Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of lens assembly dispensing equipment, specifically to a dispensing mechanism for eyeglass lenses. Background Technology

[0002] Eyeglasses are a common wearable item, primarily used by people with visual impairments, such as myopia and hyperopia. They can adjust the vision of these individuals, enabling them to achieve normal visual acuity and greatly improving the convenience of daily life. Eyeglasses are typically assembled from lenses and frames, with the lenses usually attached to the frames using adhesive, which requires applying adhesive to the lenses.

[0003] Current dispensing machines operate on a batch-by-batch basis, which takes a considerable amount of time due to loading and unloading, thus hindering overall processing efficiency. Furthermore, after dispensing, the material cannot be unloaded directly by hand, as this would affect the subsequent bonding of the lens to the frame. Currently, there is no suitable unloading structure; most machines rely on pneumatic cylinders and suction cups, which are not very efficient. Therefore, a dispensing mechanism for eyeglass lenses is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] Please refer to the following: Figure 1-3 This utility model discloses a lens dispensing mechanism, including a processing table 1. A motor is detachably embedded in the middle of the top side wall of the processing table 1, and a turntable 5 is detachably connected to the output end of the motor. Four support arms 6 are evenly fixedly connected to the outer ring wall of the turntable 5. A suction cup 7 is provided on the upper side wall of the support arm 6 away from the turntable 5. A lens is placed on the top of the suction cup 7. A top support column 13 and a push column 14 are respectively provided on both sides of the suction cup 7. The tops of the top support column 13 and the push column 14 are at the same level as the top of the suction cup 7.

[0018] A connecting plate 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom side wall of the suction cup 7. A vertical telescopic rod 15 is detachably connected to the side of the connecting plate 11 away from the suction cup 7. A moving block 10 is provided below the vertical telescopic rod 15. The cylinder of the vertical telescopic rod 15 is detachably embedded in the moving block 10. A fixing plate 12 is fixedly connected to each of the two side walls of the moving block 10 that are far apart from each other. The fixing plate 12 is detachably connected to the bottom end of the top support column 13 and the push column 14 through its end away from the moving block 10. A roller 16 is rotatably connected to the top center of the top of the top support column 13 away from the moving block 10. A rubber pad is sleeved on the outer wall of the roller 16.

[0019] A side plate 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the push column 14 and the edge away from where the suction cup 7 is placed. A horizontal telescopic rod 18 is detachably connected to one side wall of the side plate 17. The output end of the horizontal telescopic rod 18 is detachably connected to a push plate 19 through the side plate 17. The push plate 19 has an L-shaped structure. The top side wall of the horizontal plate of the push plate 19 is at the same level as the top of the roller 16.

[0020] The technical effects of this solution are as follows: The lens to be processed is placed on the suction cup 7, which can adsorb the lens. At the same time, the two ends of the lens are placed on the top side wall of the roller 16 and the push plate 19. The stability of the lens placement is ensured by the three-point support. Then, the motor is started to drive the support arm 6 to rotate, and the lens is moved to the bottom of the glue dispensing tank 4 for glue dispensing. After processing, the lens is sent to the side of the conveyor belt by the rotation of the turntable 5. Then, the vertical telescopic rod 15 is started to lower the suction cup 7, thereby detaching the suction cup 7 from under the lens. Then, the horizontal telescopic rod 18 is started to drive the push plate 19 to move and push the lens onto the conveyor belt to achieve unloading. The rotation of the turntable 5 can realize continuous feeding and glue dispensing, reducing the time spent on loading and unloading. The push plate 19 and roller 16 can realize automatic unloading, avoiding the impact of manual unloading on glue dispensing.

[0021] The support arm 6, away from the turntable 5, has a vertical groove 8 on its side wall opposite to the moving block 10. A slider is slidably connected in the vertical groove 8. A horizontal groove 9 is provided above the vertical groove 8. The horizontal groove 9 is detachably connected to the top side wall of the vertical groove 8. The moving block 10 is slidably connected in the horizontal groove 9. A vertical column 2 is fixedly connected to the middle of one side edge of the top of the processing table 1. A lifting groove 3 is provided in the middle of the side wall opposite to the turntable 5 of the vertical column 2. A lifting block is slidably connected in the lifting groove 3. One end of the lifting block is detachably connected to a glue injection tank 4. The glue outlet at the bottom of the glue injection tank 4 corresponds to the suction cup 7. A conveyor belt is provided on one side of the processing table 1.

[0022] The technical effect of this solution is as follows: a vertical slide groove 8 is opened on the support arm 6, and then a horizontal slide groove 9 is connected to the slider inside the vertical slide groove 8. Then, components such as the suction cup 7 are installed on the moving block 10, and the moving block 10 is slidably connected to the horizontal slide groove 9. The function of all-round adjustment is achieved through the movement and cooperation of the vertical slide groove 8 and the horizontal slide groove 9, ensuring that the glue can be applied to any position on the lens, thereby improving the accuracy of glue application and achieving high-efficiency glue application.

[0023] Specifically, in use, the lens is placed on the suction cup 7 furthest from the vertical column 2. The suction cup 7 adsorbs the lens, and then the motor drives the turntable 5 to rotate. As it rotates, the processed lens is moved to one side of the conveyor belt. The next lens to be processed is sent to the bottom of the glue dispensing tank 4 for processing. The suction cup 7 on the side of the conveyor belt is lowered by the vertical telescopic rod 15. As the suction cup 7 descends, the lens is lifted by the roller 16 and the push plate 19. Then, the horizontal telescopic rod 18 is activated to drive the push plate 19 to move. As the push plate 19 moves, it pushes the lens closer to the conveyor belt until the lens is carried away by the conveyor belt. Then, the push plate 19 and the suction cup 7 are reset in sequence. Finally, the suction cup 7, after unloading, is moved to the loading area by the rotation of the turntable 5 to place a new lens. The above process can achieve continuous processing, avoid delays in processing efficiency due to loading and unloading, and unloading does not require manual intervention, thus avoiding any impact on glue dispensing.

[0024] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0025] All other parts of this utility model that are not described in detail belong to the prior art, and therefore will not be described in detail here.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
