Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an optical element packaging box, in particular to an optical element self-adaptive packaging box. Background Art

[0002] Traditional optical components are primarily used in traditional optical products such as traditional cameras, telescopes, and microscopes. Precision optical components are primarily used in smartphones, projectors, digital cameras, camcorders, copiers, optical instruments, medical equipment, and various precision optical lenses. Optical elements are the most critical of these optical components. These precision parts are susceptible to disturbances caused by changes in ambient temperature and external stress during handling, transportation, and use, which can damage them. Due to their wide range of applications, optical components come in countless sizes, and each requires customized packaging. Consequently, there are tens of thousands of different packaging options for these thousands of optical components. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention proposes an adaptive packaging for optical components. The packaging lining is curved and forms linear contact with the optical components, thus avoiding secondary contamination of the processed optical surfaces. At the same time, it can accommodate optical components of different sizes in the same packaging box, thereby reducing design and production costs.

[0004] The technical solutions of the present invention are as follows:

[0005] An adaptive packaging box for optical elements, comprising a box body and a box cover, is characterized in that the box body has a groove for placing the optical element, and a curved lining is laid in the groove so that the lining forms linear contact with the optical element; threaded holes are respectively provided at the four corners of the top of the box body, and the box cover covers the box body and is fastened to the threaded holes by screws to fix the box cover to the box body.

[0006] The radius a of the groove, the depth b of the groove, the length 2r of the optical element, and the height h of the optical element satisfy the following formula:

[0007]

[0008] The inner lining is in the shape of a half ellipse, with a major axis radius a and a minor axis radius b, and is adapted to the groove.

[0009] The material of the lining is plastic or nylon.

[0010] A pair of finger positions are symmetrically provided on the inner periphery of the groove for accommodating fingers when placing the optical element.

[0011] The box body and the box cover are made of metal, plastic or wood.

[0012] The box cover has protrusions at both ends and a depression inside, and the length of the depression is adapted to the outer diameter of the box body, so that the box cover fits tightly against the box body.

[0013] The technical advantages of the present invention are:

[0014] The inner lining of the present invention has an arc and forms a line contact with the optical element, thereby avoiding secondary contamination of the processed optical surface.

[0015] The optical element and the optical element adaptive packaging achieve line contact, thus avoiding secondary contamination of the processed optical surface; the optical element adaptive packaging can adapt to the packaging of optical elements of different sizes, thus reducing design costs.

[0016] The invention can accommodate optical components of different sizes in the same packaging box, thereby reducing design and production costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the following examples, but the scope of protection of the present invention should not be limited thereto.

[0022] The optical element placed is cylindrical, e.g. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the height is h and the radius is r. When h and r satisfy the following relationship, the present invention can be used for packaging.

[0023]

[0024] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment is an adaptive packaging for optical components, characterized in that the packaging includes a box cover 1, a box body 2, screws 3, an inner lining 4, a finger position 5, and a hand-threaded hole 6. The box cover 1 is placed on the box body 2 and fastened to the threaded hole 6 by the screws 3 to form a sealed package. The optical component is placed on the inner lining 4 and is in line contact with the optical component.

[0025] The box cover can cover the packaging box body, and the material is plastic material.

[0026] The box body is the base of the adaptive packaging of the optical element and is made of plastic material.

[0027] The screws are fastened in the threaded holes through the packaging cover to play a fastening role. The screws are made of metal and are evenly distributed on the four corners of the adaptive packaging of the optical element.

[0028] The inner lining is in the shape of a half ellipse, with a major axis radius of a and a minor axis radius of b. The inner lining is in line contact with the optical element and is made of nylon.

[0029] The finger position is a place where a finger can be placed when the optical element is placed in the optical element adaptive package.

[0030] The threaded holes correspond to the number and positions of the screws.

[0031] By using the optical element adaptive packaging of the present invention, the optical element and the optical element adaptive packaging achieve line contact, avoiding secondary contamination of the processed optical surface; the optical element adaptive packaging can adapt to the packaging of optical elements of different sizes, reducing design costs.
