Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cylindrical mirror manufacturing, and in particular to a cylindrical mirror mounting and adjusting device and its method of use. Background Technology

[0002] A cylindrical lens is an aspherical lens that can effectively reduce spherical aberration and chromatic aberration. Cylindrical lenses typically include plano-convex cylindrical lenses, plano-concave cylindrical lenses, biconvex cylindrical lenses, biconcave cylindrical lenses, and meniscus lenses, etc. They have one-dimensional magnification capabilities and are widely used in many fields such as linear detectors, barcode scanning, holographic illumination, and optical information processing.

[0003] Currently, after cylindrical mirrors are produced, they still need to undergo manual visual inspection and mechanical re-inspection. After inspection, the cylindrical mirrors are placed in a designated position and moved by robotic arms and other related tools to the placement slot of the placement tray (commonly known as the upper tray). Subsequently, the cylindrical mirrors in the placement tray are polished by polishing equipment.

[0004] However, in order for the cylindrical mirror to be successfully placed into the placement slot, the area of ​​the placement slot is often larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the cylindrical mirror. Currently, the equipment used for mounting the cylindrical mirror usually uses a robotic arm to move the cylindrical mirror to be polished to achieve this. If the robotic arm malfunctions or its drive motor has a problem with precision, the position of each cylindrical mirror in each placement slot may be different. This may result in poor polishing quality due to a certain error between the position of the cylindrical mirror and the set polishing reference position during subsequent polishing. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to improve the quality of subsequent polishing by adjusting the position of the cylindrical mirror after it is mounted on the plate, this application provides a cylindrical mirror mounting and adjusting device.

[0006] The cylindrical mirror upper plate assembly and adjustment device provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: The system includes a frame, a placement tray, a transfer assembly, and an adjustment assembly. A platform is mounted on the frame, and the placement tray is installed on the platform. The placement tray has multiple placement slots for placing cylindrical mirrors, each protruding from the upper surface of the platform and having an opening on the same side. The transfer assembly moves the cylindrical mirrors from the platform to the openings of the placement slots. The adjustment assembly includes a connecting rod, a driving component, and multiple adjusting rods. The driving component is mounted on the platform and connected to the connecting rod. The multiple adjusting rods are connected to the connecting rod and spaced apart along the length of the connecting rod. The multiple adjusting rods are parallel to each other, and multiple adjusting elements are positioned between adjacent adjusting rods, spaced apart along the length of the adjusting rods. The adjusting elements correspond to the openings of the placement slots and are used to move the cylindrical mirrors from the openings of the placement slots into the placement slots.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when the operator places the inspected cylindrical mirror on the platform, the transfer assembly moves the cylindrical mirror to the opening of the placement slot on the placement tray. When there are enough cylindrical mirrors on the placement tray, the drive unit is activated, which drives the connecting rod to move, causing the adjusting parts between the adjusting rods to move closer to the opening of the placement slot. This, in turn, moves the cylindrical mirror from the opening of the placement slot into the placement slot, and finally makes the cylindrical mirror press against one of the side walls of the placement slot. This adjusts the position of each cylindrical mirror in the placement slot, achieving uniformity in the position of each cylindrical mirror in the placement slot. This reduces the precision requirements of the transfer assembly when placing the cylindrical mirror in the placement slot, and also allows for adjustment even if there is a certain deviation in the position of the cylindrical mirror in the placement slot. This provides a uniform benchmark for subsequent polishing equipment when processing the cylindrical mirrors on the placement tray, thereby improving the polishing quality.

[0008] Optionally, the adjusting component includes an adjusting belt with insertion parts at both ends along its length, a connecting boss on the adjusting rod with insertion slots on the connecting bosses, and the insertion parts and insertion slots being connected by an insertion engagement.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the adjusting component includes an adjusting soft band, which prevents it from easily scratching the surface of the cylindrical mirror when it comes into contact with the cylindrical mirror in the placement slot. At the same time, the adjusting soft band can also deform to a certain extent according to the surface in contact with the cylindrical mirror, so as to fit the cylindrical mirror surface more closely. The outer wall of the adjusting rod is provided with a connecting boss, and the boss is provided with an insertion groove. Both ends of the adjusting ribbon are provided with insertion parts, so that the adjusting soft band can be freely disassembled and replaced when it is between two adjusting rods.

[0010] Optionally, the transfer assembly includes a transfer hand, a mounting plate, a vacuum generator, an air duct, and a suction cup. The mounting plate is mounted on the transfer hand, the suction cup is mounted on the mounting plate, one end of the air duct is connected to the suction cup, and the other end of the air duct is connected to the vacuum generator, which is mounted on the transfer hand.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the mounting plate is installed on the transfer hand, the vacuum generator is installed on the transfer hand, and one end of the air guide tube is connected to the suction cup, and the other end of the air guide tube is connected to the suction cup. This allows the transfer hand to adsorb the cylindrical mirror located on the unloading platform by the suction cup when it needs to move the cylindrical mirror, and at the same time start the vacuum generator so that the suction cup can adsorb the cylindrical mirror more tightly, thereby realizing the transfer of the cylindrical mirror on the unloading platform.

[0012] Optionally, a lifting component is provided on the platform. The lifting component is located below the placement tray and is detachably connected to the placement tray. A guide plate is also provided at the bottom of the placement tray. The guide plate is perpendicular to the platform and can slide in a direction perpendicular to the platform. A C-shaped groove is provided on the placement tray. A sliding part adapted to the C-shaped groove is provided on the guide plate. The sliding part is located in the C-shaped groove and slides in cooperation with the C-shaped groove.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the lifting assembly enables the placement tray to be raised and lowered. When the placement tray is in the raised state, the closed ring formed by the adjusting rod and the adjusting component is fitted around the outside of the cylindrical mirror. When the placement tray is in the lowered state, the cylindrical mirror is dislodged from the closed ring. The placement tray and the lifting component are detachably connected, and the placement tray and the guide plate are also connected by a sliding fit between the C-groove and the sliding part. This allows the lifting component to be driven to lower the placement tray when it is necessary to transfer the cylindrical mirror to be polished, thereby pulling out the placement tray and allowing it to be transferred together with the cylindrical mirror.

[0014] Optionally, a limit plate is provided on the outer wall of the guide plate. The limit plate is vertically connected to the guide plate. When the lifting component is at its lowest position, the limit plate abuts against the surface of the platform.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting plate on the guide plate ensures that the guide plate will not fall off the platform when the placement tray is pulled out, and the limiting plate plays a limiting role in the guide plate.

[0016] Optionally, a connecting assembly is provided between the lifting component and the placement tray. The connecting assembly includes a connector and a connector. The connector has an opening groove. The connector is installed on the placement tray. The connector includes a connecting part and a limiting part that are fixedly connected. The connecting part is connected to the lifting component. The limiting part is located in the opening groove and limits the placement tray. When the placement tray slides on the limiting plate, the limiting part can slide out of the connector through the opening groove.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting part is located in the opening groove of the connector, so that when the connecting part moves vertically, the placement plate can move with the movement of the lifting part. The opening groove also allows the placement plate to move smoothly in the horizontal direction when it needs to be pulled out, thereby allowing the limiting part of the connector to disengage from the connector through the opening groove.

[0018] Optionally, the frame is equipped with an air blowing assembly, which includes an air blowing base, an air nozzle, a second lifting component, a connecting pipe, and an air pump. Multiple air nozzles are provided, which are installed on and connected to the air blowing base. Each air nozzle has an adsorption part, and the position of the air nozzle corresponds to the position of the placement slot. The placement tray has perforations for the adsorption part to pass through. The second lifting component is installed on the platform and connected to the air blowing base. One end of the connecting pipe is connected to the air pump, and the other end of the connecting pipe is connected to the air blowing base. The air pump is installed on the frame.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when the second lifting component raises the height of the suction cup by lifting the air blowing seat, so that the adsorption part on the air nozzle can protrude from the placement plate, the air pump changes from air supply to air extraction, thereby causing the adsorption part to come into contact with and adsorb the bottom surface of the cylindrical mirror in the placement groove. Subsequently, the second lifting component further raises the height of the air blowing seat so that the cylindrical mirror can extend out of the placement groove along with the lifting component, reducing the interference of the placement groove on the cylindrical mirror during polishing.

[0020] Secondly, this application also provides a method for using a cylindrical lens assembly and adjustment device, which includes the following steps: S100: The operator places the cylindrical mirror, which has been visually inspected, on the platform, and the transfer assembly moves the cylindrical mirror on the feeding platform into the placement slot of the placement tray; S200: When all the placement slots on the placement plate are filled with cylindrical mirrors, the drive unit is activated. The drive unit moves the connecting rod, so that each adjusting component abuts against the cylindrical mirror in the placement slot, thereby adjusting the position of the cylindrical mirror in the placement slot and fixing the position of each cylindrical mirror. S300: Polishing the cylindrical mirror that has been positioned on the placement plate.

[0021] In summary, this application includes at least the following beneficial technical effects: 1. By adjusting the position of the cylindrical mirror located in the placement slot through the adjustment component, the accuracy of the transfer component when placing the cylindrical mirror in the placement slot is reduced. This also allows for adjustment even if there is a certain deviation in the position of the cylindrical mirror in the placement slot. This enables the subsequent polishing equipment to have a uniform reference when processing the cylindrical mirror on the placement plate, thereby improving the polishing quality.

[0022] 2. By blowing air through the nozzle, when the cylindrical mirror approaches the placement slot and is gradually placed into the slot, the air blown out by the nozzle contacts the bottom surface of the cylindrical mirror, thereby overcoming the gravity of the cylindrical mirror and allowing the cylindrical mirror to move in a near-floating state within the placement slot, thus reducing the friction experienced by the cylindrical mirror during movement.

[0025] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-8 This application will be described in further detail.

[0026] Example 1: Embodiment 1 of this application discloses a cylindrical mirror upper plate mounting and adjusting device, referring to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The system includes a frame 1, a placement tray 2, a transfer assembly 3, and an adjustment assembly 4. A platform 5 is mounted on the frame 1, and a feeding platform 38 is provided on the platform 5. The feeding platform 38 can be conveyed to the platform 5 by a conveyor belt. The placement tray 2 is mounted on the platform 5. The transfer assembly 3 is also mounted on the platform 5 and is located between the placement tray 2 and the feeding platform 38. The transfer assembly 3 can move the cylindrical mirror on the feeding platform 38 from top to bottom to the placement tray 2.

[0027] The placement tray 2 has multiple placement slots 6 protruding from the upper surface of the placement tray 2 and adapted to the cylindrical mirror. Each placement slot 6 has an opening on the same side. The opening of the placement slot 6 is slightly larger than the cross-section of the cylindrical mirror. The two parallel sidewalls inside the placement slot 6 are adapted to the cylindrical mirror. This allows the transfer assembly 3 to place the cylindrical mirror at the opening of the placement slot 6 relatively easily. Subsequently, the positioning assembly 4 moves the cylindrical mirror into the placement slot 6 through the opening until the cylindrical mirror abuts against one of the sidewalls inside the placement slot 6.

[0028] Guide parts are provided on the two parallel side walls near the opening of the placement slot 6. When the cylindrical mirror is moved by the adjustment component 4, the guide parts guide the cylindrical mirror to enter the placement slot 6 through the opening.

[0029] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The adjustment component 4 includes a connecting rod 7, a driving component 9, and multiple adjusting rods 8. The driving component 9 is a double-rod cylinder, and the connecting rod 7 is connected to the movable end of the driving component 9. The multiple adjusting rods 8 are parallel to each other and evenly spaced along the length of the connecting rod 7. Multiple adjusting elements 10 are also provided between two adjacent adjusting rods 8. The multiple adjusting elements 10 are evenly spaced along the length of the adjusting rod 8. The adjusting elements 10 are arranged opposite to the opening of the placement groove 6, thus forming a closed ring around the cylindrical mirror with the placement groove 6.

[0030] The adjusting component 10 includes an adjusting soft belt 11, which has a certain elasticity. At both ends of the adjusting soft belt 11, there are plug-in parts 12 connected by a fixed connection. On the outer wall of the adjusting rod 8, there is a connecting boss 13. The upper surface of the connecting boss 13 is provided with a plug-in groove 14. The plug-in parts 12 on the adjusting soft belt 11 are connected to the plug-in groove 14 by a plug-in engagement, which allows the adjusting soft belt 11 to be replaced in a timely manner after it reaches the end of its service life.

[0031] When the position of the cylindrical mirror on the placement plate 2 needs to be adjusted, the drive component 9 is activated. The drive component 9 retracts, causing the connecting rod 7 to move along with it. This causes the adjusting rod 8 on the connecting rod 7 to move as well. The adjusting soft band 11 located between two adjacent adjusting rods 8 then comes into contact with the outer surface of the cylindrical mirror, causing the cylindrical mirror to press against a certain side of the placement groove 6 within the placement groove 6. This side is the reference surface.

[0032] Furthermore, in order to reduce the damage to the side and bottom surfaces of the cylindrical mirror during movement, protective pads can be installed on the sides and bottom surfaces of the placement slot 6 to protect the cylindrical mirror.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The transfer assembly 3 includes a transfer hand 15, a mounting plate 16, a vacuum generator 17, an air guide tube 18, and a suction cup 19. The transfer hand 15 is mounted on the platform 5 and is located between the placement tray 2 and the unloading platform 38. The vacuum generator 17 is mounted on the transfer hand 15, and the mounting plate 16 is also mounted on the transfer hand 15. The suction cup 19 is mounted on the mounting plate 16. One end of the air guide tube 18 is connected to the vacuum generator 17, and the other end of the air guide tube 18 is connected to the mounting plate 16. The suction cup 19 is connected. When it is necessary to move the cylindrical mirror on the loading platform 38, the transfer hand 15 is activated. The transfer hand 15 moves the suction cup 19 on the mounting plate 16 to the loading platform 38. The suction cup 19 is attached to the cylindrical mirror on the loading platform 38. At the same time, the vacuum generator 17 is activated to make the suction cup 19 more firmly attached to the cylindrical mirror, so as to reduce the probability of the cylindrical mirror falling off the suction cup 19. Subsequently, the transfer hand 15 moves the cylindrical mirror on the loading platform 38 to the placement slot 6.

[0034] Furthermore, in order to improve the transfer efficiency of the transfer hand 15, multiple suction cups 19 arranged in a straight line can be set on the transfer hand 15 within its load-bearing range. The vacuum generator 17 is connected to the multiple suction cups 19 through the air guide tube 18, thereby adsorbing multiple cylindrical mirrors at one time.

[0035] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In order to facilitate the transfer of cylindrical mirrors on the placement tray 2 after the polishing of the cylindrical mirrors, a lifting component 20 is provided below the placement tray 2. The lifting component 20 is installed on the platform 5. The lifting component 20 is also a cylinder. A connecting component 25 is provided between the movable end of the lifting component 20 and the bottom surface of the placement tray 2 to achieve a detachable connection.

[0036] The connecting component 25 includes a connector 27 and a connector 26. The connector 27 is provided with an opening groove 30 and is installed on the bottom surface of the placement tray 2. The connector 26 includes an integrally formed connecting part 28 and a limiting part 29. The connecting part 28 is installed on the movable end of the lifting member 20 by means of a threaded engagement, and the limiting part 29 is located inside the connector 27 so that the placement tray 2 can rise and fall together with the lifting member 20. When it is necessary to remove the placement tray 2, the limiting part 29 slides out from the opening groove 30, thereby disconnecting the connection between the placement tray 2 and the lifting member 20.

[0037] Two guide plates 21 are also provided on the bottom surface of the placement tray 2. A C-shaped groove 22 is provided on the bottom surface of the placement tray 2 corresponding to the guide plate 21. A sliding part 23 that matches the C-shaped groove 22 is provided on one end of the guide plate 21 near the placement tray 2. The sliding part 23 slides in cooperation with the C-shaped groove 22. The other end of the guide plate 21 is vertically slidable on the platform 5, which allows the guide plate 21 to rise and fall together with the placement tray 2.

[0038] To prevent the guide plate 21 from detaching from the platform 5 after the placement tray 2 is pulled out, a limit plate 24 is vertically provided on the side wall of the guide plate 21. This prevents the guide plate 21 from detaching from the platform 5 under its own weight when the sliding part 23 on the guide plate 21 slides out of the C-shaped groove 22 on the placement tray 2.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 An air blowing assembly 31 is installed on the frame 1. The air blowing assembly 31 includes an air blowing base 33, air nozzles 32, a second lifting component 39, a connecting pipe 34, and an air pump 35. The air pump 35 is installed on the frame 1. One end of the connecting pipe 34 is connected to the air pump 35, and the other end of the connecting pipe 34 is connected to the air blowing base 33. The second lifting component 39 is a double-stroke cylinder. The second lifting component 39 is installed on the platform 5, and the movable end of the second lifting component 39 is connected to the air blowing base 33. Multiple air nozzles 32 are provided, and the positions of the air nozzles 32 on the air blowing base 33 are as follows: The positions of the placement slots 6 on the placement plate 2 correspond one-to-one. An adsorption part 36 is provided at the end of the air nozzle 32 away from the air blowing seat 33. The adsorption part 36 can be a suction cup 19 installed at the end of the air nozzle 32. The placement plate 2 is provided with a through hole 37 that is adapted to the adsorption part 36. The through hole 37 is an oblong hole, which allows the adsorption part 36 to extend out of the through hole 37 under the lifting of the lifting member 2 39. This allows the cylindrical mirror in the placement slot 6 to be lifted out of the placement slot 6, thereby increasing the polishing area of ​​the cylindrical mirror in the placement slot 6.

[0040] Before the transplanter moves the cylindrical mirror, the lifting component 20 first lifts the placement tray 2 so that the upper surface of the placement tray 2 abuts against the lower surface of the adjusting rod 8. Then, the lifting component 39 lifts from the lowest position to the limit position of the first stroke, so that the suction part 36 on the air nozzle 32 enters the perforation 37 on the placement tray 2 from below. At this time, the air pump 35 is started so that the air nozzle 32 blows air, and then the transplanter is started to move the cylindrical mirror on the material placement platform 38.

[0041] When the cylindrical mirror is moved by the transplanter to the top of the placement slot 6 and is about to come into contact with the surface of the placement tray 2, the air nozzle 32 occupies a large area in the placement slot 6, so the airflow ejected by the air nozzle 32 can cover the bottom surface of the cylindrical mirror to overcome the weight of the cylindrical mirror itself. This makes the cylindrical mirror almost suspended in the placement slot 6, thereby reducing the friction between the bottom surface of the cylindrical mirror and the bottom surface of the placement slot 6 when the adjusting member 10 moves the cylindrical mirror on the placement tray 2.

[0042] Furthermore, gravity sensors can be installed at various positions on the placement tray 2 where the transfer hand 15 places the cylindrical mirror, and flow control valves that can control the airflow in the connecting pipe 34 are installed on each air blowing seat 33. The gravity sensors can transmit the gravity signal of the cylindrical mirror to the flow control valves, and then the flow control valves can adjust the airflow from the air blowing seat 33. This allows the airflow from the nozzle 32 to be adjusted according to the gravity of the cylindrical mirror, thereby reducing the probability of the cylindrical mirror being blown out of the placement slot 6 due to excessive airflow or the cylindrical mirror not being able to maintain a near-floating state in the placement slot 6 due to insufficient airflow.

[0043] Furthermore, laser sensors can be installed on the bottom surface of each placement slot 6. The laser sensors are electrically connected to the flow control valve. The laser sensors measure the distance between the cylindrical mirror and the bottom surface of the placement slot 6 and transmit the corresponding signal to the flow control valve. This means that when the distance between the cylindrical mirror and the bottom surface of the placement slot 6 is less than the preset value range of the laser sensor, the flow control valve will increase the airflow ejected from the nozzle 32 until the distance between the cylindrical mirror and the bottom surface of the placement slot 6 is within the preset value range. Conversely, when the distance between the cylindrical mirror and the bottom surface of the placement slot 6 is greater than the preset value of the laser sensor, the flow control valve will decrease the airflow ejected from the nozzle 32 until the distance between the cylindrical mirror and the bottom surface of the placement slot 6 is within the preset value range. This reduces the probability of inaccurate airflow adjustment due to errors in the gravity sensor.

[0044] When the adjusting component 10 moves the cylindrical mirror to the predetermined position, the air pump 35 changes from the air supply state to the air extraction state. At the same time, the lifting component 39 further lifts the air blowing seat 33 to the highest position of the second stroke. At this time, the suction part 36 on the air nozzle 32 suctions the bottom surface of the cylindrical mirror and lifts the cylindrical mirror in the placement groove 6, so that the cylindrical mirror is lifted out of the placement groove 6 to reduce the interference of the placement groove 6 on the polishing equipment during the polishing of the cylindrical mirror, so that the area of ​​the cylindrical mirror that can be polished is larger.

[0045] After polishing, the lifting component 39 descends from the highest position of the second stroke to the highest position of the first stroke. The lifted cylindrical mirror then falls back to the upper surface of the placement tray 2. Then, the air pump 35 switches from suction to blowing, which causes the connection between the adsorption part 36 and the bottom surface of the cylindrical mirror to fail. Furthermore, the lifting component 39 drives the blowing seat 33 to descend again to the initial position, which causes the air nozzle 32 and the adsorption part 36 on the air nozzle 32 to disengage from the perforation 37 on the placement tray 2. This allows the operator to subsequently transfer the placement tray 2 containing the polished cylindrical mirror.

[0046] The implementation principle of Embodiment 1 of this application is as follows: First, the cylindrical mirror that has undergone visual inspection and mechanical re-inspection is placed at the designated position on the feeding platform 38. The lifting component 20 lifts the placement plate 2 to the target height, and at the same time, the lifting component 39 also lifts the air blowing seat 33, so that the air nozzle 32 on the air blowing seat 33 enters the placement plate 2 through the perforation 37 on the placement plate 2. At this time, the adsorption part 36 on the air nozzle 32 does not protrude from the upper surface of the placement plate 2. At this time, the air pump 35 is in the air output state, and the airflow is sprayed out from the air nozzle 32.

[0047] Then, the transfer operator 15 is activated, which places the cylindrical mirrors on the loading platform 38 one by one into the placement slots 6 on the placement tray 2. When a sufficient number of cylindrical mirrors have been placed on the placement tray 2, the drive unit 9 is activated, and the movable end of the drive unit 9 retracts, thereby causing the adjustment unit 10 to move the cylindrical mirrors in the placement slots 6 to change their position. During the movement of the cylindrical mirrors, the air nozzle 32 sprays air upwards, making the cylindrical mirrors nearly suspended during the movement, thus reducing friction during the movement of the cylindrical mirrors. After the side wall of the cylindrical mirror abuts against a side wall of the placement slot 6, the position of the cylindrical mirror is adjusted. After the position of the cylindrical mirror is adjusted, the air pump 35 changes from the air output state to the air intake state, and the movable end of the drive unit 9 returns to its original position, so that the adsorption part 36 can adsorb the bottom surface of the cylindrical mirror. Then, the lifting part 39 further lifts, so that the blowing part, while adsorbing the cylindrical mirror, pushes the cylindrical mirror out of the placement slot 6 vertically.

[0048] The equipment for polishing the cylindrical mirror on the placement tray 2 is positioned with the side wall of the placement groove 6 that abuts against the cylindrical mirror as the reference surface. The cylindrical mirror on the placement tray 2 can then be polished after being adjusted. After polishing is completed, the lifting component 29 returns to the lowest position, the air pump 35 stops working, and the lifting component 1 20 gradually lowers until the limiting plate 24 abuts against the upper surface of the table 5. At this time, the suction part 36 on the air nozzle 32 has disengaged from the perforation 37 on the placement tray 2. The placement tray 2 can then be pulled out to transfer the polished cylindrical mirror.

[0049] Example 2: Embodiment 2 of this application discloses a method for using a cylindrical mirror upper plate assembly and adjustment device, which, for the cylindrical mirror upper plate assembly and adjustment device in Embodiment 1 above, includes the following steps: S100: The operator places the cylindrical mirror that has been visually inspected on the feeding platform 38 and starts the air pump 35. The transfer assembly 3 moves the cylindrical mirror on the feeding platform 38 into the placement slot 6 of the placement tray 2. S200: When all the cylindrical mirrors in the placement slots 6 on the placement plate 2 are filled, the drive unit 9 is activated. The drive unit 9 drives the connecting rod 7 to move, so that each adjusting member 10 abuts against the cylindrical mirror in the placement slot 6, thereby adjusting the position of the cylindrical mirror in the placement slot 6 and fixing the position of each cylindrical mirror. S300: Polish the cylindrical mirror on the placement disk 2 after position adjustment.

[0050] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application.
