[0002] In modern optical instruments, precise imaging angle and position adjustment are key to achieving high-quality images and data acquisition.

Traditional adjustment devices usually include manual adjustment components and fixed optical support structures. Although these devices can achieve basic adjustment functions, they have certain limitations in terms of accuracy, stability, and ease of operation. When the point laser spot is irradiated on the center of the DMD chip, the point laser spot is centered on the image optical axis through illumination. When defocusing, the point laser spot deviates from the center of the image optical axis due to the problem of illumination angle, affecting the lens accuracy.

[0028] The following is a further detailed description of the present invention in conjunction with specific embodiments:
[0029] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a device for adjusting the imaging angle and position includes a DMD chip 1, an imaging lens 2, an illumination lens 3, a connector 4, and an adjusting member 6. One side of the connector 4 is connected to the illumination lens 3, and the DMD chip 1 is fixedly arranged on the other side opposite to the illumination lens 3. A mirror body 5 is also provided in the connector 4. The mirror body 5 is located on the illumination path of the illumination lens 3, and the reflecting surface of the mirror body 5 is tilted toward the DMD chip 1. When a point laser enters from one end irradiated by the illumination lens 3, it is reflected onto the mirror body 5 through the illumination lens 3. The mirror body 5 reflects the reflected light onto the DMD chip 1, and the DMD chip 1 projects the image onto the imaging lens 2. By adjusting the position of the adjusting member 6, the light spot of the point laser is located at the center of the image optical axis, ensuring the clarity and accuracy of the image, reducing the distortion of the image caused by the deviation of the optical path, thereby improving the resolution and clarity of the image, and at the same time helping to ensure that the light received by each micromirror unit on the DMD chip 1 is uniform and accurate, so that each pixel can correctly reflect the image information, thereby improving the accuracy of the overall imaging.
[0030] like Figure 3-Figure 5As shown, a first slot 41 is provided on the side where the connecting member 4 is connected to the adjusting member 6, and the adjusting member 6 is slidably arranged in the first slot 41. A second slot 62 is provided on the side of the adjusting member 6 away from the connecting member 4, and the lighting lens 3 is arranged in the second slot 62 and slides in the second slot 62. By sliding the adjusting member 6 in the first slot 41 and the lighting lens 3 in the second slot 62, the light path of the point laser reflected through the lighting lens 3 on the lens body 5 changes, and the position of the point laser on the image optical axis is changed. By continuously adjusting the position, the lighting lens 3 is moved to a suitable position to ensure that the point laser spot is still in the center of the image optical axis within a certain range of defocus, which can simplify the calibration and debugging process and improve work efficiency. Keeping the point laser spot in the center of the optical axis can reduce image quality problems caused by optical path offset, thereby reducing the cost caused by frequent adjustment and maintenance of equipment.
[0031] Furthermore, a plurality of first slots 61 are provided on the adjusting member 6, and a second slot 63 is provided on the side of the adjusting member 6 and is connected to the second slide groove 62. The screw passes through the first slot 61 to fix the adjusting member 6 in the first slide groove 41, and the screw passes through the second slot 63 to fix the lighting lens 3 in the second slide groove 62. When the adjusting member 6 slides in the first slide groove 41, the first slot 61 limits the sliding range of the adjusting member 6. When the lighting lens 3 slides in the second slide groove 62, the second slot 63 limits the sliding range of the lighting lens 3. The optical path is adjusted within a certain range to ensure that the spot of the point laser can still be maintained at the center of the optical axis even if there is a slight defocus or optical path offset, thereby reducing the image distortion caused by the change of the optical path. Different usage environments and conditions may cause slight changes in the optical path. The adjustability within a certain range enables the system to continue to maintain a stable imaging effect.
[0032] Among them, the first slot 61 is arranged along the axis perpendicular to the imaging lens 2, so that the adjustment member 6 moves in the axial direction perpendicular to the imaging lens 2, and the second slot 63 is arranged along the axis parallel to the imaging lens 2, so that the illumination lens 3 moves along the axial direction parallel to the imaging lens 2. Through adjustment in two directions, the adjustment of the illumination lens 3 is more flexible and accurate, which helps to eliminate the horizontal or vertical offset of the image. By adjusting the two directions at the same time, the best calibration position can be found more quickly, and the efficiency and accuracy of the calibration can be improved. During the installation process, there may be a certain deviation between the DMD chip 1 or the imaging lens 2 and the expected position. By adjusting the adjustment member 6 or the illumination lens 3 along the two perpendicular directions, the deviation can be compensated to ensure the accuracy and stability of the projected image.
[0033] Furthermore, in the axial direction parallel to the imaging lens 2, the maximum distance that the lighting lens 3 can move is less than the length of the second slot 63, and in the axial direction perpendicular to the lens, the maximum distance that the adjustment member 6 can move is less than the length of the first slot 61, which can maximize the adjustment of the lighting path.
[0034] like Figure 7 As shown, the mirror body 5 is fixed to the side of the connector 4 opposite to the lighting lens 3 by a locking screw. A plurality of through holes 42 are penetrated on the side. The through holes 42 are distributed around the locking screw with the locking screw as the center. A top screw is provided in the through hole 42. By adjusting the top screws in the three through holes 42, the angle of the mirror body 5 is adjusted, thereby adjusting the reflection path and adjusting the irradiation spot of the point laser.
[0035] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows:
[0036] When the point laser is irradiated onto the DMD chip 1 through the illumination lens 3 and the mirror body 5 and the image is projected onto the imaging lens 2, the light spot of the point laser is not at the center of the optical axis of the image. At this time, the mirror body 5 is adjusted to a suitable angle by the top screw set in the through hole 42 so that the light spot is located at the center of the optical axis of the image. When the illumination lens 3 is defocused within a certain range, the position of the light spot is offset. Subsequently, the adjustment member 6 is adjusted along the axis parallel to the imaging lens 2, and the illumination lens 3 is adjusted along the axis perpendicular to the imaging lens 2 so that the adjustment member 6 slides in the first slide groove 41 and the illumination lens 3 slides in the second slide groove 62, thereby completing the adjustment of the light path in two directions, so that when the illumination lens 3 is defocused within a certain range, the light spot is still at the center of the optical axis of the image.
