[0020] 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.
[0021] Please see Figure 1 This utility model provides a technical solution: a lens processing flipping mechanism, including an operating table 1, a U-shaped rod 2 fixedly connected to the top of the operating table 1, and a slidable and adjustable feeding platform 3 located inside the U-shaped rod 2 on the top of the operating table 1. The feeding platform 3 has equidistant placement slots 4 on its top, and a lens body 5 is clamped in the placement slots 4. A support frame 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the operating table 1, and a horizontal linear module 7 is provided at the top of the support frame 6. The sliding block surface of the linear module 7 is provided with a lens flipping component 8 for flipping the lens body 5.
[0022] Please see Figure 3 The lens flipping assembly 8 includes an L-shaped plate 14, which is fixedly connected to the surface of the sliding block of the linear module 7. A lifting plate 15 is slidably disposed on the surface of the L-shaped plate 14, and a first cylinder 16 is installed on the top of the lifting plate 15. The piston rod end of the first cylinder 16 passes through the lifting plate 15 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the L-shaped plate 14. A lifting rod 17 is rotatably connected inside the lifting plate 15 through a bearing, and the end of the lifting rod 17 slides through the L-shaped plate 14 and is connected to a suction cup 18.
[0023] It should be noted that the lens flipping assembly 8 can control the lifting and lowering of the suction cup 18. The suction cup 18 is lowered to the middle of the lens body 5, and then the lens body 5 is sucked up. The sucked lens body 5 is then raised and rotated 180 degrees. Finally, the flipped lens body 5 is placed back in its original position. The flipping is convenient and fast and does not require manual operation. While protecting the lens body 5, it also improves the lens processing efficiency. Specifically, when flipping the lens, the control system of the device controls the operation of cylinder 16. The piston rod of cylinder 16 extends to control the descent of the suction cup 18. The suction cup 18 sucks up the first lens body 5 on the feeding table 3, and then lifts the lens body 5. Then, cylinder 21 operates. The piston rod of cylinder 21 extends and is connected to the L-shaped rod 25 and gear 19 to rotate the lifting rod 17, controlling the lens body 5 to rotate 180 degrees. Then, through the cooperation of cylinder 16 and cylinder 21, the flipped lens body 5 is put back into the placement slot 4.
[0024] Please see Figure 3 The top of the lifting rod 17 passes through the lifting plate 15 and is fixedly connected to a gear 19. One end of the top of the lifting plate 15 is fixedly connected to a mounting bracket 20, and a second cylinder 21 is installed on the side wall of the mounting bracket 20. The piston rod end of the second cylinder 21 passes through the mounting bracket 20 and is fixedly connected to a rack 22. The rack 22 meshes with the gear 19.
[0025] It should be noted that when the second cylinder 21 is working, the piston rod of the second cylinder 21 extends, and through the meshing connection of the L-shaped rod 25 and the gear 19, the lifting rod 17 rotates, controlling the lens body 5 to rotate 180 degrees, thereby realizing the flipping of the lens body 5.
[0026] Please see Figure 3 Limiting rods 23 are symmetrically arranged on the surface of the L-shaped plate 14, and limiting grooves are symmetrically opened on the side wall of the lifting plate 15. The two limiting rods 23 are slidably connected in the limiting grooves of the lifting plate 15.
[0027] It should be noted that during the lifting process, the limiting groove on the lifting plate 15 is slidably connected to the outside of the limiting rod 23, so that the lifting plate 15 can be lifted and lowered smoothly, thereby allowing the suction cup 18 of the lens body 5 to be lifted and lowered smoothly.
[0028] Please see Figure 3 The bottom of the lifting plate 15 is symmetrically fixed to the outside of the lifting rod 17 with limiting posts 24, and the ends of the two limiting posts 24 slide through the L-shaped plate 14.
[0029] It should be noted that during the lifting process of the lifting plate 15, the limiting post 24 at the bottom of the lifting plate 15 can be slidably connected to the L-shaped plate 14, which further enables the lifting plate 15 to lift smoothly.
[0030] Please see Figure 2The top of the operating platform 1 is rotatably connected to a drive pulley 9 and a driven pulley 10 on one side wall of the U-shaped rod 2, and the drive pulley 9 and the driven pulley 10 are connected by belt drive. A drive motor 11 is installed at one end of the bottom of the operating platform 1 panel, and the output shaft end of the drive motor 11 passes through the panel and is fixedly connected to the central shaft of the drive pulley 9. A sliding groove 12 is opened on one side wall of the U-shaped rod 2, and a slider 13 is fixedly connected to one end of the side wall of the feeding platform 3. The end of the slider 13 passes through the sliding groove 12 and is fixedly connected to the belt.
[0031] It should be noted that, in use, the lens bodies 5 to be flipped are placed sequentially into the placement slots 4 on the feeding platform 3. Initially, the first row of lens bodies 5 on the feeding platform 3 is located below the lens flipping assembly 8. The control system of the device controls the operation of cylinder 16. The piston rod of cylinder 16 extends to control the suction cup 18 to descend. The suction cup 18 clamps the first lens body 5 on the feeding platform 3, and then lifts the lens body 5. Next, cylinder 21 operates. The piston rod of cylinder 21 extends and, through the meshing connection of L-shaped rod 25 and gear 19, causes the lifting rod 17 to rotate, controlling the lens body 5 to rotate 18 times. At 0 degrees, the flipped lens body 5 is repositioned into the placement slot 4 through the cooperation of cylinder 16 and cylinder 21. The lens flipping assembly 8 can be controlled to move horizontally along the support frame 6 through the linear module 7, so as to flip the downward-moving lens body 5. After the first row of lens bodies 5 is flipped, the control system controls the drive motor 11 to work and make the active pulley 9 rotate. Through the transmission connection between the active pulley 9 and the driven pulley 10, the slider 13 drives the feeding table 3 to slide in the U-shaped rod 2, so that the next row of lens bodies 5 is located below the lens flipping assembly 8, and the next row of lens bodies 5 can continue to be flipped.
[0032] Please see Figure 2 The feeding platform 3 is slidably connected inside the U-shaped rod 2, and the slider 13 is slidably connected inside the slide groove 12.
[0033] It should be noted that the sliding of the feeding platform 3 inside the U-shaped rod 2 can change the position of the lens body 5, so that the suction cup 18 can successfully adsorb the lens body 5, which facilitates the flipping of the lens body 5.
[0034] Please see Figure 3 An L-shaped rod 25 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting plate 15, and a rack 22 is slidably connected inside the L-shaped rod 25.
[0035] It should be noted that during the sliding process, the rack 22 can be slidably set inside the L-shaped rod 25, ensuring the smooth sliding of the rack 22, thereby ensuring the meshing connection between the rack 22 and the gear 19, and realizing the flipping of the lens body 5.
