Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of optical lenses, and in particular to a loading and unloading tool suitable for automatic coating of optical lenses. Background Art
[0002] The raw materials of optical lenses mainly include optical glass, resin, polycarbonate, etc. Among them, optical glass is an important raw material for manufacturing high-precision optical lenses, with the characteristics of high light transmittance, low dispersion and good optical uniformity. Materials such as resin and polycarbonate are widely used in the manufacture of eyeglass lenses, photographic lenses, etc. due to their advantages such as light weight, easy processing and low cost.
[0003] The processing of optical lenses involves a coating process. During the coating process of the lenses, in order to improve the coating efficiency, the lenses are placed on a fixing plate for fixing the lenses, and then the fixing plate is fitted with a fixing cylinder arranged on a coating turntable. The fixing cylinder rotates with the turntable during the coating process. For example, a Chinese patent with application number CN202321429978.0 proposes a method. The utility model relates to the field of lens coating turntables and discloses a turntable for lens coating, including a coating turntable, which is arranged as a whole inside a vacuum coating machine, and the coating turntable includes a turntable, a fixing cylinder is fixedly connected to the outer side of the middle of the top end of the turntable, a plurality of groups of optical lenses are connected to the outer side of the fixing cylinder through a fixing mechanism, a bottom bin is fixedly connected to the middle of the bottom end of the turntable, a plurality of bearings are fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the bottom bin, and a gear ring is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner wall of the bottom bin. The utility model discloses a turntable for lens coating, which can facilitate people to lift the fixed plate upwards through the fixing bar, so that the fixed plate is separated from the fixing column at the bottom, and the unloading process of the fixed plate is completed. The coating turntable can be driven by the stepping motor to rotate as a whole, so that people can unload the remaining fixed plates conveniently. The operation is simple and is conducive to practical use.
[0004] However, the above utility model has the following defects. From the eleventh paragraph of the invention specification, "the staff can install the optical lenses on the fixed plate in sequence, and then start the electric push rod to raise the top plate, and then make the fixing holes at the bottom of the fixed plate correspond to the fixing columns on the turntable, so as to achieve pre-positioning of the fixed plate. When the fixed plate is fully positioned, start the electric push rod again to lower the top plate and allow the fixing columns at the bottom of the top plate to be inserted into the fixing holes at the top of the fixed plate, so as to achieve complete fixation of the fixed plate. After that, people can start the vacuum coating machine to coat the optical lenses through the vacuum coating machine. When the coating is completed, people can open the vacuum coating machine and start the electric push rod to raise the top plate. At this time, the staff can lift the fixed plate upwards through the fixing bar to separate the fixed plate from the fixing columns at the bottom, and complete the unloading process of the fixed plate." It can be known that the fixed plate needs to be manually placed on the fixed plate. When the fixing column is placed on the fixed column in the longitudinal direction, people cannot observe whether the fixing hole is aligned with the fixing column. The problem of misalignment of the hole position may occur in the process of placing the fixing plate. In this process, there will also be production risks caused by the misalignment of the fixing plate, which will undoubtedly cause a certain risk of the fixing plate falling or the lens being damaged; in addition, moving the fixing column on the top plate downward and inserting it into the fixing hole may cause a risk of collision, because the pre-fixation is through the fixing column below, and there will be a margin of activity between the fixing hole and the fixing column. If the fixing plate is slightly skewed, the fixing column on the top plate will not be able to be inserted into the fixing hole, but may directly press down the fixing plate and damage the fixing plate and the lens; and because of manual loading and unloading, the production efficiency is to a certain extent dependent on the physical condition of the workers, the production speed cannot be standardized, and it is difficult to estimate the production capacity; in addition, the utility model does not mention how the lens is fixed in the retaining ring. Summary of the invention

The quick fixing pile is coaxially provided with a second blind hole in the pile body from the top surface, and the second blind hole intersects with the through hole.

[0015] Furthermore, the movable bar is connected to a driven ring coaxial with the lens placement hole through a connecting rod, the driven ring is connected to all the movable bars, and a rotating wrench that is easy to operate is provided on the outer side of the driven ring to facilitate the rotation of the driven ring.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, preferably, a pair of anti-slip bumps 23 are provided at the contact point between the mirror plate 2 and the blanking clamp 3, and the anti-slip bumps 23 are perpendicular to the outer periphery of the mirror plate 2 and protrude outward, and are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the contact point. After the blanking clamp 3 clamps the mirror plate 2, the anti-slip bumps 23 on the upper and lower sides can prevent the mirror plate 2 from falling off.
[0035] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, preferably, the lens fixing device includes a tensioning piece 51 uniformly arranged around the hole wall of the mirror hole 21, a moving rod 52 is arranged on the side of the tensioning piece 51 away from the axis of the mirror hole 21, and the moving rod 52 is coaxially movably arranged in a movable hole 53 opened on the hole wall, the axis of the moving rod 52 intersects and is perpendicular to the axis of the mirror hole 21, and the other end of the moving rod 52 is provided with a first tension spring 54 for pulling the moving rod 52 away from the axis of the mirror hole 21, and the other end of the first tension spring 54 is fixed on a first fixing column 551 away from the side of the moving rod 52, and the first fixing column 551 protrudes perpendicularly to the surface of the mirror plate 2 and away from the rotating cylinder 1; the moving rod 52 is connected to the first tension spring 54. A movable wheel 57 parallel to the mirror-setting plate 2 is fixedly connected below one end; a circle of movable grooves 561 is also provided on the surface of the mirror-setting plate 2 with the axis of the mirror-setting hole 21 as the center of the circle, and a movable bar 562 is movably provided in the movable groove 561, and a second tension spring 563 is provided at one end of the movable bar 562, and the other end of the second tension spring 563 is fixed to the second fixed column 552 on one side of the movable groove 561, and the second tension spring 563 pulls the movable bar 562 toward the movable wheel 57, and the contact surface of the movable bar 562 with the movable wheel 57 is an inclined surface.

[0037] It should be additionally explained that the elastic force of the spring plate 33 needs to be greater than the combined force of the first spring 223 applied to the ejection column 45 and the elastic force of the second spring 46 , and the tension of the second tension spring 563 is greater than the tension of the first tension spring 54 .
[0038] The principle of the present invention is as follows: after the material unloading clamp 3 is installed on the robot arm, the opening and closing of the material unloading clamp 3 is controlled by the robot arm. The point position of the material unloading and the movement logic after reaching the point position are set, so that the material unloading clamp 3 can clamp the mirror plate 2. One side of the spring plate 33 installed on the mounting plate 31 is facing the quick fixing pile 4. Under the action of the robot arm, it moves horizontally toward the quick fixing pile 4, triggering the release mechanism of the quick fixing pile 4. At this time, the material unloading clamp 3 performs a clamping action and moves horizontally to the side away from the rotating cylinder. During the translation process, , the spring plate 33 still continues to apply pressure to the ejection column 45, and the elastic force of the spring plate 33 needs to be greater than the combined force of the component force applied to the ejection column 45 by the first spring 223 and the elastic force of the second spring 46, so for the ejection column 45, the combined force is still downward, that is, the ejection block keeps the ejection column 45 pushing the column so that the locking column 224 can keep being pushed out of the through hole 41 by the ejection block, and the spring plate 33 no longer applies pressure to the ejection column 45 after the clamping claw continues to translate until the locking column 224 leaves the range of the through hole 41. In addition, in the lens fixing device, the tension of the second tension spring 563 is greater than the tension of the first tension spring 54, so that the combined force of the movable wheel 57 in the axial direction of the moving rod 52 is toward the axis of the lens hole 21, and the tensioning sheet 51 is always in a state of pushing toward the axis of the lens hole 21 without rotating the driven ring 58.
[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solution of the present invention can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solution of the present invention, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
