Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of optical mirror barrel production technology, specifically relating to an optical mirror barrel production mold. Background Technology

[0002] An observation camera is a type of imaging device specifically designed for recording, measuring, and analyzing target objects. It is widely used in the aerospace field. An observation camera typically consists of an outer shell (and an optical mirror tube) and various components installed inside it. Among these, the optical mirror tube is the main load-bearing component of the observation camera, and its performance directly affects the camera's functionality. The traditional manufacturing method for the optical mirror tube mainly involves forming aluminum alloy sheets and then welding them, resulting in a relatively high weight. With the popularization of composite materials, composite materials have begun to be widely used in optical mirror tubes. After covering a frame with a skin, it is placed in a mold cavity and hot-pressed. Existing hot-press molds typically include an inner mold frame and an outer mold frame. When covering the skin, one layer of skin is first laid on the inner mold frame, then the frame is fitted in, another layer of skin is laid on top, and finally the outer mold frame is fitted in. This design makes it easy to scratch the unformed outer skin when fitting the outer mold frame, resulting in surface defects on the optical mirror tube after hot pressing, including wrinkles and damage.

[0003] Therefore, how to avoid defects on the surface of the optical mirror tube after hot pressing is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field.

[0004] It should be noted that the information disclosed in this background section is only for understanding the background technology of the present application concept, and therefore, the above description is not considered to constitute prior art information. Utility Model Content
