The embodiment of the invention provides a laser range finder, which is shown in a schematic structural diagram in fig. 3 and comprises a laser emitting device 100, an optical receiving component 200, an area array image sensor 300 and a processing unit (not shown in the figure), wherein the laser emitting device 100, the area array image sensor 200 and the optical receiving component 300 are sequentially arranged from top to bottom, and the area array image sensor 300 is electrically connected with the processing unit;
in the present embodiment, the laser emitting device 100 is configured to emit a first laser beam and a second laser beam, and irradiate the first laser beam and the second laser beam onto the surface of the object to be measured at a certain incident angle;
as an alternative of this embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the laser emitting apparatus 100 includes two laser heads 101, and the two laser emitters 110 respectively emit a first laser beam and a second laser beam, so that the first laser beam and the second laser beam irradiate onto a surface of an object to be measured at a certain incident angle, where the two laser emitters 110 may be symmetrically arranged, or the positional relationship between the two laser emitters 110 satisfies: after one of the laser emitters 110 rotates by a certain angle along a certain rotation axis from its position, the rotated position completely coincides with the position of the other laser emitter 110, that is, the positional relationship between the two laser emitters 110 needs to ensure that the first laser beam and the second laser beam satisfy a symmetric relationship, or that the first laser beam and the second laser beam satisfy: the first laser beam rotates a certain angle along a certain rotating shaft and then is completely coincided with the second laser beam;
as another alternative of this embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, the laser emitting device 100 includes a laser emitter 110 and a light splitting device 120, which are sequentially arranged from top to bottom, and the light splitting device 120 is configured to split laser emitted by the laser emitter 110 to form a first laser beam and a second laser beam, and irradiate the first laser beam and the second laser beam onto a surface of an object to be measured at a certain incident angle, where the first laser beam and the second laser beam satisfy: the first laser beam rotates a certain angle along a certain rotating shaft and then is completely coincided with the second laser beam; here, the case where the first laser beam and the second laser beam are symmetrical is included. In this embodiment, the light splitting device 120 mainly refers to a prism system or a mirror system, and further refer to fig. 6, which is a structural example of the light splitting device 120, and by this structural example, the laser emitted by the laser emitter 110 can be converted into two beams of laser, and of course, other similar structures capable of splitting laser can be adopted on the premise of the concept of the present invention.
In this embodiment, the optical receiving assembly 200 is configured to transmit the first laser beam and the second laser beam after scaling the laser reflected by the surface of the object to be measured, onto the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300, and form two reflected light spots on the photosensitive surface; specifically, the optical receiving assembly 200 is a lens assembly, and the magnification scaling is completed by a single aspheric mirror or a plurality of combined spherical mirrors, because the area of the area array image sensor 300 is limited in the present embodiment, a larger area of the area array image sensor 300 needs to be reduced to a smaller area of the area array image sensor 200 by the optical receiving assembly 200, so as to meet the range requirement of the laser range finder.
In the present embodiment, the size of the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 is adapted to the zoom ratio of the optical receiving component 200, the relative position of the area array image sensor 300 and the optical receiving component 200, and/or the range of the laser range finder, that is, the four parameters of the range of the laser range finder, the size of the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300, the zoom ratio of the optical receiving component 200, and the relative position of the area array image sensor 300 and the optical receiving component 200 are related to each other, and when two of the parameters are fixed, the change of one of the two parameters which are not fixed affects the other parameter; for example, when the size of the light-sensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 and the relative position of the area array image sensor 300 and the optical receiving component 200 are fixed, the range of the laser range finder will be related to the zoom ratio of the optical receiving component 200, and the larger the zoom ratio of the optical receiving component 200, the larger the range of the laser range finder. The optical receiving assembly 200 therefore, if the laser range finder is designed to be range-adjustable, the area array image sensor 300 can be correspondingly set to be a structure with adjustable magnification, or the area array image sensor 300 and the optical receiving assembly 200 can be set to be a structure with adjustable relative positions; it should be noted that the measurement accuracy is affected by the range of the laser range finder, and when the equivalent range is large, the accuracy is reduced, and at this time, the cost can be reduced by using a resin lens, the assembly process does not need to use a high-accuracy calibration table, the diameter of the lens is increased to increase the visual field range, and the placement position is adjusted to make the image in the whole range fall on the image sensor. Otherwise, a high-precision calibration table is needed for calibration, and small-size lenses and glass lenses are needed; further, the optical receiving assembly 200 may adopt different processes, different materials, different dimensions or installation positions according to the range of the laser range finder, for example, in the present embodiment, the optical receiving assembly 200 may be rotated for fine tuning the focal length to calibrate according to the individual difference of the lenses in the optical receiving assembly 200 to achieve the best performance.
As an alternative to the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 7, the area array image sensor 300 and the optical receiving assembly 200 are disposed in a non-perpendicular manner, and the optical receiving assembly employs an oblique lens, which is not perpendicular to the area array image sensor 300 but forms a certain angle with the area array image sensor 300, so that linearity of the measured distance can be ensured, and definition and resolution of the reflected light spot on the area array image sensor 300 can be ensured.
The processing unit is used for acquiring the relative distance between the two reflected light spots before and after the measured object moves, and acquiring the displacement of the measured object according to the incident angle and the relative distance between the two reflected light spots before and after the measured object moves; the specific processing procedure is explained in detail below; in this embodiment, the processing unit includes a data processor, a memory and related peripheral circuits, specifically integrates the functions of the current industrial camera circuit and the PC controller, and the processed data can be directly transmitted to each platform such as a computer, a PLC, a single chip microcomputer, and the like.
Based on the laser range finder described in the foregoing embodiment, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a laser range finding method, as shown in the flowchart illustrated in fig. 8 and the schematic laser path diagram illustrated in fig. 9, where the method includes:
s1, irradiating the first laser beam and the second laser beam to the surface of the object to be measured at a certain incident angle θ, wherein the first laser beam and the second laser beam form two reflection spots on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 after being reflected by the surface of the object to be measured and being scaled by the magnification of the optical receiving assembly 200; the incident angle theta is a preset constant, the first laser beam rotates for a certain angle along a specific rotating shaft and can be superposed with the second laser beam, and the rotating shaft is vertical to the surface of the object to be measured; s2, acquiring position coordinates of the two reflection light spots on the photosensitive surface, and obtaining the relative distance d1 of the two reflection light spots according to the position coordinates;
s3, acquiring the position coordinates of the two reflected light spots on the photosensitive surface after the measured object is displaced, and obtaining the relative distance d2 of the two reflected light spots according to the changed position coordinates; when the object to be measured is displaced in the axial direction of the rotating shaft, the positions of the two reflected light spots on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 change correspondingly;
s4, obtaining the displacement of the object to be measured in the axial direction of the rotating shaft according to the incidence angle theta and the relative distance d1 and d 2.
The above steps are explained in detail below, and specifically, in the present embodiment, the first laser beam and the second laser beam in step S1 satisfy: the first laser beam can be coincided with the second laser beam by rotating along a specific rotating shaft by a certain angle, and the rotating shaft is vertical to the surface of the measured object; here, the case where the first laser beam and the second laser beam are symmetrical is included; when the object to be measured is displaced in the axial direction of the rotating shaft, the position of the reflected light spot on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 changes correspondingly;
for the generation form of the first laser beam and the second laser beam, the first laser beam and the second laser beam with the incident angle θ can be respectively emitted by two laser emitters 110, or one laser beam is emitted by one laser emitter 110, and then the first laser beam and the second laser beam with the incident angle θ are formed by the light splitting device 120; before the first laser beam and the second laser beam are irradiated to the surface of the measured object at a certain incident angle theta, the measured object is placed on one side of a laser light outlet of the laser range finder, and the upper surface of the measured object is positioned on a measuring reference surface, as shown in fig. 9, assuming that the measuring reference surface is at the position of position 1, the measured object moves from the measuring reference surface to the laser range finder or moves away from the laser range finder, and the moving distance of the measured object can be obtained by the laser range finder in real time within the range of the laser range finder;
further, the first laser beam and the second laser beam may form a light spot on the surface of the object to be measured, as shown in A, A ', B, and B' marked in fig. 9, where a is a center of the light spot formed on the surface of the object to be measured by the first laser beam when the object to be measured is located at the initial position, B is a center of the light spot formed on the surface of the object to be measured by the second laser beam when the object to be measured is located at the initial position, a 'is a center of the light spot formed on the surface of the object to be measured by the first laser beam after the object to be measured moves, and B' is a center of the light spot formed on the surface of the object to be measured by the second laser beam after the object to be measured moves, and the laser reflected by the surface of the object to be measured is transmitted to the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 after being scaled by the magnification of the optical receiving assembly 200 to form a reflected light, C ', D, and D', wherein C is the center of a reflected light spot formed on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 by the first laser beam when the object to be measured is located at the initial position, D is the center of a reflected light spot formed on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 by the second laser beam when the object to be measured is located at the initial position, C 'is the center of a reflected light spot formed on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 by the first laser beam after the object to be measured moves, and D' is the center of a reflected light spot formed on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 by the second laser beam after the object to be measured moves; in the displacement measurement process, measurement data can be obtained by acquiring the position coordinates of the centers C, C ', D, and D' of the reflected light spots, and the displacement of the measured object is obtained.
Referring to fig. 10 together, fig. 10 is a schematic diagram illustrating the operation principle of the laser range finder, when the position of the measured object is changed from position 1 to position 2, the relative distance between the two spots formed on the measured object by the first laser beam and the second laser beam is transformed from D1 to D2, and the relative distance between the reflected spots on the area array image sensor 300 is transformed from D1 to D2, because the changed curvature is constant, the following equation is satisfied:
(D1-D2)=p(d1-d2);
wherein p is a scaling factor, which is a constant related to the scaling factor of the optical receiving device 200, and the mapping table of the scaling factor of the optical receiving device 200 and p can be configured, and when the scaling factor of the optical receiving device 200 is constant, the value of p can be obtained from the mapping table;
assuming that the distance change of the measured object from position 1 to position 2 is a displacement DXSame displacement DXThe difference between D1 and D2 is in a certain proportional relation, and the proportionality constant is q, and the following equation is given:
DX=q(D1-D2);
the method comprises the following steps that a mapping table of q and theta can be configured, wherein q is a constant related to the incident angles theta of a first laser beam and a second laser beam, and the numerical value of q can be obtained from the mapping table of q and theta according to the set incident angle theta;
thus, the displacement D of the measured object from position 1 to position 2XThe reality can be represented by the following formula:
DX=pq(d1-d2);
the actual displacement of the object to be measured can be calculated by calculating the variation of the relative positions of the two reflected light spots on the area array image sensor 300, and the variation of the relative positions of the two reflected light spots is obtained by the position coordinates of the centers of the reflected light spots, and refer to fig. 11, which is a schematic diagram illustrating the movement of the reflected light spots on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300, and the reflected light spots formed by the first laser beam and the second laser beam on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 are called as reflected light spot 1 and reflected light spot 2, respectively, when the object to be measured is from position 1 to position 2, the center position of the reflected light spot 1 is moved from C to C',the corresponding moving distance is a1, the center position of the reflection spot 2 moves from D to D ', the corresponding moving distance is a2, the relative distance between C and D is D1, the relative distance between C ' and D ' is D2, the values of a1, a2, D1 and D2 can be obtained based on the position coordinates of the reflection spot center C, C ', D and D ', and then the value of D1, a2, D1 and D2 can be obtainedXThe displacement amount of the object to be measured can be obtained by pq (d1-d 2).
As mentioned above, the first laser beam and the second laser beam satisfy that the incident first laser beam can be rotated by a certain angle along a specific rotation axis to coincide with the incident second laser beam, which includes the case that the first laser beam and the second laser beam are symmetric, however, the relationship between the movement tracks of the reflection spot 1 and the reflection spot 2 on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 is different between the case that the first laser beam and the second laser beam are symmetric and the movement tracks of the reflection spot 1 and the reflection spot 2 on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 are on a straight line when the first laser beam and the second laser beam are symmetric, as shown in fig. 11;
when the incident first laser beam rotates a certain angle along a specific rotation axis and can coincide with the incident second laser beam, and the first laser beam and the second laser beam are asymmetric, the movement tracks of the reflection spot 1 and the reflection spot 2 on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 will be parallel to each other, as shown in fig. 12, in this embodiment, when the object to be measured is displaced in the axial direction of the rotation axis, the movement tracks of the two reflection spots on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 are not overlapped and are parallel to each other, there is a case that when the movement tracks of the reflection spot 1 and the reflection spot 2 on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 are on a straight line, there is a possibility that the spot centers of the reflection spot 1 and the reflection spot 2 cross the center line, as shown in fig. 13, which makes the positions of the reflection spot 1 and the reflection spot 2 to be exchanged, the position change can be recognized by further processing, so that the movement tracks of the reflection light spots 1 and 2 on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 are staggered, as shown in fig. 14, the recognition processing is not needed, the subsequent calculation processing is facilitated, meanwhile, the effective acquisition surface of the area array image sensor 300 can be utilized as much as possible, the measuring range of the laser range finder is maximized, of course, under the condition that the center of the light spots crosses the center line, the calculation formula is correspondingly changed, and the displacement calculation formula of the measured object is changed as follows:
DX=pq(d1+d2)。
in fact, due to various noises or other influencing factors, after the measured object is displaced, the reflected light spots formed by the two laser beams on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 may shake, possibly one of the reflected light spots shakes, or both of the reflected light spots shake, and certainly, the reflected light spots on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 may shake before the measured object moves, because the parameter involved in the displacement calculation is the relative distance between the two reflected light spots, in this embodiment, it may be assumed that the reflected light spots on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor do not shake before the measured object moves, and only the condition that the reflected light spots on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 shake after the movement is considered, specifically, the reflected light spots 1 and the reflected light spots 2 may shake in the same direction, The jitter of the reverse direction and the opposite direction is that the relative distance between the two reflected light spots deviates from the true value only when the two reflected light spots simultaneously generate the jitter of the reverse direction or the opposite direction, similarly, since the parameter participating in the displacement calculation is the relative distance between the two reflected light spots, the jitter condition of one reflected light spot can be considered only, and the other reflected light spot is considered as a reference datum point without the jitter, in this embodiment, the jitter of the reflected light spot 2 is considered only, the position of the reflected light spot 1 is taken as a reference datum, then the corresponding moving distances of the reflected light spot 1 and the reflected light spot 2 on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 are obtained, when the displacement sizes of the reflected light spot 1 and the reflected light spot 2 are not equal, the reflected light spot 2 is considered to be jittered, as shown in fig. 15, before the displacement of the measured object occurs, the light spot center of the reflected light spot 1 is located at the, the light spot center of the reflection light spot 2 is located at the position D, when the measured object is displaced, the light spot center of the reflection light spot 1 is located at the position C ', the light spot center of the reflection light spot 2 is originally located at the position D ', because the center of the jitter light spot is offset to the position D ', the relative distance between the reflection light spot 1 and the reflection light spot 2 is changed from D2 to D ' 2 when the measured object is displaced, the moving distance of the reflection light spot 1 is a1, the moving distance of the reflection light spot 2 is (a2+ D2-D ' 2), theoretically a1 is equal to a2, the deviation value generated by the jitter of the reflection light spot 1 is the absolute value of D2-D ' 2, when the absolute value of D2-D ' 2 is larger than the preset threshold value, the relative distance D ' 2 between C ' and D ' can be corrected according to the above deviation value, so that the relative distance D ' 2 between C ' and D ' tends to the true value D2, otherwise, the relative, by the method, the laser measurement precision can be greatly improved.
In this embodiment, the laser ranging method further includes adjusting the relative position and angle between the area array image sensor 300 and the optical receiving component to adjust the measuring range of the laser measuring instrument, so as to meet different scenes with different measuring requirements, and thus the application range of the laser measuring instrument can be effectively expanded; further, the laser ranging method provided in this embodiment further includes adjusting the incident angle θ, so that when the object to be measured is displaced within the adjusted measurement range, the positions of the two reflected light spots on the photosensitive surface of the area array image sensor 300 do not exceed the boundary of the photosensitive surface.
According to the laser ranging method and the laser range finder provided by the embodiment of the invention, a single measuring laser beam is changed into a double beam, and two beams of laser are projected on the surface of a measured object, so that two reflected light spots are formed on the area array image sensor 300, when the measured object moves, the actual displacement of the measured object is further obtained by obtaining the difference relative position of the two reflected light spots, and the mode can improve the anti-interference performance of the area array image sensor 300 by increasing the number of measuring points, thereby improving the measuring precision.
