[0004] Existing thickness detection technologies can typically only achieve qualitative judgments (such as pass / fail) based on preset thresholds, and cannot meet the high-precision absolute thickness measurement requirements of optical communication module components.

[0005] Based on this, the present invention designs a thickness detection device for optical communication module components to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that existing thickness detection technologies can only achieve qualitative judgments (such as pass / fail) based on preset thresholds, and cannot meet the high-precision absolute thickness measurement requirements of optical communication module components. Therefore, a thickness detection device for optical communication module components is proposed.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] A thickness detection device for optical communication module components includes a base, a scale fixedly connected to the base, a measuring device clamped on the outside of the scale, and an illumination device and an auxiliary device fixedly connected to the front of the measuring device.

[0009] The measuring device includes a movable plate that is mounted outside the scale. A pressure plate is fixedly connected to one side of the movable plate and rests on the base.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] The measuring device also includes a clamping plate, which is sleeved outside the scale. An adjusting screw is rotatably connected inside the clamping plate, and a nut is threaded onto the external part of the adjusting screw. The nut is fixedly connected inside the movable plate.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] The irradiation device includes a battery pack and a connecting plate. The battery pack is fixedly connected to the front of the movable plate. A wire is provided inside the battery pack. A laser lamp is connected through the connecting plate. The wire is fixedly connected inside the laser lamp.

[0024] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0025] 1. In this utility model, when it is necessary to measure a workpiece, the operator first applies force to the clamping plate in the horizontal direction, causing the moving plate to slide smoothly on the guide rail, so that sufficient measuring space is formed between the pressure plate and the base. After the workpiece to be measured is accurately placed on the positioning surface of the base, the clamping plate is slowly released. At this time, the pressure plate moves vertically downward along the scale under the action of gravity. When the lower surface of the pressure plate is in complete contact with the upper surface of the workpiece, the moving plate stops moving. At this time, the relative position of the moving plate on the scale is the thickness value of the workpiece. By directly reading the scale line corresponding to the edge of the moving plate on the scale, an intuitive and accurate thickness measurement result can be obtained. The entire measurement process does not require an additional power source and relies on gravity to achieve automatic positioning.

[0026] 2. In this utility model, when the laser lamp is turned on during the measurement process, the laser beam is projected onto the surface of the horizontally set scale at a specific tilt angle, forming a high-contrast illumination spot in the scale area. The operator can clearly observe the position of the laser beam on the scale through a magnifying glass installed at the observation position. This optical magnification system effectively enhances the visual resolution of the scale lines, making it easier to judge the alignment of the edge of the moving plate with the scale lines, significantly improving the reading accuracy and measurement reliability. The directional illumination characteristics of the laser can also eliminate ambient light interference, ensuring stable observation results under different lighting conditions.

[0033] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0034] Please see Figures 1-4 ,

[0035] First embodiment:

[0036] This utility model provides a technical solution: a thickness detection device for optical communication module components, including a base 1, a scale 2 fixedly connected to the base 1, a measuring device 3 clamped on the outside of the scale 2, and an irradiation device 4 and an auxiliary device 5 fixedly connected to the front of the measuring device 3.

[0037] The measuring device 3 includes a movable plate 34, which is mounted on the outside of the scale 2. A pressure plate 35 is fixedly connected to one side of the movable plate 34 and overlaps the base 1.

[0038] Specifically, such as Figure 2-3 As shown, the measuring device 3 also includes a clamping plate 31, which is sleeved on the outside of the scale 2. An adjusting screw 32 is rotatably connected inside the clamping plate 31, and a nut 33 is threadedly connected to the external thread of the adjusting screw 32. The nut 33 is fixedly connected inside the moving plate 34. The threaded engagement between the adjusting screw 32 and the nut 33 enables precise positioning control of the moving plate 34. By rotating the adjusting screw 32, the nut 33 can be driven to produce axial displacement, thereby precisely adjusting the initial position of the moving plate 34 on the scale 2. This mechanical self-locking characteristic can ensure rapid pre-positioning before measurement and maintain stable position locking during measurement, avoiding accidental displacement caused by gravity and ensuring the accuracy of thickness readings. The progressive adjustment characteristic of the threaded pair is particularly suitable for adaptive measurement of workpieces of different heights.

[0039] Both the clamping plate 31 and the moving plate 34 are provided with fixing screws 36, and both the clamping plate 31 and the moving plate 34 are provided with internal threads, and the fixing screws 36 and the internal threads form a threaded connection.

[0040] Second embodiment:

[0041] During operation, when workpiece measurement is required, the operator first applies horizontal force to the clamping plate 31, causing the moving plate 34 to slide smoothly on the guide rail, creating sufficient measurement space between the pressure plate 35 and the base 1. After accurately placing the workpiece to be measured on the positioning surface of the base 1, the clamping plate 31 is slowly released. At this time, the pressure plate 35 moves vertically downward along the scale 2 under the action of gravity. When the lower surface of the pressure plate 35 is in complete contact with the upper surface of the workpiece, the moving plate 34 stops moving. The relative position of the moving plate 34 on the scale 2 at this time is the workpiece thickness value. By directly reading the scale line corresponding to the edge of the moving plate 34 on the scale 2, an intuitive and accurate thickness measurement result can be obtained. The entire measurement process does not require an additional power source and achieves automatic positioning by gravity.

[0042] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the irradiation device 4 includes a battery pack 41 and a connecting plate 43. The battery pack 41 is fixedly connected to the front of the movable plate 34. A wire 42 is provided inside the battery pack 41. A laser lamp 44 is passed through the connecting plate 43. The wire 42 is fixedly connected inside the laser lamp 44. The wire 42 and the laser lamp 44 are electrically connected. The laser lamp 44 is set to an inclined position with a certain angle, and the emitting end corresponds to the position of the scale 2. The auxiliary device 5 includes a fixing block 51, which is fixedly connected to the front of the movable plate 34. A connecting rod 52 is passed through the fixing block 51. A sleeve 53 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting rod 52. A magnifying glass 54 is fixedly connected inside the casing 53. The magnifying glass 54 and the laser lamp 44 are at the same level, and the magnifying glass 54 is located directly in front of the scale 2. The tilted laser lamp 44 and the horizontally aligned magnifying glass 54 form a composite observation system. The laser beam is projected onto the surface of the scale 2 at a specific angle to form a bright mark, and the magnifying glass 54 optically magnifies the marked area. This combination not only overcomes the parallax problem of visual reading of the traditional scale 2, but also significantly improves the accuracy of scale identification without changing the observation distance through the synergistic effect of the light spot and the magnifying glass 54. It is especially suitable for the discrimination of micron-level thickness differences.

[0043] During operation, when the laser lamp 44 is turned on during the measurement process, the laser beam is projected onto the surface of the horizontally set scale 2 at a specific tilt angle, forming a high-contrast illumination spot in the scale area. The operator can clearly observe the position of the laser beam on the scale 2 through the magnifying glass 54 installed at the observation position. This optical magnification system effectively enhances the visual resolution of the scale lines, making it easier to judge the alignment of the edge of the moving plate 34 with the scale lines, significantly improving the reading accuracy and measurement reliability. The directional illumination characteristics of the laser can also eliminate ambient light interference, ensuring stable observation results under different lighting conditions.

[0044] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
