DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The following will be combined with the embodiments to clearly and completely describe the technical solution of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0021] See also Figure 1-3 , the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0022] A protective device for lens processing, suitable for protecting the edge of a lens when a grinding device is grinding the lens, comprises a base 201 slidably mounted on a workbench 101 of the lens processing device, the displacement of the base 201 on the workbench 101 is controlled by a driving mechanism (not shown in the figure), and the driving mechanism here can use a common screw nut mechanism. At the same time, a rotating shaft can be installed on the lens processing device, and the moving direction of the base 201 is perpendicular to the central axis of the rotating shaft, and the lens to be ground can be fixedly mounted on one end of the rotating shaft by vacuum adsorption.

[0023] In order to prevent the debris generated by grinding from splashing everywhere during lens grinding to cause safety accidents, a protective device is installed on the base 201. The protective device includes an upper protective shell 301, a lower protective shell 302, a mounting seat 303 mounted on the base 201, and an opening and closing mechanism mounted on the mounting seat 303. The upper protective shell 301 and the lower protective shell 302 form a protective cavity after closing, and the opening and closing mechanism is used to control the opening and closing of the upper protective shell 301 and the lower protective shell 302; a grinding channel 401 and a circular channel 501 are formed between the upper protective shell 301 and the lower protective shell 302, one end of the grinding channel 401 is connected to the outside, and the other end is connected to the circular channel 501, the extension direction of the grinding channel 401 is the same as the moving direction of the base 201, and the central axis of the circular channel 501 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the base 201.

[0024] In this embodiment, the grinding channel 401 is used for the grinding wheel 703 to pass through, and the circular channel 501 is used to accommodate the rotating shaft for mounting the lens to be ground.

[0025] Specifically, the upper protective shell 301 and the lower protective shell 302 are both hinged to the mounting seat 303, and the opening and closing mechanism includes an upper hydraulic rod 304 and a lower hydraulic rod 305 that act synchronously. The upper hydraulic rod 304 and the lower hydraulic rod 305 are symmetrically installed on the mounting seat 303. One end of the upper hydraulic rod 304 is hinged to the mounting seat 303, and the other end is hinged to the upper protective shell 301; one end of the lower hydraulic rod 305 is hinged to the mounting seat 303, and the other end is hinged to the lower protective shell 302. In this embodiment, the mounting seat 303 is designed as a hollow structure, and the upper hydraulic rod 304 and the lower hydraulic rod 305 are both installed in the mounting seat 303, so as to protect the two hydraulic rods.

[0026] When the upper protective shell 301 and the lower protective shell 302 are moved into place and closed, the contact between the grinding wheel 703 and the lens during grinding will generate vibration. If the distance between the rotating shaft and the shell is small, and if this vibration is large, the rotating shaft may contact the upper shell or the lower shell. If the vibration causes the upper shell or the lower shell to be misaligned, it will affect the protective effect of the shell. Therefore, a limiting mechanism is specially designed. The limiting mechanism includes a number of elastic limiting rods 601, some of which are installed on the upper protective shell 301, and the other part of the elastic limiting rods 601 are installed on the lower protective shell 302. All elastic limiting rods 601 are located on the same side of the upper protective shell 301 and the lower protective shell 302. The elastic limiting rods 601 are distributed in a circular array, and the center line of the array is collinear with the central axis of the circular channel 501; the radius of the circular area enclosed by the free ends of the elastic limiting rods 601 is smaller than the radius of the circular channel 501. This design can prevent the rotating shaft from directly contacting the shell when it vibrates, so as to affect the protective effect of the shell. At the same time, the plurality of elastic limiting rods 601 can also absorb a portion of the vibration generated by the rotating shaft during grinding, counteracting the tiny radial displacement of the rotating shaft during the grinding process, so as to reduce the influence of the rotating shaft vibration on the grinding accuracy.

[0027] The lens processing technology includes not only the process of grinding the lens, but also other processes. If there is no grinding device on some lens processing devices, and the edge of the lens needs to be ground at the same time, a separate grinding device needs to be used to grind the lens. In order to cope with this situation, in order to facilitate the grinding of the edge of the lens, an auxiliary grinding device is installed on the lower protective shell 302, which includes a guide rail 701 installed on the lower protective shell 302, a drive motor 702 slidably connected to the guide rail 701, and a grinding wheel 703 installed on the output shaft of the drive motor 702. The moving direction of the drive motor 702 is the same as the extension direction of the grinding channel 401, and the grinding wheel 703 can move in the grinding channel 401. Similarly, the back and forth movement of the drive motor 702 on the guide rail 701 can also be driven by a screw nut mechanism (not shown in the figure).

[0028] The debris generated by the grinding wheel 703 during the grinding of the lens edge is blocked by the upper protective shell 301 and the lower protective shell 302, and finally accumulates in the lower protective shell 302. In order to facilitate the cleaning of the debris, the bottom of the lower protective shell 302 is connected with a discharge pipe 801, and the discharge pipe 801 can be connected to a waste collection device (this is the prior art, so it is not shown in the figure). At the same time, a waste collection bucket can be placed at the end of the discharge pipe 801, and the waste generated during the grinding process can be directly discharged into the waste collection bucket through the discharge pipe 801.

[0029] Because the mounting seat 303 in this embodiment is designed as a hollow structure, the two hydraulic rods are located inside the mounting seat 303. In order to prevent the upper and lower ends of the mounting seat 303 from restricting its rotation when the two hydraulic cylinders rotate, avoidance grooves 901 are designed at both ends of the mounting seat 303.

[0030] Working principle:

[0031] Before grinding, the upper hydraulic rod 304 and the lower hydraulic rod 305 are started first, so that the upper hydraulic rod 304 and the lower hydraulic rod 305 are contracted at the same time, and the upper protective shell 301 and the lower protective shell 302 are separated. Then the driving mechanism for driving the base 201 to move is started, so that the two protective shells move toward the lens. When the lens to be ground is located between the two protective shells and the rotating shaft for mounting the lens is in the circular channel 501, the driving mechanism for driving the base 201 to move stops moving. At this time, the upper hydraulic rod 304 and the lower hydraulic rod 305 are extended at the same time, so that the upper protective shell 301 and the lower protective shell 302 are closed. After the two protective shells are closed, the two hydraulic rods stop extending and maintain the current state. Then the driving motor 702 works to drive the grinding wheel 703 to rotate, and then the driving motor 702 moves toward the lens under the drive of the corresponding driving mechanism. After the grinding wheel 703 contacts the edge of the lens, grinding can begin.

[0032] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model. It should be understood that the utility model is not limited to the form disclosed herein, and should not be regarded as excluding other embodiments, but can be used in various other combinations, modifications and environments, and can be modified within the scope of the concept described herein through the above teachings or the technology or knowledge of the relevant field. The changes and modifications made by those skilled in the art do not deviate from the spirit and scope of the utility model, and should be within the scope of protection of the claims attached to the utility model.
