Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of glass polishing equipment, and in particular to a novel optical glass grinding and polishing device. Background Technology

[0002] Optical glass is a type of glass material used in the optical field. It possesses excellent optical properties, capable of altering the direction of light propagation and influencing the relative spectral distribution of ultraviolet, visible, or infrared light. Depending on the application requirements, optical glass can be categorized into colorless optical glass, colored optical glass, laser glass, quartz optical glass, radiation-resistant glass, ultraviolet-infrared optical glass, fiber optic glass, acousto-optic glass, magneto-optical glass, and photochromic glass, among others. During the processing of optical glass, grinding and polishing are necessary. The main reason for grinding optical glass is to remove surface unevenness, burrs, and minor defects, making the surface smoother and thus improving the clarity and accuracy of optical imaging.

[0003] In existing technologies, the grinding and polishing of optical glass typically involves workers using handheld electric grinding and polishing equipment (equipped with a motor and grinding / polishing head) to grind and polish the corresponding surface of optical glass fixed by a fixing mechanism, or using fixed electric grinding and polishing equipment to grind the fixed optical glass. Both methods suffer from the problem that glass debris and dust generated during grinding cannot be properly disposed of. This debris and dust, floating in the air, can adversely affect the health of workers. Therefore, it is particularly necessary to provide an optical glass grinding and polishing device that can reduce the impact on workers' health. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing optical glass grinding and polishing equipment due to structural limitations, as described in the background art, this utility model provides a new type of optical glass grinding and polishing device based on an electric optical glass grinding and polishing equipment body. During operation, the optical glass can be placed in the upper and lower housings for grinding and polishing, and the debris and dust generated during grinding and polishing can be effectively sucked away by a vacuum cleaner, reducing the adverse effects of harmful substances on the health of workers.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0006] A novel optical glass grinding and polishing device includes an electric optical glass grinding and polishing equipment body, a worktable, a vacuum cleaner, a connecting pipe, an upper cover, a lower cover, and a fixing base. The grinding and polishing equipment body is installed inside the lower end of the worktable, with its upper rotating shaft and grinding and polishing head located outside the upper end of the worktable. The lower cover has an open structure at both ends, with its lower end installed outside the upper end of the worktable, and its upper rotating shaft and grinding and polishing head located inside the lower cover. A fixing ring seat is installed on the inner end of the lower cover. The upper cover has an open lower end and a closed upper end. A pressure plate is installed on the upper part of the inner end, and an anti-slip pad is installed on the lower end of the pressure plate; a dust exhaust pipe is located on one side of the upper end of the upper cover, and an adjusting rod is installed on the upper end of the upper cover; the rear end of the fixed seat is installed on the rear end of the workbench, and a fixing sleeve is installed on the front end of the fixed seat; a fixing bolt is installed on the side end of the fixing sleeve; the upper end of the adjusting rod is movably fitted inside the fixing sleeve and fixed by the fixing bolt; one side of the connecting pipe is a closed structure, and the other side is an open structure; the lower end of the connecting pipe has multiple branch pipes, which are connected to the dust exhaust pipe via flexible hoses; the other side of the connecting pipe is connected to the air inlet pipe of the vacuum cleaner.

[0007] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the fixing ring seat is larger than the outer diameter of the optical glass, and the height of the fixing ring seat is lower than the height of the optical glass.

[0008] Furthermore, the distance between the lower end of the polishing head and the upper end of the worktable is [not specified].

[0009] Furthermore, the outer end of the fixed ring seat has multiple vent holes.

[0010] Furthermore, the outer diameters of the upper and lower covers are the same.

[0011] Furthermore, after the lower end of the upper cover and the upper end of the lower cover come into contact, the lower end of the rubber pad of the pressure plate comes into contact with the upper end of the optical glass.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are as follows: Based on the main body of an electric optical glass grinding and polishing device, this invention can enclose the optical glass through the upper and lower covers during operation, and then grind and polish the optical glass through the main body of the device. Furthermore, the debris and dust generated during grinding and polishing can be effectively sucked away by a vacuum cleaner through the ventilation holes and connecting pipes, reducing the adverse effects of harmful substances floating in the air on the health of workers. In summary, this invention has good application prospects. Attached Figure Description

[0016] Figure 3 This is a photograph of the actual product of this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0017] Figure 1 , 2 As shown, a novel optical glass grinding and polishing device includes an electric optical glass grinding and polishing equipment body 1 (2KW), a worktable 2, an industrial vacuum cleaner (5KW not shown in the figure), a connecting pipe 3, an upper cover 4, a lower cover 5, and a fixing base 6. The worktable 2 has an opening 21 in the center of its surface. The lower end of the grinding and polishing equipment body 1 is vertically mounted inside the lower end of the hollow worktable 2 via bolts, with its upper shaft and grinding and polishing head 101 located outside the upper end of the worktable (rotation shaft). Located within the opening (the inner diameter of the opening is larger than the outer diameter of the rotating shaft), the lower cover 5 has an open structure at both ends. The lower end of the lower cover 5 is welded to the outer side of the upper end of the worktable 2, and the upper part of the rotating shaft and the polishing head 101 are located inside the lower cover 5. A fixing ring seat 51 is welded to the middle of the inner end of the lower cover 5. The upper cover 4 has an open structure at the lower end and a closed structure at the upper end. A pressure plate 41 with an outer diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the fixing ring seat is welded to the upper part of the inner end of the upper cover 4. The lower end of the pressure plate is glued with adhesive. A non-slip limiting pad 42 (protects the upper end of the optical glass and prevents displacement of the optical glass); a dust exhaust pipe 43 communicating with its interior is welded to the middle of the upper left side of the upper cover 4; an adjusting rod 44 is welded to the outer side of the middle of the upper end of the upper cover; the rear end of the fixing seat 6 is fixedly installed on the middle of the front side of the upper rear end of the workbench 2 by bolts; a fixing sleeve 61 is welded to the front end of the fixing seat 6; the front end of the fixing sleeve 61 has a threaded hole, and a fixing bolt 62 is installed in the threaded hole; the upper end of the adjusting rod 44 is movably sleeved in the fixing sleeve 61 and fixed by the fixing bolt 62; the left side of the connecting pipe 3 is a closed structure and the right end is an open structure; multiple branch pipes 31 communicating with its interior are welded at certain intervals at the lower end of the connecting pipe 3; multiple branch pipes 31 and multiple sets of dust exhaust pipes 43 of this novel are connected by a high-strength hose 7 (to prevent the hose from being flattened due to negative pressure); the right end of the connecting pipe 3 is connected to the air inlet pipe of the industrial vacuum cleaner by a sealed pipe.

[0018] Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the inner diameter of the fixing ring seat 51 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the optical glass 8, and the height of the fixing ring seat 51 is lower than the height of the optical glass 8. The lower end of the polishing head 101 is spaced apart from the upper end of the worktable 2. The outer end of the fixing ring seat has multiple vertically penetrating vent holes 52 spaced at an annular interval. The outer diameters of the upper cover 4 and the lower cover 5 are the same. After the lower end of the upper cover 4 contacts the upper end of the lower cover 5, the lower end of the pressure plate's rubber pad 42 contacts the upper end of the optical glass 8.

[0019] Figure 1 , 2 As shown, this new invention is based on the main body 1 of an electric optical glass grinding and polishing equipment. When the main body 1 is working, its grinding and polishing head 101 rotates to grind and polish the glass 8. Before grinding and polishing, loosen the fixing bolt 62, then lift the adjusting rod 44, place the optical glass 8 to be processed in the fixing ring seat 51, and then press the adjusting rod 44 down so that the lower end of the upper cover 4 and the upper end of the lower cover 5 come into contact, and the lower end of the rubber pad 42 of the pressure plate contacts the upper end of the optical glass 8. Then, tighten the bolt 62. After turning on the power switch of the main body 1 of the electric optical glass grinding and polishing equipment, its rotating shaft drives the grinding and polishing head 101 to rotate. Thus, the rotating grinding and polishing head can grind and polish the lower end of the optical glass (after the lower end of the optical glass is ground and polished, it can be turned over to grind and polish the upper end). After turning on the power switch of the industrial vacuum cleaner, the negative pressure generated by the vacuum cleaner causes glass shavings and other debris produced during grinding and polishing to enter the waste bin of the vacuum cleaner through the vent 52 and connecting pipe 3. These are then collected and disposed of after the work is completed. After grinding and polishing, loosen the fixing bolt 62, then lift the adjusting rod 44 to remove the ground and polished optical glass 8 from the fixing ring seat 51, thus completing the entire workflow. Through the above, this new type of vacuum cleaner can enclose the optical glass through the upper and lower covers during operation, allowing grinding and polishing to be performed by the main body of the grinding and polishing equipment. The debris and dust generated during grinding and polishing can be effectively sucked away by the vacuum cleaner through the vent and connecting pipe, reducing the adverse effects of harmful substances floating in the air on the health of workers.
