Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of surface cleaning devices, in particular to a surface cleaning device for optical lenses. Background Art
[0002] Optical lenses are a special type of lenses that utilize optical principles to correct vision and improve visual quality. Optical lenses can be made of glass or plastic, have different shapes and curvatures, and can refract and reflect light, thus achieving clear imaging of objects. The processing of optical lenses is a complex process involving multiple steps to ensure the quality and performance of the final product. Especially for the surface cleaning of optical lenses, as precision optical components, any dust, fingerprints, grease, or other contaminants on the optical lenses may reduce the light transmittance and imaging quality of the lenses. Most of the existing surface cleaning devices for optical lenses use cleaning liquid to rinse. Although they can clean most of the surface stains of optical lenses, a large amount of residual cleaning liquid and water stains will be generated after rinsing with the cleaning liquid, and they cannot be completely wiped off by the cleaning cloth, resulting in insufficient surface cleanliness, which will directly affect the optical performance and imaging effect.
[0003] After retrieval, in the Chinese patent document (authorized announcement number CN117000654A), the present invention discloses a surface cleaning device for optical lenses, including: a device box, an installation groove one is arranged inside one side of the device box, an installation groove two is arranged below the installation groove one, and sliding grooves two are respectively arranged on both sides of the installation groove two. In the present invention, the cleaning box is manually pulled out, and the optical lens is placed between two clamping pads. The clamping pads clamp the optical lens by squeezing the spring through the clamping rod, and can be adjusted according to the size of the optical lens. The motor rotates to drive the rotating rod to rotate, and the rotating rod rotates to drive the installation frame to rotate. The cleaning liquid is sprayed on the rotating optical lens through the nozzle, making the cleaning effect better. Although this device can clean most of the surface stains of optical lenses, a large amount of residual cleaning liquid and water stains will be generated after rinsing with the cleaning liquid, and they cannot be completely wiped off by the cleaning cloth, resulting in insufficient surface cleanliness, which will directly affect the optical performance and imaging effect.

[0029] Working principle
[0030] When using this optical lens surface cleaning device, first, the clamping jaw cylinder 206 on the air outlet pipe 207 is opened, and the moving clamping jaw 405 grabs the optical lens. The water pressure valve 203 on the water outlet pipe 202 is opened, and the cleaning water is sucked from the water tank 101 into the water outlet pipe 202 and sprayed out from the spray head 205 through the water outlet pipe 202. The motor 409 is turned on. The output end of the motor 409 drives the first gear 407 to rotate in the gear disc 406 through the third connecting rod 414, thereby driving the second gear 408 to reciprocate on the rack 402 through the second connecting rod 413. The second gear 408 drives the bevel gear 411 to rotate, thereby driving the driven bevel gear 410 to rotate, and the pneumatic rod 404 rotates to drive the clamping jaw 405 to rotate. During the cleaning stage, the spray head 205 sprays water to clean the optical lens on the reciprocally rotating clamping jaw 405, and the cleaning sewage flows into the lower waste water tank 3 and can be recycled through the water pipe 301. When the cleaning is completed, the water pressure valve 203 is closed, the pressure valve 204 is opened, and the rotation speed of the motor 409 is increased, so that the reciprocating motion and rotation speed of the clamping jaw 405 are accelerated, and the cleaning water on the optical lens is thrown off the lens. High-speed air is blown out through the air outlet pipe 207 to clean the water on the lens again.
