Abstract

A diode laser collimatting device comprising a laser collimatting socket mounted on a socket holder through plug-in connection with a plastic lens retained therebetween in position, a laser diode inserted in said socket holder, an exciter circuit board inserted in said socket holder and connected to said laser diode, and a contact spring inserted in said socket holder and connected to said exciter circuit board, and wherein inserting said laser diode into said socket holder causes said socket holder, said laser diode, said exciter circuit board, said contact spring and said power supply to form into a circuit permitting said laser diode to be excited by said exciter circuit board to emit light through said plastic lens and said laser collimatting socket; a grid is fastened in said center hole to filtrate the light beam produced from said laser diode.
