Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical lens polishing technology, specifically to a polishing and cooling mechanism for optical lenses. Background Technology
[0002] An optical lens is an optical element that refracts, focuses, or diverges light. It is made of a transparent material and its surface is part of a sphere, used to change the direction and path of light propagation. Optical lenses play a crucial role in various optical devices.
[0003] Polishing is a necessary step in optical lens manufacturing. During the polishing process, the tool and the lens surface rub against each other at high speed, generating a lot of heat. If the heat is not dissipated simultaneously, it will cause the material to expand and deform, affecting the precision.
[0004] In existing polishing devices, the tool is usually placed over the lens surface during operation, and coolant is sprayed for cooling. However, the tool and lens surface are bound together, which can block the sprayed coolant, preventing it from cooling the lens evenly and thus affecting the efficiency of polishing and cooling. Therefore, we propose a polishing and cooling mechanism for optical lenses to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

The turntable is located on the outer side above the equipment compartment. A drive rod is eccentrically connected to the turntable. The drive rod is movably connected to a swing rod. The swing rod is fixed to the rotating seat. A water pump is also installed inside the equipment compartment. The inlet of the water pump is connected to a water storage tank. The outlet of the water pump is connected to the connecting rod through a water pipe.
[0007] Preferably, the guide plate is inclined, and the lowest end of the guide plate is located at the lowest end of the partition, and the connection position between the rotating shaft and the guide plate is higher than the upper end of the partition.

[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] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides a technical solution: a polishing and cooling mechanism for an optical lens, comprising a main body (1), a partition (2) fixed inside the main body (1), a guide plate (3) on one side of the partition (2), a water storage tank (17) on the other side of the partition (2), an equipment compartment (15) above the water storage tank (17), and the equipment compartment (15) fixed at the top of the side of the main body (1).
[0024] Furthermore, the guide plate (3) is inclined to facilitate the downward flow of coolant, and the lowest end of the guide plate (3) is located at the lowest end of the partition plate (2). The connection position between the rotating shaft (5) and the guide plate (3) is higher than the upper end of the partition plate (2), ensuring that the circulation of coolant will not affect the normal operation of the rotating shaft (5).
[0025] Furthermore, the upper side of the guide plate (3) is provided with strip-shaped protrusions at equal intervals, and the strip-shaped protrusions are arranged laterally on the guide plate (3). The strip-shaped protrusions can trap particulate impurities contained in the coolant, ensuring the normal reuse of the coolant.
[0026] A motor (4) is installed on the lower side of the guide plate (3). A rotating shaft (5) is fixed at the output end of the motor (4). The rotating shaft (5) passes through the guide plate (3), and a polishing seat (6) is installed on the upper end of the rotating shaft (5). A polishing cover (7) is provided on the upper side of the polishing seat (6). A connector (8) is connected to the polishing cover (7). The connector (8) is fixed to the pressure rod (10) by a connecting rod (9).
[0027] Furthermore, the polishing cover (7) includes a cover body (71), polishing discs (72) and a water passage hole (73). The polishing discs (72) are installed on the inner side of the cover body (71), and the polishing discs (72) are spaced apart on the inner side of the cover body (71) to ensure that the coolant flows normally in the cover body (71). A water passage hole (73) is provided in the middle of the cover body (71).
[0028] Furthermore, the connector (8) and the connecting rod (9) are provided with through holes, which are connected to the water passage hole (73). The water pipe (16) connects the through holes in the connector (8) and the connecting rod (9) to inject coolant into the water passage hole (73), ensuring that the coolant can enter the polishing working position normally, while not affecting the normal connection between the connector (8) and the cover (71).
[0029] Furthermore, the connector (8) is spherical in shape, so that the connector (8) and the cover (71) form a movable connection structure to ensure normal polishing operation. The connector (8) is embedded in the middle of the cover (71) above the water hole (73) to ensure normal water flow.
[0030] The pressure rod (10) is movably mounted on the rotating seat (11), which is mounted above the equipment compartment (15) via bearings. A spring telescopic rod (12) is installed between the rotating seat (11) and the pressure rod (10). A motor is installed inside the equipment compartment (15), and a turntable (14) is fixed on the output end of the motor. The turntable (14) is located on the outer side above the equipment compartment (15). A drive rod (13) is eccentrically connected to the turntable (14), and the drive rod (13) is movably connected to the swing rod (19). The swing rod (19) is fixed on the rotating seat (11).
[0031] Furthermore, the spring telescopic rod (12) is equipped with a spring. The spring telescopic rod (12) is in an extended state through the internal spring, which applies downward pressure to the pressure rod (10). Thus, the polishing cover (7) is pressed down appropriately through the connector (8) and connecting rod (9) at the front end of the pressure rod (10), ensuring the quality of the polishing work.
[0032] Furthermore, the turntable (14) causes the rotating seat (11) to form a reciprocating rotation structure on the upper side of the equipment compartment (15) through the drive rod (13) and the swing rod (19), thereby realizing the reciprocating movement of the pressure rod (10), which drives the polishing cover (7) to perform positional movement, improving the polishing efficiency and comprehensiveness.
[0033] The equipment compartment (15) is also equipped with a water pump (18), the water inlet of the water pump (18) is connected to the water storage tank (17), and the water outlet of the water pump (18) is connected to the connecting rod (9) through the water pipe (16).
[0034] Specifically, when using the polishing and cooling mechanism for optical lenses, first remove the polishing seat (6), and then attach an appropriate number of optical lenses to the polishing seat (6). The optical lenses are spherically distributed on the outside of the polishing seat (6), and the inside of the polishing cover (7) is also spherically shaped, so that they can illuminate the optical lenses on the outside of the polishing seat (6).
[0035] Install the polishing base (6) with the optical lens back onto the upper end of the rotating shaft (5) and fix it in position. Raise the pressure rod (10) and place the polishing cover (7) on the upper side of the polishing base (6). Make the connector (8) on the pressure rod (10) embedded in the center of the upper side of the polishing cover (7). Under the action of the spring telescopic rod (12), the pressure rod (10) applies appropriate pressure to the polishing cover (7) through the connector (8) and the connecting rod (9) to ensure that the polishing cover (7) is stable on the polishing base (6) and to prevent the polishing cover (7) from falling off.
[0036] Afterwards, add an appropriate amount of coolant to the water storage tank (17) of the main body (1), start the water pump (18) to draw the coolant from the water storage tank (17), and inject it into the connector (8) and connecting rod (9) through the water pipe (16). Then the coolant enters the cover (71) through the water hole (73) on the polishing cover (7) and acts directly on the polishing position.
[0037] During the polishing process, the motor (4) is started to drive the rotating shaft (5) to rotate the polishing seat (6). The polishing seat (6) rotates with the optical lens and contacts the polishing cover (7). The polishing work is carried out under the action of the polishing disc (72) inside the polishing cover (7). At the same time, the motor in the equipment compartment (15) is started to drive the turntable (14) to rotate. The turntable (14) can realize the reciprocating rotation of the rotating seat (11) through the drive rod (13) and the swing rod (19).
[0038] The pressure rod (10) reciprocates synchronously with the rotating seat (11). The end connector (8) and connecting rod (9) of the pressure rod (10) press the polishing cover (7) on the polishing seat (6) and swing it slightly left and right. This will prevent the polishing cover (7) from falling off. At the same time, it can effectively improve the overall polishing and work efficiency during the polishing process.
[0039] During the polishing process, coolant is continuously discharged from the water passage (73) to ensure the normal temperature of the polished surface. The discharged coolant falls onto the guide plate (3). The particulate impurities washed down by the coolant are intercepted by the protrusions on the guide plate (3). At the same time, the coolant accumulates at the lowest point of the guide plate (3) and will settle. As the coolant accumulates, it will eventually overflow the partition (2) and enter the water storage tank (17). At this time, the particulate impurities are intercepted by the guide plate (3) and after settling, a small amount enters the water storage tank (17) and will also settle in the water storage tank (17). This will not affect the water pump (18) to continuously pump water for reuse.
[0040] The above describes the working process of the polishing and cooling mechanism. Any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.
[0041] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
