Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of trimming device technology, specifically a silicone lens trimming device. Background Technology

[0002] Silicone lenses are optical lenses made of silicone. Silicone is a material with excellent biocompatibility, chemical stability, and optical transparency, making it widely used in the manufacture of medical devices, optical components, and contact lenses. Silicone lenses are non-toxic and harmless to the eyes, and do not cause allergic reactions, making them ideal for contact lenses. Silicone has good oxygen permeability, allowing oxygen to pass through the lens to the cornea, reducing discomfort and health problems caused by oxygen deficiency. Silicone lenses are soft and comfortable to wear, especially for extended periods. Their excellent optical transparency provides clear vision. Silicone lenses have a long lifespan and are not easily deformed or damaged. Silicone lenses are widely used in medical and optical fields such as contact lenses and intraocular lenses (used to replace natural lenses after cataract surgery). Due to their superior performance, silicone lenses occupy an important position in modern ophthalmology and optical equipment.

[0003] Currently, silicone materials can generate static electricity, which attracts dust and particles from the air, leading to lens surface contamination. This is particularly detrimental to optical applications, as any surface contamination can affect the lens's optical performance; therefore, it does not meet existing requirements. To address this, we propose a silicone lens trimming device. Utility Model Content

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This silicone lens trimming device, through the setting of a rotating component, places the material and liquid into the operating chamber. Activating the servo motor causes the first rotating shaft to rotate, simultaneously causing the shovel to flip the material. The material, in conjunction with the brush column, has its side dust brushed away. Precise control of the servo motor ensures stable and continuous rotation, guaranteeing uniform flipping of the material by the shovel. Through mechanized continuous operation, all sides of the material are thoroughly cleaned, greatly improving cleaning efficiency, reducing the tediousness and time consumption of manual operation, and solving the problem of static electricity generated on silicone materials, which attracts dust and particles from the air, leading to lens surface contamination.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Example 1: This example aims to address the potential for static electricity to be generated on silicone materials. Static electricity attracts dust and particles from the air, leading to lens surface contamination. This is particularly detrimental to optical applications, as any surface contamination can affect the lens's optical performance. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1-5 A silicone lens trimming device includes an operation box 110, a drive assembly 120 on the side of the operation box 110, an operation cavity 130 inside the operation box 110, a rotating shaft 140 on the inner wall of the operation cavity 130, the rotating shaft 140 cooperating with the drive assembly 120, a rotating assembly 160 on the side of the rotating shaft 140, a rectangular plate 170 at the bottom of the operation cavity 130, and a brush post 171 connected to the side of the rectangular plate 170.

[0024] A first rotating shaft 111 and a second rotating shaft 112 are respectively inserted into the side of the control box 110. A drive assembly 120 is installed on the side of the first rotating shaft 111. A conveyor belt 200 is sleeved on the outside of the first rotating shaft 111 and the second rotating shaft 112. The drive assembly 120 includes a servo motor 121 and an output shaft 122. The output shaft 122 is connected to the side of the servo motor 121 and the end of the first rotating shaft 111. A rotating assembly 160 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 140. The rotating assembly 160 includes a sleeve 161 and a shovel plate 162. The sleeve 161 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 140, and the shovel plate 162 is connected to the side of the sleeve 161. Several shovel plates 162 are provided and connected to the outside of the sleeve 161. The shovel plates 162 are configured as V-shaped plates.

[0025] In this embodiment: By using the rotating assembly 160, materials and liquids are placed inside the operating chamber 130. The servo motor 121 is activated, causing the first rotating shaft 111 to rotate, simultaneously driving the shovel 162 to flip the materials. The materials cooperate with the brush column 171, brushing away dust from the sides. Precise control of the servo motor 121 ensures stable and continuous rotation, guaranteeing uniform flipping of the materials by the shovel 162. Through continuous mechanized operation, all sides of the materials are thoroughly cleaned, significantly improving cleaning efficiency, reducing the tediousness and time consumption of manual operation, and solving the problem of static electricity that may be generated on silicone materials. Static electricity attracts dust and particles from the air, leading to lens surface contamination. This is particularly detrimental to optical applications, as any surface contamination can affect the optical performance of the lens.

[0026] Example 2 aims to further solve the problem of incomplete cleaning. This example is an improvement on Example 1. For details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1-5 A fixing plate 163 is connected to the side of the shovel plate 162. Two fixing plates 163 are provided, and a third rotating shaft 164 is inserted between the two fixing plates 163. A roller 165 is sleeved on the outside of the third rotating shaft 164. Several brush rods 181 are connected to the outside of the roller 165, and the brush rods 181 are used in conjunction with the brush column 171. A slider 182 is connected to the bottom of the rectangular plate 170, and a sliding groove 183 is opened inside the operating cavity 130. The slider 182 slides and engages with the sliding groove 183.

[0027] In this embodiment, the brush rod 181, in conjunction with the brush column 171, ensures that both sides of the material are thoroughly cleaned during the turning process, as the scraper plate 162 flips the material. This squeezing and engaging design of the brush rod 181 and brush column 171 guarantees complete cleaning of both sides of the material during the turning process. This double-sided cleaning eliminates any dust or impurities on the material surface, improving the thoroughness and consistency of the cleaning.
