Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of optical film clamps, in particular to an adjustable clamp for optical films. Background Art
[0002] Optical thin films are a type of optical dielectric material composed of thin layered media that propagate light beams through interfaces. They are widely used in the fields of optics and optoelectronics. In modern science and technology, optical thin films are widely used, such as in the manufacture of various optical instruments, improving the luminous flux of optical lenses, enhancing the output power of lasers, and improving the efficiency and stability of silicon photovoltaic cells.
[0003] When in use, existing coating equipment usually clamps and fixes one side wall of the lens and then coats the other side of the lens. For example, Chinese patent publication No. "CN217973385U" discloses an adjustable optical coating fixture, which includes a workbench, and two groups of relatively distributed vertical plates are fixedly installed on the surface of the workbench. The two side walls of the two groups of relatively distributed vertical plates are rotatably connected to a placement rack. The placement rack is an inverted U-shaped structure, and one side wall of the placement rack is fixedly connected to a rotating rod. The end of the rotating rod away from the placement rack is fixedly connected to a control panel, and the bottom wall of the placement rack is provided with two groups of relatively distributed sliding plates.
[0004] When the optical thin film fixture currently used is clamped, if the length, width, and thickness of the substrate to be coated changes, the fixture needs to be redesigned and processed, which not only wastes time but also increases the cost of coating and causes unnecessary waste.
