Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of polishing equipment, and in particular to a lens polishing equipment base. Background Technology

[0002] As is well known, lenses are made by mixing high-purity oxides of silicon, boron, sodium, potassium, zinc, lead, magnesium, calcium, barium, etc., according to a specific formula, melting them at high temperature in a platinum crucible, stirring them evenly with ultrasound to remove air bubbles, and then slowly cooling them for a long time to prevent the glass block from generating internal stress. During the manufacturing process of optical lenses, the entire lens needs to be polished.

[0003] Some existing optical lens polishing devices have a cleaning structure. A pump uses nozzles to spray water from a tank onto the lenses during polishing, and the wastewater falls into a collection tank. To conserve water, the lenses are often rinsed intermittently during polishing. However, some of the rinse water remains on the lenses after rinsing and cannot be removed promptly. This water mixes with dust generated during subsequent polishing, forming turbid water. This turbid water directly affects the operator's judgment of the polishing level, resulting in a significant discrepancy between the final curvature of the polished lens and the preset value. Utility Model Content

[0021] To make the utility model's objectives, features, and advantages more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

It should be noted that when a component is considered to be "connected" to another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there may be a component centrally located at the same time.

[0023] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0024] This utility model embodiment provides a lens polishing equipment base, including at least one set of lens mounting slots 1 and a blower mechanism and a suction mechanism disposed on opposite sides of the lens mounting slots 1; The blower mechanism blows gas in from one side of the lens mounting slot 1, and the exhaust mechanism extracts gas from the other side of the lens mounting slot 1. The gas flows directionally on the lens mounting slot 1 to form a high-velocity flow layer.

[0025] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, this utility model uses a blower mechanism and an exhaust mechanism to form a fast-flow layer on the lens mounting groove 1. The rapidly flowing gas continuously washes the lens, dries the liquid on the lens surface, and carries away the powder generated during the polishing process. This keeps the lens surface clean throughout the polishing process and prevents the dust generated during polishing from mixing with water to form turbid water that could affect the operator's judgment of the polishing degree.

[0026] Specifically, the blower mechanism blows gas toward the lens mounting slot 1, while the exhaust mechanism on the opposite side draws the gas away from the lens mounting slot, thus forming a directional airflow between the blower mechanism and the exhaust mechanism. During the lens polishing process, the blower mechanism and the exhaust mechanism work continuously, and the airflow continuously washes the lens, promptly cleaning the liquid and dust on the lens.

[0027] Furthermore, the lens polishing equipment base also includes a base body 4, the top of which is grooved to form a working area 5, and the center of the working area 5 is grooved to form the lens mounting groove 1; at least four spring telescopic rods are arranged in a ring inside the lens mounting groove 1 for fixing the lens.

[0028] A set of air inlet ducts 6 and a set of air outlet ducts 7 are respectively provided on both sides of the working area 5; One end of the air inlet duct 6 is connected to one side of the working area 5, and the other end is connected to the blower mechanism; One end of the air outlet duct 7 is connected to one side of the working area 5, and the other end is connected to the exhaust mechanism.

[0029] In this embodiment, after the blower mechanism is activated, it blows gas from the air inlet duct 6 into the working area 5 and into the lens mounting slot 1. Simultaneously, the exhaust mechanism operates, drawing gas from the other side of the lens mounting slot 1 into the air outlet duct 7 and discharging it. This creates a directional, high-speed airflow layer, or velocity layer, between the blower and exhaust mechanisms, covering the lens surface.

[0030] One end of the air inlet duct 6 is connected to the blower mechanism, and the other end is connected to one side of the working area 5. Its main function is to guide the gas provided by the blower mechanism to the working area 5 and finally blow it onto the lens mounting slot 1. In this way, it can be ensured that the airflow can accurately cover the surface of the lens that needs to be polished.

[0031] The design of the air inlet duct 6 helps control the direction and speed of the airflow entering the working area 5, making it more concentrated and evenly distributed towards the lens mounting slot 1. This improves the scouring effect of the airflow on the lens surface, more effectively removing liquids and dust.

[0032] One end of the air outlet 7 is connected to one side of the working area 5, and the other end is connected to the exhaust mechanism. Its main task is to extract the gas that has passed over the lens surface from the working area 5 and discharge the mixed gas containing moisture and dust carried away from the lens out of the system.

[0033] The exhaust duct 7, used in conjunction with the exhaust mechanism, creates a slight negative pressure environment around the lens mounting slot 1. This helps to ensure a stable airflow in a predetermined direction: entering through the inlet duct 6, passing through the lens mounting slot 1, and exiting through the exhaust duct 7, thus forming an effective high-velocity airflow layer. By promptly extracting gas containing impurities, the exhaust duct 7 helps maintain fresh air in the working area 5, preventing the accumulation of dust and moisture, and further ensuring that the lens is not subject to secondary contamination during the polishing process.

[0034] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the air inlet duct 6 further includes a first horizontal section 601, the lower bottom wall of the first horizontal section 601 being smoothly connected to one side of the lower surface of the working area 5. The air outlet duct 7 includes a second horizontal section 701, the lower bottom wall of the second horizontal section 701 being smoothly connected to the other side of the lower surface of the working area 5. The first horizontal section 601 and the second horizontal section 701 are on the same horizontal plane. The blower mechanism and the exhaust mechanism cooperate through the first horizontal section 601 and the second horizontal section 701, and the gas flows in a direction in the working area 5 to form a high-velocity flow layer.

[0035] In this embodiment, the horizontal section design of the air inlet duct 6 and the air outlet duct 7 and their smooth connection with the lower surface of the working area 5 enable stable, uniform, and directional airflow within the working area 5; forming an effective high-velocity flow layer to continuously clean the lens surface, improve polishing efficiency, improve the working environment, and ensure product quality.

[0036] In this design, the horizontal sections of the air inlet duct 6 and the air outlet duct 7 are on the same plane and smoothly connected to the lower surfaces of both sides of the working area 5. This design avoids severe turbulence or dead zones in the airflow when entering or leaving the working area 5. It helps to form a more uniform, stable, and low-resistance airflow field, thereby improving the quality and coverage of the velocity layer.

[0037] like Figure 6 As shown, the air outlet duct 7 further includes a second vertical section 702. The second horizontal section 701 and the second vertical section 702 are provided with first limiting grooves 703 on both side walls. A sponge pad 704 is installed in the first limiting groove 703. The first limiting groove 703 is connected to one side of the working area 5.

[0038] In this embodiment, by adding a second vertical section 702, a first limiting groove 703, and a sponge pad 704 to the air outlet duct 7, the purpose of effectively filtering dust and droplets in the airflow is achieved, thereby reducing pollution to subsequent equipment.

[0039] Specifically, the gas first enters the second horizontal section 701, then enters the second vertical section 702, and is finally extracted by the exhaust mechanism. During this process, when the airflow passes near the first limiting groove 703, the dust particles and droplets therein may be adsorbed and captured by the sponge pad 704.

[0040] The first limiting groove 703 is connected to one side of the working area 5, so that the sponge pad 704 can be pulled out from one side of the working area 5 for replacement. The structure is simple and practical, and easy to replace and maintain.

[0041] Furthermore, the widths of the air inlet duct 6 and the air outlet duct 7 are equal to the width of the working area 5.

[0042] In this embodiment, by limiting the width of the air inlet duct 6 and the air outlet duct 7 to be consistent with the width of the working area 5, the airflow is evenly distributed throughout the width of the working area 5, which improves the system operating efficiency, enhances the polishing quality, and supports multi-station operations.

[0043] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a windbreak plate 8 is further provided on each of the top two sides of the work area 5; The area between the two wind deflectors 8 forms an operation window 801, the width of which is greater than the width of the lens mounting slot 1.

[0044] In this embodiment, by setting a wind deflector 8 at the top of the working area and forming an operation window 801 therebetween, the stability of the airflow system within the working area is protected, preventing external interference. It also provides a safe and visible operating space, facilitating lens loading / unloading and process monitoring.

[0045] Specifically, the operating window 801 provides a safe and controllable operating space, allowing operators or robotic arms to load, unload, and monitor lenses without affecting the airflow system. The width of the operating window 801 is greater than that of the lens mounting slot 1, which satisfies operational requirements without affecting overall airflow control. Furthermore, the design of the operating window 801 also reserves interfaces for the subsequent introduction of automatic loading and unloading systems or visual inspection devices.

[0046] The wind deflector 8 can block external air turbulence from entering the working area 5, preventing damage to the already formed high-velocity air layer; it keeps the airflow within the set path, improving cleaning and drying efficiency.

[0047] Furthermore, a set of second limiting grooves 9 are provided on both sides of the top of the base body 4, and the two sets of second limiting grooves 9 are respectively located on the top sides of the working area 5. The wind deflector 8 is slidably installed in the second limiting groove 9; The wind deflector 8 has a groove 8001 on the side near the lens mounting slot 1. When the two wind deflectors 8 are combined, the space formed by the two grooves 8001 is the operation window 801, which is located directly above the lens mounting slot 1.

[0048] In this embodiment, through the innovative design of the installation method of the wind deflector 8 and the structure of the operation window 801, the sliding installation and flexible adjustment function of the wind deflector 8 are realized, which supports the quick opening or closing of the operation window 801, making it convenient for lens replacement, equipment cleaning or fault handling.

[0049] The operation window 801 is formed by splicing the grooves 8001 on the wind deflector 8, ensuring that the operation window 801 is precisely aligned with the top of the lens mounting slot 1. This satisfies the needs of manual or mechanical operation without disrupting the overall airflow environment. Furthermore, wind deflectors with different groove depths can be replaced according to different lens sizes, improving the equipment's versatility and adaptability.

[0050] Furthermore, a filter assembly 10 is provided on one side of the base body 4, and the filter assembly 10 is an activated carbon plate; wherein, a snap-fit ​​structure for snapping the filter assembly 10 is provided on one side of the base body 4, specifically an L-shaped slot arranged on the upper and lower sides of the exhaust mechanism, the activated carbon plate can be slid into the L-shaped slot to achieve the function of quick replacement.

[0051] The filter assembly 10 completely covers the exhaust mechanism.

[0052] In this embodiment, by setting an activated carbon plate filter assembly 10 on one side of the base body and making it completely cover the exhaust mechanism, efficient filtration and adsorption of dust, liquid particles and harmful gases in the exhaust airflow are achieved.

[0053] It should be noted that the filter assembly 10 is not limited to activated carbon plates, but can also be other structures or devices with filtration functions. Since the filter assembly is existing technology, it will not be described in detail here.

[0054] Furthermore, the ventilation mechanism includes a wind tunnel 201 and an electric fan 202 installed in the wind tunnel 201; it should be noted that the wind tunnel 201 is connected to the air inlet duct 6 or the air outlet duct 7 mentioned above.

[0055] The structure of the blower mechanism is the same as that of the exhaust mechanism, and they are arranged symmetrically.

[0056] In this embodiment, a unified, symmetrical, and functionally coordinated airflow control system is constructed by ensuring consistent design of the blower and exhaust mechanisms and their effective connection with the inlet duct 6 or outlet duct 7. The electric fan's speed can be adjusted via frequency conversion control to achieve on-demand air supply. For example, it can be automated with sensors and PLCs, supporting flexible adjustments under different process parameters and exhibiting strong adaptability.

[0057] In the ventilation system, wind tunnel 201 serves as a gas flow channel; an electric fan 202 is installed inside wind tunnel 201 to generate suction, drawing gas from the working area 5 and expelling it. Wind tunnel 201 is connected to air outlet duct 7 and is responsible for extracting contaminated gas from the working area 5.

[0058] like Figure 2 As shown, the blower mechanism also includes a wind tunnel 201 and an electric fan 202. They are installed in opposite directions and are used to blow clean air into the working area 5. The wind tunnel 201 is connected to the air inlet duct 6 to deliver gas into the working area 5.

[0059] It should be noted that the structure of the blower and the exhaust mechanism can achieve the formation of a directional high-speed airflow in the working area 5. This technical effect is not limited to the combination of wind tunnel 201 and electric fan 202. It can also be a combination of air compressor and nozzle system, high-pressure centrifugal fan, central dust collection system and duct connection, etc. Since the equipment or structure that can achieve the formation of a directional high-speed airflow in the working area 5 is existing technology, it will not be described in detail here.

[0060] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, a water tank 401 is further provided on one side of the bottom of the base body 4, and the water tank 401 is located on the outside of the exhaust mechanism. The bottom of the air duct 201 in the exhaust mechanism is provided with a drainage channel 203, one end of which is connected to the water tank 401.

[0061] In this embodiment, by setting a water tank 401 on the base body and opening a drainage channel 203 at the bottom of the wind tunnel 201, the liquid entrained in the airflow is effectively collected and discharged, preventing liquid accumulation inside the equipment. This protects the exhaust mechanism from liquid corrosion and improves the stability and service life of the equipment.

[0062] Coolant or cleaning fluid is often used during lens polishing, and these liquids can easily be carried into the air duct by high-speed airflow. If not removed in time, they will accumulate inside the equipment, leading to problems such as corrosion, blockage, or even short circuits. The design of drainage channel 203 and water tank 401 can actively collect and drain liquids, ensuring the normal operation of the equipment.

[0063] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
