Optical device comprising a micro-optical system and a retainer, and method for producing an optical device
The present invention relates to an to an optical device comprising a micro-optical system and a retainer, and to a method for producing an optical device. In the case of the device according to the invention, the micro-optical system ( 10 ) is fastened in such a way that the micro-optical system is oriented in relation to a surface ( 50 ) of the retainer ( 60 ). The device is characterized in that the retainer ( 60 ) has a round, tapered recess ( 40 ) and the micro-optical system ( 10 ) is fastened on a spherical cap ( 20 ) and the spherical cap ( 20 ) is fastened to the retainer ( 60 ), wherein the spherical cap ( 20 ) at least partially protrudes into the recess ( 40 ) and lies against a partial surface ( 30 ) of the recess ( 40 ) or an edge ( 41 ) in the recess ( 40 ), wherein the spherical cap ( 20 ) is fastened to the retainer ( 60 ) in the recess ( 40 ), but is not fastened where the spherical cap lies in contact. Because the spherical cap lies in contact, shrinking of a fasting means cannot cause a shift or rotation of the spherical cap and thus cannot cause a misadjustment.
1. An optical device comprising a micro-optical system and a retainer, wherein the micro-optical system is fastened in such a way that the micro-optical system is oriented in relation to a surface of the retainer, characterized in that the retainer has a round, tapered recess and the micro-optical system is fastened on a spherical dome and the spherical dome having a spherical surface is fastened to the retainer, wherein the spherical dome at least partially protrudes into the recess and lies against a partial surface of the recess or an edge in the recess, wherein the spherical dome is fastened to the retainer by a fastening element provided inside the recess, but is not fastened where the spherical dome lies in contact, wherein the spherical surface directly contacts the partial surface of the recess or the edge in the recess, wherein the fastening element is only on a single side of said direct surface contact in a gap between the spherical dome and a second partial surface of the recess, said gap being located on said single side together with the micro-optical system.
2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the surface forms a part of the recess which is in the form of a conical portion and is closer to the retainer surface and the spherical dome lies against the surface along a support line, wherein a fastening encloses the support line.
3. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the edge forms a stage in the recess, wherein a fastening is arranged on the step.
4. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the fastening touches the support line.
5. A method for producing an optical device comprising a micro-optical system and a retainer, wherein the retainer has a round, tapered recess, comprising the following steps:
mounting of a base surface of the micro-optical system on a planar side of a spherical dome having a spherical surface,
mounting of the spherical dome in the recess, so that the spherical dome at least partially protrudes into the recess and lies against an edge in the recess or against a surface of the recess, wherein the spherical surface directly contacts the partial surface of the recess or the edge in the recess,
orienting of the micro-optical system, and
fastening of the micro-optical system on the spherical dome and providing a fastening element within the recess for fastening of the spherical dome to the retainer in the recess, but not where the spherical dome lies in contact, wherein the fastening element is only on a single side of said direct surface contact in a gap between the spherical dome and a second partial surface of the recess, said gap being located on said single side together with the micro-optical system.
