Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lens cleaning technology for eyeglass manufacturing, specifically to a lens cleaning device for eyeglass manufacturing. Background Technology

[0002] As is well known, lens cleaning is a critical process in eyeglass manufacturing, as its effectiveness directly impacts the optical performance and finished product quality. Traditional lens cleaning equipment typically employs manual soaking, brushing, or single ultrasonic cleaning methods, which are insufficient to meet the demands of high efficiency and automation in large-scale production. Traditional equipment relies heavily on manual loading, unloading, liquid injection, and drainage, resulting in cumbersome operations, high labor costs, and susceptibility to human error leading to non-standard cleaning processes. Single ultrasonic cleaning or static soaking cannot ensure comprehensive contact of the lens with the cleaning solution, especially for complex curved lenses, where localized stains may remain. Furthermore, the lack of mechanical displacement assistance results in long cleaning times and low efficiency. Existing equipment often uses fixed lens storage mechanisms, making batch processing impossible, and the lifting or moving of the cleaning frame requires manual operation, increasing the risk of lens collision damage. Impurities are easily retained during drainage, increasing maintenance difficulty. Traditional equipment struggles to adapt to the cleaning needs of lenses of different sizes, lacks sufficient adjustment flexibility, and cannot meet diverse production scenarios. Therefore, it is necessary to propose solutions to these technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0012] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a lens cleaning device for eyeglass manufacturing, which has the following advantages:

[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. 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.

[0021] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model relates to a lens cleaning device for eyeglass production, comprising a cleaning tank 1 and a support plate 2. The cleaning tank 1 has a cleaning trough at its top. The cleaning tank 1 is equipped with a liquid inlet mechanism, a liquid outlet mechanism, and an ultrasonic device 3. Inclined plates 4 are provided on both sides of the cleaning trough. A cleaning frame 5 is provided on the cleaning trough, and a storage mechanism is provided on the cleaning frame 5. A groove is provided on one side of the bottom of the cleaning frame 5, and mounting plates are provided at both ends of the groove. A rotating shaft 6 is provided between the two mounting plates, and a rotating wheel 7 is provided on the rotating shaft 6. Two grooves are provided and symmetrically arranged. Two... An adjusting shaft 8 is provided at one end, and a sliding plate 9 is provided on the adjusting shaft 8. A sliding hole 10 is provided on the sliding plate 9, through which the adjusting shaft 8 passes and is provided with a limiting block 11. The sliding plate 9 is installed at the bottom end of the support plate 2. The support plate 2 is provided with a lateral displacement mechanism. In this embodiment, the support plate 2 is moved laterally using the lateral displacement mechanism. The support plate 2 moves the cleaning frame 5 via the sliding plate 9. The cleaning frame 5 can be fixed by the support plate 2 through the adjusting shafts 8 at both ends within the sliding holes 10 of the sliding plate 9. The lateral displacement mechanism can drive the cleaning frame 5 to move laterally. The bottom end of the cleaning frame 5... The mounting plate, rotating shaft 6, and rotating wheel 7 combined on the side groove allow the rotating wheel 7 to contact an inclined plate 4. The force generated by the lateral movement allows the rotating wheel 7 to move on the inclined plate 4. Through weight and the lateral thrust of the lateral movement mechanism, the adjusting shaft 8 can move upward in the sliding hole 10. A limiting block 11 prevents the adjusting shaft 8 from leaving the sliding hole 10, thus allowing the cleaning frame 5 to move smoothly laterally and upward, thereby removing the cleaning frame 5 from the cleaning tank. Cleaning liquid is supplied into the cleaning tank through the liquid inlet mechanism. The lens is placed in the storage mechanism. The cleaning tank of the cleaning box 1 is used to hold the cleaning liquid. Ultrasonic... The ultrasonic device 3 is installed inside the cleaning tank 1. Then, the cleaning frame 5 is reset using a lateral movement mechanism. The rotating wheel 7 slides on the inclined plate 4, so that the cleaning frame 5 is stably placed into the cleaning tank and immersed in the cleaning solution. The high-frequency vibration generates a cavitation effect, which destroys the adsorption force of the dirt on the lens surface, achieving deep cleaning. The lateral displacement mechanism moves the support plate 2 laterally. After cleaning, the cleaning frame 5 is moved to the inclined plate 4 on the other side, so that the cleaning frame 5 leaves the cleaning tank, making it easier for the personnel in the next process to take out the lens from the storage mechanism. The draining mechanism controls the discharge of the cleaning solution. Together with the ultrasonic device 3, the cleaning process is automated.

[0022] To achieve high-precision movement of the support plate 2, the lateral displacement mechanism in this design includes a fixed plate 12 and a slide rail 13. The bottom end of the fixed plate 12 is equipped with a support foot assembly 14, and the slide rail 13 is mounted on the bottom end of the fixed plate 12. An electric slider 15 is mounted on the slide rail 13 and installed on the top end of the support plate 2. The electric slider 15 reciprocates on the slide rail 13, causing the support plate 2 and the cleaning frame 5 to move laterally. The electric slider 15 enables precise adjustment of the lateral movement speed and stroke. The rigid connection between the slide rail 13 and the fixed plate 12 reduces swaying during displacement, improving the reliability of the mechanism. The electric slider 15 and the slide rail 13 are common linear movement devices in the prior art; for example, a motor-driven slider can move linearly on the slide rail 13.

[0023] To ensure the accuracy of the displacement trajectory of the cleaning frame 5, in this design, the bottom end of the fixing plate 12 is provided with a guide strip 16, and the electric slider 15 has a guide groove. The guide strip 16 passes through the guide groove, and both the guide strip 16 and the guide groove are T-shaped. After the guide strip 16 is inserted into the guide groove, it can limit the vertical displacement of the electric slider 15, allowing it to move laterally along the slide rail 13. The T-shaped structure prevents the slider from tilting or deviating during movement, ensuring the accuracy of the displacement trajectory of the cleaning frame 5. The guide structure distributes the force on the slider, reduces the frictional wear between the slide rail 13 and the slider, and extends the service life of the device.

[0024] To facilitate the storage of more lenses, this design includes a storage mechanism comprising storage slots and storage plates 17. The storage slots are located on both sides of the cleaning frame 5, and the storage plates 17 rest against the two storage slots. Each storage plate 17 has a drain hole, and each storage slot has a damping block. Multiple storage mechanisms are arranged in an array. The storage slots are located on both sides of the cleaning frame 5, and the storage plates 17 rest against the storage slots. The damping blocks increase friction to prevent the storage plates 17 from loosening. The drain holes on the storage plates 17 allow cleaning fluid to flow through, ensuring full contact between the lens surface and the liquid. The array arrangement of multiple storage mechanisms allows for the simultaneous placement of multiple lenses. The damping blocks prevent the storage plates 17 from shaking, avoiding lens collisions and damage. The drain hole design prevents cleaning fluid stagnation, improving cleaning uniformity. The array-type storage mechanism increases the number of lenses that can be cleaned in a single cycle, improving production efficiency.

[0025] To control the metered injection of the cleaning fluid, in this design, the fluid inlet mechanism includes an inlet pipe 18, which is installed on one side of the cleaning tank 1. A first electric valve 20 is mounted on the inlet pipe 18, which is connected to an external cleaning fluid source. The first electric valve 20 is controlled by an electrical signal to achieve metered injection of the cleaning fluid. The electric valve can precisely control the fluid volume and timing, enabling unmanned operation in conjunction with the cleaning process.

[0026] In order to control the discharge of cleaning fluid, in this solution, the discharge mechanism includes a discharge pipe 19, which is installed at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1 and is equipped with a second electric valve 21. The second electric valve 21 controls the discharge of cleaning fluid through the discharge pipe 19. The second electric valve 21 can discharge impurities simultaneously when discharging waste liquid, thereby reducing the accumulation of dirt in the cleaning tank 1 and reducing maintenance costs.

[0027] 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.
