The drive motor 47, bearing seat 48 and fixing block 40 are all fixedly mounted on the lifting plate 53. The lifting motor 55 drives the ball screw 54 to rotate, so that the nut pair 52 and the lifting plate 53 move up and down along the ball screw 54 together. In turn, the lifting plate 53 drives the lens cleaning mechanism 4 to move up and down, so that the rubbing component 41 moves closer to and away from the lens, making it convenient to install the lens on the lens clamping mechanism 3 or to clean the lens.

[0025] exist Figure 3 and Figure 6In the lens cleaning mechanism 4, there is a rubbing assembly 41. A guide sleeve 43 is fixedly connected to the upper end of one side of the rubbing assembly 41. A guide arm 42 is slidably connected through the inner side of the guide sleeve 43. A swing arm 44 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the guide sleeve 43. A rotating arm 45 is rotatably connected to one end of the swing arm 44. A rotating shaft 49 is fixedly connected to the lower side of one end of the rotating arm 45. A pulley assembly 46 and a bearing seat 48 containing a bearing are respectively installed on the rotating shaft 49. A drive motor 47 is installed on the lower side of one end of the pulley assembly 46. The drive motor 47 drives the pulley assembly 46 and the rotating shaft 49 to rotate together, so that the rotating arm 45 rotates around the bearing seat 48. During the rotation, the rotating arm 45 repeatedly pulls and pushes the swing arm 44, thereby driving the guide sleeve 43 and the rubbing assembly 41 to move back and forth along the guide arm 42, so as to realize the rubbing and cleaning of the lens by the rubbing assembly 41.

[0026] exist Figure 6 and Figure 7 In the process, the rubbing assembly 41 includes a dispensing box 411 fixedly connected to the guide sleeve 43. The lower end of the dispensing box 411 is evenly provided with bristles 414, and a partition plate 413 is provided on the inner side of the dispensing box 411 to divide its interior into two independent cavities. The upper end of one cavity is connected to a water inlet 415, and the upper end of the other cavity is connected to a liquid inlet 412. Several holes are provided at the lower end of each cavity to connect the liquid inlet 412 to the external cleaning solution and the water inlet 415 to the external clean water. The cleaning solution and clean water enter the two independent cavities in the dispensing box 411 respectively, and then flow down along the bristles 414 through the corresponding holes. First, the cleaning solution removes the oil and impurities on the lens, and then the clean water rinses away the cleaning solution on the lens.

[0027] Preferably, a filter screen 2 is installed on the inner side of the cleaning tank 1 at the lower end of the lens clamping mechanism 3, and a drain port 6 is provided at the lower end of the outer side of the cleaning tank 1. The filter screen 2 can filter the cleaning liquid and prevent the lens from accidentally falling into the lower side of the cleaning tank 1. The cleaning liquid can be discharged through the drain port 6.

[0028] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the lens to be cleaned is placed between the forward retaining ring 31 and the reverse retaining ring 32. The lead screw motor 38 is started, which drives the forward lead screw 34 and the reverse lead screw 37 to rotate simultaneously, so that the forward nut pair 35 and the reverse nut pair 36 move towards each other, thereby bringing the forward retaining ring 31 and the reverse retaining ring 32 closer together, and clamping the lens by the forward retaining ring 31 and the reverse retaining ring 32.

[0029] Next, connect the liquid inlet 412 to the external cleaning liquid and the water inlet 415 to the external clean water. Then start the lifting motor 55, which drives the ball screw 54 to rotate, so that the nut assembly 52 and the lifting plate 53 move up and down along the ball screw 54 together. Then, the lifting plate 53 drives the lens cleaning mechanism 4 to move up and down, so that the bristles 414 on the rubbing assembly 41 are in close contact with the lens.

[0030] Next, the drive motor 47 is started, which drives the pulley group 46 and the rotating shaft 49 to rotate. This causes the rotating shaft 49 and the rotating arm 45 to rotate around the bearing seat 48. During the rotation, the rotating arm 45 pulls the swing arm 44, which in turn drives the guide sleeve 43 and the rubbing component 41 to move back and forth along the guide arm 42, so as to rub and clean the lens with the brush bristles 414. At the same time, the cleaning solution and the clean water enter the two independent cavities in the liquid separator 411, and then flow down the brush bristles 414 through the corresponding holes. First, the cleaning solution removes the oil and impurities on the lens, and then the clean water rinses off the cleaning solution on the lens, ensuring the cleanliness of the soaking.
