Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of glass lens molds, in particular to a mold for pressing a high borosilicate glass lens. Background Art

[0002] The production of flat glass lenses is a highly specialized process, centered around a precise and complex pressing process. Using specialized molds and high-pressure equipment, molten glass is precisely pressed into a lens shape with the curvature and optical properties required for a wide range of optical applications.

[0003] Currently, flat glass lens products produced through the pressing process generally have the characteristics of being relatively small in height and having a shape similar to a flat plate. This characteristic makes it very easy to generate tiny glass chips during the lens molding process. These glass chips are mainly generated due to two reasons: first, the glass solution cools too quickly during the pressing process, which increases its internal stress and easily produces tiny cracks and fragments; second, some of the glass solution accidentally enters the gap between the pressing head and the mouth ring during the pressing process. This part of the glass is also prone to forming fragments when it is cooled. Due to its small size and difficulty in complete control, these tiny glass chips are often scattered on the surface of the product or embedded in its tiny structure, posing great challenges to subsequent inspection, cleaning and processing. Not only does it seriously affect the appearance quality of the product, it may also have an adverse effect on the optical performance of the lens, thereby reducing the product's qualification rate and market competitiveness.

[0004] Therefore, how to effectively reduce or even completely eliminate the glass debris generated during the pressing process has become one of the key issues in improving the quality and efficiency of flat glass lens production. We urgently need a pressing mold that can solve the above technical pain points. Utility Model Content

[0028] The bottom edge of the punch 1 is provided with a 0.5 mm high annular protrusion 4 to prevent the glass liquid from approaching the gap between the punch 1 and the mouth ring 2;

[0029] A plurality of heat-insulating blocks 5 are provided at the bottom end of the bottom mold 3 , and a groove 8 with a depth of 15 mm is provided in the middle of the upper surface of the heat-insulating block 5 .

[0030] Preferably, in this embodiment, a plurality of positioning key slots are provided at the bottom end of the bottom mold 3 , and a plurality of positioning keys are provided at corresponding positions of the mouth ring 2 . The positioning keys are used in conjunction with the positioning key slots to lock and fix the mouth ring 2 and the bottom mold 3 .

[0031] Preferably, the positioning key slot is composed of two square protrusions 7 arranged opposite to each other, the positioning key is arranged between the two protrusions 7, and the two protrusions 7 clamp the positioning key to form a stable fixation.

[0032] Preferably, in this embodiment, a detachable wear-resistant block 6 is provided on the inner side of the protrusion 7. The specific connection method is that a transverse through hole is opened in the protrusion 7, and a transverse screw hole is opened at the corresponding position of the wear-resistant block 6. The protrusion 7 and the wear-resistant block 6 are connected by bolts. This device can prevent the positioning key groove from being worn out due to long-term use.
