DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0048] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0049] Embodiment 1

[0050] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the prism driving mechanism of this embodiment includes a base 1, a first driving assembly 20, a second driving assembly 30 and a hinge group 4;

[0051] A first driving assembly 20 for driving the movable frame 2 to rotate relative to the base 1 around the output optical axis X; and

[0052] A second driving assembly 30 for driving the carrier 3 to rotate relative to the movable frame 2 around the carrier rotation axis Y;

[0053] The carrier 3 is placed in the moving frame 2, and the two opposite outer sides of the carrier 3 and the two opposite sides of the moving frame 2 are connected by a rotating shaft group 6, respectively. The rotating shaft group 6 forms the carrier rotation axis Y, and one of the rotating shaft groups 6 is a sphere, and the other rotating shaft group 6 is a shaft. The central axis of the shaft is parallel to the carrier rotation axis Y, and the central axis of the shaft passes through the center of the sphere. The rotational movement of the carrier 3 in the moving frame 2, through the connection between the sphere and the shaft, can enable the carrier 3 to rotate around the carrier rotation axis Y relative to the moving frame 2, realizing a specific nodding movement mode. The design of the connection between the sphere and the shaft can provide good support and rotational freedom, so that the carrier 3 can rotate stably on the carrier rotation axis Y without hindrance.

[0054] To ensure that the carrier 3 is built into the moving frame 2 and does not move in the axial direction of the carrier rotation axis Y, the spherical rotation axis group 6 is matched with the spherical recess, and any one of the spherical rotation axis group 6 and the spherical recess is fixed to the moving frame 2, and the remaining one is fixed to the carrier 3;

[0055] The rotating shaft group 6 of the shaft body cooperates with the shaft body positioning groove 60. The cooperation between the rotating shaft group 6 and the shaft body positioning groove 60 can reduce the friction force when the shaft body rotates. Any one of the rotating shaft group 6 of the shaft body and the shaft body positioning groove is fixed to the moving frame 2, and the remaining one is fixed to the carrier 3. In other embodiments, the shaft body and the sphere can be fixed on the carrier 3, and the corresponding spherical recess and the shaft body positioning groove 60 are set on the moving frame 2. In other embodiments, the shaft body and the sphere can also be set separately from the carrier 3 and the moving frame 2.

[0056] The movable frame 2 is provided with bosses 22 on opposite sides, one of the bosses 22 is provided with a spherical rotating shaft group 6, and the other boss 22 is provided with a shaft rotating shaft group 6. The shaft positioning groove 60 is a V-shaped groove, and the shaft rotating shaft group 6 contacts the two inclined surfaces of the V-shaped groove. The design of the spherical rotating shaft group 6 and the V-shaped groove can reduce the friction when the shaft rotates, and the stable support structure can reduce vibration and noise.

[0057] A magnetic attraction component with a magnetic attraction effect is arranged on the carrier 3 and the moving frame 2, a part of the magnetic attraction component is arranged in the carrier 3, and another part is arranged on the moving frame 2. In this embodiment, another part of the magnetic attraction component on the moving frame 2 is a sphere and a shaft, and the sphere and the shaft are made of magnetic materials, and a part of the magnetic attraction component on the carrier 3 is a metal part or a magnetic part embedded in the carrier 3. The magnetic attraction direction of the carrier 3 and the moving frame 2 is also along the incident light axis Z direction.

[0058] The hinge group 4 is used to make the base 1 and the movable frame 2 have at least two connection points and at least one connection point is used as a fixed-point rotation center. Specifically, the hinge group 4 includes at least two connection points distributed on the output optical axis X and both used as fixed-point rotations, that is, all the connection points are distributed along the axial direction of the output optical axis X.

[0059] At least part of the hinge assembly 4 is disposed on the base 1 , and the remaining part of the hinge assembly 4 is disposed on the moving frame 2 ;

[0060] The first driving assembly 20 is distributed on a plane xY perpendicular to the incident optical axis Z; the second driving assembly 30 is distributed on a vertical plane yZ perpendicular to the plane xY.

[0061] The base 1 and the moving frame 2 are connected by a hinge group 4, which can effectively maintain the stability of the prism driving mechanism and reduce the impact caused by vibration or external force. Through the distribution position of the first driving component 20 and the second driving component 30, the rotation direction and angle of the prism driving mechanism can be flexibly controlled to meet different usage requirements. The design of the hinge group 4 can reduce the friction and wear of the mechanism, extend the service life of the mechanism, and reduce maintenance and servicing costs, while ensuring that there is no posture difference after the moving frame 2 is installed.

[0062] The articulated group 4 and the first driving assembly 20 are distributed in the plane xY.

[0063] In this embodiment, by arranging the articulated group 4 and the first drive assembly 20 on the plane xY, the interaction between the components can be made more stable, the posture difference during the assembly process can be reduced, the difficulty of assembly can be reduced, and workers can be more easily positioned and adjusted during the assembly process, thereby improving assembly efficiency and saving time and cost. At the same time, the reasonable layout of the positions of the articulated group 4 and the first drive assembly 20 on the plane xY can optimize the mechanism structure and improve transmission efficiency and operation stability.

[0064] The hinge group 4 is any one of a spherical hinge group, a cylindrical hinge group, and a hinge group of a combination of a sphere and a cylinder.

[0065] These different types of hinge groups 4 can provide various different mechanism movement modes. A reasonably designed hinge group 4 can increase the stability of the structure and reduce vibration and noise. In the present embodiment, the hinge group 4 is a spherical hinge group. The spherical hinge group provides a full range of freedom of movement and can adapt to various working environments and requirements. The spherical hinge group can evenly transfer external loads to various parts of the structure, thereby reducing the pressure on the load-bearing components.

[0066] like Figure 10-11 As shown, the hinge group 4 includes a plurality of first protrusions 40 distributed in the axial direction of the output optical axis X, and a plurality of first grooves 41 corresponding to the first protrusions 40 one by one. The arcuate convex surface of the first protrusion 40 and the first groove 41 are in tangential contact with each other and form at least two fixed-point rotating connection points. Any one of the first protrusion 40 and the first groove 41 is arranged on the base 1, and the remaining one is arranged on the movable frame 2.

[0067] The first method: two spheres;

[0068] The second method: a sphere and a hemisphere;

[0069] The third method: a sphere and a cylinder distributed along the axial direction of the output light axis, the cross section of the cylinder is circular or semicircular, etc.;

[0070] The fourth method: a hemisphere and a cylinder distributed along the axial direction of the output light axis, the transverse cross section of the cylinder is circular or semicircular, etc.;

[0071] The fifth method: two cylinders are distributed along the axial direction of the output light axis, and the transverse cross-section of the cylinder is circular or semicircular, etc.;

[0072] The first protrusion and the base are connected as one body or as separate bodies.

[0073] For example, the groove wall of the first groove 41 has at least three inclined surfaces, and the arcuate convex surface is in tangential and movable contact with the three inclined surfaces.

[0074] The first protrusion 40 is in the shape of a sphere, a hemisphere or other shapes with an arc-shaped convex surface.

[0075] A magnetic adsorption component 5 is provided between the base 1 and the movable frame 2 to enable the hinge group 4 to be movably contacted and connected. At least part of the magnetic adsorption component 5 is provided on the base 1 , and the remaining part of the magnetic adsorption component 5 is provided on the movable frame 2 .

[0076] The magnetic adsorption component 5 provides a convenient connection method, so that the hinge group 4 can be easily disassembled and assembled. The magnetic adsorption component 5 can provide a stable connection to ensure that the hinge group 4 between the base 1 and the moving frame 2 can move safely and is not prone to loosening or falling off. Compared with the traditional friction connection method, the magnetic connection can reduce the friction of the contact surface.

[0077] The magnetic adsorption assembly 5 includes a metal member 50 having a first groove 41 and a magnetic member 51 magnetically attracted to the metal member 50 .

[0078] The first groove 41 on the metal part 50 can better fix the magnetic part 51, ensuring that the magnetic adsorption component 5 is stably connected during the movement and is not easy to fall off or shift. The magnetic part 51 and the metal part 50 are magnetically attracted to each other, which can provide a strong adsorption force, strong anti-interference ability, and not easily affected by external vibration or environmental influences. The moving frame 2 is molded by injection molding and the metal part 50 is embedded.

[0079] The first drive assembly 20 and the second drive assembly 30 are both electromagnetic drive assemblies;

[0080] The first driving assembly 20 includes a first driving coil 200 fixed on the base 1, and a first driving magnet 201 is provided on one side of the moving frame 2 close to the first driving coil 200 and spaced apart from the first driving coil 200;

[0081] The second driving assembly 30 includes a second driving coil 300 fixed on the base 1 , and a second driving magnet 301 spaced apart from the second driving coil 300 is provided on one side of the carrier 3 close to the second driving coil 300 .

[0082] In this embodiment, there are two groups of first driving coils 201 and they are symmetrically distributed around the emission optical axis X.

[0083] The electromagnetic drive assembly can provide efficient driving force, thereby achieving stable movement of the moving frame 2 and the carrier 3, and improving the performance and efficiency of the overall device. By controlling the current of the first drive coil 200 and the second drive coil 300, the magnetic field excitation of the first drive magnet 201 and the second drive magnet 301 can be achieved, and the position and movement trajectory of the moving frame 2 and the carrier 3 can be accurately controlled.

[0084] like Figure 5-Figure 7 As shown, an avoidance position 21 is provided on the moving frame 2 , and a magnet mounting portion 302 of a second driving magnet 301 is provided on the carrier 3 and extends into the avoidance position 21 .

[0085] The setting of the avoidance position 21 allows the magnet mounting part 302 of the second driving magnet 301 to be fully extended therein, thereby avoiding direct contact between the carrier 3 and the magnetic part 51 on the moving frame 2, reducing wear and friction. By setting the avoidance position 21, the stable installation of the second driving magnet mounting part 302 is ensured, and the magnet mounting part 302 is avoided from falling off or shifting due to external interference, thereby extending the service life of the magnetic part.

[0086] like Figure 8 As shown, a coil circuit board 10 is provided on the base 1, at least part of the coil circuit board 10 is distributed on the plane xY, and at least part of the remaining coil circuit board 10 is distributed on the vertical plane yZ, the first drive coil 200 is fixed on the part of the coil circuit board 10 distributed on the plane xY, and the second drive coil 300 is fixed on the part of the coil circuit board 10 distributed on the vertical plane yZ.

[0087] The different parts of the coil circuit board 10 are arranged on the plane and the elevation respectively, and the space of the base 1 is effectively utilized, so that the layout of the coil circuit board 10 is more reasonable and compact, which helps to reduce the overall size of the equipment, improve the integration of the equipment, facilitate wiring design and electrical connection, reduce line crossing and interference, and improve the stability and reliability of the system.

[0088] The sphere can prevent the axial movement of the shaft, and the combination of the shaft and the sphere can ensure the rotation accuracy and rotation smoothness, ensure the accuracy of the position and posture of the two, and avoid the influence on the focusing accuracy during relative movement. In this embodiment, the rotation axis group 6 is a mixed group of the sphere rotation axis and the shaft rotation axis. The advantage of this design is that the mixed sphere and shaft can ensure the smooth relative rotation between the carrier 3 and the moving frame 2, while preventing the relative movement between the two in the Y direction of the carrier rotation axis, thereby improving the operation accuracy of the system.

[0089] Embodiment 2

[0090] The working principle and structure of this embodiment are basically the same as those of the first embodiment, except that:

[0091] The hinge group 4 includes a connection point distributed on the incident optical axis Z as a fixed-point rotation center and at least two connection points that move in arcuate trajectories. The at least two connection points that move in arcuate trajectories move on concentric spherical surfaces with the fixed-point rotation connection point as the rotation center.

[0092] The hinge group 4 includes a plurality of second protrusions B40 distributed on the incident optical axis Z, and second grooves B41 corresponding one to the second protrusions B40. One second protrusion B40 among the plurality of second protrusions B40 is in tangential contact with a second groove B41 to form a connection point serving as a fixed-point rotation center, and the remaining second protrusions B40 are in tangential contact with the remaining second grooves B41 to form at least two connection points that move in an arc trajectory.

[0093] Specifically, one connection point serving as a fixed-point rotation center is a rotating ball group, and the remaining connection points moving in an arc trajectory are a revolving ball group. The moving frame 2 is used to drive the prism to perform a micro-rotation on a plane yZ perpendicular to the emergent optical axis X, so as to achieve the effect of the prism shaking its head. In this embodiment, the second protrusion B40 is arranged between the moving frame 2 and the base 1, and in a space perpendicular to the emergent optical axis X.

[0094] In this embodiment, the second protrusion B40 is arranged on the same plane yZ. When the movable frame 2 rotates, the second protrusion B40 is a fixed ball and its position does not change. The second protrusion B40 is a moving ball and the center of its moving arc is located at the position of the second protrusion B40.

[0095] Part of the second protrusion B40 moves or rolls in an arc trajectory relative to the base 1 and / or the movable frame 2 on a plane yZ perpendicular to the emergent optical axis X.

[0096] The second protrusion B40 is any one of a complete spherical structure and an incomplete spherical structure. The incomplete spherical structure is, for example, a hemisphere. In this case, the hemisphere is fixed to the base 1 or the moving frame 2, and the hemispherical surface of the hemisphere moves in an arc trajectory relative to the base 1 or the moving frame 2.

[0097] When the complete spherical structure is selected, the revolving sphere can roll in an arc trajectory relative to the base 1 and the moving frame 2 at the same time.

[0098] The second protrusion B40 can achieve smoother and more stable revolution motion, reduce friction and wear, increase the service life of components, and also improve the accuracy and efficiency of the equipment. Through the second protrusion B40, more accurate positioning and motion control can be achieved.

[0099] The base 1 and / or the movable frame 2 is provided with a second groove B41 for at least part of the second protrusion B40 to extend into, and the second protrusion B40 moves or rolls along an arc trajectory relative to the second groove B41.

[0100] The second groove B41 can effectively limit the range of motion of the second protrusion B40, preventing it from deviating from the track or leaving the base 1 and / or the moving frame 2. This design can reduce friction and wear, extend the service life of the second protrusion B40 and the second groove B41, and also improve the stability and precision of the device. Through the design of the second groove B41, a smoother and more efficient revolution motion can be achieved, which is suitable for various mechanical systems and equipment that require precise control and stable support.

[0101] The second protrusion B40 of the rotating ball group rotates relative to the base 1 and / or the moving frame 2.

[0102] The second protrusion B40 of the rotating ball group has a fixed sphere, the purpose of which is to provide a rotating fixed axis for the device.

[0103] The second protrusion B40 also has two situations: a complete spherical structure and an incomplete spherical structure. When the second protrusion B40 adopts a complete spherical structure, the second protrusion B40 can rotate relative to the base 1 and / or the movable frame 2.

[0104] When the second protrusion B40 is a non-complete spherical structure, for example, a hemisphere, the hemisphere is fixed to the base 1, and the arcuate spherical surface of the hemisphere is in tangential rotational contact with the moving frame 2. Of course, the setting position of the hemisphere can also be changed.

[0105] A second groove B41 for at least partially accommodating the second protrusion B40 of the revolving ball group is provided on the base 1, and a second groove B41 for at least partially accommodating the second protrusion B40 of the revolving ball group is provided on the moving frame 2.

[0106] In this embodiment, the second groove B41 is a semicircular groove, and its surface is completely fitted with the second protrusion B40. The second protrusion B40 is partially fixed in the second groove B41. The second groove B41 is a triangular arc groove. The second protrusion B40 is partially arranged in the second groove B41. A slight movement is allowed between the second protrusion B40 and the second groove B41.

[0107] The prism driving mechanism also includes a first magnetic adsorption component 11 distributed axially along the output optical axis X, at least a portion of the first magnetic adsorption component 11 is arranged on the base 1, and the remaining portion of the first magnetic adsorption component 11 is arranged on the moving frame 2, at least the portion arranged on the base 1 and the remaining portion arranged on the moving frame 2 are distributed at intervals in the axial direction of the output optical axis X and are magnetically attracted to each other.

[0108] The function of the first magnetic adsorption component 11 is to make the base 1 and the moving frame 2 attract each other, so as to realize a magnetic adsorption connection method, so that the two can be firmly adsorbed to each other, while ensuring that the second protrusion B40 and the second protrusion B40 can always be fixed between the base 1 and the moving frame 2.

[0109] The first driving assembly 20 is distributed in a plane xY perpendicular to the incident optical axis Z; the second driving assembly 30 is distributed in the plane xY.

[0110] Embodiment 3

[0111] The structure and principle of this embodiment are basically the same as those of the first or second embodiment, and the difference lies in that, with respect to the prism driving mechanism of the first or second embodiment, the lens driving device of this embodiment includes a prism driving mechanism.

[0112] A lens drive is a device used to adjust the position or focal length of a lens, usually by mechanical, electrical or other means. The main function of a lens drive is to adjust the position of the lens to achieve control of the focal length, focus or focusing of the optical system.
