58mm, a full divergence angle of 0.015~0.013°, and a beam waist position of 5.5~8m can be obtained. Within the range of 0-20 meters, the spot diameter varies from 3mm to 7.1mm, meeting the measurement requirements.
[0039] By selecting photodetectors with a resolution of 0.5~1μm as the first photodetector 303 and the third photodetector 504, and lenses with a focal length of 200~500mm as the first lens 302 and the second lens 503, a resolution of about 0.2"~1" for light drift angle and two-dimensional angle measurement can be achieved.
[0040] A lens group consisting of a convex lens with a focal length of 150-175mm and a concave lens with a focal length of -20 to -30mm is selected to replace the single first lens 302 and second lens 503. When the distance from the positive lens to the focal plane of the combined lens is between 150mm and 300mm, the combined focal length is about 200mm to 1000mm. Increasing the focal length improves the measurement resolution, while shortening the distance from the positive lens to the first photodetector 303 and the third photodetector 504, thereby reducing the size of the measuring heads II and II', increasing portability, and reducing the installation difficulty.
[0041] Example 2 Another implementation of the active measuring head II' is, for example Figure 2 As shown, compared to Figure 1 In this embodiment 2, the optical path removes the light retroreflector 301 and consists only of the first lens 302 and the first photodetector 303 to form the light drift angle measurement unit III'. Figure 1 The advantage of the optical path is that the light L2 is reflected back by the light returner 301, and after adding a beam splitter to split a beam of light back to the fixed measuring head II, the interferometric length measurement module can be integrated into the fixed measuring head II to achieve 5-degree-of-freedom measurement. Figure 2 The advantage of the optical path is that the movable measuring head II' reduces one component, thus reducing cost and weight, and simplifying installation.
[0042] Example 3 Because the beam splitter 401 only serves to split the light, the transmitted and reflected light it separates has no substantial difference in terms of light drift and two-dimensional straightness measurement. This can be utilized... Figure 1 , Figure 2 In this implementation method, transmitted light is used to measure light drift, and reflected light is used to measure two-dimensional straightness. Alternatively, it can utilize... Figure 3 , Figure 4 In this implementation method, transmitted light is used to measure two-dimensional straightness, and reflected light is used to measure light drift.
[0043] Example 4 This application provides a laser collimation measurement method for digitally compensating for light drift angle. This method is applied to the laser collimation measurement system for digitally compensating for light drift angle in Example 1. The method includes: Step 101: The laser output unit I generates laser light, which is collimated by the collimating lens 201 to form a measurement reference light L1 that propagates along the X-axis. Step 102: The measurement reference light L1, after passing through the second beam splitter 501 and the third beam splitter 502, is reflected back by the light retroreflector 301 to form the reflected light L2; Step 103: The reflected light L2 is split into two beams by the first beam splitter 401. One beam is focused onto the first photodetector 303 by the first lens 302, and the other beam is directly incident onto the second photodetector 402. Step 104: At the same time, the light reflected by the third beam splitter 502 is split by the second beam splitter 501, and one of the beams is focused onto the third photodetector 504 by the second lens 503. Step 105: The signal processing unit acquires the change in the position of the light spot on the first photodetector 303, the second photodetector 402 and the third photodetector 504 respectively; Step 106: The signal processing unit calculates the true pitch angle of the object under test based on the change in the position of the light spots of the first photodetector 303 and the third photodetector 504 using a common optical path model. and true sway angle and the ray drift angle around the Y-axis and the ray drift angle around the Z-axis .
