Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent a contaminant from sticking to a mirror surface by blowing clean gas to the mirror surface. CONSTITUTION:In a mirror holder 17 for a reflecting mirror 18 which reflects a laser beam 16, etc., a nozzle hole 21 is formed and the surface of the mirror 18 is held invariably at constant pressure higher than the atmospheric pressure by the clean gas supplied through the hole 21. Thus, a contaminant is prevented from sticking on the surface of the mirror 18, improving the durability of the reflecting mirror.

Conventionally, processing lasers have taken advantage of the beam characteristics of low energy loss in the atmosphere and small spread, and have been used to perform processing using a condensing system at a position away from the oscillator. In this case, a reflective mirror is used to guide the laser beam to a predetermined location.

In such a structure, due to the movement of the laser beam 8, it is difficult to completely cover the beam path compared to the case shown in FIG. A method is taken to cover the However, in all cases, the reflecting mirrors 10, 11, 12, and 13 are exposed to the atmosphere during processing, and the workpiece 1
6. As a result, substances generated during processing and dust in the atmosphere adhere to the mirror surface. These deposits are welded by the energy of the laser beam, leading to a decrease in mirror reflectivity and deterioration of surface quality, reducing processing ability.
