example 1

[0115] Fig. 1 is a schematic partial view of an example of the preform forming device of the present invention, wherein (a) shows a top view, and (b) shows a side view. Twelve forming dies 2 are arranged at equal intervals around the rotation axis of the turntable 1 on the turntable 1 . By rotating the turntable 1 stepwise by an unillustrated rotating unit, these forming dies 2 are transported one by one to 12 stop point positions during repeated moving and stopping processes.

[0116] Above one of the 12 stop positions, a pipeline 3 for letting molten glass flow out is arranged, and a vessel (not shown) containing molten glass is arranged at the upper end of the pipeline. In this vessel, the purified and homogenized glass is heated and collected. The molten glass in the molten glass vessel continuously flows out through the pipe 3 at a constant rate. The forming mold 2 at the stop point of the supply position is moved upward to receive the lower end of the molten glass flow...

example 2

[0135] Fig. 5 is a partial schematic view of another form of the preform forming device of the present invention, wherein (a) shows a plan view, and (b) shows a side view.

[0136] For each forming die, preforms placed in trays in the same manner as in Example 1 were sampled, and the mass was measured. In Example 2, it was determined that the quality standard was 500 mg ± 5 mg, and it was found that the preform formed with forming die No. 3 had a quality above the standard range, while the preform formed with forming die No. 10 had a quality below the standard range the quality of. Therefore, the molding device was set as follows. Forming mold 3 stops directly below the pipeline, and when it is moved upwards with forming mold elevating mechanism 6 to make it close to the glass outlet of pipeline, it is positioned at a position lower than the position of its previous round of 5 / 100mm. Similarly, forming die No. 10 is located 5 / 100mm higher than the position of its previous ro...

Abstract

A method for mass producing precise molding preform with small surface curvature radius variation and quality variation which improves the productivity of glass molding product by means of precise molding. This method includes the following steps, receiving the melting glass outflowing continuously with glass block form by using multi molding moulds and making the glass block form precise molding preform, evaluating the surface curvature radius of the forming preforms according to each molding mould so as to recognize the molding preform possessing the surface curvature radius without the range of the reservation curvature radius, and then controlling the surface curvature radius of the glass block which takes shape based on this recognized molding preform so as to make the surface curvature radius of this recognized molding preform within the range of the reservation curvature radius. This invention discloses a technology for producing optical elements through precise molding of the preform according to the given method.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for mass production of precision molded preforms, a preform forming device and a production process for optical elements. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method for mass-producing precision molded preforms with small variations in surface radius of curvature and mass to increase the productivity of glass molded products produced by precision molding, for shaping the above preforms and a process for producing an optical element by precision molding a preform produced by the above method. Background technique [0002] A method as disclosed in JP-A-2003-40632 is known, in which molten glass is made to flow out, a predetermined amount of glass is separated and formed into a mold on or over a mold during cooling of the glass Precision molded preforms. In the above-mentioned method, a plurality of forming molds are arranged on a turntable or the like, and the turntable is rotated stepwise so t...
