Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of optical lenses, in particular to a PC substrate anti-fog lens structure. Background Art

[0002] Compared with inorganic glass lenses, PC lenses have become increasingly popular among consumers due to their own advantages, such as light weight, good toughness, and low price. People who wear cycling glasses or helmets with goggles will find that when riding, the human forehead sweats a lot and heat is generated, which causes the lenses to fog up and a layer of fog to appear, resulting in blurred vision. It is also difficult to see clearly without wiping the glasses. Similarly, when wearing a mask, the exhaled hot air will also cause fog on the lenses, which brings great trouble to the user. The principle of fog droplet formation is that the lowering of temperature causes the saturated vapor pressure of water on the lens surface to be lower than the water vapor partial pressure in the air, causing the water vapor to condense into small water droplets. Therefore, in order to avoid the water fog effect on the lens surface affecting the use, we have specially proposed a PC-based anti-fog lens structure. Utility Model Content

[0009] In the PC substrate anti-fog lens structure described in the utility model, the thickness of the adhesive layer is between 1 and 3 mm.

[0010] For the anti-fog lens structure of the PC substrate described in the present utility model, wherein the adhesive layer is any one of nano double-sided tape, organic sealant, and hot melt adhesive.

The protective film is a polyethylene film and its thickness is between 0.03 - 0.05 millimeters.
