Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to optical glass production technical field, specifically is a kind of optical glass forming after automatic blanking overturning structure. BACKGROUND

[0002] Optical glass refers to the glass that can change the propagation direction of light and can change the relative spectral distribution of ultraviolet, visible or infrared light. In a narrow sense, optical glass refers to colorless optical glass; In a broad sense, optical glass also includes colored optical glass, laser glass, quartz optical glass, radiation-resistant glass, ultraviolet and infrared optical glass, fiber optical glass, acousto-optic glass, magneto-optic glass and photochromic glass. Components made of optical glass are key elements in optical instruments.

[0003] Optical glass is a non-crystalline (glassy) optical medium material that transmits light. It can be used to make various optical elements such as prisms, lenses, and filters. After the light passes through, it can change the direction of propagation, phase and intensity, etc. According to different requirements, optical glass can be divided into three categories: ① Colorless optical glass - almost completely transparent in a wide range of visible and near-infrared wavelengths, it is the most widely used optical glass. There are hundreds of brands according to different refractive indices and dispersions, which can be divided into two varieties, namely, crown optical glass (represented by K) and flint optical glass (represented by F). Crown glass is a borosilicate glass, and adding aluminum oxide makes it flint glass. The main difference between the two is that the refractive index and dispersion of flint glass are larger, so spectral elements are mostly made of it. ② Radiation-resistant optical glass - has the properties of colorless optical glass and can basically maintain its performance under radioactive irradiation. It is used in optical instruments that are exposed to gamma radiation, and its varieties and brands are the same as those of colorless optical glass. Its chemical composition is based on colorless optical glass, with a small amount of cerium dioxide added to eliminate color centers formed in the glass by high-energy radiation, so that the glass has very small changes in light absorption after irradiation. ③ Colored optical glass - has specific absorption or transmission properties for certain wavelengths of light. There are more than 100 varieties of colored optical glass. Color filters selectively absorb certain colors, neutral filters absorb all wavelengths of light equally, reducing light intensity without changing color. Interference filters reflect unwanted colors based on the principle of light interference rather than absorption. Optical glass has high transparency, high chemical and physical (structure and performance) uniformity, and specific and precise optical constants. It can be divided into silicate, borate, phosphate, fluoride and sulfur series.

[0004] In recent years, some new varieties of optical glass have been developed, such as glasses with good transmittance for infrared and ultraviolet; glasses with very high or very low refractive index or dispersion; glasses that change color with light intensity; magneto-optic glass that rotates the polarization plane when light passes along the magnetic line; electro-optic glass that produces birefringence under the action of an external electric field, etc.

[0005] Optical glass is the basis and important component of photoelectric technology industry. Especially after 1990s, with the continuous integration of optics and electronic information science, new material science, the application of optical glass as the basis material of optoelectronic in the three fields of optical transmission, optical storage and photoelectric display is rapidly developed, and becomes one of the basic conditions for the development of social information, especially photoelectric information technology.

[0006] After the optical glass is formed, it needs to be taken out from the mold, collected and put back into the heating furnace for heating. The traditional way is to take it out manually, which is low in efficiency and causes long waiting time of the formed product, large temperature difference of the glass and influence on the quality of the glass. Practical new type content

[0007] The utility model discloses a structure of automatic material falling and overturning after optical glass forming, which can collect the same batch of formed glass at one time, realize overturning into the heating furnace for heating, shorten the waiting time, improve the efficiency and the quality of the glass product.

[0009] The structure for automatically discharging and overturning optical glass after forming comprises a horizontally arranged slide rail, a support table is installed on the top of the slide rail, and the support table is connected with the slide rail and can move horizontally along the slide rail; a driving mechanism is installed on the support table, an installation plate is connected with the output shaft of the driving mechanism, and the output shaft can drive the installation plate to rotate, a secondary driving mechanism is arranged on the installation plate, and a bearing plate is connected with the secondary driving mechanism and can be driven by the secondary driving mechanism to rotate. After the raw material of optical glass is heated and softened, it is put into a forming mold for forming, and then it needs to be taken out of the mold for collection and then put back into the heating furnace for heating. In order to improve the production efficiency, batch molds are used for forming, and the traditional taking-out method is manual taking-out, which is low in efficiency and can cause long waiting time of the formed glass in the same batch, resulting in large temperature difference of the glass and affecting the quality of the glass. Moreover, manual taking-out can easily cause structural deformation of the formed glass due to the soft texture of the formed glass, resulting in high scrap rate. In order to solve the above problems, the structure for automatically discharging and overturning optical glass after forming comprises a horizontally arranged slide rail, the slide rail is installed on the ground, a support table is installed on the top of the slide rail, and the support table is connected with the slide rail and can move horizontally along the slide rail. A driving mechanism is installed on the support table, an installation plate is connected with the output shaft of the driving mechanism, and the output shaft can drive the installation plate to rotate. A secondary driving mechanism is arranged on the installation plate, and a bearing plate is connected with the secondary driving mechanism and can be driven by the secondary driving mechanism to rotate. The bearing plate is used for bearing the formed glass, and its initial working position is located directly below the mold. After the products in the forming mold are collected on the bearing plate, the bearing plate remains in a horizontal state. The support table moves horizontally along the slide rail to approach the heating furnace opening. At the same time, the output shaft of the driving mechanism drives the installation plate to rotate to lower its height so as to approach the heating furnace opening. Then the secondary driving mechanism drives the bearing plate to rotate to overturn the formed glass products on the bearing plate into the heating furnace, so as to heat them again. The products in the same batch can be heated in batches, the temperature difference is reduced, the efficiency is improved, and the entire process will not damage the glass products, thereby improving the qualified rate.

[0010] Further, a groove is formed in the top of the slide rail, and a mounting block is protruded from the bottom of the support table and inserted into the groove and can move along the groove. Through the combination of the mounting block and the groove, the connection tightness can be improved, the movement of the support table is smoother, and the movement track remains on the same straight line, thereby reducing the shaking.

[0011] Further, a hydraulic rod is connected with the side wall of the support table, a driving mechanism is connected with the end of the hydraulic rod away from the support table, and the driving mechanism can drive the hydraulic rod to move to pull the support table to move horizontally along the slide rail. The driving mechanism is a conventional structure, which can drive the hydraulic rod to extend or retract to pull the support table to move, so that the support table moves more quickly.

[0012] Further, the support plate is fixed on the support table, and the main power mechanism is installed on the support plate. By arranging the support plate, there is enough space to install the main power mechanism, so that the components do not interfere with each other.

[0013] Further, in order to improve efficiency and shorten waiting time, the auxiliary power mechanism is arranged in two groups and symmetrically along the center of the mounting plate. In this way, the two groups of bearing plates act respectively, and the work is alternately operated in a pipeline, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0014] In summary, the present application has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art: after the product in the forming mold is collected on the bearing plate, the bearing plate is kept in a horizontal state, the support table moves horizontally along the slide rail to approach the heating furnace port, and the output shaft of the main power mechanism drives the mounting plate to rotate to lower its height to approach the heating furnace port, and then the auxiliary power mechanism drives the bearing plate to rotate to turn over the formed glass product on the bearing plate into the heating furnace, so as to heat again, realize batch heating of the same batch of products, reduce temperature difference, improve efficiency, and the whole process will not damage the glass product, improve the qualified rate.
