[0002] With the development of optical technology, the application of optical components is becoming more and more extensive, so more stringent requirements are put forward for the quality inspection of optical components. When using a strong light reflector for surface measurement, strong light may have a significant impact on the surface measurement results. For example, the direct reflection of strong light may interfere with the precise positioning of the measuring laser, resulting in increased measurement errors. This interference may affect the accuracy and repeatability of surface data. For some sensitive materials or surfaces, strong light may cause overexposure of the surface, thereby changing its physical or chemical properties. This change may be misunderstood as a change in surface shape. Strong light exposure may also cause excessive burden on equipment such as optical sensors or cameras, and long-term exposure may cause equipment performance degradation or damage.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model discloses a laser interferometer with the function of reducing the strong light of the reflector.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the laser interferometer with the function of reducing the strong light of the reflector includes an interferometer body, a box 2 and a light reduction component.

[0035] The interferometer body has an interferometer lens 1, and the interferometer body can complete the relevant measurement functions of the laser interferometer. The interferometer lens 1 is arranged on one side of the interferometer body, for example, Figure 1 The middle interferometer lens 1 is located on the right side of the interferometer body.

[0036] The box 2 is detachably mounted on the side of the interferometer body where the interferometer lens 1 is disposed. In this embodiment, the box 2 is mounted on the interferometer body in a detachable structure, so that the box 2 can be easily disassembled and assembled. The box 2 is used to protect the components in the box 2. The box 2 has two open sides, and one of the open sides of the box 2 is connected to the side of the interferometer body where the interferometer lens 1 is disposed.

[0037] In some implementations of this embodiment, the box 2 is connected to the interferometer body via a buckle 3. For example, Figure 1 The right side of the middle interferometer body and the left side of the box 2 are connected by two upper and lower buckles 3, which increases the firmness of the connection.

[0038] The box 2 and the interferometer body may also be connected by a latch connection, a key connection or the like.

[0039] The dimming component is rotatably disposed in the housing 2, wherein when the dimming component is rotated to the first position, the dimming component attenuates the laser entering the interferometer lens 1, and when the dimming component is rotated to the second position, the dimming component does not attenuate the laser entering the interferometer lens 1. In this embodiment, the dimming function is turned on and off by rotating the dimming component, for example, when the dimming function needs to be turned on, the dimming component is rotated to the first position, and when the dimming function needs to be turned off, the dimming component is rotated to the second position.

[0040] In some implementations of the present embodiment, the dimming component includes a rotating shaft 4 and a dimming structure. The rotating shaft 4 is rotatably disposed in the box body 2, and the dimming structure is disposed on the outer side of the rotating shaft 4. When the rotating shaft 4 rotates, the dimming structure is driven to rotate, thereby realizing the switching of the dimming component between the first position and the second position.

[0041] In some implementations of this embodiment, the light reduction structure includes a frame 5 and a filter 6, one side of the frame 5 is connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft 4, and the filter 6 is embedded in the frame 5. The frame 5 is used to fix the filter 6 and protect the filter 6; the frame 5 is connected to the outer side to facilitate the rotation of the filter 6 and adjust the position of the filter 6. The filter 6 is used to reduce strong light, such as strong light from a high reflector; these implementations use a high-precision filter 6 to ensure that the accuracy of the filter 6 does not affect the accuracy of the surface shape test when the strong light is reduced.

[0042] For example, Figure 1 The middle frame 5 is a rectangular frame, and the filter 6 is embedded in the frame 5 to form a light reduction structure. The light reduction structure is arranged on the outer surface of the shaft 4. When the shaft 4 rotates, the frame 5 is driven to rotate together, thereby realizing the rotation of the light reduction component.

[0043] In some implementations of this embodiment, the dimming assembly further includes a handle 7, one end of which is connected to the rotating shaft 4, and the other end of which is located outside the box 2. In these implementations, by providing the handle 7, the dimming assembly can be conveniently rotated.

[0044] In some implementations of this embodiment, the handle 7 is a Z-shaped structure, which is convenient for rotation operation. The handle 7 can also be L-shaped, T-shaped or other shaped structures.

[0045] In some implementations of this embodiment, the dimming component includes a filter 6, and when the dimming component rotates to the first position, the plane where the filter 6 is located is parallel to the plane where the interferometer lens 1 is located, and when the dimming component rotates to the second position, the plane where the filter 6 is located is perpendicular to the plane where the interferometer lens 1 is located, and the orthographic projection of the filter 6 on the plane where the interferometer lens 1 is located does not overlap with the interferometer lens 1. For example, Figure 1 When the dimming component rotates to the first position, the filter 6 is parallel to the interferometer lens 1, and the laser emitted by the interferometer body passes through the interferometer lens 1 and the filter 6 in sequence, and the reflected laser received by the interferometer body passes through the filter 6 and the interferometer lens 1 in sequence; when the dimming component rotates to the second position, the filter 6 is perpendicular to the interferometer lens 1, and the orthographic projection of the filter 6 on the plane to which the interferometer lens 1 belongs does not overlap with the interferometer lens 1, and the laser emitted by the interferometer lens 1 or the reflected laser received only passes through the interferometer lens 1, and does not pass through the filter 6.

[0046] In some implementations of this embodiment, the laser interferometer further includes a limiting structure, and the limiting structure is used to limit the dimming component to the first position or the second position. In these implementations, the dimming component can only be in the first position or the second position to prevent the dimming component from shaking freely in the box 2.

[0047] In some implementations of this embodiment, the limiting structure includes a magnetic track, such as a first magnetic track 8 and a second magnetic track 9, wherein the first magnetic track 8 is used to fix the dimming component in the first position, and the second magnetic track 9 is used to fix the dimming component in the second position. The first magnetic track 8 and the second magnetic track 9 limit the dimming component by magnetic force. For example, when the attraction force from the first magnetic track 8 to the dimming component is greater than the attraction force from the second magnetic track 9, the dimming component is attracted and fixed in the first position; when the attraction force from the first magnetic track 8 to the dimming component is less than the attraction force from the second magnetic track 9, the dimming component is attracted and fixed in the second position; when the attraction force from the first magnetic track 8 to the dimming component is equal to the attraction force from the second magnetic track 9, the dimming component is rotated to limit the dimming component in the first position or the second position.

[0048] In some implementations of this embodiment, the first magnetic track 8 is perpendicular to the second magnetic track 9, for example, Figure 1 The first magnetic track 8 is perpendicular to the second magnetic track 9, and the first magnetic track 8 and the second magnetic track 9 form an L-shaped structure. The first magnetic track 8 and the second magnetic track 9 are used to fix the filter 6 and the frame 5 to prevent the filter 6 from shaking at will, avoid damaging the filter 6, and ensure the accuracy of subsequent measurements.

[0049] In this embodiment, when the rotating shaft 4 rotates the filter 6 to the first position, the filter 6 is parallel to the interferometer lens 1, and the laser can pass through the interferometer lens 1 and the filter 6 in a straight line to reach the strong light reflector to be measured. The reflected laser enters the interferometer lens 1 after passing through the filter 6, and then enters the interferometer body for data collection to complete the measurement; when the rotating shaft 4 rotates the filter 6 to the second position, the filter 6 is perpendicular to the interferometer lens 1, and the surface shape of low-reflection or transmission products can be tested.

[0050] The specific implementation methods described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the utility model in detail. It should be understood that the above description is only the specific implementation method of the utility model and is not used to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
