Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of lens storage technology, and in particular to a clean storage box for optical lenses. Background Technology
[0002] Optical lenses are optical components used to focus, diverge, or change the direction of light propagation, and are typically made of transparent materials such as glass, plastic, or crystal. These lenses, depending on their shape, material, and manufacturing process, are used in various optical devices and instruments, such as eyeglasses, cameras, telescopes, and microscopes. The main function of optical lenses is to change the path of light through refraction, reflection, or scattering. Depending on the shape and curvature of the lens, light can be focused or diverged, thereby adjusting visual clarity or achieving specific optical effects. During manufacturing, optical lenses require precise grinding and polishing to ensure the optical quality and accuracy of their surface. Furthermore, special coatings are applied to the lenses to improve their light transmittance, abrasion resistance, and anti-reflective properties. In summary, optical lenses are an indispensable component of optical devices and instruments, and their quality and performance directly affect the overall effect of the device and the user experience.
[0003] However, before entering the next process, the lenses are usually stored in batches. During storage, some dust or impurities may adhere to the lenses. Under the influence of dust and impurities, the surface of the lenses is easily scratched during processing. Summary of the Invention

[0018] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.
[0019] This application discloses a clean storage box for optical lenses. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 2The optical lens clean storage box includes a clean box 1, which is an ultra-clean workbench. An air filter is installed inside the clean box 1 to purify the air entering the clean box 1. A placement rack 2 is installed inside the clean box 1, on which lenses are placed. Multiple placement racks 2 can be installed to store a large number of lenses. The placement rack 2 includes multiple rectangular frames 21, which are arranged vertically at intervals. Support rods 22 are installed between adjacent rectangular frames 21. The support rods 22 are vertically arranged to support and connect adjacent rectangular frames 21. Multiple parallel horizontal bars 23 are installed inside the rectangular frames 21. Lenses are vertically clamped between adjacent horizontal bars 23. Clamping grooves 24 are opened on the faces of adjacent horizontal bars 23, and the edges of the lenses are clamped in the clamping grooves 24. When placing the lens, move the lens into the clean chamber 1 and place it on the placement rack 2. Then, snap the edge of the lens into the clamping groove 24. Then, turn on the air filter. The air filter introduces purified air into the clean chamber 1, which reduces the possibility of dust and impurities contaminating or scratching the lens, thereby reducing the possibility of scratching the lens during subsequent processing. At the same time, the air introduced into the clean chamber 1 blows on the lens to remove impurities on the lens and improve the cleanliness of the lens.
[0020] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 Because the edge of the lens is clamped in the clamping groove 24, the part located in the clamping groove 24 is difficult to be blown away by air, which easily leads to the accumulation of impurities in the above part. Therefore, in this embodiment, the crossbar 23 is cylindrical and elongated. The clamping groove 24 is formed on the peripheral wall of the crossbar 23 and is annular. The crossbar 23 is rotatably set in the rectangular frame 21, with its axis of rotation along its length. The rectangular frame 21 is provided with a first driving member for driving the crossbar 23 to rotate, thereby driving the lens to rotate. In this embodiment, the first driving member includes a first motor 3 set in the rectangular frame 21. The crossbar 23 is coaxially set on the output shaft of the first motor 3. After the lens is clamped in the clamping groove 24, the first motor 3 corresponding to the crossbar 23 is started. The first motor 3 drives the crossbar 23 to rotate. The rotation of the crossbar 23 causes the lens to rotate on the crossbar 23. When the lens rotates on the crossbar 23, the clamping part of the lens on the crossbar 23 is changed, thereby facilitating the blowing away of impurities on the lens.
[0021] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3Because the stored lenses come in many sizes, to facilitate the storage of lenses of other sizes, crossbars 23 are slidably mounted on the edge of the rectangular frame 21. The crossbars 23 slide along the length of the edge of the rectangular frame 21, adjusting the distance between adjacent crossbars 23 to accommodate lenses of other sizes. In this embodiment, the rectangular frame 21 has an installation notch 4 on its edge, and a slider 5 is slidably mounted within the installation notch 4. The number of sliders 5 is the same as the number of crossbars 23. A first motor 3 is embedded in the slider 5, and the other end of the crossbar 23 is rotatably mounted within the slider 5. A fixing component is also included. The fixing component is used to fix the crossbar 23 to the position after it slides. The fixing component includes a screw 6 threaded onto the slider 5 and a fixing rod 7 slidably disposed in the slider 5. The fixing rod 7 faces the inner wall of the mounting notch 4. Furthermore, the end of the screw 6 is tapered, and the end of the fixing rod 7 located in the slider 5 is inclined. The end of the screw 6 and the inclined surface of the fixing rod 7 abut against each other. After the crossbar 23 slides to the desired position, the screw 6 is rotated. The rotation of the screw 6 drives the fixing rod 7 to slide. The fixing rod 7 slides and abuts against the inner wall of the mounting notch 4, thereby fixing the slider 5 at the above position. The operation is simple and convenient.
[0022] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 When the stored lens is a convex or concave mirror, the convex surface of the lens can be blown away, but the concave surface of the lens is difficult to blow away. Therefore, in this embodiment, the bottom of the storage chamber 222 of the clean box 1 is provided with an air inlet 8. The air inlet 8 is evenly distributed along the bottom of the storage chamber 222 and surrounds it in a rectangle. The placement rack 2 is located within the rectangle surrounded by the air inlet 8. The air filter is located below the storage chamber 222 of the clean box 1. The air purified by the air filter enters the storage chamber 222 through the air inlet 8. The support rod 22 at the bottom is a telescopic structure and also includes a second driving member for driving the support rod 22 to extend and retract. Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 Furthermore, the support rod 22 located at the bottom includes a sleeve rod 9 fixedly mounted on the rectangular frame 21 and a slide rod 10 slidably sleeved within the sleeve rod 9. The second driving member includes an electric push rod 11 mounted on the sleeve rod 9. The length direction of the output shaft of the electric push rod 11 is parallel to the length direction of the sleeve rod 9. The slide rod 10 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the electric push rod 11. The electric push rod 11 is used to drive the slide rod 10 to slide out from the sleeve rod 9 to adjust the tilt of the placement frame 2 so that the concave surface of the lens faces the bottom of the storage chamber 222.
[0023] After the lens is attached to the placement rack 2, the electric push rod 11 is activated after the convex surface of the lens is cleaned. The electric push rod 11 pushes the slide rod 10 to slide out of the sleeve rod 9, causing the placement rack 2 to tilt from one side. After the placement rack 2 tilts, the lens tilts so that the concave surface of the lens faces the bottom of the storage chamber 222, so that the cleaning air is directed towards the concave surface of the lens to clean the concave surface of the lens, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the lens.
[0024] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 To reduce the possibility of the storage rack 2 tipping over when tilted, a traveling wheel 12 is rotatably provided at the end of the slide rod 10. The axis of rotation of the traveling wheel 12 is perpendicular to the length direction of the crossbar 23. Magnets are spaced apart on the peripheral wall of the traveling wheel 12 and are evenly distributed along the circumference of the traveling wheel 12. The bottom of the storage chamber 222 is a metal plate that is attracted to the magnets. When the electric push rod 11 pushes the slide rod 10 out, the slide rod 10 drives the traveling wheel 12 to roll at the bottom of the storage chamber 222, thus adapting to the tilt of the storage rack 2. Under the action of the magnets, the traveling wheel 12 is attracted to the bottom of the storage chamber 222, thereby reducing the possibility of the storage rack 2 tipping over.
[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 When handling a lens, substances such as acids, salts, and greases on the fingers can corrode the glass surface, causing marks on the optical lens. Therefore, in this embodiment, a suction cup 13 is provided in the storage chamber 222, and a traction rope 14 is provided at the bottom of the suction cup 13. The end of the traction rope 14 is fixedly installed in the storage chamber 222. The traction rope 14 is spiral-shaped and elastic. When the lens is picked up, the suction cup 13 is held and adhered to the concave surface of the lens, and then the lens is taken out of the clean box 1, which improves the cleanliness of the lens. Under the action of the traction rope 14, it is easy to fix the suction cup 13 and pick it up.
[0026] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4When the suction cup 13 is used for a long time, it is easy for it to leave marks on the lens. Therefore, in this embodiment, a cleaning seat 15 is provided in the storage chamber 222. The cleaning seat 15 has a cleaning tank 16, which contains cleaning solution for soaking the suction cup 13. The cleaning solution is cleaning water. A cleaning platform 17 is provided in the cleaning tank 16. The cleaning platform 17 has the same shape as the opening of the suction cup 13 and is rotatably disposed in the cleaning tank 16. A third driving component is provided on the cleaning seat 15 for driving the cleaning platform 17 to rotate and clean the opening of the suction cup 13. The third driving component includes a second motor 18 disposed in the cleaning tank 16, and the cleaning platform 17 is disposed on the output shaft of the second motor 18. After the suction cup 13 is placed in the cleaning tank 16, the second motor 18 is started. The second motor 18 drives the cleaning platform 17 to rotate, and the cleaning platform 17 rotates to clean the opening surface of the suction cup 13, thereby improving the cleanliness of the suction cup 13 and reducing the possibility of the suction cup 13 forming marks on the lens.
[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, a support frame 19 is provided on the cleaning seat 15, and a suction cup 13 is placed on the support frame 19. After the suction cup 13 is placed on the support frame 19, a mounting ring 20 is provided on the support frame 19, and the suction cup 13 is snapped into the mounting ring 20. The suction cup 13 is located directly above the cleaning tank 16. The support frame 19 is a telescopic structure, which drives the suction cup 13 into the cleaning tank 16. Furthermore, a push rod is provided on the support frame 19, and the sliding part of the support frame 19 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the push rod. After the suction cup 13 is snapped into the support frame 19, the push rod is activated, and the push rod drives the suction cup 13 to descend and immerse it in the cleaning liquid, thereby facilitating the cleaning of the open surface of the suction cup 13.
[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 To facilitate the drying of water stains on the suction cup 13, an air inlet is provided on the side wall of the cleaning seat 15. The air inlet is connected to the cleaning tank 16 and the connection is located above the surface of the cleaning liquid. The air inlet is opened at an angle upward and faces the suction cup 13. After the suction cup 13 is cleaned, it is moved upward and removed from the cleaning liquid and placed above the cleaning tank 16. At this time, the air introduced by the air filter enters the cleaning tank 16 through the air inlet and dries the suction cup 13. The operation is simple and convenient.
[0029] The implementation principle of the optical lens clean storage box in this application embodiment is as follows: When placing the lens, move the lens into the clean chamber 1 and place it on the placement rack 2. Then, snap the edge of the lens into the clamping groove 24. Then, turn on the air filter. The air filter introduces purified air into the clean chamber 1, which reduces the possibility of dust and impurities contaminating or scratching the lens, thereby reducing the possibility of scratching the lens during subsequent processing. At the same time, the air introduced into the clean chamber 1 blows on the lens to remove impurities on the lens and improve the cleanliness of the lens.
[0030] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
