[0002] By testing parameters such as reflectivity and transmittance of lenses, the coating quality and surface roughness of lenses can be evaluated, thereby optimizing lens design and manufacturing processes, reducing reflection loss, and improving light transmission efficiency and image quality.

[0003] Optical lens inspection typically employs timed sampling testing to assess the quality of a batch of products. The testing utilizes specialized instruments. Before testing, the optical lenses to be inspected need to be fixed in place, usually using specialized clamps or molds for positioning. During peak production periods with a large number of orders, the quantity of optical lenses produced in a single batch increases, as does the number of sample lenses requiring testing. In such cases, traditional lens positioning methods become inefficient, requiring repeated positioning steps, which significantly increases the overall testing time. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the problem that traditional lens positioning methods are inefficient when there are a large number of sample lenses to be tested, requiring repeated positioning steps and thus greatly increasing the time consumed in the entire testing process.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: an automatic feeding device for optical lens inspection, including a limiting guide rail and a clip-type discharge bin, and further including a lens positioning mold and an adapter positioning groove. The clip-type discharge bin is fixedly installed at the upper end of the limiting guide rail. Multiple lens positioning molds are slidably arranged in the clip-type discharge bin. Multiple sets of adapter positioning grooves are provided on the surface of the lens positioning mold. Slide rails are fixedly installed on both sides of the limiting guide rail. A slider is slidably connected to the surface of the slide rail. Rotating seats are evenly distributed on the surface of the slider. A ejector arm for ejecting the lens positioning mold is rotatably connected to the upper end of the rotating seat. A reset arm for resetting the ejector arm is rotatably connected to one side of the rotating seat. A drive component for moving the slider is provided at the lower end of the slide rail. An inspection equipment mounting frame is fixedly installed at the upper end of the limiting guide rail.

[0006] Preferably, the slide rails are symmetrically installed at both ends of the limiting guide rail, the two sliders are fixedly connected to each other, and the lower end of the slide rail is provided with an opening.

[0007] Preferably, the drive assembly includes a mounting plate, which is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the slide rail. A motor is fixedly mounted on one side of the mounting plate. A crank is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. A connecting arm is rotatably connected to one end of the crank. One end of the connecting arm passes through the lower opening of the slide rail and is rotatably connected to the lower end of the slider.

[0008] Preferably, one end of both the top arm and the reset arm is rounded, and the length and weight of the reset arm are greater than those of the top arm.

[0009] Preferably, a feeding plate is fixedly installed on one side of the limiting guide rail, a placement plate is provided on the surface of the feeding plate, a guide shaft is fixedly connected to the lower end of the placement plate, a bottom support frame is fixedly connected to the lower end of the feeding plate, the guide shaft is slidably connected to the bottom support frame, and a spring is sleeved on the surface of the guide shaft.

[0010] Preferably, guide shafts are fixedly installed on both sides of the blanking plate, and sliders are slidably connected to the surface of guide shafts. A one-way rotating plate is rotatably connected between sliders, and the one-way rotating plate is used to push the lens positioning mold to move.

[0011] Preferably, a second motor is fixedly installed on one side of the feeding plate, and a threaded rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor. The threaded rod is threadedly connected to the second slider. A trigger switch is fixedly installed at the lower end of the feeding plate, and the second motor is started by triggering the trigger switch.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. This automatic feeding device for optical lens inspection can realize the timed and distanced movement of the lens positioning mold. The inspection equipment is set at the end of the timed movement of the lens positioning mold. When the lens positioning mold stops moving, the lens is inspected. By repeating this process, continuous inspection can be achieved, saving the time consumed by the traditional lens positioning steps and greatly improving the inspection efficiency.

[0014] 2. The lens positioning mold slides off the unloading plate and lands on the placement plate. When the lens positioning mold reaches a certain weight, the placement plate triggers a trigger switch, and the one-way rotating plate simultaneously pushes the lens positioning mold to one side of the unloading plate, thereby preventing the lens positioning mold from accumulating on the placement plate and affecting the subsequent sliding of the lens positioning mold. This achieves the arrangement of the lens positioning mold to a certain extent. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 6 This utility model provides an embodiment of an automatic feeding device for optical lens inspection, including a limiting guide rail 1 and a clip-type discharge bin 2, as well as a lens positioning mold 3 and an adapter positioning groove 4. The clip-type discharge bin 2 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the limiting guide rail 1. Multiple lens positioning molds 3 are slidably arranged inside the clip-type discharge bin 2. The surface of the lens positioning mold 3 is provided with multiple sets of adapter positioning grooves 4. Slide rails 5 are fixedly installed on both sides of the limiting guide rail 1. Slider 6 is slidably connected to the surface of the slide rail 5. Rotating seats 12 are evenly distributed on the surface of the slider 6. The upper end of the rotating seat 12 is rotatably connected to a device for ejecting the lens positioning mold. The top material arm 13 of the 3 is rotatably connected to one side of the rotating seat 12, and a reset arm 14 for resetting the top material arm 13 is rotatably connected. The lower end of the slide rail 5 is provided with a drive component for moving the slider 6. The upper end of the limit guide rail 1 is fixedly installed with a detection equipment mounting bracket 11. This automatic feeding device for optical lens detection can realize the timed and distanced movement of the lens positioning mold 3. The detection equipment is set at the end of the timed movement of the lens positioning mold 3. When the lens positioning mold 3 stops moving, the lens is detected. By repeating this process, continuous detection can be achieved, saving the time consumed by the traditional lens positioning steps and greatly improving the detection efficiency.

[0024] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4In this embodiment, slide rails 5 are symmetrically installed at both ends of the limiting guide rail 1, and two sliders 6 are fixedly connected to each other. The lower end of slide rail 5 has an opening. The drive assembly includes a mounting plate 9, which is fixedly installed at the lower end of slide rail 5. A motor 10 is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting plate 9. A crank 8 is fixedly connected to the output end of motor 10. A connecting arm 7 is rotatably connected to one end of crank 8. One end of connecting arm 7 passes through the lower opening of slide rail 5 and is rotatably connected to the lower end of slider 6. One end of top arm 13 and reset arm 14 are both rounded. The length and weight of reset arm 14 are greater than those of top arm 13. Motor 24 is triggered and started by trigger switch 20. In use, multiple optical lenses to be tested are first placed in the matching positioning groove 4 on the surface of lens positioning mold 3. Then, the lens positioning mold 3 containing the lenses is placed into the magazine-type discharge chamber 2 and started. Motor 10 drives crank 8 to rotate, which in turn drives connecting arm 7 to move. Connecting arm 7 simultaneously drives slider 6 to move repeatedly, and ejector arm 13 also moves repeatedly. During its forward movement, ejector arm 13 ejects the lens positioning mold 3 from the magazine-type discharge bin 2 and moves the lens positioning mold 3 a certain distance. Subsequently, during its reversal movement, ejector arm 13 rotates under the pressure of lens positioning mold 3. After ejector arm 13 moves away from the pressure of lens positioning mold 3, it is driven by reset arm 14 to return to its original position. This process is repeated to move lens positioning mold 3 at fixed times and distances. The testing equipment mounting frame 11 is set at the end of the fixed-distance movement of lens positioning mold 3, so that the testing equipment on the testing equipment mounting frame 11 can test the lens when lens positioning mold 3 stops moving.

[0025] Please see Figure 5 and Figure 6In this embodiment, a feeding plate 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the limiting guide rail 1. A placement plate 16 is provided on the surface of the feeding plate 15. A guide shaft 17 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the placement plate 16. A bottom support frame 19 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the feeding plate 15. The guide shaft 17 is slidably connected to the bottom support frame 19. A spring 18 is sleeved on the surface of the guide shaft 17. Guide shafts 21 are fixedly installed on both sides of the feeding plate 15. A slider 22 is slidably connected to the surface of the guide shaft 21. A one-way rotating plate 23 is rotatably connected between the sliders 22. The one-way rotating plate 23 is used to push the lens positioning mold 3 to move. A motor 24 is fixedly installed on one side of the feeding plate 15. A threaded rod 25 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 24. The threaded rod 25 is threaded with the slider 22. The lower end of the feed plate 15 is fixedly equipped with a trigger switch 20. The motor 24 is triggered and started by the trigger switch 20. When the lens positioning mold 3 moves to the end of the limit guide rail 1, the lens positioning mold 3 slides off the feed plate 15 and falls onto the placement plate 16. When the lens positioning mold 3 on the placement plate 16 reaches a certain weight, the placement plate 16 overcomes the elastic force of the spring 18 and moves downward and triggers the trigger switch 20. The trigger switch 20 starts the motor 24. The motor 24 drives the threaded rod 25 to rotate. The one-way rotating plate 23 set between the two sliders 22 pushes the lens positioning mold 3 to one side of the feed plate 15, thereby preventing the lens positioning mold 3 from accumulating on the placement plate 16 and affecting the subsequent sliding of the lens positioning mold 3.

[0026] In use, firstly, multiple optical lenses to be tested are placed in the matching positioning grooves 4 on the surface of the lens positioning mold 3. Then, the lens positioning mold 3 containing the lenses is placed into the cartridge-type discharge chamber 2. Motor 10 is started, driving crank 8 to rotate. Crank 8 drives connecting arm 7 to move. One end of connecting arm 7 is rotatably connected to the lower end of slider 6. Simultaneously, connecting arm 7 drives slider 6 to move repeatedly on the surface of slide rail 5. Ejector arms 13 also move repeatedly. During the forward movement of the ejector arms 13 evenly distributed on slider 6, they eject the lens positioning mold 3 from the cartridge-type discharge chamber 2 and move it a certain distance. Subsequently, during the reversal movement, the ejector arms 13, under the pressure of the lens positioning mold 3, push out... When the top arm 13 rotates, since the length and weight of the reset arm 14 are greater than those of the top arm 13, after the top arm 13 moves away from the pressure of the lens positioning mold 3, the top arm 13 is driven by the reset arm 14 to return to its original position. This process is repeated to move the lens positioning mold 3 at fixed times and distances. The testing equipment mounting frame 11 is set at the end of the fixed-distance movement of the lens positioning mold 3. In this way, the testing equipment on the testing equipment mounting frame 11 can test the lens when the lens positioning mold 3 stops moving. The weight of the top arm 13 and the reset arm 14 is much less than the weight of the lens positioning mold 3. Therefore, the top arm 13 will not drive the lens positioning mold 3 to move when it moves back. One end of the top arm 13 and the reset arm 14 are rounded to prevent damage to the surface of the lens positioning mold 3.

[0027] When the lens positioning mold 3 moves to the end of the limiting guide rail 1, the lens positioning mold 3 slides off the unloading plate 15 and lands on the placement plate 16. When the lens positioning mold 3 on the placement plate 16 reaches a certain weight, the placement plate 16 overcomes the elastic force of the spring 18 and moves downward, triggering the trigger switch 20. The trigger switch 20 starts the motor 24, which drives the threaded rod 25 to rotate. The slider 22, which is threaded to the threaded rod 25, slides on the surface of the guide shaft 21 at the same time. The one-way rotating plate 23, which is set between the two sliders 22, pushes the lens positioning mold 3 to one side of the unloading plate 15, thereby preventing the lens positioning mold 3 from accumulating on the placement plate 16 and affecting the subsequent sliding of the lens positioning mold 3. After the lens positioning mold 3 on the placement plate 16 is pushed, the trigger switch 20, which loses its triggering force, controls the motor 24 to reverse, and the one-way rotating plate 23 returns to its original position.

[0028] Through the above steps, the automatic feeding device for optical lens inspection can realize the movement of the lens positioning mold 3 at a fixed time and distance. The inspection equipment is set at the end of the fixed-distance movement of the lens positioning mold 3. When the lens positioning mold 3 stops moving, the lens is inspected. By repeating this process, continuous inspection can be achieved, saving the time consumed by the traditional lens positioning steps and greatly improving the inspection efficiency.
