Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical measurement equipment technology, and in particular to a parallel turntable for optical measurement equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Optical measurement equipment is a crucial tool for space target detection, early warning monitoring, advanced weapon testing, and astronomical observation, representing a nation's technological development level and comprehensive strength in optical engineering. The servo turntable is a key component of optical measurement equipment, and its design directly affects the system's tracking accuracy. Currently, common turntable types include azimuth-pitch and XY types. While these two types of dual-axis turntables have simple structures, they suffer from tracking blind spots and error accumulation. In contrast, parallel mechanisms have become a research hotspot due to their high precision and lack of error accumulation. Turntables represented by Stewart's six-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism have been widely used in optical measurement equipment, but they suffer from strong motion coupling, limited rotation range, and complex structure. Therefore, researching turntables with large workspace, no tracking blind spots, no error accumulation, and simple structure is essential for achieving high-precision tracking control of optical measurement equipment.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the parallel turntable of the optical measuring equipment provided for an embodiment of this utility model. (See attached diagram.) Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a parallel turntable for optical measuring equipment, which may include:
[0022] A circular base 1, with multiple rotating mechanisms connected to the top of the circular base 1;
[0023] Multiple crank connecting rods 2, the bottom ends of which are rotatably connected to multiple rotating mechanisms respectively;
[0024] The lens barrel 3 is rotatably connected to the top of multiple crank connecting rods 2 on its outer periphery.
[0025] The parallel turntable of the optical measuring equipment provided by this utility model uses multiple rotating mechanisms to cooperate with each other. The rotation of multiple crank connecting rods 2 drives the lens barrel 3 to achieve three-dimensional pure rotational motion. The parallel turntable of this optical measuring equipment has excellent motion continuity, thereby improving the tracking accuracy and stability of the optical measuring equipment.
[0026] Specifically, in one specific embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the parallel turntable of this optical measuring equipment includes three rotating mechanisms, which may include:
[0027] A drive motor 4 is provided, and a transmission gear 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 4. A transmission gear ring 6 is provided on the outer periphery of the circular base 1. The transmission gear 5 meshes with the transmission gear ring 6 for transmission.
[0028] Sliding connector 7 is fixedly connected to drive motor 4;
[0029] The first rotating joint 8 is fixedly connected to the sliding connector 7 and is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the crank connecting rod 2.
[0030] Furthermore, the top of the circular base 1 of the parallel turntable of the optical measuring equipment is provided with an annular guide rail 9, and the sliding connector 7 is slidably connected to the annular guide rail 9.
[0031] Furthermore, the outer periphery of the mirror tube 3 of the parallel turntable of the optical measuring equipment is fixedly connected with three second rotating pairs 10, which are rotatably connected to the top end of the crank connecting rod 2.
[0032] The parallel turntable of this optical measuring equipment drives the transmission gear 5 and transmission ring gear 6 through the drive motors 4 of three rotating mechanisms. This drives the sliding connector 7 to slide on the annular guide rail 9, and then drives the lens barrel 3 to achieve three-dimensional pure rotational motion through the first rotating joint 8, the crank connecting rod 2, and the second rotating joint 10. The rotation range of the lens barrel 3 can reach -180° to +180° in the azimuth direction and -30° to +30° in the pitch direction. It should be noted that during the rotation of the lens barrel 3, the drive motors 4 of the three rotating mechanisms have multiple rotation states, including clockwise rotation, counterclockwise rotation, and no rotation. Under the control of the background software program, the drive motors 4 of the three rotating mechanisms achieve the torsion of the three crank connecting rods 2 in different azimuths through the cooperation of various rotation states and rotation angles, so that the lens barrel 3 can obtain the target attitude in three-dimensional rotational space.
[0033] In one specific embodiment of this utility model, the circular base 1, transmission gear ring 6 and annular guide rail 9 of the parallel turntable of the optical measuring equipment are arranged coaxially, the center of the lens barrel 3 is located on the axis, and the axes of the three first rotating joints 8, the axes of the three second rotating joints 10 and the axis of the lens barrel 3 intersect at a point.
[0034] Through the above technical solution, the parallel turntable of the optical measurement equipment adopts a coaxial parallel design method, which reduces the stagnation, stuttering and inertial effects during the rotation of the lens tube 3, and has excellent motion continuity and motion response. Compared with the azimuth-pitch type turntable and XY type turntable of the optical measurement equipment in the prior art, the parallel turntable of the optical measurement equipment provided by the present invention has excellent motion continuity and has the advantages of no blind spot and no error accumulation. Compared with the Stewart six-degree-of-freedom parallel turntable of the optical measurement equipment in the prior art, the parallel turntable of the optical measurement equipment provided by the present invention has the advantages of large working space and simple structure.
[0035] In practical applications, the working principle of the parallel turntable of the optical measuring equipment provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0036] During operation, the parallel turntable of this optical measuring equipment drives the transmission gear 5 and transmission gear ring 6 through the drive motor 4 of three rotating mechanisms. This drives the sliding connector 7 to slide on the annular guide rail 9, and then drives the lens barrel 3 to achieve three-dimensional pure rotational motion through the first rotating pair 8, the crank connecting rod 2 and the second rotating pair 10. The rotation range of the lens barrel 3 can reach -180° to +180° in the azimuth direction and -30° to +30° in the pitch direction. Under the control of the background software program, the drive motor 4 of the three rotating mechanisms achieves the torsion of the three crank connecting rods 2 in different azimuth directions through the cooperation of various rotation states and rotation angles, so that the lens barrel 3 can obtain the target posture in the three-dimensional rotation space. The coaxial parallel design method reduces the stagnation, stuttering and inertial effects during the rotation of the lens barrel 3, and has excellent motion continuity and motion response, thereby improving the tracking accuracy and stability of the optical measuring equipment.
