Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a laser irradiator with rolling mechanism, having an extremely simple configuration.SOLUTION: The rolling mechanism is formed by vertically stacking and arranging three spinning disks of a rough motion spinning disk 31, a rough motion gear disk 33, and a micromotion spinning disk 40, so as to suppress a height-directional dimension of a storage space of the rolling mechanism formed of a bottom wall 21 and a side wall 22 and decrease the number of components. Consequently, this configuration can reduce the height-directional dimension of a laser irradiator so as to miniaturize the size and further, the cost can be reduced by the decrease in the number of components.

Description

本発明は、建築工事や土木工事において使用される自動誘導式のレーザー照射器の回転機構に関するものであり、該レーザー照射器を、迅速、かつ正確に回転させて照射すべき方向へ向けようとするものである。   The present invention relates to a rotation mechanism of an automatically guided laser irradiator used in construction work or civil engineering work, and the laser irradiator is rotated quickly and accurately so as to be directed in a direction to be irradiated. To do.

構造物の側壁面や天井面あるいは床面などにレーザーラインを出力して表示する、いわゆるレーザー墨出し器には、出力されたレーザーラインが360°にわたって照射できるよう照射器本体の下端には回転機構が組み込まれており、作業者は、レーザー墨出し器を設置したのちに、この回転機構で照射器本体を手動で大まかに回転させ、さらに微動による調整にて目標とする場所に正確に合致させる手順を経て墨出しを行うようにしている。そして、このような墨出し作業においてレーザー照射器をリモートコントロールによって回転させることで、目標とする位置に予め配置した受光器でレーザー照射器から出力されたレーザーラインを検知したならば照射器の回転を自動的に停止させる自動誘導式のレーザー照射器装置が知られている。   In the so-called laser marking device that outputs and displays laser lines on the side wall surface, ceiling surface, floor surface, etc. of the structure, the lower end of the irradiator body is rotated so that the output laser line can be irradiated over 360 °. The mechanism is built in, and after installing the laser marking device, the operator manually rotates the irradiator body roughly manually with this rotating mechanism, and further precisely adjusts to the target location by fine adjustment The ink is put out through the procedure of making it happen. In such a marking operation, the laser irradiator is rotated by remote control, and if the laser line output from the laser irradiator is detected by a light receiver arranged in advance at the target position, the irradiator is rotated. An automatic guidance type laser irradiator device that automatically stops the operation is known.

自動誘導式のレーザー照射器装置においては、レーザー照射器を手動を回転させたときに、余計な負荷が駆動モータ等の駆動系にかからないように回転機構を工夫したものも提案されている(例えば、特許文献1)。   In the automatic induction type laser irradiator device, a device in which a rotation mechanism is devised so that an extra load is not applied to a drive system such as a drive motor when the laser irradiator is manually rotated has been proposed (for example, Patent Document 1).

特開2006−215019号公報(請求項1及び図2)JP 2006-215019 A (Claim 1 and FIG. 2)

上記した特許文献1に開示される技術は、回転機構として、レーザー照射器を直接連結して該レーザー照射器を支持するとともに手動で該レーザー照射器を回転させて大まかな位置決めを行う手動回転リング、該手動回転リングとともにレーザー照射器を直流モータによって高速で回転させる自動回転リング、該自動回転リングを回転するためのヘリカルギア、極めてわずかに回転させる手動微動リング、ステッピングモータによって低速で回転させて微動させる自動微動リング、という5つの回転盤を上から下に積層したものであり、手動に伴う力を手動回転リングのみに加わらせることにより、駆動系への負荷がかからないようにしたものである。しかし、上記技術の回転機構は、5つの回転盤を上下方向に積層しているため、回転機構を収納する収納空間が大きくなり、結果的にレーザー照射器が大型化すると共に部品数が多くコストが高くなるという欠点があった。   The technique disclosed in Patent Document 1 described above is a manual rotating ring that, as a rotating mechanism, supports a laser irradiator by directly connecting the laser irradiator and manually rotates the laser irradiator to perform rough positioning. , Automatic rotating ring that rotates the laser irradiator at high speed with a DC motor together with the manual rotating ring, helical gear for rotating the automatic rotating ring, manual fine movement ring that rotates very slightly, and rotating at low speed by a stepping motor It is an automatic fine movement ring that is finely moved and is laminated from the top to the bottom. By applying manual force only to the manual rotation ring, no load is applied to the drive system. . However, since the rotating mechanism of the above technique has five rotating disks stacked in the vertical direction, the storage space for storing the rotating mechanism becomes large, resulting in an increase in the size of the laser irradiator and a large number of parts and cost. There was a disadvantage that it became high.

本発明は、上記した事情に鑑みなされたもので、その目的とするところは、極めて簡単な構造の回転機構を備えたレーザー照射器を提供することにある。   The present invention has been made in view of the above-described circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a laser irradiator including a rotation mechanism having a very simple structure.

上記した課題を解決するために、請求項1に係る発明が採用した構成を図面を参照して説明すると、図1〜図4に示すように、レーザー照射ユニット4を載置固定して回転可能に保持する自動誘導式のレーザー照射器1の回転機構であって、前記回転機構は、底壁21と該底壁21の周囲から立ち上がる側壁22を有しその内側にて収納空間を区画形成する台座本体20と、この台座本体20内の収納空間内にて積層配置されそれぞれ個別に回転可能な複数の回転盤31,40と、からなり、前記複数の回転盤31,40は、前記レーザー照射ユニット4に直接連結して該レーザー照射ユニット4を支持するとともに該レーザー照射ユニット4を手動又は電動により回転させて大まかな位置決めを行う粗動回転盤31と、該粗動回転盤31の下部に当接位置する粗動歯車盤33と、該粗動歯車盤33の下部に当接位置して前記レーザー照射ユニット4を手動又は電動により回転させて微少な位置決めを行う微動回転盤40と、からなり、前記微動回転盤40には、前記粗動歯車盤33を介して前記粗動回転盤31を粗動回転させる粗動モータ44と、当該微動回転盤40を微動させる微動モータ48と、が設けられると共に、当該微動回転盤40を付勢バネ62によって一回転方向に付勢し、前記微動モータ48の回転軸に螺合雄ネジ49を固定すると共に該螺合雄ネジ49に螺合雌ネジ部材51を螺合させ、該螺合雌ネジ部材51の螺合部の反対側となる当接面52に前記付勢バネ62の付勢力により常時当接すると共に微調つまみ29を手動操作することにより前記微動回転盤40を微動させる微調シャフトネジ28を前記台座本体20に設け、前記レーザー照射ユニット4を手動で回転させたときに、前記粗動回転盤31と前記粗動歯車盤34との間ですべりが生じて前記粗動モータ44に負荷がかかることなく当該レーザー照射ユニット4を手動粗動回転させることができる一方、前記粗動モータ44を回転駆動させたときに、前記粗動歯車盤33と前記粗動回転盤31との間の摩擦力により前記レーザー照射ユニット4を電動粗動回転させることができ、前記微調つまみ29を手動で操作したときに、前記微調シャフトネジ28が前記当接面52と当接することにより前記微動回転盤40を前記付勢バネ62の付勢力により微動させると共に当該微動回転盤40の上部に位置する前記粗動歯車盤33及び前記粗動回転盤31も一緒に回転させて前記レーザー照射ユニット4を手動微動回転させることができる一方、前記微動モータ48を回転駆動させたときに、前記螺合雄ネジ49と前記螺合雌ネジ51との螺合により前記微動回転盤40を前記付勢バネ62の付勢力により微動させると共に当該微動回転盤40の上部に位置する前記粗動歯車盤33及び前記粗動回転盤31も一緒に回転させて前記レーザー照射ユニット4を電動微動回転させることができることを特徴とする。   In order to solve the above-described problem, the configuration adopted by the invention according to claim 1 will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the laser irradiation unit 4 can be mounted and fixed and rotated. The rotating mechanism of the automatic induction type laser irradiator 1 held by the rotating mechanism includes a bottom wall 21 and a side wall 22 that rises from the periphery of the bottom wall 21, and defines a storage space inside thereof. The pedestal main body 20 and a plurality of turntables 31 and 40 that are stacked in the storage space in the pedestal main body 20 and can be rotated individually, and the plurality of turntables 31 and 40 are provided with the laser irradiation. The coarse motion rotary disk 31 that is directly connected to the unit 4 to support the laser irradiation unit 4 and performs rough positioning by rotating the laser irradiation unit 4 manually or electrically, and the coarse motion rotary disk 31 A coarse gear wheel 33 that is in contact with the part, and a fine gear wheel 40 that is in contact with the lower part of the coarse gear wheel 33 and rotates the laser irradiation unit 4 manually or electrically for fine positioning. The fine movement rotating plate 40 includes a coarse movement motor 44 that coarsely rotates the coarse movement rotary plate 31 via the coarse movement gear plate 33, and a fine movement motor 48 that finely moves the fine movement rotary plate 40. The fine movement rotating plate 40 is urged in one rotation direction by the urging spring 62 to fix the screw male screw 49 to the rotating shaft of the fine motor 48 and to the screw male screw 49. The female thread member 51 is screwed together, and is always in contact with the contact surface 52 on the opposite side of the threaded portion of the screw female thread member 51 by the biasing force of the biasing spring 62 and the fine adjustment knob 29 is manually operated. By making the fine turntable A fine shaft screw 28 for finely moving 0 is provided on the pedestal main body 20, and when the laser irradiation unit 4 is manually rotated, a slip occurs between the coarse motion rotary plate 31 and the coarse motion gear plate 34. The laser irradiation unit 4 can be manually coarsely rotated without applying a load to the coarse motor 44, and when the coarse motor 44 is rotationally driven, the coarse gear wheel 33 and the coarse gear wheel 33 are rotated. The laser irradiation unit 4 can be electrically coarsely rotated by a frictional force with the dynamic rotating disk 31, and when the fine adjustment knob 29 is manually operated, the fine adjustment shaft screw 28 is in contact with the contact surface 52. The fine movement rotary disk 40 is finely moved by the urging force of the urging spring 62 by abutting, and the coarse gear wheel board 33 and the coarse movement located above the fine movement rotary disk 40. The rotating plate 31 can be rotated together to finely rotate the laser irradiation unit 4 manually. On the other hand, when the fine movement motor 48 is driven to rotate, the screwing male screw 49 and the screwing female screw 51 The fine rotation rotating disk 40 is finely moved by the urging force of the urging spring 62 and the coarse gear wheel 33 and the coarse rotation rotating disk 31 positioned above the fine movement rotating disk 40 are rotated together. The laser irradiation unit 4 can be electrically finely rotated.

また、請求項2に係る発明が採用した構成を図面を参照して説明すると、図2に示すように、前記粗動回転盤31と前記粗動歯車盤33との間に一定の粘度を有したグリスを塗り込み、前記レーザー照射ユニット4を手動で回転させたときのグリス抵抗が前記粗動モータ44のトルクよりも弱いように前記グリスの粘度を設定したことを特徴とする。   Further, the configuration adopted by the invention according to claim 2 will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIG. 2, there is a certain viscosity between the coarse rotary wheel 31 and the coarse gear wheel 33. The viscosity of the grease is set so that the grease resistance when the laser irradiation unit 4 is manually rotated is weaker than the torque of the coarse motor 44.

請求項1に係る発明においては、粗動回転盤31、粗動歯車盤33、及び微動回転盤40という3つの回転盤を上下方向に積層配置した回転機構としたので、底壁21と側壁22によって形成される回転機構の収納空間の高さ方向の寸法を抑制することができると共に部品数を少なくすることができ、結果的にレーザー照射器の高さ方向の寸法を小さくすることができ小型化を図ることができ、さらに部品数が少なくなることによってコストの低減を図ることができる。   In the invention according to the first aspect, since the rotary mechanism is formed by laminating and arranging the three rotary disks, the coarse rotary disk 31, the coarse gear wheel 33, and the fine rotary disk 40, in the vertical direction, the bottom wall 21 and the side wall 22 are provided. The size in the height direction of the storage space of the rotation mechanism formed by can be suppressed and the number of parts can be reduced, and as a result, the size in the height direction of the laser irradiator can be reduced. The cost can be reduced by reducing the number of parts.

また、請求項2に係る発明においては、レーザー照射ユニット4を手動で回転させたときのグリス抵抗が粗動モータ44のトルクよりも弱いようにグリスの粘度を設定したので、レーザー照射ユニット4の回転に伴って粗動回転盤31が回転しても、粗動歯車盤33がスリップして回転せず、粗動モータ44への負荷を低減することができる。   In the invention according to claim 2, the grease viscosity is set so that the grease resistance when the laser irradiation unit 4 is manually rotated is weaker than the torque of the coarse motor 44. Even if the coarse motion rotating disk 31 rotates with the rotation, the coarse gear wheel board 33 slips and does not rotate, and the load on the coarse motor 44 can be reduced.

The screw hole (not shown) formed at the lower end of 2 and the screw hole (not shown) formed at the lower end of the laser irradiation unit 4 are aligned with each other. The assembly of the laser irradiator 1 is completed by assembling the laser irradiation unit 4 including the main body cover 2 and the pedestal unit 5 while covering the fastening portion with the rubber ring 3. In this specification, when it is expressed that the laser irradiation unit 4 is rotated, the laser irradiation unit 4 covered with the main body cover 2 is often referred to.

ところで、本体カバー2を含むレーザー照射ユニット4が取り付けられる台座ユニット5は、予め組付けられているものであるが、その台座ユニット5は、図2に示すように、底壁21と該底壁21の周囲から立ち上がる側壁22を有しその内側にて収納空間を区画形成する台座本体20と、この台座本体20内の収納空間内にて積層配置されそれぞれ個別に回転可能な複数の回転盤31,33,40と、からなり、台座本体20の裏面にレーザー照射器1を支える複数の三脚24(図示の場合には、3本の三脚)が取り付けられている。この三脚24は、それぞれ高さ調節機能を有し、本体カバー2の上面外側に設けられる水準器を見ながらレーザー照射器1を水平に調節保持することができるようになっている。なお、上記の台座本体20と複数の回転盤31,33,40とが本発明の回転機構を構成するものである。   By the way, the pedestal unit 5 to which the laser irradiation unit 4 including the main body cover 2 is attached is assembled in advance. The pedestal unit 5 includes a bottom wall 21 and the bottom wall as shown in FIG.

The pedestal main body 20 and the plurality of turntables 31, 33, 40 constitute the rotation mechanism of the present invention.

台座本体20の底壁21には、そのほぼ中央に軸23が立設され、その軸23を挟んで2つの切欠開口25,26が開設されている。軸23には、複数の回転盤31,33,40が回転自在となるように軸支されると共に、その上端部に雄ネジ部が形成され、その雄ネジ部に複数の回転盤31,33,40が回転軸支された状態で止めネジ35を螺合することにより、複数の回転盤31,33,40が軸23から抜け落ちないように固定される。また、切欠開口25,26には、後述する粗動モータ44と微動モータ48の一部が受け入れられて底壁21の裏側に突出するようになっている。   On the bottom wall 21 of the pedestal main body 20, a shaft 23 is erected substantially at the center thereof, and two notch openings 25 and 26 are opened across the shaft 23. A plurality of turntables 31, 33, and 40 are pivotally supported on the shaft 23, and a male screw portion is formed at an upper end portion thereof, and the plurality of turntables 31, 33 are formed on the male screw portion. , 40 are fixedly supported so that they do not fall off the shaft 23 by screwing the set screw 35 with the rotary shaft supported. In addition, the notch openings 25 and 26 receive a part of a coarse motion motor 44 and a fine motion motor 48, which will be described later, and project to the back side of the bottom wall 21.

また、台座本体20には、微動モータ48の一部を受け入れる切欠開口26側の側壁22に微調シャフト取付ネジ穴27が形成され、この微調シャフト取付ネジ穴27に微調シャフトネジ28が螺合される。微調シャフトネジ28は、微調シャフト取付ネジ穴27の内周に形成される雌ネジ部に螺合するように、その外周に雄ネジ部が形成され、その外側端部に微調つまみ29が固定されている。この微調つまみ29を回転操作することにより微調シャフトネジ28が微調シャフト取付ネジ穴27と螺合しながら側壁22に対し進退し、微調シャフトネジ28の他端が後述する螺合雌ネジ部材51の当接面52に常時当接しながら微動回転盤40を手動微動回転させるようになっている。   The pedestal body 20 has a fine shaft mounting screw hole 27 formed in the side wall 22 on the side of the notch opening 26 that receives a part of the fine movement motor 48, and the fine shaft screw 28 is screwed into the fine shaft mounting screw hole 27.

The fine movement rotary disk 40 is rotated by manual fine movement while always in contact with the contact surface 52.

さらに、台座本体20には、自動誘導機能を制御するメイン基板30が軸23の側方の底壁21に固定されている。このメイン基板30は、前記電源スイッチ17をON操作することにより、前記垂直レーザー発振器15からレーザーラインを照射し、そのレーザーラインを受信する受信装置(図示しない)からの通信信号を後述する通信用センサ71で受信し、その受信に基づいて粗動モータ44又は微動モータ48を回転制御して、レーザーラインが所定の計測位置と一致するように回転機構を自動的に制御するものである。なお、本体カバー2の上面には、図示しないが上述した水準器の他に垂直レーザー発振器15又は水平レーザー発振器16のいずれか一方又は両方からレーザーラインを照射するか否かを選択する選択スイッチやレーザー発振モード切替スイッチ等が設けられている。なお、本実施形態では、電源スイッチ17をONしてメイン基板30の制御により、レーザー発振器15,16からレーザーラインを照射すると共に回転機構を駆動制御するものとして説明したが、レーザー発振器15,16を照射するためのスイッチ及び制御回路基板をレーザー照射ユニット4に設け、回転機構を駆動制御するためのスイッチ及び制御回路基板を台座本体20にそれぞれ別々に設けても良い。   Further, a main board 30 for controlling the automatic guidance function is fixed to the bottom wall 21 on the side of the shaft 23 in the base body 20. The main board 30 irradiates a laser line from the vertical laser oscillator 15 by turning on the power switch 17 and receives a communication signal from a receiving device (not shown) for receiving the laser line. The rotation is controlled by the sensor 71 so that the coarse movement motor 44 or the fine movement motor 48 is rotationally controlled based on the reception, and the rotation mechanism is automatically controlled so that the laser line coincides with a predetermined measurement position. A selection switch for selecting whether or not to irradiate a laser line from either one or both of the vertical laser oscillator 15 and the horizontal laser oscillator 16 in addition to the above-described level, though not shown, A laser oscillation mode switch or the like is provided.

また、台座本体20の軸23に挿通される複数の回転盤として、最上部にレーザー照射ユニット4に直接連結して該レーザー照射ユニット4を支持するとともに該レーザー照射ユニット4を手動又は電動により回転させて大まかな位置決めを行う粗動回転盤31と、該粗動回転盤31の下部に当接位置する粗動歯車盤33と、該粗動歯車盤33の下部に当接位置してレーザー照射ユニット4を手動又は電動により回転させて微少な位置決めを行う微動回転盤40と、がある。粗動回転盤31、粗動歯車盤33、及び微動回転盤40には、それぞれ軸穴32,34,41が開設され、該軸穴32,34,41を軸23に遊嵌した後に、止めネジ35を螺合することにより、粗動回転盤31、粗動歯車盤33、及び微動回転盤40が軸23に抜け落ちないように回転自在に軸支されるものである。そして、粗動回転盤31と粗動歯車盤33との間には、一定の粘度を有したグリスが塗り込まれている。このグリスの粘度は、レーザー照射ユニット4を手動で回転させたときのグリス抵抗が粗動モータ44のトルクよりも弱いように設定されている。   Further, as a plurality of rotating disks inserted through the shaft 23 of the pedestal main body 20, the laser irradiation unit 4 is directly connected to the uppermost portion to support the laser irradiation unit 4, and the laser irradiation unit 4 is rotated manually or electrically. The coarse rotating wheel 31 for rough positioning, the coarse gear wheel 33 that is in contact with the lower part of the coarse rotating wheel 31, and the laser irradiation that is in contact with the lower part of the coarse gear wheel 33 There is a fine-movement rotating plate 40 that performs fine positioning by rotating the unit 4 manually or electrically. Coarse rotary disk 31, coarse gear wheel 33, and fine rotary disk 40 are provided with shaft holes 32, 34, and 41, respectively, and after the shaft holes 32, 34, and 41 are loosely fitted to shaft 23, they are stopped. By screwing the screws 35, the coarse motion rotary disk 31, the coarse motion gear board 33, and the fine motion rotary disk 40 are rotatably supported so as not to fall off the shaft 23. And between the coarse motion rotating disk 31 and the coarse motion gear board 33, grease having a certain viscosity is applied. The viscosity of the grease is set so that the grease resistance when the laser irradiation unit 4 is manually rotated is weaker than the torque of the coarse motion motor 44.

また、台座本体20の上部は、円形の開口窓37を有する蓋カバー36によって覆われている。蓋カバー36の開口窓37は、レーザー照射ユニット4と粗動回転盤31とを連結するために開設されるものであり、前述したように、本体カバー2で覆う前のレーザー照射ユニット4の下端面に形成されるビス穴(図示しない)と粗動回転盤31の上面に形成されるビス穴(図2に示すが符号はなし)とを一致させてビスで止着することによりレーザー照射ユニット4と粗動回転盤31とを連結する。したがって、本体カバー2を含むレーザー照射ユニット4を手動で回転させたときに、粗動回転盤31も回転することになる。ただし、粗動回転盤31と粗動歯車盤33との間には、一定の粘度を有したグリスが塗り込まれているものの、そのグリスの粘度による抵抗が粗動モータ44のトルクよりも小さく設定されているので、該粗動モータ44の回転軸に固着される歯車45と噛み合っている粗動歯車盤33が粗動回転盤31の手動回転に伴って回転することはなく、粗動歯車盤33と粗動回転盤31との間ですべりが生ずる。このため、レーザー照射ユニット4の手動回転に伴う負荷が粗動モータ44等の駆動源に大きく影響することはなく、粗動モータ44への負荷を低減することができる。   The upper portion of the pedestal main body 20 is covered with a lid cover 36 having a circular opening window 37. The opening window 37 of the lid cover 36 is opened to connect the laser irradiation unit 4 and the coarse motion rotary disk 31 and, as described above, below the laser irradiation unit 4 before being covered with the main body cover 2. The laser irradiation unit 4 is formed by aligning a screw hole (not shown) formed on the end face with a screw hole (not shown) shown in FIG. And coarse motion rotating disk 31 are coupled. Therefore, when the laser irradiation unit 4 including the main body cover 2 is manually rotated, the coarse motion rotary disk 31 is also rotated. However, although grease having a certain viscosity is applied between the coarse motion rotary disk 31 and the coarse gear wheel board 33, the resistance due to the viscosity of the grease is smaller than the torque of the coarse motor 44. Thus, the coarse gear wheel 33 that meshes with the gear 45 fixed to the rotation shaft of the coarse motor 44 does not rotate with the manual rotation of the coarse roller 31, and the coarse gear Slip occurs between the board 33 and the coarse rotary disk 31. For this reason, the load accompanying the manual rotation of the laser irradiation unit 4 does not significantly affect the drive source such as the coarse motion motor 44, and the load on the coarse motion motor 44 can be reduced.

逆に、粗動モータ44を回転駆動させたときには、粗動モータ44の回転軸に固着された歯車45と粗動歯車盤33との噛合により粗動歯車盤33が回転し、その粗動歯車盤33の上部に載置している粗動回転盤31も摩擦力(グリスの粘度抵抗に相当する摩擦力)により回転し、該粗動回転盤31に連結されるレーザー照射ユニット4も電動粗動回転することになる。なお、粗動モータ44は、正逆回転可能なステッピングモータが使用されており、比較的高速でレーザー照射ユニット4を回転させることができるようになっている。   On the contrary, when the coarse motor 44 is driven to rotate, the coarse gear wheel 33 is rotated by the meshing of the gear 45 fixed to the rotation shaft of the coarse motor 44 and the coarse gear wheel 33, and the coarse gear gear is rotated. The coarse motion rotating disk 31 mounted on the upper portion of the panel 33 is also rotated by frictional force (friction force corresponding to the viscosity resistance of grease), and the laser irradiation unit 4 connected to the coarse motion rotating disk 31 is also electrically roughened. It will rotate dynamically. Note that the coarse motion motor 44 uses a stepping motor that can rotate forward and reverse, and can rotate the laser irradiation unit 4 at a relatively high speed.

次に、粗動歯車盤33の下部に当接位置して軸23に回転自在に軸支される微動回転盤40の詳細な構造について図3及び図4を参照して説明する。微動回転盤40には、粗動歯車盤33を介して粗動回転盤31を粗動回転させる粗動モータ44と、当該微動回転盤40を微動させる微動モータ48と、が設けられている。より具体的には、微動回転盤40は、その中心に軸23が挿通される軸穴41が形成されると共に該軸穴41の外周に粗動歯車盤33の下面と当接する載置当接面42が僅かに隆起して形成されており、その載置当接面42の一側側方に粗動モータ44を取り付ける粗動モータ取付部43が延設され、該粗動モータ取付部43の反対側に微動モータ48を取り付ける微動モータ取付部47が延設されている。また、粗動モータ取付部43と微動モータ取付部47とを結ぶ線に直交する方向の載置当接面42の側方にセンサユニット取付部60及びバネ取付部61が延設されている。センサユニット取付部60には、後述する回転位置検出ユニット56がビス59によって取り付けられ、バネ取付部61には、後述する付勢バネ62の一端が止着されるようになっている。なお、微動モータ48は、正逆回転可能なステッピングモータが使用されており、比較的低速でレーザー照射ユニット4を回転させることができるようになっている。   Next, the detailed structure of the fine-motion rotating disc 40 that is in contact with the lower portion of the coarse gear plate 33 and is rotatably supported by the shaft 23 will be described with reference to FIGS. The fine movement rotary disk 40 is provided with a coarse movement motor 44 that coarsely rotates the coarse movement rotary disk 31 via the coarse movement gear board 33, and a fine movement motor 48 that finely moves the fine movement rotary disk 40. More specifically, the fine rotation rotating plate 40 has a shaft hole 41 through which the shaft 23 is inserted at the center thereof, and a mounting contact that contacts the lower surface of the coarse gear wheel plate 33 on the outer periphery of the shaft hole 41. The surface 42 is formed to be slightly raised, and a coarse motor mounting portion 43 for attaching the coarse motor 44 is provided on one side of the mounting contact surface 42, and the coarse motor mounting portion 43. A fine movement motor attachment portion 47 for attaching the fine movement motor 48 is extended on the opposite side. Further, a sensor unit mounting portion 60 and a spring mounting portion 61 are extended to the side of the mounting contact surface 42 in a direction orthogonal to the line connecting the coarse motor mounting portion 43 and the fine motor mounting portion 47. A rotational position detection unit 56, which will be described later, is attached to the sensor unit attaching part 60 by screws 59, and one end of a biasing spring 62, which will be described later, is fixed to the spring attaching part 61. The fine movement motor 48 uses a stepping motor that can rotate forward and backward, and can rotate the laser irradiation unit 4 at a relatively low speed.

粗動モータ取付部43にビス46で粗動モータ44が取り付けられた状態においては、粗動モータ44の本体部分が微動回転盤40の下方に突出するように取り付けられ、粗動モータ44の回転軸に固着された歯車45が微動回転盤40の上方に位置するようになっている。また、微動モータ取付部47にビス50で微動モータ48が取り付けられた状態においては、微動モータ48の回転軸に固着された螺合雄ネジ49が水平方向に向くように取り付けられている。螺合雄ネジ49には、螺合雌ネジ部材51が螺合されている。螺合雌ネジ部材51には、その螺合部の反対側に当接面52が形成されると共に、螺合部と直交する方向に検出片53が延設され、その検出片53の下部に螺合部と平行となるように微動回転盤40に立設される係合棒55と係合する係合溝54が形成されている。検出片53は、前記センサユニット取付部60にビス59によって取り付けられる回転位置検出ユニット56に設けられる一対の投受光センサ57,58によって検出されるものである。即ち、回転位置検出ユニット56に設けられる投受光センサ57,58は、図3及び図4に示すように、上下に投光器と受光器とからなる投受光センサを前後方向に所定間隔離して設けたものであり、検出片53が上下の投光器と受光器との間に進入したことを検出することにより微動モータ48の回転駆動により螺合雄ネジ49と螺合雌ネジ部材51との螺合度合いの上限と下限とを検出するようになっている。   In the state where the coarse motor 44 is attached to the coarse motor mounting portion 43 with the screw 46, the coarse motor 44 is attached so that the main body portion protrudes below the fine motion rotary disk 40, and the coarse motor 44 rotates. A gear 45 fixed to the shaft is positioned above the fine rotation rotating disk 40. Further, in a state where the fine movement motor 48 is attached to the fine movement motor mounting portion 47 with the screw 50, the screwed male screw 49 fixed to the rotating shaft of the fine movement motor 48 is attached so as to face in the horizontal direction. A screwed female screw member 51 is screwed onto the screwed male screw 49. The screwed female screw member 51 has a contact surface 52 formed on the opposite side of the screwed portion, and a detection piece 53 extending in a direction orthogonal to the screwed portion. An engagement groove 54 that engages with an engagement rod 55 that is erected on the fine movement rotary disk 40 is formed so as to be parallel to the screwing portion. The detection piece 53 is detected by a pair of light projecting / receiving sensors 57 and 58 provided in a rotational position detection unit 56 attached to the sensor unit attachment portion 60 by screws 59. That is, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the light projecting / receiving sensors 57 and 58 provided in the rotational position detecting unit 56 are provided with light projecting / receiving sensors each composed of a projector and a light receiver vertically separated from each other by a predetermined distance. The degree of screwing between the screwed male screw 49 and the screwed female screw member 51 by the rotational drive of the fine motor 48 by detecting that the detection piece 53 has entered between the upper and lower light projectors and the light receiver. An upper limit and a lower limit are detected.

上記のように構成される微動回転盤40を軸23に挿通し、その上部に粗動歯車盤33と粗動回転盤31とを順次載置当接するように軸23に挿通し、さらに止めネジ35を軸23の上端に螺合したときに、微動回転盤40に設けられる粗動モータ44の一部が切欠開口25から底壁21の裏側に突出し、微動モータ48の一部が切欠開口26から底壁21の裏側に突出し、さらに粗動モータ44の回転軸に固着される歯車45が粗動歯車盤33に噛み合った状態となる。そして、図4に示すように、微動歯車盤40のバネ取付部61に付勢バネ62の一端を係止し、付勢バネ62の他端を底壁21のバネ取付部63に係止する。このように付勢バネ62を取り付けた状態では、微調つまみ29を最も緩めた状態(微調シャフトネジ28が収納空間から退避した状態)であっても、螺合雌ネジ部材51の当接面52と微調シャフトネジ28とが当接した状態を維持するように、付勢バネ62が微動回転盤40を常時一回転方向(図4において、時計回転方向)に付勢するようになっている。もちろん、微調つまみ29を最も締めた状態(微調シャフトネジ28が収納空間から入った状態)であっても、螺合雌ネジ部材51の当接面52と微調シャフトネジ28とが当接した状態を維持するように、付勢バネ62が微動回転盤40を常時一回転方向(図4において、時計回転方向)に付勢するようになっている。   The fine rotation rotating disk 40 configured as described above is inserted into the shaft 23, and the coarse movement gear disk 33 and the coarse movement rotating disk 31 are sequentially inserted into the shaft 23 so as to be placed in contact with the upper part thereof, and further, a set screw. When 35 is screwed to the upper end of the shaft 23, a part of the coarse motor 44 provided on the fine movement rotating disk 40 projects from the notch opening 25 to the back side of the bottom wall 21, and a part of the fine movement motor 48 is notched 26. Then, the gear 45 that protrudes from the rear wall of the bottom wall 21 and is fixed to the rotating shaft of the coarse motor 44 is engaged with the coarse gear board 33. Then, as shown in FIG. 4, one end of the biasing spring 62 is locked to the spring mounting portion 61 of the fine gear wheel board 40, and the other end of the biasing spring 62 is locked to the spring mounting portion 63 of the bottom wall 21. . With the biasing spring 62 attached in this way, the contact surface 52 of the threaded female screw member 51 is in the state where the fine adjustment knob 29 is most loosened (the fine adjustment shaft screw 28 is retracted from the storage space). The urging spring 62 constantly urges the fine movement rotating disk 40 in one rotation direction (clockwise rotation in FIG. 4) so as to maintain a state where the fine adjustment shaft screw 28 is in contact with the fine adjustment shaft screw 28. Of course, even when the fine adjustment knob 29 is most tightened (the fine adjustment shaft screw 28 is inserted from the storage space), the contact surface 52 of the threaded female screw member 51 and the fine adjustment shaft screw 28 are in contact with each other. Thus, the biasing spring 62 constantly biases the fine movement rotating disk 40 in one rotation direction (clockwise rotation in FIG. 4).

図2に戻って、台座本体20の裏面側には、センサ取付底カバー70が取り付けられている。このセンサ取付底カバー70には、内部に等間隔で複数個(図示の場合には、6個)の通信用センサ71が取り付けられ、その通信用センサ71が設けられる前面位置を透視窓72で被覆している。しかして、この通信用センサ71は、垂直レーザー発振器15から照射されたレーザーラインを受信する受信器(図示しない)からの通信信号を受信するものであり、その受信に基づいて粗動モータ44又は微動モータ48を回転制御して、レーザーラインが所定の計測位置と一致するように回転機構を自動的に制御するためのものである。   Returning to FIG. 2, a sensor attachment bottom cover 70 is attached to the back side of the base body 20. A plurality of (six in the illustrated example) communication sensors 71 are mounted inside the sensor mounting bottom cover 70 at equal intervals, and the front surface position where the communication sensors 71 are provided is indicated by a transparent window 72. It is covered. Thus, the communication sensor 71 receives a communication signal from a receiver (not shown) that receives the laser line emitted from the vertical laser oscillator 15, and based on the reception, the coarse motion motor 44 or The rotation of the fine motor 48 is controlled to automatically control the rotation mechanism so that the laser line coincides with a predetermined measurement position.

ここまで、本実施形態に係るレーザー照射器1の構成について説明してきたが、このレーザー照射器1に対応して使用される受信装置(「レシーバー」とも言われる。)は、先行技術文献として挙げた特開2006−215019号公報の図3及び図9に示される受信装置と同じ構造及び機能を有するものが使用される。即ち、受信装置には、受光センサ部を有し、その受光センサ部には左右に配列された受光素子が組み込まれており、レーザー照射器1から出力された垂直レーザーラインが受光センサ部の中心部に合致するように、回転機構によりレーザー照射器1を回転させて調整(位置合わせ)を行う。受信装置の受光センサ部に照射された垂直レーザーラインが右側の受光素子に入ったときは回転機構を駆動させて受光センサ部の中心(収束点)に来るように左側に移動する指令信号を受信装置の送信器から回転機構の通信用センサ71に向けて送信する一方、受光センサ部に照射された垂直レーザーラインが左側の受光素子に入ったときは回転機構を駆動させて受光センサ部の中心(収束点)に垂直レーザーラインが来るように右側に移動する指令信号を受信装置の送信器から回転機構の通信用センサ71に向けて送信する。   Up to this point, the configuration of the laser irradiator 1 according to the present embodiment has been described, but a receiving device (also referred to as a “receiver”) used corresponding to the laser irradiator 1 is cited as a prior art document. A device having the same structure and function as those of the receiving apparatus shown in FIGS. 3 and 9 of JP-A-2006-215019 is used. That is, the receiving device has a light receiving sensor unit, and the light receiving sensor unit includes light receiving elements arranged on the left and right sides, and the vertical laser line output from the laser irradiator 1 is the center of the light receiving sensor unit. Adjustment (position alignment) is performed by rotating the laser irradiator 1 with a rotating mechanism so as to match the part. When the vertical laser line irradiated to the light receiving sensor part of the receiving device enters the right light receiving element, the rotation mechanism is driven to receive a command signal that moves to the left so as to come to the center (convergence point) of the light receiving sensor part. While transmitting from the transmitter of the apparatus to the communication sensor 71 of the rotating mechanism, when the vertical laser line irradiated to the light receiving sensor portion enters the left light receiving element, the rotating mechanism is driven to center the light receiving sensor portion. A command signal that moves to the right side so that the vertical laser line comes to (convergence point) is transmitted from the transmitter of the receiving device to the communication sensor 71 of the rotating mechanism.

以上、実施形態に係るレーザー照射器1の構成について説明してきたが、このレーザー照射器1においては、本体カバー2を含むレーザー照射ユニット4を手動で回転させたときに、粗動回転盤31と粗動歯車盤34との間ですべりが生じて粗動モータ44に負荷がかかることなく粗動回転盤31のみを回転させてレーザー照射ユニット4を手動粗動回転させることができる。また、粗動モータ44を回転駆動させたときに、粗動モータ44の歯車45と粗動歯車盤33との噛み合わせにより粗動歯車盤33を回転させ、その回転が粗動歯車盤33と粗動回転盤31との間の摩擦力により粗動回転盤31に伝達されてレーザー照射ユニット4を電動粗動回転させることができる。一方で、微調つまみ29を手動で操作したときに、微調シャフトネジ28が螺合雌ネジ部材51の当接面52と当接することにより微動回転盤40を付勢バネ62の付勢力により何れかの方向に微動回転させることができる。このとき微動回転盤40の上部に位置する粗動歯車盤33及び粗動回転盤31も一緒に回転させてレーザー照射ユニット4を手動微動回転させることができる。また、微動モータ48を回転駆動させたときに、螺合雄ネジ49と螺合雌ネジ51との螺合度合いにより微動回転盤40を付勢バネ62の付勢力により何れかの方向(垂直レーザーラインが受光装置の受光センサ部の中心と一致する方向)に微動回転させることができる。このとき微動回転盤40の上部に位置する粗動歯車盤33及び粗動回転盤31も一緒に回転させてレーザー照射ユニット4を電動微動回転させることができる。また、微動モータ48の回転に基づく螺合雄ネジ49と螺合雌ネジ51との螺合度合いが投受光センサ57,58によって上限又は下限を検出したときには、粗動モータ44を上限又は下限を解除する方向に回転させたのち、微動モータ48を回転させて上限又は下限位置を自動的に脱するように制御される。   The configuration of the laser irradiator 1 according to the embodiment has been described above. In this laser irradiator 1, when the laser irradiation unit 4 including the main body cover 2 is manually rotated, The laser irradiation unit 4 can be manually coarse-rotated by rotating only the coarse-rotation rotary plate 31 without causing a load on the coarse-motion motor 44 due to slippage between the coarse-gear gear plate 34. Further, when the coarse motor 44 is rotationally driven, the coarse gear wheel 33 is rotated by meshing the gear 45 of the coarse motor 44 and the coarse gear wheel 33, and the rotation of the coarse gear wheel 33 is rotated with the coarse gear wheel 33. The laser irradiation unit 4 can be electrically coarse-rotated by being transmitted to the coarse-motion rotary disk 31 by a frictional force with the coarse-motion rotary disk 31. On the other hand, when the fine adjustment knob 29 is operated manually, the fine adjustment shaft screw 28 comes into contact with the contact surface 52 of the threaded female screw member 51, so that the fine movement rotary disk 40 is moved to any one by the urging force of the urging spring 62. Can be finely rotated in the direction of. At this time, it is possible to rotate the laser irradiation unit 4 manually and finely by rotating the coarse gear wheel 33 and the coarse gear wheel 31 positioned above the fine motion rotary disk 40 together. Further, when the fine movement motor 48 is driven to rotate, the fine movement rotary disk 40 is moved in either direction (vertical laser) by the biasing force of the biasing spring 62 depending on the degree of screwing between the screwing male screw 49 and the screwing female screw 51. The line can be finely rotated in a direction in which the line coincides with the center of the light receiving sensor portion of the light receiving device. At this time, it is possible to rotate the laser irradiation unit 4 by finely rotating the laser irradiation unit 4 by rotating together the coarse gear wheel 33 and the coarse gear wheel 31 located above the fine wheel 40. When the upper and lower limits of the degree of screwing between the screwed male screw 49 and the screwed female screw 51 based on the rotation of the fine movement motor 48 are detected by the light emitting / receiving sensors 57 and 58, the upper limit or the lower limit of the coarse motor 44 is set. After rotating in the releasing direction, the fine movement motor 48 is rotated to automatically remove the upper limit or lower limit position.

また、本実施形態においては、粗動回転盤31と粗動歯車盤33との間に一定の粘度を有したグリスを塗り込み、本体カバー2を含むレーザー照射ユニット4を手動で回転させたときのグリス抵抗が粗動モータ44のトルクよりも弱いようにグリスの粘度を設定したので、本体カバー2を含むレーザー照射ユニット4の回転に伴って粗動回転盤31が回転しても、粗動歯車盤33がスリップして回転せず、粗動モータ44への負荷を低減することができる。   Further, in the present embodiment, when grease having a certain viscosity is applied between the coarse rotating wheel 31 and the coarse gear wheel 33 and the laser irradiation unit 4 including the main body cover 2 is manually rotated. Since the grease viscosity is set so that the grease resistance is weaker than the torque of the coarse motion motor 44, the coarse motion rotating plate 31 rotates with the rotation of the laser irradiation unit 4 including the main body cover 2. The gear board 33 slips and does not rotate, and the load on the coarse motor 44 can be reduced.
