Description

The optical encoder light source
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of optical encoder light source, particularly relate to a kind of the improvement and closely connect the optical encoder light source that high light is interfered.
Background technology
Along with the progress of computer software and popularizing of figure user interface, mouse has been widely used in the user interface of computing machine.Known mouse (as the mechanical type mouse), it is to use spin to cooperate optical encoder to reach the function of control computer screen cursor.Referring to Fig. 1, be the vertical view of a known mechanical type mouse 10, this mechanical type mouse 10 mainly has a spin 100, at least one roller bearing 102 and corresponding optical encoder 110.This optical encoder 110 comprises the code wheel 112 (encoder wheel) with roller bearing 102 interlocks, reaches the optical module in code wheel 112 both sides, and it comprises a light source 114A and a photodetector 114B.This spin 100 drives X-and Y-direction encoding wheel 112 when rolling, light signal by 112 continuous this light source of blocking 114A of this code wheel, after photodetector 114B receives, handle by suitable control circuit, get final product the interpretation mouse moving direction, the coupled computer driver can be controlled the direction that onscreen cursor moves again.
As shown in Figure 2, be the side view of a known optical scrambler 110, this photodetector 114B mainly has two sensitive surfaces (oblique line part, not label), and accepts the light by 112 continuous blockings of code wheel, to differentiate direction and the displacement that spin 100 moves.Optical encoder 110 shown in Figure 2 is to use an interrupter-type code wheel 112, is judged the rotation of interrupter-type code wheel 112 by having or not of sensitive surface receiving optical signals.Yet, cause judgement to be difficult for because the characteristic of light diffraction can be dispersed by the light of light source 114A emission.Figure 3 shows that the side view of another known optical scrambler 110, this photodetector 114B also has two sensitive surfaces (not label), and code wheel 113 is that a lens arra is to overcome the diffraction phenomenon, the rotation of code wheel 113 be can whether judge by light focusing, direction and displacement that spin 100 moves further differentiated.
Yet above-mentioned two known optical scramblers 110 still have and closely connect the problem that high light disturbs, because light has interference, when therefore if the twice light beam is directed to two sensitive surfaces simultaneously, the high light that constructive interference produces can appear between two sensitive surfaces, cause signal interpretation mistake.As shown in Figure 4, closely connect the influence of high light interference for input for illustrating, solid line partly is desirable detection signal.But owing to closely connect the problem that high light disturbs, the signal that actual measurement is arrived can be shown in dotted line, can be subjected to the high light interference and can't drop to trough.
Figure 5 shows that the side view of another known optical scrambler 110, for addressing the above problem, can add an anti-dazzling screen 116 in photodetector 114B the place ahead, to cover position between two sensitive surfaces, yet because the undulatory property characteristic of light still can't effectively solve and closely connect the problem that high light disturbs.
Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of the improvement closely to connect the optical encoder light source that high light is interfered.
For reaching above-mentioned purpose, the invention provides a kind of optical encoder light source, this optical encoder has the photodetector of a plurality of sensitive surfaces and a code wheel with a light that continuous blocking is sent by light source, and this light source comprises: at least one light emitting diode; One encapsulating housing; Reach one and aim at the unit, have and the corresponding lens of sensitive surface.
The present invention also provides a kind of optical encoder light source, this optical encoder have the photodetector of a plurality of sensitive surfaces and a code wheel can between the light that sends by light source of continuous blocking, this light source comprises: at least one light emitting diode; One encapsulating housing; Reach one and aim at the unit, have and the corresponding opening of sensitive surface.
That is to say, optical encoder light source provided by the invention, wherein this optical encoder comprise one have the photodetector of a plurality of sensitive surfaces and a code wheel can between the light that sends by light source of continuous blocking, this light source comprises at least one light emitting diode, an encapsulating housing and is aimed at the unit, and it has and the corresponding lens of sensitive surface.This aligned units is to be assembled on this encapsulating housing or integrally formed with encapsulating housing; These lens be plano-convex lens or biconvex lens with the light emitted line focus of light emitting diode to corresponding sensitive surface.This aligned units can also closely connect the problem that high light disturbs with effective solution by constituting with the sensitive surface corresponding opening.
