Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lens clamping devices, and in particular to a lens clamping device for an optical lens assembly machine. Background Art

[0002] With the development of automation, the assembly of lenses has gradually abandoned the original manual assembly method and adopted mechanical automated assembly. The lens can be fixed by clamping or vacuum suction, and then moved to the assembly equipment for assembly.

[0003] However, when the lens is hoisted by vacuum adsorption, the position of the vacuum suction cup is fixed and cannot be adjusted. When adsorbing larger lenses, it is easy to cause surface stress concentration and cause slight deformation. When the lens is further protected by the clamping structure, the clamping force is fixed.

[0014] The lens clamping device for an optical lens assembly machine of the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. By adjusting the relative spacing of multiple vacuum cups according to the size of the lens, the vacuum suction force of multiple vacuum cups is evenly distributed to avoid stress concentration that may cause slight deformation of the lens surface; 2. The lens, which is held by the vacuum cup, moves downward relative to the first sleeve, which moves vertically upward. This drives multiple clamping plates to move synchronously toward each other and clamp onto the lens outer frame. The heavier the lens, the greater the downward displacement of the lens relative to the first sleeve, and the stronger the clamping force of the clamping plates on the lens outer frame. In other words, the clamping force of the clamping plates on the lens outer frame is adaptively adjusted according to the weight of the held lens to ensure appropriate stability. Too little clamping force may cause the lens to loosen or fall during movement, while too much clamping force may exceed the elastic limit of the lens material, resulting in irreversible plastic deformation, further protecting the lens clamping. 3. The opening and closing mechanism limits the displacement of the clamping plate, keeping it clamped. Even if the lens falls off due to insufficient suction of the vacuum cup, the clamping plate will keep it in place and avoid damage. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0020] The terms "first," "second," etc. are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood to indicate or imply relative importance or to implicitly specify the quantity of the technical features indicated. Thus, a feature specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features.

[0021] like Figure 1-8As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a lens clamping device for an optical lens assembly machine, comprising an electric guide rail 100, a first sleeve 200, a clamping plate 209, a vacuum suction cup 304, an exhaust mechanism and an opening and closing mechanism. The first sleeve 200 can be vertically lifted and lowered at the lower end of the slide of the electric guide rail 100. Multiple vacuum suction cups 304 are evenly arranged at the lower end of the first sleeve 200 and can move synchronously toward or away from each other in the horizontal direction. Multiple clamping plates 209 are correspondingly arranged on the outside of the vacuum suction cups 304 and move synchronously with the vacuum suction cups 304. The exhaust mechanism is arranged on the bottom end of the slide of the electric guide rail 100 and is used to drive the vacuum suction cups 304 to adsorb the lens. When the first sleeve 200 rises, it drives the adsorbed lens to move downward relatively, so that the multiple clamping plates 209 move synchronously toward each other and clamp on the outer frame of the lens. The greater the relative downward displacement of the lens, the greater the clamping force of the clamping plates 209. The opening and closing mechanism is arranged at the upper end of the first sleeve 200 and is used to activate or limit the displacement state of the clamping plates 209.

[0022] In this embodiment, the lens barrel is sent to the main assembly station via a conveyor belt and a robot arm, the visual system detects the position of the lens barrel, the fixture fixes it and calibrates the central axis, the lens is separated from the vibration plate, and sent to the buffer area via a conveyor belt and a robot arm. Then, the relative spacing of the multiple vacuum suction cups 304 is adjusted according to the size of the lens, so that the vacuum adsorption force of the multiple vacuum suction cups 304 is evenly distributed to avoid stress concentration causing slight deformation of the lens surface. By adjustment, the multiple vacuum suction cups 304 are moved synchronously toward or away from each other in the horizontal direction. After adjusting the appropriate relative spacing, the first sleeve 200 is then driven to move vertically downward, thereby driving the multiple vacuum suction cups 304 to move synchronously vertically downward, thereby driving the vacuum suction cups 304 located outside the vacuum suction cups 304. The plurality of clamping plates 209 move downwardly in synchronization until the bottom end of the vacuum suction cup 304 is in contact with the upper end surface of the lens. The first sleeve 200 stops moving downward, and then the air inside the plurality of vacuum suction cups 304 is evacuated through the air pump mechanism, so that negative pressure is generated inside the vacuum suction cups 304, thereby adsorbing and fixing the lens. At this time, the plurality of clamping plates 209 are located outside the outer frame of the lens, and then the first sleeve 200 moves upwardly in synchronization. Since the lens itself has a certain weight, the lens adsorbed by the vacuum suction cup 304 is displaced downward relative to the first sleeve 200 during the movement of the first sleeve 200, driving the plurality of clamping plates 209 to move toward each other synchronously and clamp on the outer frame of the lens. The greater the weight of the lens, the greater the relative displacement of the lens to the first sleeve 200. The greater the downward displacement of the sleeve 200, the greater the clamping force of the clamping plate 209 on the lens outer frame, that is, the clamping force of the clamping plate 209 on the lens outer frame is adaptively adjusted according to the weight of the adsorbed lens. If the clamping force is too small, the lens may become loose or fall during movement. If the clamping force is too large, it may exceed the elastic limit of the lens material, resulting in irreversible plastic deformation. The first sleeve 200 continues to move upward until the adsorbed lens does not produce relative displacement, and then the adsorbed lens follows the first sleeve 200 to rise vertically to a certain height synchronously, and moves horizontally through the electric guide rail 100. During this process, the displacement state of the clamping plate 209 is limited by the opening and closing mechanism, so that the clamping plate 209 remains clamped, even if the lens is affected by the vacuum suction cup 3 04 Insufficient suction force causes it to fall off, and the clamping plate 209 will keep its position unchanged to avoid damage. When the lens is hoisted to the top of the assembly station, the first sleeve 200 starts to move vertically downward, driving the adsorbed lens to move vertically downward synchronously until the lens is slowly pressed down and embedded in the lens barrel positioning groove. At this time, the exhaust mechanism is closed, and the vacuum suction cup 304 no longer generates negative pressure. At the same time, the displacement state of the clamping plate 209 is activated. At this time, the vacuum suction cup 304 no longer generates relative displacement because it is separated from the weight of the lens and moves in the opposite direction and resets. At the same time, it drives multiple clamping plates 209 to move synchronously away from the outer frame of the lens, and then controls the first sleeve 200 to return to its original position for the next round of clamping. Finally, the thread is locked to fix the lens position. By adjusting the relative spacing of the multiple vacuum suction cups 304 according to the size of the lens, the vacuum adsorption force of the multiple vacuum suction cups 304 is evenly distributed, avoiding stress concentration and causing slight deformation of the lens surface; the first sleeve 200 that moves vertically upward relative to the lens adsorbed by the vacuum suction cups 304 moves downward relatively, driving the multiple clamping plates 209 to move synchronously toward each other and clamp on the lens outer frame, and the greater the weight of the lens, the greater the downward displacement of the lens relative to the first sleeve 200, and the greater the clamping force of the clamping plates 209 on the lens outer frame, that is, based on the lens weight. The clamping force of the clamping plate 209 on the outer frame of the lens is adaptively adjusted according to the weight of the adsorbed lens to ensure moderate stability. Too little clamping force may cause the lens to loosen or fall during movement, while too much clamping force may exceed the elastic limit of the lens material, resulting in irreversible plastic deformation, further protecting the lens clamping. The opening and closing mechanism limits the displacement state of the clamping plate 209, so that the clamping plate 209 remains in a clamped state. Even if the lens falls off due to insufficient suction of the vacuum suction cup 304, the position remains unchanged due to the clamping of the clamping plate 209 to avoid damage.

[0023] like Figure 2 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, optionally, an adjustment mechanism is provided between the first sleeve 200 and the vacuum suction cup 304, the adjustment mechanism including a first circular plate 300, a cross-shaped groove 301, a cross-shaped plate 302, an exhaust pipe 303, a second circular plate 305, an arc-shaped groove 306, a servo motor 307 and a protective cover 308, a plurality of cross-shaped grooves 301 are evenly opened inside the first circular plate 300, a plurality of cross-shaped plates 302 are slidably connected to the inner surface of the corresponding cross-shaped grooves 301, and a plurality of exhaust pipes 303 are provided. 03 is fixed on the inner side of the middle of the corresponding cross-shaped plate 302, the upper end of the vacuum suction cup 304 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the corresponding exhaust pipe 303, the servo motor 307 is fixed on the middle of the upper end of the first circular plate 300 and the output end passes downward through the first circular plate 300 and is fixed with a second circular plate 305, a plurality of arc grooves 306 are evenly opened inside the second circular plate 305, the outer side of the exhaust pipe 303 is in contact with the inner side of the corresponding arc groove 306, and the protective cover 308 is installed on the outside of the servo motor 307.

[0024] In this embodiment, the exhaust pipe 303 is fixed inside the cross-shaped plate 302, and the cross-shaped plate 302 can slide inside the cross-shaped groove 301, so the exhaust pipe 303 can move back and forth along the radial direction of the first circular plate 300 with the vacuum suction cup 304, and the servo motor 307 drives the second circular plate 305 to rotate relative to the first circular plate 300. Since the exhaust pipe 303 contacts the inner side of the arc groove 306, the arc groove 306 rotates and squeezes the exhaust pipe 303 through the inner side to move, and the exhaust pipe 303 is restricted to only move radially, so when the second circular plate When 305 rotates relative to each other, it can drive multiple exhaust pipes 303 to move synchronously toward or away from each other along the radial direction of the first circular plate 300, thereby driving the vacuum suction cup 304 to move synchronously. By adjusting the relative spacing of the multiple vacuum suction cups 304 according to the size of the lens, the vacuum adsorption force of the multiple vacuum suction cups 304 is evenly distributed, avoiding stress concentration and causing slight deformation of the lens surface. The protective cover 308 is used to protect the servo motor 307. Multiple heat dissipation holes are provided on the outside of the protective cover 308 to facilitate heat dissipation of the servo motor 307.

[0025] like Figure 4 As shown, optionally, the inner wall of the first sleeve 200 is coaxially slidably connected to the first piston plate 201, the bottom end of the first piston plate 201 is coaxially fixed with a first spring 202, the bottom end of the first spring 202 is fixed on the inner bottom surface of the first sleeve 200, and the middle part of the first piston plate 201 is fixed with an air pipe 203, the air pipe 203 is located on the inner side of the first spring 202, and the air pipe 203 is slidably connected to the middle part of the bottom end of the first sleeve 200. A sealing ring is provided on the inner side of the middle part of the bottom end of the first sleeve 200, and the bottom end of the air pipe 203 is fixed at the middle position of the upper end of the protective cover 308.

[0026] In this embodiment, when the vacuum suction cup 304 absorbs the lens, the first sleeve 200 then starts to move vertically upward. Since the lens has weight, a downward pulling force is generated on the first piston plate 201 through the vacuum suction cup 304, the adjustment mechanism and the air pipe 203, so that the first piston plate 201 moves vertically downward relative to the first sleeve 200 and compresses the first spring 202. The first spring 202 generates an upward push through deformation. When the force reaches a balance, the lens begins to move vertically upward synchronously with the first sleeve 200. If the vacuum suction cup 304 moves upward directly after absorbing the lens, it will cause instantaneous stress concentration, which may easily damage the lens surface. By slowly increasing the reverse thrust on the first spring 202 until the lens follows and rises synchronously, instantaneous stress concentration is avoided through buffering, and the lens is protected.

[0027] like Figure 4 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, optionally, the bottom end of the first sleeve 200 is fixedly connected to a plurality of evenly distributed oil hoses 204, and the other end of the oil hose 204 is fixedly connected to a second sleeve 205. The inner wall of the second sleeve 205 is slidably connected to the second piston plate 206. A sliding rod 208 is fixedly provided in the middle of the side of the second piston plate 206, and a second spring 207 is sleeved on the outer side of the sliding rod 208. The two ends of the second spring 207 are respectively fixedly connected to the side of the second piston plate 206 and the inner side of the end of the second sleeve 205. A clamping plate 209 is fixedly provided at the end of the sliding rod 208 facing away from the second piston plate 206. The sliding rod 208 is slidably connected to the inner side of the end of the second sleeve 205. The interior of the oil hose 204 and the internal space of the connected first sleeve 200 and second sleeve 205 are filled with hydraulic oil.

[0028] In this embodiment, when the vacuum suction cup 304 absorbs the lens, the first sleeve 200 starts to move vertically upward. Due to the weight of the lens, the vacuum suction cup 304, the adjustment mechanism and the air pipe 203 generate a downward pulling force on the first piston plate 201, causing the first piston plate 201 to move vertically downward relative to the first sleeve 200 and compress the first spring 202. When the first piston plate 201 moves downward relatively, it squeezes the hydraulic oil, and the hydraulic oil enters the internal space of the connected second sleeve 205 through the oil hose 204. The hydraulic oil pressure of the second sleeve 205 increases, pushing the second piston plate 206 to move outward, thereby The sliding rod 208 drives the clamping plate 209 to move outward. At this time, the second spring 207 is compressed, that is, the greater the weight of the lens, the greater the relative downward displacement of the first piston plate 201, the more hydraulic oil is squeezed out, and the greater the force pushing the clamping plate 209 to move outward, that is, the greater the clamping force, thereby realizing adaptive adjustment of the clamping force to ensure moderate clamping and stability; when the lens is no longer adsorbed, the first spring 202 resets and pushes the first piston plate 201 to move upward, the lower end space becomes larger and begins to absorb hydraulic oil, the hydraulic oil in the second sleeve 205 decreases and the pressure decreases, the second spring 207 resets and the clamping plate 209 synchronously moves away from the outer frame of the lens.

[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, optionally, an L-shaped plate 210 is fixedly provided on the outer side of the lower end of the exhaust pipe 303 , and one end of the L-shaped plate 210 facing away from the exhaust pipe 303 is fixedly provided on the outer side of the upper end of the second sleeve 205 .

[0030] In this embodiment, the L-shaped plate 210 is used to make the second sleeve 205 move synchronously with the corresponding exhaust pipe 303, that is, the clamping plate 209 moves synchronously with the vacuum suction cup 304. When the vacuum suction cup 304 adsorbs the lens, the clamping plate 209 is always located outside the lens frame.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, optionally, an anti-slip pad is attached to the inner side of the clamping plate 209.

[0032] In this embodiment, the provision of the anti-slip pad not only improves the clamping stability but also plays a buffering and protective role.

[0033] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, optionally, the vacuum mechanism includes an vacuum pump 400, a first hose 401, a fixed tube 402, a second hose 403 and a third hose 404. The vacuum pump 400 is fixed on the bottom end of the slide of the electric guide rail 100. The air inlet end of the vacuum pump 400 is fixedly connected to the first hose 401. The air inlet end of the first hose 401 is fixedly connected to the fixed tube 402. The fixed tube 402 is fixed inside the upper end of the first sleeve 200. The bottom end of the fixed tube 402 is fixedly connected to the second hose 403. The air inlet end of the second hose 403 is fixedly connected to the air outlet end of the air supply pipe 203. The side wall of the air supply pipe 203 is fixedly connected to multiple third hoses 404. The air inlet end of the third hose 404 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the corresponding vacuum pipe 303.

[0034] In this embodiment, the vacuum pump 400 is started to evacuate the fixed tube 402 through the first hose 401, and then evacuate the air in the air supply pipe 203 through the second hose 403, and then evacuate the air in the exhaust pipe 303 through the third hose 404, and then evacuate the air in the vacuum suction cup 304. Here, the first hose 401, the second hose 403 and the third hose 404 can all be telescopically deformed to adapt to structural movement changes.

[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, optionally, the opening and closing mechanism includes a vent pipe 500 and a solenoid valve 501 . The vent pipe 500 is fixed inside the upper end of the first sleeve 200 . The vent pipe 500 is connected to the interior of the first sleeve 200 . The solenoid valve 501 is fixedly installed on the vent pipe 500 .

[0036] In this embodiment, the upper space of the first piston plate 201 is connected to the outside through the ventilation pipe 500, and the ventilation pipe 500 is controlled to be on and off by the solenoid valve 501. When the solenoid valve 501 closes the ventilation pipe 500, the upper space of the first piston plate 201 is a closed space. At this time, the first piston plate 201 cannot move vertically, that is, the hydraulic oil at the lower end will not change, that is, the hydraulic oil pressure in the second sleeve 205 remains unchanged, that is, the clamping force of the clamping plate 209 will not change, even if the vacuum suction cup 304 falls off, the lens will not fall off due to the clamping.
