Definitions

  • the invention relates to a spectacle lens edge grinding machine of the type mentioned in the preamble of claims 1 and 2.
  • an eyeglass lens grinding machine of this type is known, which is used to grind a facet on the lens edge.
  • the inside and outside of the lens near the lens circumference is scanned by two spring-loaded pin-shaped sensors, which are constantly in direct contact with the lens and whose axial position is communicated to potentiometers, the values and data determined by these potentiometers being sent to a computer or be passed on to a data storage device.
  • Such a scanning device if the scanning takes place simultaneously with the grinding, causes grinding marks in the vicinity of the glass circumference caused by ground glass particles.
  • one of the sensors needs to be pulled back against spring force to create a distance between the two sensors in which the glass rim can be inserted.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an eyeglass lens grinding machine of the type mentioned, in which the data of the curve of the grinding point on the grinding wheel circumference described by the front and rear eyeglass lens edge is made possible without grinding grooves as in the above known machine described arise.
  • the invention provides the features of claim 1 or 2.
  • Another object of the further development of the features of these claims is to simultaneously achieve, with the acquisition of the data of the space curve, that the grinding wheel is worn over its full or approximately full width.
  • DE-U 85 29 208 discloses in this respect an eyeglass lens edge grinding machine in which the grinding wheel is evenly worn across its width in that the eyeglass lens reciprocates across the width of the grinding wheel, the sides of which are narrow beveled contact surfaces for the front or rear Has peripheral edge of the lens.
  • a reversing gear is used, which is load-dependent and reverses the transverse movement of the spectacle lens, so that this reversal of movement always takes place at the same axial height of the grinding wheel width.
  • the reversing of the back and forth movement of the grinding wheel or the spectacle lens and arranged at a distance from the approximate grinding wheel width are arranged movably, their movement being both the desired data pulses and the reversing signals for the completion of a walk and the beginning of a course of the oscillating movement of the grinding wheel or the spectacle lens.
  • the grinding wheel S of the spectacle lens edge grinding machine is arranged in a rotationally fixed manner on the longitudinally displaceable shaft 1 and is set in rotation by this.
  • two parallel struts 3, 4 are provided on both sides of the grinding wheel in the embodiment according to FIGS. 1 and 3, which merge into approximately vertical further struts 5, 6.
  • a fork-shaped probe head which bears the general reference number 7 and which consists of a web 8 and two parallel fork legs 9, 10, which in their starting position are at a distance a from the approximate width b of the grinding wheel to have.
  • the spectacle lens B is held in a known manner between two half-shafts 14, 15 of the machine and caused to rotate by this; on the half shaft 14, the template 16 is rotatably attached, which is supported on a support part 17.
  • the web 8 of the probe 7 has two short shoulders 18, 19 which end in an oblique edge 20, 21 (FIG. 2). These are each opposite a likewise oblique edge 22, 23 of the fork legs 9, 10, the two oblique edges 20, 22 and 21, 23 forming a vertical gap 24 with a triangular cross section between them.
  • a measuring strip 25 is arranged, when stretched due to the deflection of the fork legs 9, 10 in the direction of arrows P and P1 from their mutually parallel basic position, a signal via a Line 26, 27 is given to a computer and memory, not shown, which is generally known for this purpose.
  • the spectacle lens B with the two half-waves 14, 15 performs in the illustrated example a repetitive, uniform oscillating movement in the direction of the arrows O and O 1 in FIG. 1 then the fork-shaped probe follows this oscillating movement of the grinding wheel.
  • These axial oscillatory movements of the half-waves or the grinding wheel can be carried out with the aid of any means familiar to a person skilled in the art, e.g. B. a reversing motor with a switching claw.
  • the rotational movement of the spectacle lens B and the oscillating movement of the spectacle lens or the grinding wheel carried out at a constant speed are coordinated with one another in such a way that the oscillating movements are repeated approximately over the width of the grinding wheel after a certain angular rotational movement of the half-waves.
  • This can be done with a tachometer for the spectacle lens half-waves and the reversing motor for the half-waves or the grinding wheel.
  • the edge of the spectacle lens B touches one of the forks 9, 10 with the glass front or glass back and deflects them slightly in the direction of the arrows P and P 1.
  • the forks 9, 10, which may have a shape adapted to the grinding wheel circumference (FIG. 7), not only give the control signal for reversing the oscillating movement via the measuring strips 25, but also distance data of the contact points BB of the front or rear edge BR 1 and BR2 (Fig. 1) of the lens rim BU with the forks 9, 10 determined. From the assignment of this data to the angular values of the lens rotation, the course of the spatial curve of the glass edge BR1 and BR2 the front and back of the lens can be determined.
  • FIG. 4 schematically shows the path of individual points of contact BB of the lens edge BU with the grinding wheel circumference (rolled into the plane of the drawing) and thus the path of this point of contact over the approximate width b of the grinding wheel S.
  • the point of contact of the front of the spectacle lens B with the grinding wheel S initially covers the path 50 via the grinding wheel S and then, before the oscillation movement reverses to the path 52, covers the path part 51, which is shown here greatly enlarged for the sake of clarity is.
  • the back of the spectacle lens hits the fork leg 10 and deflects it from its initial position.
  • the point of contact moves BB of the spectacle lens B on the grinding wheel S via the path 54 and the further path part 55, etc.
  • the point of contact now moves via the paths 56, 58, 60, 62 and the path parts 57, 59, 61 etc.
  • the spatial curve of the front and rear lens edge can be determined and saved in various ways.
  • the distances s1 to s7 corresponding to the paths 50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60, 62 of the lens contact point with the wheel S are kept the same and constant from a center line M which lies in the center plane of the wheel S, ie the reversal of the oscillation movement always takes place at the same height on the wheel circumference in the vicinity of the two grinding wheel edges 40, 41 (FIGS. 1, 3 and 4).
  • a control signal is sent to the computer. This records the length of time that the point of contact BB of the spectacle lens B with the grinding wheel S (Fig.
  • Another possibility of acquiring and storing the spatial curve of the edges of the edge of the spectacle lens in terms of data results from the fact that the degree of deflection of the measuring strips 25 is recorded.
  • the different path variables of the deflection of the measuring strips 25 without time conversion result in the space curve values.
  • the oscillation movement is reversed via a time relay at a time interval after the first contact with the forks 9, 10, i.e. after the first deflection impulse of the forks and after the deflection of the fork legs is complete and has ended.
  • the fork legs 9a, 10a of the probe 70 are rigidly arranged on a head web 30 which can be pivoted about a pin 31 which is connected to the forks by means of two springs 32, 33 between the sections 34, 35 and a stationary part 36 is always returned to its starting position.
  • - Fig. 7 again illustrates the preferably curvature 37 of the Forks 9, 10 to adapt to the circumference of the grinding wheel S.
  • the space curve of the glass circumference can be determined via the time or the path of the deflection.
  • FIG. 8 shows a further embodiment of a probe 7b, the head web 30 of which is designed and arranged like the web of the embodiment according to FIG. 6 and the fork legs 9b, 10b are rigidly connected to one another by a web 70.
