Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of optical measurement equipment, and specifically, it is an optical measurement equipment for prism testing. Background Art
[0002] A prism is an optical device, and its main function is to decompose light into its component colors or spectra according to different wavelengths. It usually consists of multiple planar surfaces, at least one of which is inclined so that light is refracted when incident. This property makes prisms widely used in optical devices such as spectral analysis instruments, telescopes, and microscopes. A corner cube prism is a type of prism that has multiple inclined surfaces and is widely used in scenarios such as optical communication, spectral analysis, and imaging systems.
[0003] Before using a corner cube prism, it is usually tested to ensure that its performance meets the standards. Existing equipment usually uses an interferometer, an industrial camera, a spectrometer, etc. to sequentially test multiple inclined surfaces of the corner cube prism to detect whether the mirror surface is flat and whether there are defects such as water ripples and scratches, so as to ensure that the prism can be applied to experimental scenarios. However, when the existing equipment tests the corner cube prism, it is necessary to continuously adjust the deflection position of the corner cube prism to complete the tests of multiple mirror surfaces and different regions on the same mirror surface, which is rather cumbersome and inefficient.

[0012] To better implement the present utility model, a detachable light-shielding cover is arranged on the test barrel.
[0013] To better implement the present utility model, a through hole is arranged on the support shaft for laying the lines of the interferometer.

Specific embodiments
[0026] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] Embodiment 1:
[0028] This embodiment provides an optical measurement device for prism testing, specifically as Figures 1-4As shown, it includes a test barrel 101, on which an industrial camera 103, a support shaft 104, an interferometer 105, and an image processor are arranged. The industrial camera 103 is arranged on the side wall of the test barrel 101, the support shaft 104 is installed at the bottom of the test barrel 101 directly below the prism, and the interferometer 105 is installed on the support shaft 104; the test barrel 101 is installed with an offset component 2 for adjusting the deflection angle of the prism, and the offset component 2 is installed with a clamping component 3 for clamping the prism.
[0029] The offset assembly 2 includes an offset support ring 203 for supporting the prism, three toggle rods 204 arranged on the support shaft 104, the toggle rods 204 are movably connected to the transmission rods 206, the transmission rods 206 are rotatably connected to the adjustment rods 205, and the adjustment rods 205 are rotatably connected to the offset support ring 203; when the toggle rods 204 are partially rotated, the offset support ring 203 is tilted accordingly, thereby realizing the adjustment of the deflection angle of the prism.
[0030] The industrial camera 103, the interferometer 105, and the image processor are all existing technologies, and those skilled in the art can purchase them according to specific needs. The specific models are not described here.
[0031] After the prism to be tested is firmly placed on the clamping assembly 3, the interferometer 105 and the industrial camera 103 are started, and one or two toggle rods 204 are toggled. At this time, the toggle rod 204 drives the transmission rod 206 to revolve, and the transmission rod 206 pulls the offset support ring 203 through the adjustment rod 205, and the offset support ring 203 begins to tilt, that is, the clamping assembly 3 thereon drives the prism to tilt synchronously. At this time, the transmitting end of the interferometer 105 shines on one surface of the prism, and the interferometer 105 starts to shoot the irradiation situation. The photographed information is transmitted to the image processor, and then automatically identified to filter out defective prisms; then the three toggle rods 204 rotate at the same time, causing the offset support ring 203 to rotate, and at this time the prism also rotates synchronously, and then the prism offset step is repeated. At this time, the interferometer 105 tests the other side of the prism until the test of all the areas to be tested of the prism is completed.
[0032] By setting the offset component 2, the interferometer 105 can complete the test of multiple surfaces of the prism in one test, which solves the problem that the prior art can only test one surface at a time, and achieves the effect of improving the test efficiency.
[0033] Embodiment 2:
[0034] This embodiment is further expanded on the basis of Embodiment 1. Figures 4-6As shown, the offset component 2 further includes a first transmission shaft 208, a second transmission shaft 209, and a third transmission shaft 210. The first transmission shaft 208, the second transmission shaft 209, and the third transmission shaft 210 are respectively fixedly connected to a toggle lever 204. The first transmission shaft 208, the second transmission shaft 209, and the third transmission shaft 210 are respectively rotatably connected to the support shaft 104. A first transmission gear 213 is fixedly connected to the first transmission shaft 208, a second transmission gear 212 is fixedly connected to the second transmission shaft 209, and a third transmission gear 211 is fixedly connected to the third transmission shaft 210. Three motors 201 are installed on the test barrel 101, and a drive gear 202 is fixedly connected to the motor 201. The third transmission gear 211, the second transmission gear 212, and the first transmission gear 213 are respectively meshed with a drive gear 202.
[0035] When it is necessary to rotate a certain toggle lever 204, only the corresponding motor 201 needs to be started. For example, after the motor 201 is started, it drives the drive gear 202, and the drive gear 202 drives the first transmission gear 213 meshed with it. The first transmission gear 213 causes the corresponding toggle lever 204 to rotate through the second transmission shaft 209. By setting the first transmission shaft 208, the second transmission shaft 209, and the third transmission shaft 210, the driving points of the three toggle levers 204 can be dispersed, facilitating the three motors 201 to drive different toggle levers 204 respectively. The motor 201 is selected as a stepping motor to achieve precise control of the offset amount of the offset support ring 203.
[0036] As Figure 4 shown, a cylinder 207 is installed on the toggle lever 204, and the output end of the cylinder 207 is connected to the transmission rod 206. The three cylinders 207 are started synchronously to realize the overall longitudinal movement of the offset support ring 203, the adjusting rod 205, and the transmission rod 206, thereby adjusting the distance between the prism and the interferometer 105 to adapt to the prism tests of various specifications and lengths.
[0037] As Figure 7 shown, the clamping component 3 includes three clamping rods 301 slidably connected to the offset support ring 203. A tension spring 302 is arranged between the clamping rod 301 and the offset support ring 203, and a clamping plate 304 is fixedly installed at the end of the clamping rod 301. The clamping plate 304 on the clamping rod 301 can clamp the prism by the pulling force of the tension spring 302 to keep the prism stable and prevent the prism from falling during the offset process. Moreover, due to the cooperation of the tension spring 302 and the clamping rod 301, the clamping plate 304 can clamp prisms with different diameters or widths, improving its application range.
[0038] An anti-slip pad 303 is provided on the clamping plate 304. The anti-slip pad 303 is any one of a rubber layer, a polyurethane layer, and a silicone layer. By providing the anti-slip pad 303, the friction between the clamping plate 304 and the prism can be enhanced, and further prevent the prism from falling during the offset process.
[0039] As Figure 1 shown, a detachable light-shielding cover 102 is provided on the test barrel 101. Before testing the prism, cover the light-shielding cover 102 on the test barrel 101 to achieve the purpose that external light cannot enter the test barrel 101, which can reduce the influence of external light on the operation of the interferometer 105, and make the image obtained by the industrial camera 103 free from interference and easy to identify.
[0040] As Figure 4 shown, a through hole is provided on the support shaft 104 for laying the circuit of the interferometer 105. Receiving the circuit of the interferometer 105 into the through hole of the support shaft 104 can avoid problems such as entanglement caused by the exposure of the circuit, effectively reduce the failure rate, and improve the aesthetics.
[0041] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not impose any form of limitation on the present invention. Any simple modification or equivalent change made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
