A lens disc sorting apparatus

Abstract

This utility model discloses a lens sorting device, comprising: a machine base with an electrical cabinet on one side; a Y-axis feeding mechanism mounted on the machine base, on which a sorting plate is mounted, with a lens inspection area, a loading / unloading area, and a finished product area arranged sequentially along the horizontal direction; an XZ-axis picking mechanism mounted above the Y-axis feeding mechanism for picking up lenses from the sorting plate; and a calibration mechanism located on one side of the loading / unloading area. This utility model achieves fully automated lens sorting by integrating the Y-axis feeding mechanism, the XZ-axis picking mechanism, and the calibration mechanism. The Y-axis feeding mechanism links the three areas of the sorting plate, while the XZ-axis picking mechanism automatically completes the loading of lenses for inspection, sorting and transferring them after inspection, and the empty plate reset cycle, significantly reducing manual intervention. The calibration mechanism uses an arc-shaped calibration groove to perform secondary calibration of the picking posture, preventing collisions or detachments caused by lens picking misalignment.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lens component assembly, and in particular to a lens sorting and sorting device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the sorting process in lens production relies heavily on manual operation: workers manually place lenses to be inspected into the testing equipment, and after inspection, they are sorted and placed into different trays according to the results. This method suffers from low efficiency, easy mixing of materials, and poor positioning accuracy, especially for small lenses, which are prone to scratches or missed inspections. Existing automated equipment generally lacks the ability to coordinate the entire process before and after inspection, and lacks a position correction mechanism, making it difficult to meet the requirements of precision manufacturing in terms of sorting accuracy and production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] In some embodiments, the Y-axis feeding mechanism includes a Y-axis linear motor and Y-axis guide rails located on both sides of the machine base; the swing plate is fixed to the output end of the Y-axis linear motor, and its bottom surface is provided with a Y-axis slider that slides in cooperation with the Y-axis guide rails.

[0007] In some embodiments, the calibration mechanism includes two pneumatic clamps and a calibration cylinder. The calibration cylinder is located on one side of the loading and unloading area. The two pneumatic clamps are respectively located at the output end of the calibration cylinder. The opposing surfaces of the two pneumatic clamps are respectively provided with arc-shaped calibration grooves that match the shape of the lens.

[0008] In some embodiments, the lens inspection area includes multiple first trays loaded with lenses to be inspected; the loading and unloading area includes multiple second trays for loading lenses; and the finished product area includes multiple third trays for loading qualified lenses and a fourth tray for loading NG lenses.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows:

[0011] This invention achieves fully automated lens sorting by integrating a Y-axis feeding mechanism, an XZ-axis picking mechanism, and a calibration mechanism. The Y-axis feeding mechanism links the three areas of the tray, while the XZ-axis picking mechanism automatically completes the loading of lenses to be inspected, sorting and transferring them after inspection, and resetting empty trays, significantly reducing manual intervention. The calibration mechanism uses an arc-shaped calibration groove to perform secondary calibration of the pick-up posture, avoiding collisions or detachments caused by lens pick-up deviation.

The partitioned tray design supports parallel processing of multiple batches, and the linear motor and pneumatic components improve response speed, resulting in overall efficiency improvements compared to manual operation.
