Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of lenses, in particular, relates to a lens air tightness tester. BACKGROUND

[0002] As a key optical element, lenses are widely used in various optical instruments, photographic and video equipment, laser systems and medical equipment and many other fields, and the performance of lenses directly affects the optical quality and running stability of related equipment. Air tightness is one of the important indicators to measure the quality of lenses. Good air tightness can effectively prevent external moisture, dust and other impurities from entering the lens, avoid the decline of lens optical performance, mold spots, coating falling and other problems caused by internal environment changes, and thus ensure that the lens can play its optical function stably in various complex environments for a long time.

[0003] The existing lens air tightness test equipment usually needs manual operation to take out the lens from the test seat during unloading. Since the internal space of the test seat is small, and the lens may be tightly attached to the test seat due to the extrusion of the test cover during the test process, it is not convenient to manually take out the lens. Not only a lot of time and labor are consumed, but also the lens may be damaged or scratched due to improper operation, affecting the appearance quality and optical performance of the lens. Moreover, the connection between the test cover and the test base in the existing test equipment is relatively simple, and ordinary plane contact or simple buckle connection is usually adopted. This connection mode cannot guarantee the complete attachment between the test cover and the test base, and small gaps may be easily generated at the connection. When the gas is filled into the test cover for air tightness detection, the gas may easily leak out of these gaps, resulting in unstable internal pressure of the test cover. This not only affects the accuracy of the judgment of the lens air tightness, but also may misjudge some lenses with unqualified air tightness as qualified due to gas leakage, causing losses to users after entering the market. Therefore, we propose a lens air tightness tester. SUMMARY
