Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of lens processing equipment, specifically to an optical lens grinding and feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] Optical glass is made by mixing high-purity oxides of silicon, boron, sodium, potassium, zinc, lead, magnesium, calcium, barium, etc., according to a specific formula. This mixture is melted at high temperature in a platinum crucible, stirred ultrasonically to remove air bubbles, and then slowly cooled over a long period to prevent internal stress in the glass block. After cooling, the glass block must be measured with optical instruments to check its purity, transparency, uniformity, refractive index, and dispersion to ensure they meet specifications. Qualified glass blocks are then heated and pressed to form optical lens blanks.

[0003] Currently, optical lenses on the market are made by fusing various oxides at high temperatures and then cooling them. They have advantages such as high light transmittance and good uniformity. However, for the polishing of optical lenses, the process of loading the lens during polishing is inconvenient. Manually placing the lens on the platform of the polishing device is risky and can easily lead to danger. Utility Model Content

Specifically, the feeding mechanism 100 includes the drive motor 120 and the conveyor belt 110 set at the output end of the drive motor 120. Lens sheets 111 are placed equidistantly above the conveyor belt 110.

[0030] The pushing mechanism 200 is connected to an external air supply device through the first cylinder 210. The extension end of the first cylinder 210 drives the push plate 220 to push the lens sheet 111 between the two clamping arms 350. Specifically, the pushing mechanism 200 pushes out the lens sheet 111 on the conveyor belt 110. In this embodiment, the pushing mechanism 200 includes the first cylinder 210 and the push plate 220 disposed at the extension end of the first cylinder 210.

[0031] The clamping mechanism 300 controls the extension end of the electric telescopic rod 320 to shorten by pushing the control button on the controller switch 330 via the lens. This causes the boom 340 to pull the clamping arm 350 towards the center, clamping the lens sheet 111. It also controls the operation of the second cylinder 420 and the stepper motor 410. Specifically, the clamping mechanism 300 clamps the ejected lens sheet 111.

Specifically, the transfer mechanism 400 transfers the gripped lens sheet 111. In this embodiment, the transfer mechanism 400 includes a stepper motor 410 and a second cylinder 420 disposed at the output end of the stepper motor 410. The telescopic end of the second cylinder 420 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 310.

[0033] The polishing mechanism 500 polishes the transferred lens sheet 111.

[0034] Combination Figures 1-3 The optical lens grinding and feeding device of this embodiment is used as follows: The drive motor 120 controls the conveyor belt 110 to rotate, and the conveyor belt 110 sends the lenses one by one to the front of the pushing mechanism 200. The first cylinder 210 is connected to an external air supply device, and the extension end of the first cylinder 210 drives the push plate 220 to push the lens sheet 111 between the two clamping arms 350. The lens pushes the control button on the controller switch 330 to control the extension end of the electric telescopic rod 320 to shorten, so that the boom 340 pulls the clamping arms 350 closer to the center to clamp the lens sheet 111. The second cylinder 420 and the stepper motor 410 are controlled to run. The output end of the stepper motor 410 rotates, driving the second cylinder 420 to rotate. The extension end of the second cylinder 420 is controlled by the external air supply device to place the lens sheet 111 stably and accurately on the grinding platform of the grinding mechanism 500, which can reduce the operation danger and keep the lens sheet 111 clean.
