The conventional optical lens is mainly made of plastic and is formed by injection molding through a CIM (common information model) process; as shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, in the manufacturing process of the lens, since the depth of the middle part of the mold cavity is greater than four sides (the thickness of the edge of the product is greater than the thickness of the center), the flow direction of the melt is as shown in fig. 1, and when the melts on the upper side and the lower side are combined, a combination line as shown in fig. 2 is formed at the combination part, and the combination line greatly influences the quality of the optical lens.

B. a mold closing step: after the parameter setting is finished, the sealing performance is guaranteed, and the die closing process is carried out on the first template 11 and the second template 12;
C. a pressurization step: the inert gas enters the lens mold cavity 13 from the gas channel by controlling the high-pressure gas generating device 3 and the gas pressure control device 2, so that the rapid pressurization of the gas in the lens mold cavity 13 is realized;
D. filling: when the gas is filled in the lens cavity 13, the gas is directly fed back to the barometer, when the gas pressure in the lens cavity 13 reaches a set value, the pressurization of the lens cavity 13 is stopped, and meanwhile, the injection process of the melt is performed by the nozzle 4 of the external injection machine through the injection gate 111 and the flow passage 121;
E. constant pressure step: because the gas in the lens mold cavity 13 is compressed in the melt filling process, the gas pressure of the original set value is gradually increased, and the lens mold cavity 13 is kept in a set constant high-pressure state by virtue of the gas channel under the control of the gas pressure control equipment 2; when the gas in the lens mold cavity 13 is larger than the set value gas, a pressure stabilizing valve in the gas pressure control device 2 is opened to establish a pressure stabilizing pipeline channel, the gas in the lens mold cavity 13 is discharged out of the lens mold cavity 13 through the gas channel, the pressure stabilizing pipeline and the pressure stabilizing valve, and when the pressure in the lens mold cavity 13 is reduced to the original set range, the gas pressure control device 2 controls the pressure stabilizing valve to be closed; stopping the pressure relief of the lens cavity 13;
F. pressure maintaining step: the gas pressure control device 2 sets the pressure maintaining time for the gas action and synchronously sets the pressure maintaining pressure to make up the defect caused by uneven shrinkage of the solution; because the optical lens requires higher functions and has high requirements on appearance and surface precision, the V/P pressure of the optical lens which is relatively sensitive to the pressure needs to be switched by using the pressure;
G. pressure relief: when the gas action is finished and the pressure maintaining is finished, the high-pressure gas in the lens mold cavity 13 is released and exhausted out of the lens mold cavity 13 through the gas channel in the gas pressure control equipment 2;
H. and (3) cooling: after the pressure relief is finished, cooling a product in the lens mold cavity 13;
I. opening the mold: the first die plate 11 and the second die plate 12 are opened to eject the product.
In step E, the gas pressure control device 2 maintains a constant high pressure on the lens mold cavity 13 through a pressure maintaining valve.
As can be seen from fig. 14, in the lens molding method of this embodiment, the gas pressure change in the lens mold cavity 13 is controlled to apply a reverse pressure to the flow front of the melt, so as to increase the pressure of the flow front of the melt during molding, and suppress the spring phenomenon of the melt on the upper and lower sides, thereby changing the flow direction of the melt, and achieving the purpose of changing the welding angle of the bonding line and eliminating the bonding line.
Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used for illustrating the technical solutions of the present invention, and not for limiting the protection scope of the present invention, although the present invention is described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made on the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
