[0027] This application proposes a laser absorption device, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the laser absorption device includes: a housing 10, one side of the housing 10 is provided with an opening, the opening is arranged along the length direction of the housing 10, and a first cooling channel 11 is formed inside the housing 10; the housing 10 is surrounded by a housing wall, the inner surface of the housing wall is provided with a light absorption area, and a second cooling channel 12 is arranged on the housing wall; a light transmissive member 13, arranged at the opening, and the side of the light transmissive member 13 facing outward is inclined downward; a heat dissipation member 50, arranged on the inner wall of the housing 10 away from the opening. In this embodiment, the direction pointed by the straight arrow is the incident direction of the reflected light. By arranging the laser absorption device, it can be used to absorb the reflected light. The reflected light can enter the inside of the housing 10 through the light transmissive member 13 and the opening and be absorbed, avoiding interference with the working optical path. At the same time, heat dissipation media can be input into the first cooling channel 11 and the second cooling channel 12 to dissipate heat from the inside and outside of the housing 10 respectively. The arrangement of the heat dissipation member 50 can accelerate the diffusion of the heat inside the housing 10 to the outside, and at the same time increase the contact area between the heat dissipation medium and the cooling medium inside the first cooling channel 11, further improving the heat dissipation efficiency. The light transmissive member 13 can be selected as quartz glass, and the inclined setting of its outer side can obtain a larger daylighting range and improve the collection rate of the reflected light.

[0028] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the housing wall includes two end caps 14 arranged at intervals, and an upper wall assembly 20, a side wall assembly 30 and a lower wall assembly 40 which are arranged between the end caps 14 and are connected in sequence. The light transmissive member 13 is respectively connected to the edges of the end caps 14, the upper wall assembly 20 and the lower wall assembly 40. In this embodiment, the housing 10 can be a strip-shaped structure. The upper wall assembly 20, the side wall assembly 30, the lower wall assembly 40 and the light transmissive member 13 are connected end to end in sequence to form a tubular structure, wherein the upper wall assembly 20 and the lower wall assembly 40 are spaced apart, and the side wall assembly 30 and the light transmissive member 13 are spaced apart. The upper wall assembly 20, the side wall assembly 30, the lower wall assembly 40 and the light transmissive member 13 can be locked by screws, and sealant or sealing rings can also be arranged at the connection parts to achieve sealed connection. The internal cavity of the tubular structure constitutes the above-mentioned first cooling channel 11. The end caps 14 are arranged at both ends of the tubular structure to close both ends of the tubular structure and prevent leakage of the cooling medium. The above-mentioned cooling medium can be air or inert gas. After the reflected light enters the housing 10 through the light transmissive member 13 and irradiates on the inner surface, after a series of absorption and reflection processes, the inner surface of the housing wall can absorb the incident reflected light and generate heat, and the heat is dissipated by the inert gas input in a cycle.

[0029] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the opening is arranged along the length direction of the upper wall assembly 20, the width of the upper wall assembly 20 is greater than the width of the lower wall assembly 40, the light-transmitting member 13 is connected to the edges of the upper wall assembly 20 and the lower wall assembly 40, and one side surface of the light-transmitting member 13 is inclined downward. In this embodiment, since the reflected light is emitted obliquely upward, the inclined setting of the light-transmitting member 13 can increase the daylighting range and prevent the reflected light from directly irradiating the lower part of the lower wall assembly 40. The lower wall assembly 40 is narrower than the upper wall assembly 20, and after its inward contraction, it can avoid the emitted light to a certain extent. Relative to the lower wall assembly 40, the edge of the upper wall assembly 20 extends outward to a certain extent, which can also collect more reflected light and prevent the reflected light from emitting outside the edge of the upper wall assembly 20, thus maximizing the collection rate of the emitted light as much as possible.

[0030] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the surface of the upper wall assembly 20 facing the lower wall assembly 40 is provided with a slope surface, and the slope surface is arranged facing the side wall assembly 30; the slope surface is provided with a reflection area and / or an absorption area. In this embodiment, in addition to absorbing the emitted light, the above slope surface can also reflect part of the reflected light so that its emission direction is towards the inside of the housing 10, and the heat dissipation effect inside the housing 10 is better, improving the heat dissipation efficiency. The above reflection area can be set as a mirror surface, and the absorption area can be set as a diffuse reflection surface to improve the light absorption efficiency. The section of the slope surface close to the light-transmitting member 13 can be set as a mirror surface. Here, the material is thicker and the heat dissipation effect is slightly worse. The section of the slope surface far from the light-transmitting member 13 can be set as a diffuse reflection surface. Here, the material is thinner and the heat dissipation effect is good, which can be used to absorb the reflected light.

[0031] Of course, the surface of the upper wall assembly 20 facing the lower wall assembly 40 can also be set as a V-shaped surface, including a slope surface on the side close to the light-transmitting member 13 and an inclined surface on the side close to the light absorption member. The slope surface can be completely set as a reflection surface, and the inclined surface can be set as a diffuse reflection surface. The surface of the lower wall assembly 40 close to the upper wall assembly 20 is set as a diffuse reflection surface, which can adjust the emission direction of the reflected light entering the housing 10, ensure that the reflected light irradiates completely towards the depth of the housing 10, and ensure the cooling efficiency deep inside the housing 10, which can match the heat generation efficiency after the reflected light is concentrated, so that the device has a better heat dissipation effect.

[0032] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , at least one of the upper wall assembly 20, the side wall assembly 30 and the lower wall assembly 40 is provided with a second cooling channel 12. In this embodiment, the above second cooling channel 12 can be arranged in any one or two of the three. Of course, in order to improve the heat dissipation efficiency, all three can be provided with the second cooling channel 12. The second cooling channel 12 is also arranged along the length direction of the housing 10, and the cooling medium can be a liquid medium, such as water, etc.

[0033] Furthermore, the lower wall assembly 40 includes a channel-shaped member 41 and a cover plate 42 disposed at the opening of the channel-shaped member 41. The channel-shaped member 41 and the cover plate 42 enclose to form a second cooling channel 12. The above-mentioned channel-shaped member 41 can be a through-channel structure with openings at both ends, and the two ends are closed by end caps 14. It can also be a channel-shaped structure with closed ends. After the cover plate 42 is disposed on the channel-shaped member 41, a sealed chamber, that is, the second cooling channel 12, can be formed. Such a setting can expand the volume of the second cooling channel 12 as much as possible and improve the heat dissipation effect of the lower wall assembly 40. In addition, since the upper wall assembly 20 directly receives the irradiation of the reflected light, its heat load is relatively large. The volume of the second cooling channel 12 in the upper wall assembly 20 can be made larger than the volume of the second cooling channel 12 in the lower wall assembly 40 to accelerate heat dissipation.

[0034] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the heat dissipation member 50 includes fins or protrusions disposed on the inner wall of the side wall assembly 30. The above-mentioned fins can absorb more reflected light relative to the diffuse reflection surface, and can also exchange heat with the cooling medium in the first cooling channel 11, improving the contact area and heat dissipation efficiency. Of course, the heat dissipation member 50 is not limited to the fin structure, and can also be a protrusion array, which can also absorb more reflected light relative to the diffuse reflection surface.

[0035] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the laser absorption device further includes a roller 61 disposed at the lower part of the housing 10. The rolling of the roller 61 can enable the laser absorption device to move along the length direction. In this embodiment, the laser absorption device can be disposed on one side of the spot intercepting structure to absorb the reflected light. The two can be disposed on a machine table. When maintenance or disassembly of the laser absorption device is required, it can be pulled out along the above-mentioned length direction. The setting of the roller 61 generates rolling friction between the laser absorption device and the machine table, facilitating removal. It should be noted that a handle for grasping can be further disposed on the end cap 14, and a guide rail 70 adapted to the roller 61 is disposed on the machine table. Two sets of rollers 61 are provided, one of which abuts against the bottom surface of the two shoulders of the guide rail 70, and the other set can abut against the side surface of the two shoulders of the guide rail, playing a role of limiting and guiding.

[0036] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the laser absorption device further includes a gas supply device and a gas drying device communicated with the first cooling channel 11. The gas supply device can be used to provide carbon dioxide or nitrogen for heat exchange inside the housing 10, playing a cooling effect. The gas drying device is used to dry the inside of the housing 10 to avoid condensation caused by too low temperature, which affects the laser processing equipment.

[0037] It should be noted that two sets of connectors can be provided on the above-mentioned housing 10. One set is provided at both ends of the first cooling channel and is used to communicate with an external gas path. The other set is provided at both ends of the second cooling channel and is used to communicate with an external cooling water path.

[0038] This application also provides a laser processing device. Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , it includes the above-mentioned laser absorption device. The laser processing device further includes a machine table for mounting the laser absorption device. In this embodiment, the laser processing device can be used in the laser peeling or laser annealing process of an OLED flexible display screen, and can also be used in processes such as laser rust removal or laser engraving.

[0039] In the embodiment of this application, the working principles of the laser absorption device and the laser processing device are as follows:

[0040] By providing the laser absorption device, it can be used to absorb the reflected light. The reflected light enters the interior of the housing 10 through the light-transmitting member 13 and the opening and is absorbed, avoiding interference with the working light path. At the same time, heat dissipation media can be input into the first cooling channel 11 and the second cooling channel 12 to dissipate heat from the interior and the exterior of the housing 10 respectively. The setting of the heat dissipation member 50 can accelerate the diffusion of the heat inside the housing 10 to the outside, and at the same time increase the contact area between the heat dissipation medium and the cooling medium inside the first cooling channel 11, further promoting heat dissipation.

[0041] The above are only partial or preferred embodiments of this application. Whether in terms of text or drawings, they cannot limit the scope of protection of this application. Any equivalent structural transformation made using the content of the specification and drawings of this application under the overall concept of this application, or any direct / indirect application in other related technical fields, is included in the scope of protection of this application.
