Also, a plurality of coupling lenses are required in the coupling process.
The invention patent CN206369871U discloses a high-power RGB (red, green and blue) synthesized laser light source system, and particularly discloses that the system comprises a blue laser, a red laser, a green laser, a first coupling lens group, a second coupling lens group, a third coupling lens group, a fourth coupling lens group, a first dichroic mirror, a second dichroic mirror and a square dodging optical fiber, wherein the first dichroic mirror and the second dichroic mirror form an angle of 45 degrees with a laser beam of the blue laser, the second coupling lens group and the red laser are sequentially arranged right below the first dichroic mirror, the third coupling lens group and the green laser are sequentially arranged right below the second dichroic mirror, a laser beam emitted by an emitting end of the green laser faces the third coupling lens group and is reflected on the second dichroic mirror, and the reflected laser beam is emitted into the square dodging optical fiber. The system can combine three color lights to realize high-power white laser output. However, the system needs four coupling lens groups, wherein three coupling lens groups are arranged at the laser emitting end of each laser, and then the three color lights are converged and coupled into the optical fiber through the fourth coupling lens group. Each coupling lens group in the system is composed of two symmetrically arranged coupling lenses, and the prior art does not provide a coupling lens capable of efficiently coupling a plurality of beams of light into an optical fiber, but utilizes the existing lenses for combination. Moreover, the system needs to rely on more optical devices, and if uniform and efficient laser output is to be realized, the requirement on three coupling lens groups arranged at the exit end of the laser is high.

Referring to fig. 5, a multi-wavelength and multi-beam combination optical fiber coupling system includes a red laser 11, a green laser 12, a blue laser 13, a reflector 31 disposed at a laser exit end of the red laser 11, a first dichroic mirror 32 disposed at a laser exit end of the green laser 12, a second dichroic mirror 33 disposed at a laser exit end of the blue laser 13, a coupling lens 21 designed according to the above design method, and a transmission optical fiber 22. The reflecting mirror 31, the first dichroic mirror 32, the second dichroic mirror 33, the coupling lens 21, and the transmission fiber 22 are sequentially disposed on the same horizontal line from left to right, so that the red light emitted by the red laser 11 is reflected by the reflecting mirror 31, the green light emitted by the green laser 12 is reflected by the first dichroic mirror 32, the blue light emitted by the blue laser 13 is reflected by the second dichroic mirror 33 and collected on the same optical axis, and the red light, the green light, and the blue light beams are coupled to the transmission fiber 22 through the coupling lens 21. The system utilizes three lasers to emit Gaussian beams with different wavelengths, the beams are shaped and combined on the same optical axis through a reflecting mirror and a dichroic mirror respectively, then the beams enter a transmission optical fiber after being collimated and coupled through a coupling lens, and the combination is finished at the tail end of the optical fiber.
The red laser, the green laser and the blue laser all adopt LD lasers. The red laser, the green laser and the blue laser can be arranged above or below the optical axis.

In order to enable the laser emitted by the three lasers to be converged on the same optical axis after reflection, the reflecting mirror, the first dichroic mirror and the second dichroic mirror are obliquely arranged, and the angles of the laser emitting ends of the red laser, the green laser and the blue laser or the arrangement positions of the lasers can be adjusted according to requirements. For example, a red laser emits red light, which enters a reflector at an angle of 30 degrees and then reflects the red light horizontally. At this time, the red light emitted by the red laser and the light reflected by the first dichroic mirror form an angle of 60 degrees. Similarly, the red laser and the blue laser are arranged in the same way. Preferably, the red light emitted by the red laser 11 and the light reflected by the reflecting mirror 31 form a 90-degree included angle, the green light emitted by the green laser 12 and the light reflected by the first dichroic mirror 32 form a 90-degree included angle, and the blue light emitted by the blue laser 13 and the light reflected by the second dichroic mirror 33 form a 90-degree included angle.

The system also comprises a power control circuit which is respectively connected with the red laser, the green laser and the blue laser and used for controlling the light source power of the red laser, the green laser and the blue laser. The power control circuit comprises a control chip, a red light control branch, a green light control branch and a blue light control branch. The control chip is respectively connected with the red light control branch, the green light control branch and the blue light control branch, the red light control branch is connected with the red light laser, the green light control branch is connected with the green light laser, and the blue light control branch is connected with the blue light laser. The control chip is a single chip microcomputer chip. The red light control branch comprises a red light switch controller, and the red light switch controller is provided with a plurality of gear levels to respectively correspond to 0% -100% power selection. The green light control branch comprises a green light switch controller, and the green light switch controller is provided with a plurality of gear levels to respectively correspond to 0% -100% power selection. The blue light control branch comprises a blue light switch controller, and the blue light switch controller is provided with a plurality of gear levels to respectively correspond to 0% -100% power selection. The system controls the color of the emergent light through the power control circuit, and can generate light with different colors such as red, green, blue, white and the like. For example, if the gear of the red light switch controller is adjusted to 100%, and the gear of the green light switch controller and the gear of the blue light switch controller are adjusted to 0%, the color of the final emergent light is red light. For another example, if the gear of the red switch controller is adjusted to 35%, the gear of the green switch controller is adjusted to 100%, and the gear of the blue switch controller is adjusted to 15%, the color of the light emitted finally is white light.
