Description

The resin lens molding die
Technical field
The present invention relates to the resin lens of resin lens molding die and this Mold Making of use.
Prior art
For example, in the spectacle lens of plastic production, the eyeglass that has the usual range number of degrees is made by the cast polymerization forming process, and the eyeglass of making according to prescription of spectacles, the particularly high number of degrees but also have surface of sphere and the eyeglass of astigmatism, almost all be according to prescription of spectacles, the semi-finished product minute surface made earlier makes through attrition process by giving.
When semi-finished lenses is carried out the attrition process operation, it would be better to simultaneously making the forming face that does not need attrition process according to the prescription of spectacles attrition process with its eyeglass two sides, another side makes unprocessed, and is higher according to the operating efficiency of prescription this green surface of attrition process.
Spectacle lens generally all is falcate, concave surface is by having the die forming of single curvature arbitrarily, make the green surface of common sphere shape, and convex surface according to fixed shape and the curvature die forming by the high accuracy attrition process, make do not need attrition process with the corresponding spherical shape of this die face, if determined client's prescription of spectacles, then above-mentioned unprocessed concave surface is carried out attrition process according to this prescription, make the desirable prescription lens of client.
As what talk about above, semi-finished lenses makes prescription lens, must carry out attrition process to half-finished concave surface, not only need worker's clamp mould of multiple complexity when having the diverging lens of aspherical shape such as hyperboloid or ellipsoid and complicated curved surface in attrition process.And technology that need be very high-precision.Therefore, its shortcoming is just must expensive process time in order to obtain the high eyeglass of machining accuracy.
In addition, usually in single focus lens that plastics are made, through the prescription lens that the attrition process semi-finished lenses is made, mainly be the eyeglass of using as the scope special number of degrees in addition that eyeglass manufacturer produces usually, great majority are surface of sphere and the quite high eyeglass of astigmatism.The eyeglass of making by the attrition process concave surface like that, the thickness of its edge become very thick as mentioned above, and is unsatisfactory in appearance.
No matter also have, be surface of sphere, and astigmatism all is a spherical shape, and the eyeglass of making through attrition process has shortcomings such as the spherical aberration of generation.If the therefore eyeglass of above-mentioned such high number of degrees, the problem of this spherical aberration is bigger.
Particularly, aspect attrition process, the very difficult plastics system eyeglass of a large amount of production and processings on the technology, do not wish to make by the shape that grinds to form essential complexity, but consider complex-shaped attrition process difficulty, need high-precision technology, so difficulty or ease from attrition process, and produce each step efficient and process time slice, more wish to adopt to have the mould that corresponding shape arbitrarily, curvature and high accuracy are made, make the forming face that need not process corresponding to this mould.
In order to overcome the problem of above-mentioned existence, the inventor attempts convex surface is made the green surface of spherical shape, and concave surface is made the semi-finished lenses of the lens surface of the shaping that does not need attrition process, this concave is to have aspheric surface such as hyperboloid or ellipsoid or attaching special surface configuration such as curved surface on these aspheric surfaces, and its achievement is shown in is willing in flat 1-38235 number in fact.
Be to use in practical stage and can make a pair of mould 7,9 that the eyeglass two sides is shaped and the mould of the packing ring that is connected these two moulds (gasket) composition as shown in Figure 4.Make eyeglass after injecting eyeglass resin 4, in order to make the good airproof performance of mould 7 that the eyeglass concave surface is shaped and packing ring 8, make packing ring 8 by following mode, promptly in order to meet the curved surface at position on every side of this mould 7, make the part that is connected with mould height H ' direction changes around, and the consistent packing ring 8 made from die curve E.
