Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of galvanometer motors, and in particular to a galvanometer motor. Background Technology
[0002] A galvanometer motor is a drive device capable of precisely controlling the deflection angle of a reflector, widely used in laser projection, 3D scanning, medical imaging, and micromachining. To achieve high-precision control, an angle detection component is typically required to provide position feedback. Common detection methods include optical and non-optical types. Optical detection usually employs a structure combining a light source and a position sensor. The deflection angle of the lens is calculated by detecting the displacement of the light spot after the beam is reflected by the reflector. In some solutions, the reflector is integrated into the motor shaft, rotating synchronously with the shaft. The light beam emitted by the light source illuminates the mirror surface and is reflected back to the position sensor, forming a closed-loop feedback circuit. Utility Model Content

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the galvanometer motor of this utility model has the following advantages: it includes a housing, a motor, a motor shaft, a light source, a first lens, and a first position sensor.

The exiting light is parallel to the incident light and produces a lateral displacement. This transmitted light beam enters the first signal receiving surface of the first position sensor. When the motor shaft drives the first lens to rotate, the incident angle changes, causing a corresponding change in the offset of the transmitted beam, which in turn moves the position of the light spot on the photosensitive surface of the first position sensor. By pre-calibrating the correspondence between the light spot displacement and the lens deflection angle, an angle detection model is established in the control system to achieve real-time feedback of the motor shaft position and speed.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a galvanometer motor, comprising a motor shaft 10, a housing 20, a light source 40, and a first position sensor 50. The motor shaft 10 is connected to the housing 20, and a first lens 11 and a second lens 14 are respectively connected to both ends of the motor shaft 10. The light source 40, the first lens 11, and the first position sensor 50 are located at the same end of the housing 20. The light source 40 and the first position sensor 50 are respectively arranged opposite to each other on both sides of the motor shaft 10. The first position sensor 50 is provided with a first signal receiving surface 51, and the light source 40 is provided with a light emitting surface 41, which is arranged facing the first signal receiving surface 51. The light source 40 is configured to emit a light beam, which passes through the first lens 11 and then enters the first signal receiving surface 51.
[0025] The galvanometer motor of this invention includes a housing 20, a motor, a motor shaft 10, a light source 40, a first lens 11, and a first position sensor 50. The motor is connected to the housing 20, and the motor's rotation output end is connected to the motor shaft 10. The first lens 11 and the second lens 14 are respectively fixed to both ends of the motor shaft 10, and the first lens 11 and the second lens 14 rotate synchronously with the motor shaft 10. The light source 40 and the first position sensor 50 are located at the same end of the housing 20, and are respectively arranged opposite to each other on both sides of the motor shaft 10. The first position sensor 50 is provided with a first signal receiving surface 51, and the light source 40 is provided with a light emitting surface 41, which faces the first signal receiving surface 51. The light source 40 is configured to emit a light beam, which passes through the first lens 11 and then enters the first signal receiving surface 51. The light source 40 is configured to emit a parallel light beam, which is emitted from the light-emitting surface 41. This beam illuminates the first lens 11 at a certain incident angle, and after refraction and transmission by the first lens 11, it exits. The exiting light is parallel to the incident light and produces a lateral displacement. This transmitted beam is incident on the first signal receiving surface 51 of the first position sensor 50. When the motor shaft 10 drives the first lens 11 to rotate, the incident angle changes, causing a corresponding change in the lateral displacement, i.e., the offset, of the transmitted beam, thereby moving the position of the light spot on the photosensitive surface of the first position sensor 50. By pre-calibrating the correspondence between the light spot offset and the lens deflection angle, an angle detection model is established in the control system to achieve real-time feedback of the position and speed of the motor shaft 10. This scheme uses a transmission optical path for angle detection. The light source 40 and the first position sensor 50 are both located on the same side of the housing 20, resulting in a simple optical path structure that is beneficial for system miniaturization and modular integration.
[0026] The formula for calculating the offset is existing technology.
[0027] As one embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 3As shown, the first lens 11 is a beam splitter, and the second lens 14 is a galvanometer.
[0028] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first lens 11 has a first light-transmitting surface 12 and a second light-transmitting surface 13 arranged opposite to each other, and the first light-transmitting surface 12 and the second light-transmitting surface 13 are parallel to each other. Incident light is obliquely incident on the first light-transmitting surface 12 at a certain angle, resulting in a first refraction; after propagating a certain thickness within the first lens 11, the beam exits from the second light-transmitting surface 13, resulting in a second refraction; according to the principles of geometric optics, the direction of the outgoing light is parallel to the direction of the incident light, but a lateral displacement d is generated; this lateral displacement d changes with the incident angle, which is determined by the rotation angle of the first lens 11 with the motor shaft 10. Therefore, by detecting the position change of the transmitted light spot on the first position sensor 50, the deflection angle of the lens can be deduced. Since the first light-transmitting surface 12 and the second light-transmitting surface 13 are parallel to each other, the outgoing beam after transmission through the first lens 11 remains parallel to the incident beam, ensuring that the transmitted light spot stably falls within the photosensitive area of the first signal receiving surface 51 of the first position sensor 50, thus improving the reliability of signal reception.
[0029] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the housing 20 includes a main housing 21 and a first cover 23. The first cover 23 is connected to one end of the main housing 21 and has an assembly cavity 24. The main housing 21 has an axially extending through groove 22. A motor shaft 10 is rotatably connected to the through groove 22, and one end of the motor shaft 10 extends into the assembly cavity 24 and is connected to a first lens 11. A first position sensor 50 and a light source 40 are respectively connected within the assembly cavity 24. A second lens 14 is connected to the end of the main housing 21 away from the first cover 23. The first lens 11 is used for angle feedback detection, and the second lens 14 is used for laser reflection scanning. The second lens 14 is installed at the end of the main housing 21 away from the first lens 11, which facilitates the replacement or adaptation of reflectors with different optical parameters. By placing the light source 40, the first position sensor 50, and the first lens 11 within the assembly cavity 24 formed by the main housing 21 and the first cover 23, modular packaging of the optical detection unit is achieved. The through groove 22 on the main housing 21 provides axial guidance and radial support for the motor shaft 10, ensuring that it rotates smoothly during high-speed deflection, reducing vibration and sway, thereby improving the repeatability of angle detection and the long-term working stability of the system.
[0030] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 3As shown, a circuit board 70 connects the main housing 21 and the first cover 23. The circuit board 70 has a first through hole 71. One end of the motor shaft 10 extends into the assembly cavity 24 through the first through hole 71 and connects to the first lens 11. The motor shaft 10, the first position sensor 50, and the light source 40 are electrically connected to the circuit board 70. The circuit board 70 is located at the connection between the main housing 21 and the first cover 23, utilizing the axial clearance originally used for sealing or connection, without occupying additional internal space in the assembly cavity 24. At the same time, the motor shaft 10 extends into the assembly cavity 24 through the first through hole 71 on the circuit board 70, realizing the movement of the moving parts within the stationary parts, improving the overall compactness of the structure. While realizing electrical functions, the circuit board 70 also serves as a reinforcing structure between the main housing 21 and the first cover 23, enhancing the overall rigidity of the housing 20.
[0031] Furthermore, such as Figures 4 to 5 As shown, the edge of the first cover 23 is provided with a first cavity 25, which provides a dedicated installation space for the first position sensor 50, enabling the positioning and protection of the first position sensor 50. The first position sensor 50 is connected to the first cavity 25 to ensure its fixation within the assembly cavity 24. The first cavity 25 is provided with a first sensing port 26 and a first connecting hole 27, which are respectively connected to the first cavity 25. The first sensing port 26 is connected to the assembly cavity 24, allowing a transmitted light beam to enter the first cavity 25 from the assembly cavity 24 and illuminate the first signal receiving surface 51 through the first sensing port 26. The position of the first sensing port 26 corresponds to the first signal receiving surface 51. The first sensing port 26 extends circumferentially along the assembly cavity 24 to increase the range of the light-gathering opening and adapt to the trajectory change of the transmitted light spot when the first lens 11 rotates. The first connecting hole 27 is set facing the circuit board 70 to facilitate docking with the circuit board 70 below. The first position sensor 50 is electrically connected to the circuit board 70 through the first connecting hole 27, so that the first position sensor 50 and the circuit board 70 can be connected at a relatively short distance.
[0032] Furthermore, such as Figures 4 to 5 As shown, the edge of the first cover 23 is provided with a second cavity, and the light source 40 is connected to the second cavity, providing a dedicated installation space for the light source 40 and enabling its positioning and protection. The second cavity has a light-emitting port 29 and a second connecting hole 30 that are respectively connected to the second cavity. The light-emitting port 29 is connected to the assembly cavity 24, and the position of the light-emitting port 29 corresponds to that of the light-emitting surface 41, allowing the light beam emitted from the light source 40 to enter the assembly cavity 24 and illuminate the first lens 11. The second connecting hole 30 is positioned facing the circuit board 70, and the light source 40 is electrically connected to the circuit board 70 through the second connecting hole 30, enabling the power supply and control signal access of the light source 40 with a short path and high reliability.
[0033] Furthermore, such as Figures 2 to 3As shown, one end of the motor shaft 10 that extends into the assembly cavity 24 is connected to a lens clamp 15. The lens clamp 15 is provided with a lens clamping groove 16, which provides a mounting space for limiting the first lens 11, for accommodating and fixing the first lens 11. The first lens 11 is connected to the lens clamping groove 16 to achieve positioning of the first lens 11. The motor shaft 10 drives the first lens 11 to rotate synchronously through the lens clamp 15.
[0034] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the housing 20 also includes a second cover 34, which is connected to the end of the main housing 21 away from the first cover 23. The second cover 34, the main housing 21, and the first cover 23 together constitute a closed housing 20, improving overall rigidity and sealing. The second cover 34 is provided with a second through hole 35, through which one end of the motor shaft 10 extends out of the housing 20 and connects to the second lens 14, allowing the motor shaft 10 to pass through the housing 20 to achieve external functional connection and undertake the task of reflecting the main beam.
[0035] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a second position sensor 60 is connected to the circuit board 70, and the second position sensor 60 is connected to the assembly cavity 24. The light source 40, the first position sensor 50, and the second position sensor 60 are arranged sequentially along the circumference of the housing 20. The first position sensor 50 independently acquires lens angle information through the displacement of the transmitted light spot, and the first position sensor 50 and the second position sensor 60 form a dual-channel angle feedback. When the second position sensor 60 causes data abnormalities due to contamination, failure, or signal interruption, the first position sensor 50 can serve as a backup signal source to maintain the basic operation of the system. At the same time, the assembly alignment of the second position sensor 60 and the motor shaft 10 can be performed based on the feedback from the first position sensor 50.
[0036] As one embodiment, such as Figures 2 to 3 As shown, the first lens 11 is a planar optical glass substrate with a thickness of 0.5–2.0 mm, such as quartz glass. A beam-splitting film is deposited on one of its surfaces. This film achieves 50% reflection and 50% transmission at specific wavelengths, such as 850 nm, 905 nm, and 1550 nm. Of course, it can also be set to 70% reflection and 30% transmission, 30% reflection and 70% transmission, etc., depending on the requirements. When a beam of light is incident on the surface of the film at a certain incident angle, such as 45°, part of it is reflected and the other part is transmitted through.
[0037] The assembly and adjustment methods are as follows: Step 1: Initial installation. Fix the second position sensor 60 in the preset position and initially install the first lens 11 on the motor shaft 10. There may be slight attitude deviations (tilt or eccentricity). Step 2: Turn on the light source and collect the transmitted light spot on the first position sensor 50. The light source 40 emits a parallel beam of light and illuminates the first lens 11. Part of the beam of light is transmitted and received by the first position sensor 50 to form a transmitted light spot. If the lens is not at the ideal zero point, the light spot will deviate from the center. The offset is recorded as d, where the unit of d is mm or pixels. Step 3: Establish the mapping relationship between offset d and lens angle θ; it has been calibrated before leaving the factory: θ=k*d (k is a proportionality coefficient, determined by optical parameters), the system calculates the actual lens deflection angle θ based on the current offset d; Step 4: Control the motor to fine-tune the shaft angle; send a fine-tuning command to the motor to drive the motor shaft 10 to rotate by a compensation angle –θ, and the first lens 11 will return to the center and approach the preset zero point position; Step 5: Simultaneously monitor the direction of the reflected beam. Another part of the beam is reflected by the first lens 11 and projected onto the photosensitive surface of the second position sensor 60. When the first lens 11 approaches the ideal zero point, the reflected beam gradually tends to be perpendicular to the photosensitive surface of the second sensor. At this point, the light spot is centered, the energy is concentrated, and the response linearity is optimal.
[0038] Step 6: Lock the assembly state. When the first position sensor 50 measures d≈0 (i.e., the light spot is located in the center), it is determined that the first lens 11 is at the ideal zero point. At this time, the reflected beam is also perpendicularly incident on the second position sensor 60. Fix the motor shaft 10 or the lens clamp 15 structure to complete the assembly.
[0039] During assembly, the offset d of the transmitted light beam spot is detected by the first position sensor 50, and a feedback signal is generated based on the offset. The control system adjusts the rotation angle of the motor shaft 10 according to the feedback signal until the light spot is located in the center area of the first position sensor 50. At this time, the first lens 11 is at a preset zero point position, and the light beam reflected to the second position sensor 60 is perpendicularly incident on its photosensitive surface, thereby ensuring that the output of the second position sensor 60 has good linearity. The offset d is linearly related to the deflection angle of the first lens 11. This linear relationship is obtained through factory calibration and stored in the control system of the circuit board 70.
[0040] As one embodiment, the second position sensor 60 may be an encoder, a Hall sensor, a reflective PSD, etc.
[0041] In one embodiment, the first position sensor is a silicon photodiode.
[0042] In one embodiment, the first position sensor 50 and the second position sensor 60 are arranged perpendicularly to each other.
[0043] Furthermore, such as Figures 4 to 5As shown, the edge of the first cover 23 is provided with a third cavity 31, which provides a dedicated installation space for the second position sensor 60, enabling the positioning and protection of the second position sensor 60. The second position sensor 60 is connected to the third cavity 31 to ensure its stable posture. The third cavity 31 is provided with a second sensing port 32 and a third connecting hole 33, which are respectively connected to the third cavity 31. The second sensing port 32 is connected to the assembly cavity 24, allowing the reflected light beam to enter the third cavity 31 and illuminate the second signal receiving surface 61. The position of the second sensing port 32 corresponds to the second signal receiving surface 61. The second sensing port 32 extends circumferentially along the assembly cavity 24 to adapt to the trajectory change of the reflected light spot when the first lens 11 rotates. The third connecting hole 33 is set towards the circuit board 70, and the second position sensor 60 is electrically connected to the circuit board 70 through the third connecting hole 33. The setting of the third connecting hole 33 towards the circuit board 70 allows the pins or flexible wires of the second position sensor 60 to directly connect to the pads of the circuit board 70 through the third connecting hole 33, resulting in a short trace path.
[0044] In one embodiment, the third cavity 31 is configured to correspond in shape to the second position sensor 60.
[0045] In one embodiment, the distance between the first position sensor 50 and the second position sensor 60 and the axis of the motor shaft 10 is set to 4mm-8mm.
[0046] In summary, this utility model embodiment provides a galvanometer motor, including a housing 20, a motor, a motor shaft 10, a light source 40, a first lens 11, and a first position sensor 50. The motor is connected to the housing 20, and the motor's rotation output end is connected to the motor shaft 10; the first lens 11 and the second lens 14 are respectively fixed to both ends of the motor shaft 10, and the first lens 11 and the second lens 14 rotate synchronously with the motor shaft 10; the light source 40 and the first position sensor 50 are located at the same end of the housing 20, and the light source 40 and the first position sensor 50 are respectively arranged opposite to each other on both sides of the motor shaft 10; the first position sensor 50 is provided with a first signal receiving surface 51; the light source 40 is provided with a light emitting surface 41, the light emitting surface 41 is arranged facing the first signal receiving surface 51; the light source 40 is configured to emit a light beam, and the emitted light beam passes through the first lens 11 and is incident on the first signal receiving surface 51. The light source 40 is configured to emit a parallel light beam, which is emitted from the light-emitting surface 41. This beam illuminates the first lens 11 at a certain incident angle, and after refraction and transmission by the first lens 11, it exits. The exiting light is parallel to the incident light and produces a lateral displacement. This transmitted beam is incident on the first signal receiving surface 51 of the first position sensor 50. When the motor shaft 10 drives the first lens 11 to rotate, the incident angle changes, causing a corresponding change in the offset of the transmitted beam, thereby moving the position of the light spot on the photosensitive surface of the first position sensor 50. By pre-calibrating the correspondence between the light spot displacement and the lens deflection angle, an angle detection model is established in the control system to achieve real-time feedback of the position and speed of the motor shaft 10. This scheme uses a transmission optical path for angle detection. The light source 40 and the first position sensor 50 are both located on the same side of the housing 20, resulting in a simple optical path structure that is beneficial for system miniaturization and modular integration.
