[0031] Please continue reading Figure 1 , a base 100 serving as a support base, the top of the base 100 being threadedly connected to a material placement plate 110;

[0032] Please continue reading Figure 1-3 , the X-axis motion component 200 is connected to the base 100 and provides motion power in the X-axis direction;

[0033] The X-axis motion component 200 includes a connecting frame 210 threadedly connected to the top of the base 100, and a cylinder 220 threadedly connected to the end of the connecting frame 210. A slide groove 211 is formed on the outer side of the connecting frame 210, and a slide seat 221 is connected to the movable end of the cylinder 220 to slide in the slide groove 211.

[0034] action:

[0035] The cylinder 220 works, driving the mounting frame 310 to slide along the top of the connecting frame 210, thereby changing the Y-axis moving component 300 to translate along the X-axis direction;

[0036] Please continue reading Figure 1-3 The Y-axis motion component 300 is connected to the X-axis motion component 200, moves synchronously with the X-axis motion component 200, and provides Y-axis motion power to achieve X-axis and Y-axis bidirectional motion;

[0037] The Y-axis motion component 300 includes a mounting frame 310 that is threadedly mounted on the slide 221 and slides along the top of the connecting frame 210. A servo motor 320 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the mounting frame 310. The output end of the servo motor 320 extends into the mounting frame 310. The output end of the servo motor 320 is connected to a threaded screw 321. A threaded seat 330 is threadedly mounted on the threaded screw 321. A guide groove 311 is defined at the top of the mounting frame 310, and the threaded seat 330 slidably engages with the guide groove 311.

[0038] action:

The port of the bellows 530 is connected to an air duct 531, and the end of the air duct 531 is arranged above the corresponding material loading plate 110;

[0045] action:

[0046] The driving gear 510 rotates along with the screw rod 321, driving the driven gear 511 to rotate, causing the fan blades 521 to rotate in the bellows 530 to generate wind. The wind acts on the material receiving plate 110 through the air duct 531 to remove dust or debris from the surface of the optical lens.

[0047] Working principle: When the utility model is in use, the cylinder 220 drives the mounting frame 310 to slide along the top of the connecting frame 210, thereby changing the Y-axis moving component 300 to translate along the X-axis direction, and cooperates with the Y-axis moving component 300 to realize the bidirectional movement of the material taking and placing component 400 along the X and Y axes, thereby increasing the working range and realizing automatic picking up of the lens to be tested. At the same time, the driving gear 510 rotates following the threaded screw 321, and the driving gear 510 drives the driven gear 511 to rotate, so that the fan blades 521 rotate from the bellows 530 to generate wind force, and the wind force acts on the material placing plate 110 through the air duct 531 to remove floating dust or debris on the surface of the optical lens.
