Through the device, the optical axis of the large-aperture collimator can be adjusted separately in four dimensions: azimuth, pitch, roll and height. The adjustment structure is relatively independent and the adjustment effect is good. Adjusting one parameter will not change the values of the other three parameters. The relevant influence is small, and high-precision adjustment of the optical axis of the large-aperture collimator can be achieved. After the parameters are adjusted, they can be locked and fixed to maintain the long-term stability of the optical axis of the large-aperture collimator.
[0019] Furthermore, the pitch adjustment screw 2 is arranged in the middle of the adjustment end of the pitch adjustment plate 13 and cooperates with the hinge shaft 12 to rotate for pitch adjustment. The pitch adjustment plate 13 is provided with a thread 15 adapted to the pitch adjustment screw 2. The pitch adjustment is achieved by rotating the pitch adjustment screw 2 relative to the pitch adjustment plate 13 to generate a force, and the pitch adjustment plate 13 rotates along the center of the hinge shaft 12 to achieve the pitch adjustment action. After the adjustment is in place, the pitch locking mechanism 3 nuts are used to tighten the pitch adjustment plate 13 from top and bottom, and then the double nuts are locked. The pitch adjustment screw 2 and the pitch locking mechanism 3 simultaneously generate a middle thrust and a pull on both sides of the pitch adjustment plate 13 at three points of action, and the structure is more stable.
[0020] Furthermore, an azimuth adjustment mechanism 11 is installed on the top of the pitch adjustment plate 13. The left and right adjustment screws on the azimuth adjustment mechanism 11 can be rotated respectively to act on the rotating block of the gantry 4 to perform azimuth adjustment. Locking nuts are set on the left and right adjustment screws on the azimuth adjustment mechanism 11. The azimuth adjustment generates a force by rotating the left and right adjustment screws on the azimuth adjustment mechanism 11 to push the rotating block of the gantry 4 to rotate along the center of the hole axis of the gantry 4 and the pitch adjustment plate 13 to realize the azimuth adjustment action. After adjustment is in place, the gantry 4 and the pitch adjustment plate 13 are fixed with screws.

Linear guide rails 9 on both sides are set between the height adjustment bracket 7 and the gantry 4 to realize directional linear motion. The collimator fixing frame 6 is assembled on the height adjustment bracket 7, and the collimator fixing frame 6 is adjusted in linkage. When the height adjustment is adjusted into place, the gantry 4 and the collimator fixing frame 6 are fixed using screws to achieve height position fixation.

After adjustment is in place, the locking nut is used to fix it.
[0023] When in use, when the pitch adjustment is performed by rotating the pitch adjustment screw 2 relative to the pitch adjustment plate 13 to generate a force, the pitch adjustment plate 13 rotates along the center of the hinge shaft 12 to achieve the pitch adjustment action. After the adjustment is in place, the pitch locking mechanism 3 nuts are used to tighten the pitch adjustment plate 13 from top to bottom, and then the double nuts are locked. The pitch adjustment screw 2 and the pitch locking mechanism 3 simultaneously generate a middle thrust and a two-side pull on the pitch adjustment plate 13 at three points of action, and the structure is more stable. In conjunction with the azimuth adjustment, the left and right adjustment screws on the rotating azimuth adjustment mechanism 11 generate a force to push the rotating block of the gantry 4 to rotate along the hole axis of the gantry 4 and the pitch adjustment plate 13 to achieve the azimuth adjustment action. After the adjustment is in place, the gantry is tightened using the screws 4 is fixed to the pitch adjustment plate 13. At the same time, when the height is adjusted, the scissor lift 8 generates a force to make the height adjustment bracket 7 move up and down relative to the gantry 4 to achieve the height adjustment action. Linear guide rails 9 on both sides are set between the height adjustment bracket 7 and the gantry 4 to achieve directional linear motion. The collimator fixing frame 6 is assembled on the height adjustment bracket 7. The collimator fixing frame 6 is adjusted in linkage. When the height adjustment is adjusted into place, the gantry 4 and the collimator fixing frame 6 are fixed using screws to achieve a fixed height position.
