[0002] Large-size optical glass, such as astronomical telescope lenses, laser mirrors, and high-precision optical sensors, has extremely high requirements for surface flatness, roughness, and optical uniformity. Grinding, as the core process of optical processing, directly affects the quality of the finished product through temperature control and motion stability.

[0003] During the grinding process, large-size optical glass is prone to localized temperature gradients due to frictional heat generation, leading to uneven distribution of thermal stress on the glass surface and consequently causing warping, cracking, or deterioration of optical performance. Traditional cooling methods, such as single spray or immersion cooling, cannot achieve uniform distribution and dynamic adjustment of the coolant, resulting in large temperature differences in the grinding area, which is difficult to meet the processing requirements of high-precision optical components.

[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 of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This embodiment provides a temperature control device for a large-size optical glass grinding platform, including a processing table 1. A grinding disc sleeve 2 is fixedly provided on the top of the processing table 1. A lower grinding disc 3 is provided in the inner area of ​​the grinding disc sleeve 2 on the top of the processing table 1. A rotating column 4 is rotatably connected to the top of the processing table 1. The lower grinding disc 3 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating column 4. A bracket 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the processing table 1. A lifting plate 6 is slidably connected to the outside of the bracket 5. A cooling seat 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting plate 6. An upper grinding disc 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cooling seat 7. The upper grinding disc 8 and the lower grinding disc 3 are arranged opposite each other. A number of guide grooves 9 are distributed in a ring array on the top of the lower grinding disc 3. A number of guide tubes 10 are arranged in a ring array inside the cooling seat 7. A number of small holes 11 corresponding to the guide tubes 10 are opened at the bottom of the upper grinding disc 8. The bottom end of the guide tube 10 is connected to the corresponding small hole 11. Two concentric ring guide cavities 12 are provided on the top of the cooling seat 7. The top ends of the guide tubes 10 are connected to the corresponding ring guide cavities 12.

[0022] During the grinding process, the optical glass is placed on top of the lower grinding disc 3. The upper grinding disc 8 is lowered by the cooling seat 7 and the lifting plate 6 to clamp the optical glass in conjunction with the lower grinding disc 3. When cooling is required, the coolant is injected through the annular guide cavity 12, transported through the guide pipe 10 to the small hole 11 at the bottom of the upper grinding disc 8, and further flows to the surface of the lower grinding disc 3. The coolant is guided to be evenly distributed and discharged through the guide groove 9 to achieve temperature control during the grinding process.

[0023] Cylinders 13 are symmetrically fixedly installed inside the bracket 5. The output end of the cylinder 13 is fixedly connected to the lifting plate 6. The cylinder 13 pushes the lifting plate 6 to move vertically along the bracket 5 through the output end, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering of the upper grinding disc 8.

[0024] Several injection pipes 14 are fixedly connected inside the lifting plate 6. The bottom end of the injection pipe 14 is set directly opposite the annular guide cavity 12. The injection pipes 14 inside the lifting plate 6 are connected to the external coolant supply system to inject coolant into the annular guide cavity 12 of the cooling seat 7.

[0025] A small ring gear 15 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating column 4, and a large ring gear 16 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the grinding disc sleeve 2. Several positioning plates 17 are provided on the top of the lower grinding disc 3. A toothed ring 18 is provided on the outer side of the positioning plate 17. The two sides of the toothed ring 18 are respectively meshed with the small ring gear 15 and the large ring gear 16. A motor 19 is fixedly installed inside the processing table 1. The output end of the motor 19 is fixedly connected to the rotating column 4.

[0026] Motor 19 drives the rotating column 4 to rotate, which in turn drives the lower grinding disc 3 to rotate synchronously. The small ring gear 15 meshes with the gear ring 18, driving the gear ring 18 to revolve around the rotating column 4. At the same time, the gear ring 18 meshes with the large ring gear 16 on the inner wall of the grinding disc sleeve 2 to achieve rotation. The positioning plate 17 moves with the gear ring 18, forming a planetary gear transmission mode to grind the optical glass.

[0027] The positioning plate 17 has a ring array of several circular holes 20 on its surface. The circular holes 20 on the surface of the positioning plate 17 match the outer diameter of the optical glass. During the grinding process, the edge of the glass is embedded in the circular holes 20 to achieve radial positioning. The upper grinding disc 8 and the lower grinding disc 3 work together to clamp the glass and form a stable grinding environment.

[0028] Both the bottom center of the cooling seat 7 and the center of the upper grinding plate 8 are hollow structures. When the upper grinding plate 8 descends to the working position with the cooling seat 7, its hollow area corresponds to the position of the rotating column 4. This is to avoid interference.

[0029] An annular gap is left between the outer wall of the lower grinding disc 3 and the inner wall of the grinding disc sleeve 2. During the grinding process, the coolant discharged from the guide groove 9 can quickly flow into the drain channel opened at the bottom of the grinding disc sleeve 2 through the annular gap, preventing the coolant from accumulating on the surface of the lower grinding disc 3 and avoiding liquid overflow that could cause corrosion or pollution to the equipment.

[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
