Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an optical projection lens for observing the concave surface of a sphere suspended in liquid, belonging to the technical field of concave surface detection. Background Art

[0002] The imaging systems on the market observe flat surfaces. However, in industrial applications, there are many requirements for imaging curved surfaces, such as concave surfaces. For example, before the finished contact lenses are packaged, it is necessary to detect whether there are defects on their surfaces and boundaries. However, since contact lenses have a certain degree of concavity, the traditional inspection method requires projecting the contact lens image on a large screen, and the operator needs to constantly touch the contact lens to observe the projection at different depths, which makes the workload huge. Summary of the invention

[0003] The present invention provides an optical projection lens for observing the concave surface of a sphere suspended in a liquid. The optical projection lens can simultaneously project and image the surface and edge of a similar concave surface of a sphere with a diameter equal to or less than 14.5 mm and a concavity equal to or less than 5 mm suspended in a liquid, without requiring intervention of other methods such as tomography, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of detection.

[0006] The optical projection lens for observing the concave surface of a sphere suspended in a liquid utilizes secondary imaging to stretch the field curvature of the system. At the same time, the aperture stop is placed between two groups of positive lenses to eliminate dispersion in the entire visible band. Halogen lamps can be used for illumination to magnify objects such as contact lenses onto the projector.

[0009] In order to further ensure the imaging effect, preferably, the third lens is a biconvex H-LAK53A lens with positive refractive power, the center thickness of the third lens is 12±0.1mm, and from the image side to the object side, the two sides of the third lens are the third image side surface and the third object side surface respectively, the curvature of the third image plane is 41.9±0.01mm, and the curvature of the third object side surface is -67.5±0.01mm.

[0010] In order to further ensure the imaging effect, preferably, from the image side to the object side, the fourth lens is composed of a H-ZK10L / H-ZF72A cemented lens with positive refractive power, the two sides of the H-ZK10L lens are the fourth A image side surface and the fourth A object side surface, and the two sides of the H-ZF72A lens are the fourth B image side surface and the fourth B object side surface; the fourth A image side surface is convex with a curvature of 31.3±0.01mm; the fourth A object side surface is convex with a curvature of 10±0.01mm; the fourth B image side surface is concave with a curvature of 10±0.01mm; the fourth B object side surface is convex with a curvature of 21.5±0.01mm; the center thickness of the H-ZK10L lens is 11.8±0.1mm, and the center thickness of the H-ZF72A lens is 8.5±0.1mm.

[0013] The optical projection lens for observing the concave surface of a sphere suspended in a liquid is composed of two lens groups with positive focal lengths. The aperture is located between the two positive lens groups. The first lens group forms an image between the two lens groups, and then the second positive lens group forms an image on the focal plane, which stretches the depth of field of the lens. The lens uses three single lenses and one cemented lens to eliminate chromatic aberration in the entire visible light range, so that the invented lens can be used on a projector with a halogen lamp as a light source. Such a lens composed of two positive lens groups with intermediate imaging can stretch the field curvature to a greater extent, so that the surface and edge of the concave surface suspended in the liquid can be observed simultaneously.
