[0026] The present application will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.
[0027] Figure 1 The structure diagram of the fine adjustment butt joint locking device is shown. The structure diagram of the fine adjustment butt joint locking device is shown. In the figure: 1, objective lens; 2, mounting cylinder; 21, internal thread part; 22, internal sliding cavity; 3, focusing field mirror; 31, sliding convex ring; 4, clamping ring; 5, locking sleeve.
[0028] In the embodiment of the present application, the focusing field lens is adjustably installed at the second end inside the mounting cylinder, the first end of which can be axially displaced by rotation through matching of the external thread with the internal thread of the mounting cylinder, the sliding protrusion ring at the middle part is in sliding connection with the internal sliding cavity of the mounting cylinder, ensuring the stability of the focusing field lens during movement. The first end of the clamping ring is in abutment with the end face of the second end of the mounting cylinder, and is in threaded connection with the external thread of the second end of the focusing field lens, so that the focusing field lens can be fixed at the appropriate position after adjustment. The locking sleeve is sleeved on the external periphery of the clamping ring, and is in threaded connection with the external second end of the mounting cylinder, so as to further compress the clamping ring and realize reliable locking of the whole device, thereby ensuring the position stability of each component during use and jointly constructing a precise optical mechanical structure with adjustment and locking functions.
[0029] In some embodiments, the rotation directions of the external threads of the first end and the second end of the focusing field lens 3 are opposite, the rotation direction of the internal thread of the clamping ring 4 is the same as that of the external thread of the second end of the focusing field lens 3, the rotation direction of the internal thread of the first end of the locking sleeve 5 is the same as that of the external thread of the second end of the focusing field lens 3, the rotation direction of the external thread of the external second end of the mounting cylinder 2 is the same as that of the external thread of the second end of the focusing field lens 3, and the rotation direction of the internal thread part 21 of the mounting cylinder 2 is the same as that of the external thread of the first end of the focusing field lens 3.
[0030] In one example, the external thread of the first end of the focusing field lens 3 is right-handed thread, the external thread of the second end of the focusing field lens 3 is left-handed thread, the internal thread of the clamping ring 4 is left-handed thread, the internal thread of the first end of the locking sleeve 5 is left-handed thread, the external thread of the external second end of the mounting cylinder 2 is left-handed thread, and the internal thread part 21 of the mounting cylinder 2 is right-handed thread.
[0031] In another example, the external thread of the first end of the focusing field lens 3 is left-handed thread, the external thread of the second end of the focusing field lens 3 is right-handed thread, the internal thread of the clamping ring 4 is right-handed thread, the internal thread of the first end of the locking sleeve 5 is right-handed thread, the external thread of the external second end of the mounting cylinder 2 is right-handed thread, and the internal thread part 21 of the mounting cylinder 2 is left-handed thread.
[0032] In the embodiment of the present application, when the focusing field lens is rotated, the two ends thereof move differently due to different rotation directions, and in cooperation with the threads of the mounting cylinder and other components, a unique movement is generated. For example, in the first example, the first end of the focusing field lens is right-handed, and is in cooperation with the internal thread part of the mounting cylinder to rotate forward or backward; the second end is left-handed, and is in cooperation with the clamping ring, the locking sleeve and the external thread of the mounting cylinder. In this way, by rotating the focusing field lens, accurate axial position adjustment can be achieved, and after adjustment, the position of the focusing field lens is stabilized by the clamping ring and the locking sleeve which are in the same rotation direction as the second end of the focusing field lens. The second example is the same, except that the rotation directions are opposite. Through this design, the requirements for high-precision adjustment and reliable fixation of the fine adjustment docking locking device are met.
[0033] In some embodiments, the external threads of the first and second ends of the focusing field lens 3 are right-handed differential threads, the pitch of the first end of the focusing field lens 3 is greater than the second end, the internal threads of the retainer 4 are right-handed threads and have the same pitch as the external threads of the second end of the focusing field lens 3, the internal threaded portion 21 of the mounting cylinder 2 is right-handed threads and has the same pitch as the external threads of the first end of the focusing field lens 3, the internal threads of the first end of the locking sleeve 5 are left-handed threads, and the external threads of the external second end of the mounting cylinder 2 are left-handed threads.
[0034] In some embodiments, the external threads of the first and second ends of the focusing field lens 3 are right-handed differential threads, the pitch of the first end of the focusing field lens 3 is less than the second end, the internal threads of the retainer 4 are right-handed threads and have the same pitch as the external threads of the second end of the focusing field lens 3, the internal threaded portion 21 of the mounting cylinder 2 is right-handed threads and has the same pitch as the external threads of the first end of the focusing field lens 3, the internal threads of the first end of the locking sleeve 5 are right-handed threads, and the external threads of the external second end of the mounting cylinder 2 are right-handed threads.
[0035] In some embodiments, the external threads of the first and second ends of the focusing field lens 3 are left-handed differential threads, the pitch of the first end of the focusing field lens 3 is greater than the second end, the internal threads of the retainer 4 are left-handed threads and have the same pitch as the external threads of the second end of the focusing field lens 3, the internal threaded portion 21 of the mounting cylinder 2 is left-handed threads and has the same pitch as the external threads of the first end of the focusing field lens 3, the internal threads of the first end of the locking sleeve 5 are right-handed threads, and the external threads of the external second end of the mounting cylinder 2 are right-handed threads.
[0036] In some embodiments, the external threads of the first and second ends of the focusing field lens 3 are left-handed differential threads, the pitch of the first end of the focusing field lens 3 is less than the second end, the internal threads of the retainer 4 are left-handed threads and have the same pitch as the external threads of the second end of the focusing field lens 3, the internal threaded portion 21 of the mounting cylinder 2 is left-handed threads and has the same pitch as the external threads of the first end of the focusing field lens 3, the internal threads of the first end of the locking sleeve 5 are left-handed threads, and the external threads of the external second end of the mounting cylinder 2 are left-handed threads.
[0037] In the embodiment of the application, differential threads are used at both ends of the focusing field mirror, and precise adjustment is achieved by thread cooperation with various components through the difference in thread pitch. Taking the case where the right-handed thread has a larger first-end thread pitch than a second-end thread pitch as an example, when the focusing field mirror is rotated, the first end moves a larger distance relative to the mounting cylinder than the second end due to cooperation with the thread part in the mounting cylinder and the thread of the clamping ring, thereby generating differential displacement and achieving fine adjustment. After adjustment, the clamping ring is used to stabilize the position, and then the locking sleeve is locked by cooperating with the outer thread of the mounting cylinder. When the first-end thread pitch is smaller than the second-end thread pitch or the thread rotation direction is left-handed, the principle is similar, except that the movement direction is changed. This diversified design can accurately control the axial position of the focusing field mirror according to different scene requirements, and meets the high-precision requirement of the fine adjustment butt joint locking device.
[0038] It is worth mentioning that the objective lens 1, the focusing field mirror 3, the clamping ring 4, and the locking sleeve 5 are coaxially arranged.
[0039] Next, the working principle of the fine adjustment butt joint locking device in the embodiment of the application is described.
[0040] If the focusing field mirror 3 is rotated clockwise, the mounting cylinder 2 and the clamping ring 4 are in a state of moving in opposite directions. When the mounting cylinder 2 and the clamping ring 4 are in a clamped state, they cannot move in opposite directions, so the device is in a self-locking state when the focusing field mirror 3 moves clockwise.
[0041] If the focusing field mirror 3 is rotated counterclockwise, the mounting cylinder 2 and the clamping ring 4 are in a state of moving in opposite directions. The friction between the focusing field mirror 3 and the clamping ring 4 will drive the clamping ring 4 to rotate counterclockwise, and the friction between the clamping ring 4 and the locking sleeve 5 will drive the locking sleeve 5 to rotate counterclockwise. However, the counterclockwise rotation direction of the locking sleeve 5 is the same as the locking direction, so it cannot rotate counterclockwise and thus cannot loosen the locking sleeve 5. Therefore, the clamping ring 4 and the mounting cylinder 2 cannot move in opposite directions, and the entire device is in a self-locking stable state.
[0042] In conclusion, the technical scheme comprises an objective lens fixedly installed at the first end inside the installation cylinder, a focusing field mirror adjustably installed at the second end inside the installation cylinder, the first end of which has external threads matched with the internal threads of the installation cylinder, the end of which has a sliding convex ring slidably connected with the internal sliding cavity of the installation cylinder, a tight ring with the end face of the first end abutting against the end face of the second end of the installation cylinder, the second end of which is threadedly connected with the external periphery of the focusing field mirror, and has internal threads matched with the external threads of the second end of the focusing field mirror, and a locking sleeve sleeved on the external periphery of the tight ring, the first end of which has internal threads matched with the external threads of the second end of the installation cylinder, and the end face of the second end of which abuts against the end face of the second end of the tight ring. In this case, when the non-stop focusing of the focusing field mirror is completed, the tight ring is tightened, and then the locking sleeve is locked, so that the whole device is in a self-locking stable state, and the device has the advantages of simplicity, high durability, wide application range, easy processing and high adjustment reliability.
