Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of milling, in particular to a milling device and method for optical crystal. BACKGROUND

[0002] As the core component of precision optical instruments, the edge processing precision of optical crystal directly affects the imaging quality and performance stability of the optical system. In the processing flow of optical crystal, milling deburring is one of the key processes, which needs to achieve high-precision trimming of the crystal edge while strictly avoiding damage to the crystal optical surface, edge cracking and other problems. The existing optical crystal milling device still has many technical defects in actual application, which is difficult to meet the high-precision processing needs of sensitive optical crystals such as multi-layer film and soft and brittle. Firstly, the positioning stability is poor, and the crystal is easy to deviate. The existing device mostly uses single clamping or adsorption positioning method, which is difficult to balance positioning accuracy and fixing reliability. Some devices use multiple positioning wheels for positioning, which need to be opened as a whole to avoid the milling cutter during milling, resulting in the loss of effective clamping of the crystal and the deviation of the crystal, which further affects the milling precision. Moreover, the positioning mechanism has poor adaptability and is difficult to compatible with optical crystals of different sizes, which needs frequent manual adjustment, and the operation is complicated and the stability is insufficient. Secondly, the pre-milling cleaning is missing or incomplete, which is easy to damage the crystal surface. The edge of the optical crystal is easy to attach dust and fine impurities. The existing device mostly does not set a special pre-cleaning mechanism, or the cleaning mechanism has poor linkage with the milling mechanism. The impurities are easy to be extruded by the milling cutter during milling, which causes scratches on the surface of the crystal and damage to the optical surface. Especially for multi-layer film and soft and brittle optical crystal, the existence of impurities will also exacerbate the wear of the milling cutter, reduce the deburring precision and affect the processing quality. Thirdly, the dust collection effect is not good, which pollutes the environment and affects the processing continuity. The crystal debris generated during milling is easy to splash. The existing dust collection mechanism is mostly fixed position dust collection, which is difficult to follow the milling cutter to move and realize precise dust collection, resulting in that the debris cannot be collected in time, which not only pollutes the working environment, but also easily attaches to the surface of the crystal again, further damaging the optical performance. At the same time, the accumulation of debris in the milling area will affect the milling continuity, which needs to be frequently stopped for cleaning, reducing the processing efficiency and increasing the labor cost. Therefore, we propose a milling device and method for optical crystal. SUMMARY

The first bevel gear (405) and the second bevel gear (406) are meshed together.

5. The milling apparatus for optical crystals according to claim 2, characterized in that: The outer surface of the rotating rod (8) is fixedly connected to a second gear (9), and the inner surface of the mounting bracket (201) is fixedly connected to an internal gear ring (10), which meshes with the second gear (9).

6. The milling apparatus for optical crystals according to claim 3, characterized in that: The upper surface of the dust collection bin (303) is rotatably connected to a vacuum suction cup (11), and the lower surface of the vacuum suction cup (11) is connected to the support tube (5).

7. The milling apparatus for optical crystals according to claim 2, characterized in that: The upper surface of the frame (1) is rotatably connected to a positioning rod (12) via a bearing. The outer surfaces of the positioning rod (12) and the rotating tube (6) are both fixedly connected to a third gear (13). The two third gears (13) are meshed together. The rotating rod (8) and the mounting rod (404) are connected by a conveyor belt. A motor is installed on the inner surface of the frame. The output end of the motor is fixedly connected to the positioning rod (12).

8. The milling apparatus for optical crystals according to claim 1, characterized in that: The mounting bracket (201) is fixedly connected to the frame (1). An electric slide rail (15) is installed on the outer surface of the frame (1). A sliding seat (16) is slidably connected to the outer surface of the electric slide rail (15). A milling cutter (17) is installed on the lower surface of the sliding seat (16).

9. A milling method for optical crystals, applied to the milling apparatus for optical crystals according to any one of claims 1-8, characterized in that: Includes the following steps: S1: The positioning wheel (210) initially positions the optical crystal around its perimeter, while the vacuum suction cup (11) uses negative pressure to adsorb the bottom of the crystal, forming a double fixation. S2: The rotating rod (8) rotates by meshing with the internal gear ring (10) through the second gear (9), and synchronously drives the mounting rod (404) to rotate via the conveyor belt. The mounting rod (404) drives the wiping roller (401) to rotate through the bevel gear, so as to perform rotation cleaning on the crystal edge in advance. S3: The electric slide rail (15) drives the milling cutter (17) to move, deburring the crystal. The incomplete toothed ring (204) rotates along the milling path with the rotating ring (203), only meshing with a single first gear (206) on the path, driving the corresponding positioning wheel (210) to retract backward to avoid the milling cutter (17), while the remaining positioning wheels (210) remain clamped to prevent deviation. S4: After the incomplete toothed ring (204) leaves, the corresponding positioning wheel (210) immediately resets, and at the same time, the dust collection head (301) rotates synchronously with the milling cutter (17), and the air pump (304) starts to form a negative pressure circuit to adsorb milling debris in real time. S5: The milling cutter (17) completes deburring, the electric slide rail (15) drives the milling cutter (17) to reset, the motor stops, the vacuum suction cup (11) releases pressure, the wiping roller (401) stops rotating, and the entire milling deburring operation is completed.
