TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of optical fiber scanner structure, and particularly relates to a double-driving Lissajous optical fiber scanner. BACKGROUND
[0002] The optical fiber scanner is a display technology using a scanning driver to control the swing of an optical fiber while the light emitted by the optical fiber, which is mainly used in the technical fields of optical fiber scanning display technology, optical fiber scanning endoscope technology, optical fiber scanning radar and the like. When the optical fiber scanner is applied to image display, the color of the pattern irradiated by the technology is sharp and saturated, the contrast is high, the brightness is high, and the structure volume is very small.
[0003] The optical fiber scanner uses the mechanical resonance principle to make the cantilever of the optical fiber realize a large scanning range. The scanning mode of the scanning driver can be divided into spiral scanning, grid scanning and Lissajous scanning. The miniature piezoelectric scanning device of the Lissajous scanning generally has two driving parts, which vibrate along two directions simultaneously. The closer the driving frequencies of the two directions in the Lissajous scanning are, the closer the uniformity (density) of the scanning grid in the two directions is, and theoretically, the closer the driving frequencies of the two directions are, the better. However, the closer the inherent frequencies used in the two directions of the scanner are, the more obvious the vibration coupling effect is, which can deteriorate the scanning trajectory and cause uncontrolled components in the scanning trajectory, resulting in distortion of the scanning image, which is difficult to completely eliminate through post-processing. Therefore, the inherent frequencies used in the two directions of the Lissajous scanner preferably have a precise difference range, so that neither coupling effect is caused due to too small difference nor uniformity is not met due to too large difference.
[0004] However, the Lissajous scanner with the inherent frequencies used in the two directions having a precise difference requires extremely high processing precision, and neither the cost of the processing equipment nor the yield can be guaranteed. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION
[0005] The present application provides a double-driving Lissajous optical fiber scanner to reduce the processing difficulty and improve the processing yield.
[0006] In order to achieve the above application purposes, the present application provides a double-driving Lissajous optical fiber scanner, which comprises a cylindrical piezoelectric actuating part, a sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part fixedly connected with the cylindrical piezoelectric actuating part, and an optical fiber fixedly arranged on the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part in a cantilever support mode,
[0007] The cylindrical piezoelectric actuating part comprises a cylindrical body, the axial extension direction of the cylindrical body is the front-rear direction, the rear end of the cylindrical body is fixedly connected with a base to be supported by the base,
[0008] At least one side of the left and right sides of the cylindrical body is provided with a first piezoelectric sheet, and the front end of the cylindrical body is driven to vibrate left and right along the horizontal direction by the expansion and contraction of the first piezoelectric sheet,
[0009] The sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part is arranged along the horizontal direction, is located at the front side of the cylindrical body, and is fixedly connected to the cylindrical body at the rear end. The front end of the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part vibrates along the vertical direction. The optical fiber is fixedly arranged at the front end of the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part in a cantilever support manner. The sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part and the cylindrical body have an overlapping part in the front-rear direction. The sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part and the overlapping part make the combined part composed of the cylindrical piezoelectric actuating part, the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part and the optical fiber have a natural frequency in the horizontal direction greater than the same order natural frequency of the combined part in the vertical direction, and make the combined part have a difference between a certain order natural frequency closest to the V order natural frequency in the horizontal direction and the V order natural frequency in the vertical direction, and V is an integer greater than or equal to 1.
[0010] The application utilizes the shape structure and / or size parameter adjustment of the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part and the overlapping part to make the natural frequencies of the combined part in two directions meet the requirements of being close enough to ensure good scanning effect and having uniform and dense scanning grid, and also have enough difference to make the vibration of the combined part in two directions not coupled.
[0011] The difference meets the requirements that the vibration of the combined part in the horizontal direction and the vibration in the vertical direction do not couple when the piezoelectric actuating part performs Lissajous scanning under the driving of the driving signal. Generally, the difference is in the range of 10 Hz to 12 KHz. Further preferably, the difference is in the range of 1 KHz to 10 KHz. The value of the V order natural frequency of the cantilever in the horizontal direction is selected according to the selected scanner, as long as the difference meets the requirements that the scanner cantilever has enough amplitude when the piezoelectric actuating part performs Lissajous scanning under the driving, and the vibration of the scanner cantilever in the horizontal direction and in the vertical direction does not couple. For those skilled in the art, numerical selection according to the above description is a conventional technical means in the art.
[0012] Preferably, the natural frequency of the cylindrical body in the horizontal direction and the same order natural frequency in the vertical direction are the same or similar. The cylindrical body meeting such requirements is of regular shape and rotational symmetry structure, so that the processing difficulty of the cylindrical body is low, the processing error is easy to control, and the yield is high, such as a cylindrical body or a square cylindrical body.
[0013] Optionally, any one side of the left and right sides of the cylindrical body is provided with a first piezoelectric sheet, and the front end of the cylindrical body is driven to vibrate left and right along the horizontal direction by the expansion and contraction of the first piezoelectric sheet. The number of the first piezoelectric sheets can be one, two or more. When the number of the first piezoelectric sheets is two or more, each first piezoelectric sheet expands and contracts synchronously and equally.
[0014] Optionally, the first piezoelectric sheet is arranged on the left and right sides of the cylindrical body, and the first piezoelectric sheet arranged on the left side and the first piezoelectric sheet arranged on the right side synchronously and reversely stretch and contract by the same length to drive the front end of the cylindrical body to vibrate left and right in the horizontal direction. The number of the first piezoelectric sheets arranged on the same side can be one, two or more. When the number of the first piezoelectric sheets arranged on the same side is two or more, the first piezoelectric sheets arranged on the same side synchronously stretch and contract by the same length.
[0015] Preferably, the surface of the cylindrical body on which the first piezoelectric sheet is arranged is a plane, so as to facilitate the arrangement of the piezoelectric sheet. Further optionally, the surface of the cylindrical body on which the first piezoelectric sheet is arranged can be the inner surface of the cylindrical body or the outer surface of the cylindrical body.
[0016] Further preferably, when the first piezoelectric sheet is arranged on the left and right sides of the cylindrical body, the first piezoelectric sheets arranged on the left and right sides of the cylindrical body are symmetrically arranged, so as to drive the cylindrical body to accurately vibrate left and right in the horizontal direction without generating a displacement component in the vertical direction.
[0017] Optionally, the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part is a single piezoelectric sheet actuator or a double piezoelectric sheet actuator.
[0018] The one or more technical solutions in the application have at least the following technical effects or advantages:
[0019] The application makes the piezoelectric actuating part of the Lissajous scanner itself not necessarily have a specific difference in the inherent frequencies in the two driving directions, and also avoids the coupling of the vibrations in the two driving directions, thereby reducing the processing difficulty and the requirement for processing precision. Further preferably, the application allows the inherent frequencies of the cylindrical body in the two driving directions to be the same or close to each other, and allows the cylindrical body itself to be a rotationally symmetric structure, which further reduces the processing difficulty of the piezoelectric actuating part of the Lissajous scanner, and significantly improves the processing efficiency and the yield.

[0033] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0034] Example 1:
[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a dual-drive Lissajous fiber optic scanner includes a cylindrical piezoelectric actuator, a sheet-like piezoelectric actuator 103 fixedly connected to the cylindrical piezoelectric actuator, and an optical fiber 104 fixedly mounted on the sheet-like piezoelectric actuator 103 in a cantilevered manner.
[0036] The cylindrical piezoelectric actuator includes a cylindrical body 100, with the axial extension direction of the cylindrical body 100 as the front-rear direction. The rear end of the cylindrical body 100 is fixedly connected to the base 200 and supported by the base 200.
[0037] At least one side of the cylindrical body 100 is provided with a first piezoelectric sheet 101, and the front end of the cylindrical body 100 is driven to vibrate left and right along the horizontal direction by the expansion and contraction of the first piezoelectric sheet 101,
[0038] The sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 is arranged along the horizontal direction, is located at the front side of the cylindrical body 100, and is fixedly connected to the rear end of the cylindrical body 100. The front end of the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 vibrates along the vertical direction. The optical fiber 104 is fixedly arranged at the front end of the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 in a cantilever support manner. The sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 and the cylindrical body 100 have a coincident part 105 in the front-rear direction. The sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 and the coincident part 105 make the combined part composed of the cylindrical piezoelectric actuating part, the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 and the optical fiber 104 have a natural frequency in the horizontal direction greater than the same order natural frequency of the combined part in the vertical direction, and make the combined part have a difference between a certain order natural frequency in the vertical direction closest to a V order natural frequency in the horizontal direction and the V order natural frequency in the horizontal direction, and V is an integer greater than or equal to 1.
[0039] The combined part has a first order natural frequency, a second order natural frequency, a third order natural frequency, …, and an N order natural frequency in the vertical direction. One of the natural frequencies (for example, a U order natural frequency, U is an integer greater than or equal to two) is closest to the V order natural frequency in the horizontal direction (V is less than U). The closer the driving frequencies in the two directions in the Lissajous scanning are, the closer the uniformity (density) of the scanning grid in the two directions is, and the more the number of points is. In theory, the closer the driving frequencies in the two directions are, the better. However, the closer the natural frequencies used by the combined part in the two directions are, the more obvious the coupling effect will be. Therefore, the shape structure and / or size parameter of the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 and the coincident part 105 are adjusted so that the natural frequencies of the combined part used in the two directions are close enough to ensure good scanning effect and have a uniform and dense scanning grid, and at the same time have a sufficient difference to prevent the vibration of the combined part in the two directions from being coupled.
[0040] The difference satisfies that when the piezoelectric actuating part is driven to perform Lissajous scanning, the vibration of the combined part in the horizontal direction and the vibration in the vertical direction will not be coupled. Generally, the difference is in the range of 10 Hz to 12 KHz. Further preferably, the difference is in the range of 1 KHz to 10 KHz. The value of the V order natural frequency in the horizontal direction of the scanner cantilever is selected according to the selected scanning device, as long as the difference satisfies that when the piezoelectric actuating part is driven to perform Lissajous scanning, the scanner cantilever has a sufficient amplitude, and the vibration of the scanner cantilever in the horizontal direction and in the vertical direction will not be coupled. For those skilled in the art, numerical selection according to the above description is a conventional technical means in the art.
[0041] Preferably, the inherent frequency of the cylindrical body 100 in the horizontal direction and the same order inherent frequency in the vertical direction are the same or similar, the cylindrical body 100 meeting such requirements is of regular shape and rotationally symmetric structure, so that the cylindrical body 100 has low processing difficulty, processing error is easy to control, and the yield is high, such as a cylindrical body or a square cylindrical body.
[0042] Optionally, any one of the left and right sides of the cylindrical body 100 is provided with a first piezoelectric sheet 101, and the front end of the cylindrical body 100 is driven to vibrate left and right along the horizontal direction by the expansion and contraction of the first piezoelectric sheet 101. The number of first piezoelectric sheets 101 can be one, two or more. When the number of first piezoelectric sheets 101 is two or more, each first piezoelectric sheet 101 synchronously and equally expands and contracts.
[0043] Optionally, the left and right sides of the cylindrical body 100 are both provided with a first piezoelectric sheet 101, and the first piezoelectric sheet 101 on the left side synchronously and reversely expands and contracts with the first piezoelectric sheet 101 on the right side to drive the front end of the cylindrical body 100 to vibrate left and right along the horizontal direction. The number of first piezoelectric sheets 101 on the same side can be one, two or more. When the number of first piezoelectric sheets 101 on the same side is two or more, the first piezoelectric sheets 101 on the same side synchronously and equally expand and contract.
[0044] Preferably, the surface of the cylindrical body 100 provided with the first piezoelectric sheet 101 is a plane, so as to facilitate the arrangement of the piezoelectric sheet. Further optionally, the surface of the cylindrical body 100 provided with the first piezoelectric sheet 101 can be the inner surface of the cylindrical body 100 or the outer surface of the cylindrical body 100.
[0045] Further preferably, when the left and right sides of the cylindrical body 100 are both provided with a first piezoelectric sheet 101, the first piezoelectric sheets 101 on the left and right sides of the cylindrical body 100 are symmetrically arranged to drive the cylindrical body 100 to accurately vibrate left and right along the horizontal direction, without generating a displacement component in the vertical direction.
[0046] Optionally, the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuator 103 is a single piezoelectric sheet actuator or a double piezoelectric sheet actuator.
[0047] The present application makes the piezoelectric actuator of the Lissajous scanner itself not necessarily have a specific difference in the inherent frequency in the two driving directions, and also avoids coupling of vibration in the two driving directions, thereby reducing the processing difficulty and the requirement for processing accuracy; further preferably, the present application allows the inherent frequency of the cylindrical body 100 in the two driving directions to be the same or similar, and allows the cylindrical body 100 itself to be a rotationally symmetric structure, which further reduces the processing difficulty of the piezoelectric actuator of the Lissajous scanner, and significantly improves the processing efficiency and yield.

[0136] This embodiment also has the beneficial effects of Example 7.
[0137] Example 9:
[0138] In combination Figure 10 , Figure 11 As shown in FIG. 1, a double-drive Lissajous fiber scanner includes a cylindrical body and a fiber 104,
[0139] The axis of the cylindrical body extends in the front-rear direction, and the rear end of the cylindrical body is fixedly connected to the base 200 to be supported by the base 200.
[0140] The cylindrical body includes four support columns 105 arranged at four corners and four side plates 106 connecting any two adjacent support columns 105, and the upper side plate 106 is a sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103, the length of the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 in the front-rear direction is longer than that of the other three side plates 106.
[0141] The rear half of the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 is surrounded by the four support columns 105 and the other three side plates 106 to form a cylindrical coincident part, the front end of the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 vibrates in the vertical direction, and the fiber 104 is fixedly arranged at the front end of the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 in a cantilever support manner.
[0142] At least one side of the left and right sides of the cylindrical coincident part is provided with a first piezoelectric sheet 101, and the front end of the cylindrical body is driven to vibrate left and right in the horizontal direction by the expansion and contraction of the first piezoelectric sheet 101.
[0143] The sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 makes the inherent frequency of the combination of the cylindrical body, the first piezoelectric sheet 101 and the fiber 104 in the horizontal direction greater than the same order inherent frequency of the combination in the vertical direction, and makes the combination in the vertical direction have a difference between a certain order inherent frequency closest to the V order inherent frequency in the horizontal direction and the inherent frequency in the horizontal direction, V is an integer greater than or equal to 1.
[0144] The combination part has a first-order natural frequency, a second-order natural frequency, a third-order natural frequency, and an Nth-order natural frequency in the vertical direction, wherein the natural frequency of a certain order (for example, Uth-order, U is an integer greater than or equal to two) is closest to the Vth-order natural frequency of the combination part in the horizontal direction (V is less than U). The closer the driving frequencies of the two directions in the Lissajous scan are, the closer the uniformity (density) of the scan grid in the two directions is, and the more the number of points is. In theory, the closer the driving frequencies of the two directions are, the better. However, the closer the natural frequencies of the combination part used in the two directions are, the more obvious the coupling effect will be. Therefore, the shape structure and / or size parameter of the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 is adjusted so that the natural frequencies of the combination part used in the two directions are close enough to ensure good scanning effect and have a uniform and dense scan grid, and at the same time have a sufficient difference so that the vibration of the combination part in the two directions does not produce coupling. Therefore, the shape structure and / or size parameter of the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 is adjusted to make the vibration frequencies of the combination part in the two directions meet the Lissajous scanning working condition requirements, which reduces the processing size and precision requirements of the cylindrical body, makes the processing difficulty of the cylindrical body low, and the processing error easy to control, and the yield is high.
[0145] At the same time, the rigidity of the support column 105 is greater than that of the side plate 106, which can isolate the mutual deformation interference of the side plate 106 vibrating in the horizontal direction and the side plate 106 vibrating in the vertical direction, and improve the scanning accuracy.
[0146] In the embodiment, the Vth-order is the first-order, and the Uth-order is the second-order. Of course, this is only the parameter selection of the embodiment, and in other embodiments of the similar structure type of the embodiment, V can also be selected as an integer greater than 1, and U is selected as an integer greater than V.
[0147] The difference satisfies that when the combination part is driven by the driving signal to perform Lissajous scanning, the vibration of the combination part in the horizontal direction and the vibration of the combination part in the vertical direction do not produce coupling.
[0148] Generally, the difference range is 10Hz-12KHz. Further preferably, the difference range is 1KHz-10KHz. The value of the Vth-order natural frequency of the scanner cantilever in the horizontal direction is selected according to the selected scanner cantilever, as long as the scanner cantilever has sufficient amplitude when the piezoelectric actuating part is driven to perform Lissajous scanning, and the vibration of the scanner cantilever in the horizontal direction and the vibration of the scanner cantilever in the vertical direction do not produce coupling. For those skilled in the art, numerical selection according to the above description is a conventional technical means in the art.
[0149] Optionally, the first piezoelectric sheet 101 is arranged on any one of the left and right sides of the cylindrical coincident part, and the front end of the cylindrical coincident part is driven to vibrate left and right in the horizontal direction by the expansion and contraction of the first piezoelectric sheet 101.

When the number of the first piezoelectric sheet 101 is two or more, each of the first piezoelectric sheets 101 expands and contracts synchronously and equally.

[0154] Embodiment 10:
[0155] In combination with FIGS. 1-9, Figure 12 、 Figure 13 A double-drive Lissajous fiber scanner includes a cylindrical body and a fiber 104,
[0156] The axis of the cylindrical body is taken as the front-rear direction, and the rear end of the cylindrical body is fixedly connected with the base 200 to be supported by the base 200.
[0157] The cylindrical body includes support columns 105 arranged at four corners and four side plates 106 connecting any two adjacent support columns 105, and the side plate 106 on the upper side is a sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103, the length of the sheet-shaped piezoelectric actuating part 103 in the front-rear direction is longer than the lengths of the other three side plates 106.
[0158] The rear half of the sheet piezoelectric actuator 103 is surrounded by the four support columns 105 and the remaining three side plates 106 to form a cylindrical coincident part, the front end of the sheet piezoelectric actuator 103 vibrates in the vertical direction, and the optical fiber 104 is fixedly arranged at the front end of the sheet piezoelectric actuator 103 in a cantilever support manner,
[0159] The inner surface and the outer surface of at least one side of the left and right sides of the cylindrical coincident part are respectively provided with a corresponding first inner electrode 1011 and a first outer electrode 1012, and the part between the first inner electrode 1011 and the corresponding first outer electrode 1012 of the cylindrical coincident part is a piezoelectric material part polarized in the thickness direction, which is driven by the first inner electrode 1011 and the corresponding first outer electrode 1012 to stretch and contract in the front-rear direction, and the front end of the cylindrical body is driven to vibrate left and right in the horizontal direction,
[0160] The support plate makes the natural frequency of the combination of the cylindrical body and the optical fiber 104 in the horizontal direction greater than the same order natural frequency of the combination in the vertical direction, and makes the combination in the vertical direction have a difference between a certain order natural frequency close to the V order natural frequency in the horizontal direction and the natural frequency in the horizontal direction, V is an integer greater than or equal to 1.
[0161] The combination has a first order natural frequency, a second order natural frequency, a third order natural frequency, …, and an N order natural frequency in the vertical direction, and there is a certain order (for example, U order, U is an integer greater than or equal to two) of the natural frequency closest to the V order natural frequency of the combination in the horizontal direction (V is less than U), the closer the driving frequencies of the two directions in the Lissajous scan, the closer the uniformity (density) of the scan grid in the two directions, the more the number of points, theoretically the closer the driving frequencies of the two directions, but the closer the natural frequencies of the combination used in the two directions, the more obvious the coupling effect, so the application adjusts the shape and / or size parameters of the support plate to make the natural frequencies of the combination used in the two directions meet the requirements of the Lissajous scan condition, which reduces the requirements of the machining size and precision of the cylindrical body, makes the machining difficulty of the cylindrical body low, and the machining error easy to control, and the yield rate high.
[0162] At the same time, the rigidity of the support column 105 is greater than that of the side plate 106, which can isolate the mutual deformation interference of the side plate 106 vibrating in the horizontal direction and the side plate 106 vibrating in the vertical direction, and improve the scanning accuracy.
[0163] In this embodiment, the V order is the first order, and the U order is the second order. Of course, this is only the parameter selection of this embodiment. In other embodiments of similar structure types as this embodiment, V can also be selected as an integer greater than 1, and U is selected as an integer greater than V.
[0164] The difference satisfies that when the combination part is driven by the driving signal to perform Lissajous scanning, the vibration of the combination part in the horizontal direction and the vibration in the vertical direction do not generate coupling.
[0165] Generally, the difference ranges from 10 Hz to 12 KHz. Further preferably, the difference ranges from 1 KHz to 10 KHz. The value is selected according to the selected V order natural frequency of the scanner cantilever in the horizontal direction. As long as the difference satisfies that when the piezoelectric actuating part is driven to perform Lissajous scanning, the scanner cantilever has sufficient amplitude, and the vibration of the scanner cantilever in the horizontal direction and the vibration in the vertical direction do not generate coupling, it is acceptable. For those skilled in the art, numerical selection according to the above description is a conventional technical means in the art.

The part of the barrel-shaped coincident part between the first inner electrode 1011 and the corresponding first outer electrode 1012 is a piezoelectric material part polarized in the thickness direction. The piezoelectric material part between the first inner electrode 1011 and the corresponding first outer electrode 1012 is driven to stretch and contract in the front-back direction by the first inner electrode 1011 and the corresponding first outer electrode 1012. The front end of the barrel-shaped coincident part is driven to vibrate left and right in the horizontal direction. The number of first inner electrodes 1011 or first outer electrodes 1012 can be one, two or more.
[0167] Optionally, the inner surface and the outer surface of the left and right sides of the barrel-shaped coincident part are respectively provided with a first inner electrode 1011 and a first outer electrode 1012 corresponding to the first inner electrode 1011 and the first outer electrode 1012. The part of the barrel-shaped coincident part between the first inner electrode 1011 and the corresponding first outer electrode 1012 is a piezoelectric material part polarized in the thickness direction. The piezoelectric material part between the first inner electrode 1011 and the corresponding first outer electrode 1012 is driven to stretch and contract in the front-back direction by the first inner electrode 1011 and the corresponding first outer electrode 1012. The piezoelectric material parts on the upper and lower sides are synchronously and reversely stretched and contracted in equal length, and the front end of the barrel-shaped coincident part is driven to vibrate left and right in the horizontal direction. The number of first inner electrodes 1011 or first outer electrodes 1012 on the same side can be one, two or more.
[0168] Further preferably, when the inner surface and the outer surface of the left and right sides of the barrel-shaped coincident part are respectively provided with a first inner electrode 1011 and a first outer electrode 1012 corresponding to the first inner electrode 1011, the first inner electrodes 1011 on the left and right sides of the barrel-shaped coincident part are symmetrically arranged to drive the barrel-shaped coincident part to accurately vibrate left and right in the horizontal direction, without generating a vertical displacement component.
