[0016] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3This application will be described in further detail.
[0017] This application discloses a lens diameter measuring mechanism.
[0018] Reference Figure 1-3 The lens diameter measuring mechanism includes a worktable 2, on which a vertically mounted limiting roller 3 is installed. The limiting roller 3 is rotatably mounted on the worktable 2 via a rotating rod. The lens 1 is clamped between two limiting rollers 3. The axis of the limiting roller 3 is vertically mounted, and the axis of the lens 1 is horizontally mounted. A contact sensor 4 is mounted on the upper part of the worktable 2 and can be lowered to contact the apex of the lens 1.
[0019] The workbench 2 is equipped with a mounting frame 21, and the mounting frame 21 is equipped with a lifting mechanism for driving the contact sensor 4 to rise and fall.
[0020] The lifting mechanism includes a first lifting module 5 and a second lifting module 6 arranged vertically. The first lifting module 5 includes a first outer frame 51, a first motor 52, a first lead screw 53, a first slide 54, and a guide plate 55. The first outer frame 51 is fixedly installed on the mounting bracket 21. The first motor 52 is installed on the top of the first outer frame 51. The first lead screw 53 is rotatably disposed inside the first outer frame 51. The output shaft of the first motor 52 is coaxially connected with the first lead screw 53. The first lead screw 53 passes through the first slide 54 and is threadedly connected to the first slide 54. The two ends of the guide plate 55 are fixedly connected to the two ends of the first outer frame 51. The guide plate 55 passes through the first slide 54 and is slidably connected to the first slide 54.
[0021] The second lifting module 6 includes a second outer frame 61, a second motor 62, a second lead screw 63, a second slide 64, and a guide rod 65. The second outer frame 61 is fixedly installed on the first slide 54. The second motor 62 is installed on the top of the second outer frame 61. The second lead screw 63 is rotatably disposed inside the second outer frame 61. The output shaft of the second motor 62 is coaxially connected to the second lead screw 63. The second lead screw 63 passes through the second slide 64 and is threadedly connected to the second slide 64. The guide rod 65 is fixedly installed on the second outer frame 61. A lifting plate 7 is fixedly connected to the second slide 64. A guide block 66 is fixedly connected to the side of the lifting plate 7 near the second slide 64. The guide block 66 has a guide groove that cooperates with the guide rod 65. The guide block 66 moves up and down along the guide rod 65. The contact sensor 4 is installed below the lifting plate 7.
[0022] The second motor 62 has a higher accuracy than the first motor 52, and the second slide 64 has a shorter stroke than the first slide 54. During measurement, the first motor 52 is started first to drive the first slide 54 to descend. After descending a certain distance (set by the PLC control system), the bottom of the contact end 41 of the contact sensor 4 approaches the vertex of the lens 1. Then, the second motor 62 is started to drive the second slide 64 to descend, so that the contact end 41 of the contact sensor 4 contacts the vertex of the lens 1. When the contact sensor 4 contacts the vertex of the lens 1...
[0023] An auxiliary frame 8 is provided below the second slide table 64. The auxiliary frame 8 is L-shaped. The vertical part of the auxiliary frame 8 is fixed to the bottom of the second slide table 64. The horizontal part of the auxiliary frame 8 is located below the contact sensor 4. An auxiliary hole 81 is provided on the horizontal part of the auxiliary frame 8 for the contact end 41 of the contact sensor 4 to pass through. The inner diameter of the auxiliary hole 81 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the contact end 41 of the contact sensor 4. This limits and guides the contact end 41 of the contact sensor 4, reduces the skewness of the contact sensor 4 during the lifting and lowering process, and further improves the measurement accuracy.
[0024] A laser distance sensor 9 is installed on the horizontal part of the auxiliary frame 8. The laser distance sensor 9 is vertically installed, and the laser emitting end of the laser distance sensor 9 is aligned with the worktable 2 to detect the distance between the laser distance sensor 9 and the top surface of the worktable 2.
[0025] Before measuring lens 1, first record the distance between the laser distance sensor 9 and the top surface of the worktable 2 as s1. During measurement, place lens 1 between the two limiting rollers 3, and then lower the contact sensor 4 through the lifting mechanism. When the contact sensor 4 lowers to the point where its contact end 41 contacts the vertex of lens 1, record the distance between the laser distance sensor 9 and the top surface of the worktable 2 as s1. The diameter of lens 1 is d, where d = s1 - s2, thus obtaining the accurate diameter of lens 1.
[0026] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
