[0027] The utility model provides an infrared lens data compensation device. Figures 1 to 3This is a specific embodiment of an infrared lens data compensation device provided by the utility model.
[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an infrared lens data compensation device 100, including a metal shell 1, a calibration cavity 11 is provided in the metal shell 1, and the metal shell 1 has a mounting surface, an opening is provided on the mounting surface for the infrared lens to extend into the calibration cavity 11, and the inner wall of the calibration cavity 11 is covered with a black oxide coating.
[0029] In the present invention, a calibration cavity 11 is provided in the metal shell 1, and the metal shell 1 has a mounting surface. An opening is provided on the mounting surface for the infrared lens to extend into the calibration cavity 11, and the inner wall of the calibration cavity 11 is covered with a black oxide coating. In this patent, by extending the infrared lens into the calibration cavity 11 of the metal shell 1, it is ensured that the imaging area of the infrared lens is within the calibration cavity 11, so that the metal shell 1 completely blocks the infrared lens. Then, because the inner wall of the calibration cavity 11 is covered with a black oxide coating, the metal shell 1 can be used as a calibration source, thereby performing data compensation for each pixel of the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device. The infrared lens data compensation device 100 provided by the present invention solves the problem of incomplete compensation of pixel data of ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging devices by existing blackbody calibration sources.
[0030] The shape of the calibration cavity 11 is not limited, as long as the imaging area of the infrared lens is within the calibration cavity 11. For example, in some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the calibration cavity 11 is hemispherical. When installed, the infrared lens detector is positioned at the center of the calibration cavity 11, ensuring that the distance from the infrared lens detector to each position on the inner wall of the calibration cavity 11 is consistent, thereby improving the data compensation effect for each pixel of the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device.
[0031] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the thickness of the black oxide coating is uniform at all locations, thereby providing an inner surface with uniform heat radiation, thereby improving the data compensation effect of the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device.
[0032] There is no limitation on the installation method of the metal housing 1 and the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device. For example, in some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the infrared lens data compensation device 100 also includes a locking structure 2 for removably attaching the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device. The locking structure 2 is connected to the metal housing 1 and is arranged in a ring shape. This arrangement enables the infrared lens data compensation device 100 to be removably attached to the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device via the locking structure 2, allowing the infrared lens data compensation device 100 to perform data compensation for each pixel of the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device while also acting as a lens cover to prevent dust.
[0033] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, a warning ribbon 3 is provided on the locking structure 2. When the infrared lens data compensation device 100 acts as a lens cover, in order to prevent the staff from forgetting to remove the infrared lens data compensation device 100, which causes the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device to fail to work normally, the warning ribbon 3 is provided to serve as a reminder.
[0034] The specific composition of the locking structure 2 is not limited, as long as the locking structure 2 and the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device can be detachably mounted. For example, in some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the locking structure 2 includes a first locking portion 21 and a second locking portion 22. The first locking portion 21 and the second locking portion 22 are connected at one end and can be brought into contact with each other and detachably connected at the other end. This arrangement allows the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device to be locked and unlocked through the interplay of the locking ends of the first locking portion 21 and the second locking portion 22, thereby enabling detachable installation.
[0035] Furthermore, in some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the locking structure 2 further includes a locking screw 23 and a nut 24. The first locking portion 21 is provided with a connection port 211, and the second locking portion 22 is provided with a locking groove 221 corresponding to the connection port 211. The nut 24 is disposed in the locking groove 221. The locking screw 23 passes through the connection port 211 and extends into the locking groove 221 to connect with the nut 24. When the locking screw 23 is tightened, the locking ends of the first locking portion 21 and the second locking portion 22 are driven toward each other. When the locking screw 23 is loosened, the first locking portion 21 rebounds under the action of elastic force and moves away from the second locking portion 22.
[0036] In order to prevent the locking screw 23 from being disconnected from the nut 24 due to excessive tightening of the locking screw 23 by the staff, in some embodiments, as shown in FIG. Figure 2As shown, a limiting washer 25 is sleeved on the locking screw 23 and is located between the locking ends of the first locking portion 21 and the second locking portion 22. The limiting washer 25 limits the movable travel of the locking screw 23, thereby preventing the locking screw 23 from being disconnected from the nut 24 and causing the locking screw 23 to be lost.
[0037] In order to increase the deformation of the first locking portion 21, in some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, a release groove 212 is formed along the length of the first locking portion 21. The release groove 212 is located on the side of the connection port 211 that is closer to the metal housing 1. This arrangement reduces the connection area between the movable portion of the first locking portion 21, the second locking portion 22, and the metal housing 1, thereby increasing the deformation of the first locking portion 21 and making it easier to tighten the locking screw 23.
[0038] In order to avoid collision between the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device and the locking structure 2 during installation, which may cause surface damage to the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device, in some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the inner wall of the locking structure 2 is covered with an elastic buffer portion 26 that can abut and fix the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device. By placing the elastic buffer portion 26 between the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device and the inner wall of the locking structure 2, the ultra-wide-angle infrared imaging device and the locking structure 2 are prevented from colliding during installation.
[0039] In some embodiments, the locking structure 2 is made of metal and is integrally formed with the metal housing 1. This configuration increases the service life of the infrared lens data compensation device 100 and improves the assembly efficiency of the various components of the infrared lens data compensation device 100.
[0040] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
