Description

Optical zoom focusing lens, mechanical structure and optical structure thereof

Technical Field

The utility model belongs to the laser beam machining field especially relates to an optics zoom and focus camera lens and mechanical structure and optical structure thereof.

Background

In the laser processing process, in order to meet the processing process requirements of materials with different materials and different thicknesses, the size of a laser spot and the height position of the laser spot relative to a processing surface are often required to be adjusted according to the process requirements. The former is called zooming, which is realized by changing the focal length of an optical system in the equipment, and only changes the size of a light spot without changing the position of the light spot; the latter is called focusing and does not change the spot size but only the spot position. In a laser processing system, a laser optical lens system generally adopts a combination structure of a collimating lens and a focusing lens, that is, the collimating lens converts light emitted from a light source into parallel light, and the focusing lens focuses the parallel light on a working surface. The structure design is flexible, and the monitoring system and the auxiliary system for scanning and vibrating the light beam can be conveniently introduced into the parallel light paths of the monitoring system and the light beam, so that the functions of the equipment can be expanded. In the existing combined structure of the collimating lens and the focusing lens, the focusing method is to move the position of the focusing lens, and to add a small focal power lens in front of the focusing lens or the collimating lens, and to focus by adjusting the position of the lens. The zoom function can be realized on the collimating lens and also on the focusing lens. Zooming and focusing are two independent systems, one implemented separately.

Fig. 1A and 1B are schematic structural diagrams of a typical conventional zoom optical system, including: a collimating lens group LC, a zooming and beam expanding system consisting of a fixed lens group LG, a zooming lens group LT and a compensating lens group LB, and a focusing lens group LF. In the system, a compound collimating lens system is formed by a collimating lens group and a zooming beam expanding group, so that the focal length change is realized.

The power of light processed by a laser processing zoom lens optical system varies from several kilowatts to several ten-thousand watts according to different applications, and the optical system has the following problems:

1. if the laser optical system employs a zoom optical system, it is extremely expensive. In addition to the complexity of the design, aspheric mirrors are often used in large numbers to reduce the number of lenses and to ensure image quality, for example: the national engineering research center of Huazhong university of science and technology, Gejiaqi et al (2 nd 2019 of the Chinese optical science) provides a lens design of 7 lenses, and 3 aspherical mirrors are adopted in the design; shanghai Jiaqiang automation technology company provides a technical scheme of 4 lenses (Chinese patent application number CN201510566726.6), and 3 aspheric lenses are adopted. Due to the difficulty of processing the aspherical mirror, the laser lens must be very expensive.

2. Because the optical glass material has material absorption and scattering, the light absorbed by the lens directly causes the temperature rise of the lens, and the scattered light is used as stray light to heat devices and a shell in a closed cavity of the optical system. In order to reduce the thermal lens effect caused by the temperature rise caused by the absorption of the material, expensive high-purity glass material is adopted.

3. The level of scattered light of the current high-power film is not less than 0.2% due to the imperfect coating technology of the optical lens, which means that the stray light generated by each single glass lens is not less than 0.4%, and obviously, the increase of the number of glass lenses in the optical system means the increase of the stray light generating heat. For example, if the laser power is ten thousand watts and the heating stray light generated by each lens is 40 watts, an optical system composed of 7 lenses needs at least one protective glass, and the power of the heating stray light in the optical system is at least 320 watts. In order to remove the heat from these parasitic lights, the cooling system must be carefully designed, which can reduce the reliability of the optical system if the cooling effect is not good.

In a laser processing zoom focusing lens, a mechanical system for ensuring the function of an optical system to be realized must carefully solve the thermal problem brought by the optical system in high-power application, and the problems of the existing structure are as follows:

the mechanical structure and method for realizing the relative movement of the lenses in the zoom lens are as follows: the lenses are fixed on respective lens frames, the lens frames are connected with the guide rail by the linear bearing, and then the lenses are driven to realize relative motion by the cam erected on the bearing, so that the aim of zooming is achieved. The specific structure can be seen in the technical scheme disclosed in Chinese patent application No. 201910637898.6.

In a laser optical system, due to absorption and scattering of a lens material and light scattering caused by imperfect coating on a lens surface, the temperature of a lens and a lens frame sealed in a cam can be increased, the heat conduction characteristic of a linear bearing is poor, heat on the lens and the lens frame can be transferred to the cam only through air, the cam can also generate heat under the action of light, part of heat on the cam is transferred to a base through the bearing, and the other part of heat is transferred through air. The conventional structure either limits the power of the zoom lens due to poor heat dissipation, or causes poor reliability of the optical system when used with high power, and in severe cases, causes performance degradation, such as thermal lens effect. Furthermore, this structure results in a mechanical system that is complex, difficult to install and large in size.
