The invention relates to a technical field of a laser ranging equipments, and more particularly to a light source structure that is a package structure formed by a light source array including multiple light sources, an optical radar device including the light source structure, and a process of assembling the light source structure.
An optical radar device (also named lidar) involves a technology that uses pulsed laser light to measure the distance of objects. A laser beam is emitted to a target and is reflected by the surface of the target. The reflected laser beam is received so that the distance to the target can be obtained through ranging technology (such as ToF technology or FMCW technology). Optical radar devices are widely used in meteorology, terrain detection, or a ranging application for autonomous vehicle that is currently popular.
Generally, what are used as the light source structure of a known optical radar device are laser diodes. Multiple laser diodes are arranged into an array on a circuit board to emit laser beams at a predetermined frequency for measuring the distance to an object. In such laser light source structure, however, the laser diodes are individually welded to the circuit board. To ensure that the irradiation direction of the beam can meet the requirements, the laser diode array is checked by way of beam projections in the subsequent alignment and correction process. Further, the beam emitted by the laser diode array in a direction parallel to the circuit board additionally requires prisms to change the traveling direction.

The slow axis collimator 42 includes a columnar concave lens. The columnar concave lens has a microstructure formed by an array of concave lenses with multiple aspheric surfaces (such as paraboloidal surfaces). In some other embodiments, the fast axis collimator 41 may be a spherical convex lens, and the slow axis collimator 42 may be a spherical concave lens.
In this embodiment, the fast axis collimator 41 and the slow axis collimator 42 are combined in such a way that the beam adjusting module 40 is formed into a continuous structure, wherein the fast axis collimator 41 includes a convex lens portion 411 and a first columnar portion 412, and the slow axis collimator 42 includes a concave lens portion 421 and a second columnar portion 422.

The scanning element 3 includes multiple reflecting mirrors 3A that are connected to form a columnar structure. The scanning element 3 is rotatable about an axis. The light source structure 1 is able to emit a working light beam at a predetermined frequency. The scanning element 3 rotates so that one of the reflecting mirrors 3A reflects the working light beam to the outside through the window 2A, and the emission angle of the working light beam changes with time, whereby a scan is performed within a certain angle range relative to the horizontal direction (X-axis) of the optical radar device. Since the concave lens portion 421 of the beam adjusting module 40 causes the light to diverge to an appropriate degree in the second direction L2, the divergence angle may be, but is not limited to, 32 degrees or 60 degrees. The second direction L2 is parallel to the perpendicular direction (Y-axis) of the optical radar device. In this way, when the scanning element 3 rotates, light can scan the external space in the X-axis and Y-axis directions. Since the working light beam travels along the Z-axis, a three-dimensional scanning effect can be produced. As described, multiple reflecting mirrors 3A are connected to each other to form a columnar structure. Therefore, when the scanning element 3 rotates about the axis, the reflection of the working light beam by the reflecting mirror 3A is periodical to form a loop, so that the scan of the working light beam can be periodically performed within a certain angular range.
The light receiving element 4 is disposed in the housing to face the transparent window 2A. Therefore, the working light beam reflected by an external object can be received by the light receiving element 4. The calculation control unit is electrically connected to the light source structure 1, the scanning element 3 and the light receiving element 4. The distance to the external object can be calculated by the calculation control unit based on the information about emission and reception of the working light beam.
The invention provides an optical radar device and the light source structure thereof, wherein multiple light emitting units are provided to form a light source elements, multiple light source elements are provided to form a light source array, and the light source array is covered by a cover. The light emitting units are individually controlled to emit light. In this way, the accuracy of light beam emission can be increased, and the subsequent adjustment and calibration process of light beam projection can be simplified. The operation of welding laser diodes to the circuit board that is performed in the prior art is not required in the invention. Therefore, the assembly process can be simplified and the required accuracy can be easily reached.
Further, the light emitting direction of the light emitting portion of the light emitting unit is perpendicular to the circuit board. The slow axis collimator of the beam adjusting module deflects the light on the Y-axis, and the scanning element deflects the light on the X-axis. Therefore, no prisms for changing the traveling direction of the light beams are required. The elements of the light source structure can be reduced in number.
