A portable surface finishing device based on coherent light source includes a cover, a laser source, an optical calibrating module and a laser scanning module. The cover includes a beam output opening. The laser source is disposed in the cover, and is for providing a laser beam. The optical calibrating module is disposed in the cover, and the laser beam passes through the optical calibrating module. The laser scanning module is disposed in the cover, and the laser beam from the optical calibrating module passes through the laser scanning module so as to linearly output on a target surface. The laser scanning module includes a multifaceted reflective structure, a rotation driving mechanism and an F-theta lens.

Systems, apparatus and methods for performing laser operations in boreholes and other remote locations, such operations including laser drilling of a borehole in the earth. Systems, apparatus and methods for generating and delivering high power laser energy below the surface of the earth and within a borehole. Laser operations using such downhole generated laser beams.

A multifunctional therapeutic device for providing therapy to human body is disclosed. The device incorporates means for any one or combination of different therapies, namely electric pulse therapy, UV therapy, Low energy laser therapy, and heat therapy, that can be operated individually or simultaneously as per requirement. The device is double ended with each end incorporating capability to impart each of the therapies either individually or in combination. One end is configured for therapy to a smaller area, and the other end configured to provide therapy to a larger area of human body. Two identical laser devices are used along with converging and diverging coupling systems to focus laser to a smaller or larger area. Device includes a single display that rotates the displayed data depending on which side is being used; and includes a hand wheel for adjusting intensity of therapy that allows ambidextrous application.

An apparatus or process supplies a controlled stream of gas in a laminar flow to provide a laser beam permeable barrier in a plane between laser material processing byproducts and a final laser focusing optical element to separate a contaminated environment and a clean environment without directing gas towards the processing point of the laser. The stream of gas may be directed towards a filter by a vacuum source such as a fan. The vacuum source may be sized to draw in more gas than the stream of gas.

A laser system includes a controller, a laser source, a laser scanner, and a laser containment apparatus. The laser containment apparatus includes a mounting structure for the laser scanner, a shroud assembly coupled to the mounting structure, and a seal interface coupled to the shroud assembly at an opposite end from the laser scanner. The shroud assembly surrounds a working volume of the laser scanner and includes a vacuum port connected to a vacuum source and a purge port that guides purge gas from a purge gas source toward the laser scanner. A distal end of the seal interface is formed of a pliable material that compresses to seal the shroud assembly to a target surface of a workpiece upon establishment of a negative pressure differential between a vacuum pressure inside the shroud assembly and ambient atmospheric pressure.

To suppress interference between a member for supporting a housing and a workpiece while bringing the housing and the workpiece close to each other. A laser processing apparatus includes: a laser light scanning section that deflects laser light to be emitted toward an irradiation area in accordance with a predetermined processing setting; and a housing that accommodates the laser light scanning section. In the housing, an exit window transmitting the laser light emitted toward the irradiation area via the laser light scanning section, and a top surface arranged to face the exit window and attached to the attachment target position are formed.

An optical head for a laser transmission welding apparatus comprising a housing with an end on the outlet side with respect to a laser beam and a ball mounted in the housing. The ball may comprise a material whose refractive index is higher than the refractive index of quartz glass.

A hand-held therapeutic laser apparatus with a special opto-mechanical construction, which enables changeability of a front collimating lens to create different effective laser apertures. A smaller effective aperture has a comparatively higher radiant flux density for treatment of a small area that requires a higher energy dose, while a larger effective aperture facilitates treatment of a large area at a relatively reduced radiant intensity.

Systems, apparatus and methods for performing laser operations in boreholes and other remote locations, such operations including laser drilling of a borehole in the earth. Systems, apparatus and methods for generating and delivering high power laser energy below the surface of the earth and within a borehole. Laser operations using such downhole generated laser beams.

A hand displaceable laser welding gun is configured with an elongated support column extending along a longitudinal axis and made from lightweight material. A support plate is displaceably mounted to the column while supporting thereon an optical head axially which is provided with optics. The optics is configured to direct a laser beam along a path towards a welding zone through a protective window of the optical head. The laser welding gun further is structured with a first arm mounted to the support plate and extending along a longitudinal axis of the gun diametrically opposite to the optical head. The inner surface of the displaceable arm has an inner surface defining a tunnel which is aligned with the optical head and axially traversed by the laser beam, a first axially flowing stream of pressurized gaseous medium, and a second axially flowing stream of gaseous medium. The second stream, entering the tunnel at a pressure lower than that one of the first stream in response to a pressure gradient generated in the column, does not generate vortexes within the column. The first and second streams exit through the downstream end of the tunnel next to the welding zone. As the streams flow out, they carry out welding debris flowing within the tunnel to the optical head.
