Detailed Implementation

[0031] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] refer to Figure 1A Gaussian beam measuring device includes a helium-neon laser emitter 1, a camera 2, a guide platform 3, a moving platform 4, and a lens 5. The helium-neon laser emitter 1 is mounted on one end of the guide platform 3 along its length, and the height and angle of the helium-neon laser emitter 1 are adjustable. The camera 2 is mounted on the moving platform 4, and the moving platform 4 is slidably mounted on the guide platform 3 along its length. The lens 5 is mounted on one side of the guide platform 3 along its width, and the lens 5 is located on the line connecting the helium-neon laser emitter 1 and the camera 2.

[0033] By combining multiple components in the above-mentioned design, the helium-neon laser emitter and camera are adjustable. The camera is movable on the guide platform via a mobile platform, which facilitates quick assembly and adjustment. Compared with traditional integrated equipment, different components can be replaced and repaired individually. This not only allows for different teaching experiments to meet different needs by replacing some components, but also provides greater scalability and improves the overall efficiency and reliability of the equipment.

[0034] The guide platform 3 is provided with a guide rail along its length, and the moving platform 4 is also provided with a guide groove that matches the guide rail. The moving platform 4 is slidably mounted on the guide rail through the guide groove. The moving platform 4 is also provided with a stepper motor 6, and the guide platform 3 is also provided with a synchronous belt 8 along its length. The output shaft of the stepper motor 6 is driven by the meshing of the synchronous gear 9 with the teeth on the synchronous belt 8.

[0035] The teeth of the synchronous belt 8 are disposed on the side of the synchronous belt 8 near the guide platform 3, and both ends of the synchronous belt 8 are fixedly connected to the guide platform 3. The synchronous gear 9 is disposed between the synchronous belt 8 and the guide platform 3 and is pressed against the guide platform 3 by the synchronous belt 8. The moving platform is also provided with a guide wheel 10, which is used to press the synchronous belt 8 against the synchronous gear 9 and the guide platform 3, and to allow the synchronous gear 9 to roll along the synchronous belt 8. With the above configuration, the output shaft of the stepper motor meshes with the synchronous belt on the guide platform through the synchronous gear, and its rotation drives the moving platform and the camera on it to move along the synchronous belt. The movement direction of the moving platform is then guided by the guide rail, resulting in smooth movement and precise controllable movement distance, which helps to improve the accuracy of Gaussian beam measurement.

[0036] Using the gear meshing between the timing belt and the timing pulley is more stable and precise than using a motor to directly drive the wheels to walk on the guide platform. It will not deviate vertically, and the measurement of the travel distance is also more accurate in open-loop control.

[0037] It also includes a stepper motor driver board 7, which is connected to the stepper motor 6 and is used to control the movement of the stepper motor 6.

[0038] refer to Figure 2 The stepper motor driver board 7 includes a driver module 7.1, a microcontroller 7.2, a serial port module 7.3, an OLED display interface 7.4, a step-down circuit 7.5, and a power supply module 7.6. The driver module 7.1, the serial port module 7.3, and the OLED display interface 7.4 are all connected to the microcontroller 7.2. The microcontroller 7.2 is also connected to the power supply module 7.6 through the step-down circuit 7.5.

[0039] In this embodiment, the stepper motor is controlled via a stepper motor driver board. The serial port module can send the current position of the moving platform to the computer for calculation. Combined with precise algorithms and automated circuitry, the platform board can be controlled to move smoothly a specified distance without the need for tedious manual movement. This reduces operational complexity and allows for the measurement of more sampling point spot data in a shorter time, resulting in a more accurate beam profile.

[0040] Lens 5 is a convex lens.

[0041] The helium-neon laser emitter 1 is mounted on one end of the guide platform 3 with adjustable height and angle via a telescopic bracket; the camera 2 is mounted on the moving platform 4 with adjustable height via a telescopic bracket. In this embodiment, the telescopic bracket adopts an existing telescopic sleeve design and is fixed by clips, thereby facilitating control of the height of the helium-neon laser emitter and camera, and improving the accuracy and versatility of the experiment.

[0042] The Gaussian beam measurement device in this embodiment integrates a high-precision stepper motor and precise displacement and speed control algorithms. By designing specific speed curves, it controls the motor's acceleration, constant speed, and deceleration processes to achieve smooth motion and precise position control. In this control method, the stepper motor's motion is divided into three stages: acceleration, constant speed, and deceleration. Initially, the speed is slow, gradually increasing or decreasing to the target speed over time, then maintaining a constant speed until near the endpoint, and finally decelerating again via a T-curve to a stop. Based on the speed curves, the number of pulses to be sent to the stepper motor in each time period is calculated, thereby controlling the motor's rotation angle and achieving precise and stable movement of the platform board. This allows for stable beam measurement under various complex experimental conditions.

[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. For those skilled in the art, various modifications and variations can be made to the present utility model within the spirit and principles of the present utility model.
