Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ophthalmic medical testing equipment, in particular to an optometry instrument. Background Art

[0002] The ophthalmometer emits a beam of infrared light of a specific wavelength, which passes through the cornea, lens, aqueous humor, retina and other eye organs, and finally projects onto the retina of the eye. It is then reflected back to the corresponding optical system of the instrument and then received by the CCD. The light signal is converted into an electrical signal, and the data such as the spherical lens, cylindrical lens and axial position are decomposed to obtain parameters such as the refractive power of the eye being examined.

[0003] During measurement, the operator controls the movement of the instrument forward, backward, left, right, up and down by hand, captures the pupil of the subject's eye, aligns with the pupil of the eyeball, presses the measurement key, and the measurement result will be displayed on the screen.

[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model is achieved through the following technical measures: an ophthalmometer, including a base, on which a forward and backward running component for controlling the forward and backward movement of a frame part is arranged, wherein the forward and backward running component includes a motor providing rotational power, the motor is fixed to a guide rail seat through a motor bracket, the motor is connected to a screw, and the screw is fixed to the upper surface of a slider through a screw sleeve, guide wheels are arranged on both sides of the lower bottom surface of the slider, and cylindrical shafts are arranged on both side surfaces of the guide rail seat, and the guide wheels roll and operate close to the cylindrical shaft.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the advantages that: by setting guide wheels on both sides of the bottom surface of the slider, setting cylindrical shafts on both sides of the guide rail seat, the guide wheels roll closely against the cylindrical shafts. This external dual-axis linear guide replaces the traditional linear bearing, does not get hot when running at high speed, runs stably, has low noise, and has a long service life.

[0009] As an improvement of the utility model, the guide rail seat is a frame structure, and threaded holes are arranged on both inner sides of the frame. The purpose of selecting this design is that the frame structure can ensure the working strength of the guide rail seat, and at the same time, threaded holes can be arranged in the gaps thereof, and the matching clearance between the cylindrical shaft and the guide wheel can be adjusted by positioning bolts.

[0010] As an improvement of the utility model, the two sides of the guide rail seat are provided with arc grooves, and the cylindrical shaft can be placed vertically in the arc grooves, but can be wrapped by the arc grooves horizontally and will not fall out. The purpose of selecting this design is that the arc groove can wrap the cylindrical shaft and prevent it from falling out, and then fix the cylindrical shaft with positioning bolts to form a linear guide rail.

[0011] As an improvement of the utility model, the guide wheel is a U-shaped single wheel. The purpose of selecting this design is: the U-shaped surface is a concave surface, and the cylindrical shaft is a convex surface. The two cooperate with each other, with a large contact area, uniform force, stable operation, low noise, and no heat. The U-shaped single wheel is fixed by the central axis and the slider inside it, and there will be no interference on the side. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
