[0033] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0034] Refer to Figure 1 - Figure 7 , a base for lens polishing, including a body 1. The body 1 is the main body of the polishing machine and provides support. A polishing box 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the body 1. The polishing box 2 is used to place optical lenses for processing to prevent material splashing during polishing. A hollow block 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the polishing box 2. The hollow block 3 is used to provide support for the power mechanism 4. A power mechanism 4 is arranged on the inner wall of the hollow block 3. The power mechanism 4 includes a motor 41. The output shaft of the motor 41 is fixedly connected to a main shaft 42. The motor 41 and the main shaft 42 provide output. When it is necessary to clamp and fix the lens, the staff starts the motor 41 to drive the main shaft 42 to rotate. A trapezoidal block 48 is elastically connected to the inner wall of the main shaft 42 through a first spring 43. The trapezoidal block 48 can reciprocate on the inner wall of the main shaft 42. A hollow gear ring disc 44 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the main shaft 42. A transmission block 45 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hollow gear ring disc 44. The main shaft 42 drives the trapezoidal block 48 to rotate, so that the trapezoidal block 48 rotates to abut against the transmission block 45. The transmission block 45 can abut against the trapezoidal block 48 to complete transmission, so that the trapezoidal block 48 drives the hollow gear ring disc 44 to rotate through the transmission block 45. A symmetric screw 46 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the hollow block 3. The hollow gear ring disc 44 drives the symmetric screw 46 to rotate through a gear 47. The symmetric screw 46 drives a sliding square block 51 to move. The screw has a self-locking function. Therefore, the symmetric screw 46 plays the functions of transmission and self-locking. A gear 47 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the symmetric screw 46. The gear 47 is used for meshing transmission. A clamping mechanism 5 is arranged on the hollow block 3. The clamping mechanism 5 is used to stably clamp the lens to facilitate subsequent polishing processing. It belongs to the base for lens polishing.

[0035] Refer to Figure 3 - Figure 6 , the clamping mechanism 5 includes a sliding square block 51. The sliding square block 51 moves horizontally when the symmetric screw 46 rotates, so that the two groups of sliding square blocks 51 move inwards or outwards simultaneously to achieve the purpose of clamping the lens. A support arm 53 is hinged to the outer wall of the sliding square block 51. When clamping the lens, the support arm 53 rotates outwards around the hinge point and presses the second spring 54. The outer wall of the support arm 53 is elastically connected to the outer wall of the sliding square block 51 through the second spring 54. A vertical sliding rod 55 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support arm 53. The second spring 54 buffers the impact force when the vertical sliding rod 55 on the outer wall of the support arm 53 touches the lens, avoiding damage caused by rigid contact. A fixed disk 56 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the vertical sliding rod 55. A positioning slider 58 is elastically connected to the outer wall of the fixed disk 56 close to the support arm 53 through a third spring 57. The positioning slider 58 can slide stably up and down on the outer wall of the vertical sliding rod 55. The third spring 57 makes the positioning slider 58 stably touch the lens. A horizontal chute 52 is opened at the top of the hollow block 3. The horizontal chute 52 ensures the stable horizontal sliding of the sliding square block 51. A base mechanism 59 is arranged at the top of the hollow block 3.

[0036] Refer to Figures 3 - 7 , the inner wall of the hollow block 3 is fixed to the bottom of the motor 41, playing a fixing role. The top of the trapezoidal block 48 is an inclined surface, so that when the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block 48 touches the transmission block 45, a force is generated to make the trapezoidal block 48 move towards the inner wall of the main shaft 42. When the clamping force is too large, the trapezoidal block 48 moves towards the main shaft 42.

[0037] Refer to Figures 3 - 7, One end of the first spring 43 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the main shaft 42, and the other end of the first spring 43 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the trapezoidal block 48. Without the influence of external forces, the trapezoidal block 48 is driven by the force of the first spring 43 to keep moving outwards. The outer wall of the hollow gear ring 44 meshes with the outer wall of the gear 47. The transmission blocks 45 are arranged in a circular array on the inner wall of the hollow gear ring 44. When the lens is not being fitted and clamped, the trapezoidal block 48 drives the transmission blocks 45 to rotate and move simultaneously during rotation. The outer wall of the symmetric screw 46 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding square block 51, so that when the symmetric screw 46 rotates, it can drive the sliding square block 51 to move horizontally. The inner wall of the horizontal chute 52 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the sliding square block 51, so that the sliding square block 51 moves stably on the inner wall of the horizontal chute 52. One end of the second spring 54 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support arm 53, and the other end of the second spring 54 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding square block 51, playing a role of elastic connection and avoiding rigid contact between the support arm 53 and the vertical sliding rod 55. One end of the third spring 57 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed disk 56, and the other end of the third spring 57 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the positioning slider 58, so that the positioning slider 58 can squeeze the third spring 57 and move vertically on the surface of the vertical sliding rod 55. When clamping the lens, the third spring 57 drives the positioning slider 58 to closely adhere to the outer wall of the lens. The inner wall of the positioning slider 58 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the vertical sliding rod 55. An arc-shaped chamfer is provided on the outer wall of the side of the positioning slider 58 close to the support arm 53. When the arc-shaped chamfer of the positioning slider 58 abuts the lens, the lens exerts a vertical force on the positioning slider 58, causing the positioning slider 58 to move away from the lens, so that the two positioning sliders 58 separate and abut the upper and lower parts of the lens.

[0038] Refer to Figures 3 - 7 , The base mechanism 59 includes a hollow ring block 591. The bottom of the hollow ring block 591 is fixedly connected to the top of the hollow block 3. The hollow block 3 provides a support and fixation effect for the hollow ring block 591. The top of the hollow block 3 is elastically connected with a suction cup 593 through a fourth spring 592. The inner wall of the hollow ring block 591 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the suction cup 593, so that the suction cup 593 slides vertically stably along the inner wall of the hollow ring block 591. A vertical chute 594 is provided at the top of the hollow ring block 591, which enables the hose 595 to move up and down. The outer wall of the suction cup 593 is fixedly connected with a hose 595. The bottom of the hose 595 is connected to a suction machine, and the suction machine is started to provide and release the hollow effect for the suction cup 593. One end of the fourth spring 592 is fixedly connected to the top of the hollow block 3, and the other end of the fourth spring 592 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the suction cup 593. The fourth spring 592 enables the suction cup 593 to move up and down, so that when the lens is clamped, the suction cup 593 can be finely adjusted up and down according to the different thickness dimensions of the clamped lens, so that the suction cup 593 can tightly adsorb the lens.

[0039] Working principle: Use the clamping arm to place the optical lens to be processed on the top of the suction cup 593. Evacuate the suction cup 593 through the hose 595 so that the lens to be processed is initially adsorbed. At this time, the adsorption force is not sufficient for grinding processing and further clamping is required, which plays a role of preliminary fixation.

[0040] Start the motor 41. The output shaft of the motor 41 drives the main shaft 42 to rotate forward. The main shaft 42 drives the trapezoidal block 48 to rotate forward. The inclined surface of the trapezoidal block 48 abuts against the transmission block 45 and drives the transmission block 45 to rotate forward under the action of the first spring 43. The transmission block 45 drives the hollow gear ring 44 to rotate forward. The hollow gear ring 44 drives the meshing gear 47 to rotate. The gear 47 drives the symmetric screw 46 to rotate. The symmetric screw 46 drives the sliding square block 51 to move in the direction of the lens in the horizontal chute 52. The sliding square block 51 drives the support arm 53, the second spring 54, the vertical slide bar 55, the fixed disk 56, the third spring 57, and the positioning slider 58 to move towards the lens to be polished until the arc chamfered part of the positioning slider 58 abuts against the lens, causing the positioning slider 58 to squeeze the third spring 57 upward, so that lenses of different thicknesses are clamped longitudinally by the upper and lower positioning sliders 58. At this time, the four vertical slide bars 55 also abut against the side of the lens, so that lenses of different diameters are clamped on the plane, facilitating the clamping of lenses of different sizes.

[0041] When the lens is abutted by the vertical slide bar 55, the reaction force received by the first spring 43 increases. At this time, the trapezoidal block 48 is repeatedly squeezed and compressed into the main shaft 42. At this time, the trapezoidal block 48 no longer drives the transmission block 45 to rotate, and the clamping force on the lens no longer increases, preventing the lens from being crushed due to too large clamping force, which plays a role in protecting the lens.

[0042] When it is necessary to release the clamping, start the motor 41 to rotate in reverse. The motor 41 drives the main shaft 42 to rotate in reverse. The main shaft 42 drives the flat part of the trapezoidal block 48 to abut against the transmission block 45, causing the transmission block 45 to rotate in reverse and driving the clamping mechanism 5 to move away from the lens along the above transmission path.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
