Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to the manufacture of optical lenses such as ophthalmic and / or sunglass lenses, objective lenses, and the like.
  • It relates in particular to the blocking of such a lens during its surfacing.
  • a semi-finished lens also known as a preform or preform
  • a preform or preform is obtained by molding the synthetic or inorganic material that has been chosen to constitute the base substrate of the lens.
  • the semi-finished lens coming from molding is surfaced on one and / or the other of its two optical faces to satisfy the prescribed geometric model and correction.
  • this surfacing operation is divided into several sub-steps associated with as many specific workstations.
  • a machining station providing both roughing and finishing with two separate tools and a polishing station, possibly preceded by a smoothing station.
  • lens lock This recurrent intermediate operation taking and taking part, commonly called lens lock, is particularly delicate and expensive and often induces positioning inaccuracies likely to substantially deteriorate the optical quality of the finished lens. In fact, this lens lock is subject to two cumulative and antagonistic constraints.
  • the lens made of transparent synthetic or mineral material not yet varnished, is relatively fragile and must be preserved from any marking or cracking, especially on that of its two faces which is finished, while its other face is in course of work.
  • the risk of marking is particularly pronounced with synthetic materials.
  • the lens must be positioned on each station concerned very precisely, with a known and stable spatial orientation in a specific reference system of the station concerned.
  • This constraint of geometric stability of the blocking is particularly sharp and difficult to respect with regard to the manufacture of lenses with complex surfaces such as progressive or customized lenses that do not admit symmetry of revolution. It will be understood that the surfacing of such lenses is accompanied by variations in the cutting forces according to intense gradients and thereby causes deformations with, consequently, a relative geometrical instability of the locking of the lens.
  • a blocking support is used, sometimes also called gripping block or mandrel, having on the one hand locking means for receiving and immobilizing the lens by one of its main faces and secondly means for the fixing this support on the nose of the various machine tools or measuring and control devices, so as to ensure the locking, with the possible rotation of the drive, the lens on the machine or the device.
  • the main difficulty lies in how to block the lens on this support, because of the constraints mentioned above.
  • the most common method in practice so far because of its geometric accuracy, consists in forming and fixing by casting, on one of the faces of the lens, from a molten alloy at low melting temperature, a metal block forming a locking support and having the means of fixing it on the nose machine tools of the various posts involved.
  • Such systems use a gripping block or pneumatic mandrel which, to form a kind of vacuum suction controlled, has a cavity bordered by an annular seal against which the preform is resting to delimit with the cavity and the seal a chamber in which a relative vacuum is created.
  • the vacuum can be created either in a box containing, for the locking operation, the gripping block and the lens, or under the effect of a vacuum pump connected to the cavity of the block via a pneumatic valve.
  • This pneumatic blocking solution also called vacuum blocking, does not have the same economic and environmental disadvantages as the solutions of cast or glued blocks previously mentioned.
  • the implementation of this solution is indeed particularly simple and fast, both blocking and unlocking, and it does not involve any chemical consumables.
  • this type of blocking is little used in practice.
  • the solution proves particularly difficult to implement for complex surfaces (other than spherical or toric) vis-à-vis which the seal, elastically compressible, does not provide sufficiently precise and stable support.
  • a pneumatic locking support comprising a central cavity and around it an annular seal against which the lens is supported.
  • Three protruding pins are provided on the support, on either side of the annular seal, to form a tripod arranged to offer the optical lens a rigid seat after elastic compression of the seal.
  • the rigidity of the seat of the lens on the tripod thus ensures the stability and accuracy of the geometric positioning of the lens on its support.
  • the present invention proposes a new blocking support which can ensure a firm and uniform retention of the lens, whatever the shape thereof.
  • a pneumatic locking support 1 which supports an optical lens 300 and which is fixed on a surfacing machine provided for machining the optical lens 300.
  • the optical lens 300 may be in various forms. It may be an ophthalmic lens to be mounted in a corrective eyeglass frame, or a tinted lens to mount in a sunglass frame, or a lens lens to be mounted in a housing. camera, binoculars, etc ...
  • the surfacing machine may be in various forms. It may be a material removal machine (machining machine, clipping machine, ...), or an engraving machine, or a polishing machine, etc ... This surfacing machine will be preferably designed to intervene on one of the faces of the optical lens 300 and possibly on the edge thereof.
  • the pneumatic locking support 1 has a gripping portion 10 for attachment to a corresponding member 200 of the surfacing machine, and a part of blocking 100 to firmly retain and lock the optical lens 300.
  • This pneumatic locking support 1 is more specifically designed to immobilize the optical lens 300 regardless of the forces applied by the tools of the surfacing machine thereon.
  • the gripping portion 10 will not be described here in detail, since its shape will depend essentially on that of the corresponding member 200 of the surfacing machine.
  • the present invention relates more to this blocking part 100.
  • the latter comprises a body 110 which protrudes abutments 150, 160 arranged to provide the optical lens 300 a rigid seat. It also comprises a seal 170 against which the optical lens 300 is pressed to define with the body 110 a vacuum chamber 180.
  • the abovementioned abutments comprise first rods 160 (called “movable rods”) which are movably mounted in translation relative to the body 110 to bear at their front ends 161 against the optical lens 300 , and there is provided return means 179, 190 of these movable rods 160 against the optical lens 300.
  • these return means 179, 190 are partly mechanical and partly pneumatic. They will be described in detail in the following description.
  • second rods 150 which are mounted fixed in translation relative to said body 110 and which have front ends 151 against which the optical lens 300 is adapted to bear.
  • the body 110 is in three superimposed parts, namely (from the back to the front) a base 140, a sleeve 130 and a piston 120.
  • a clamping ring 101 which serves as operating means for compressing the piston 120 against the sleeve 130, which will have the effect of blocking the movable rods 160.
  • the movable rods 160 and the fixed rods 150 are preferably uniformly distributed over the front face of the body 110, such that they form a seat for the optical lens 300 which best distributes the forces they apply to this lens. During machining operations, the stresses in the optical lens 300 are then reduced.
  • the fixed rods 150 are here three in number and are all identical. They are regularly distributed around the longitudinal and central axis of the body 110 (called axis A1) and together form a support tripod of the optical lens 300.
  • the movable rods 160 are preferably at least twice as numerous. Here fourteen movable rods 160 are provided, all of which are identical.
  • This movable rod 160 has a cylindrical shape of revolution about an axis A2, with a front end 161 curved, here of hemispherical shape, and a rear end 162 plane. Its free end 161 is designed to protrude inside the vacuum chamber 180 to form a support for the optical lens 300.
  • This movable rod 160 has, on the side of its rear end, a peripheral groove 163 provided to accommodate a circlip 164 (see figure 1 ).
  • This fixed rod 150 has a cylindrical shape of revolution about an axis A3, with a curved front end 151, here of hemispherical shape, and a flat rear end 152.
  • This fixed rod 150 has a length strictly less than that of the mobile rods 160.
  • the movable rods 160 and the fixed rods 150 are made of a robust material, for example a metallic material.
  • the front ends 151, 161 of these rods are all covered by a cap of flexible material, for example rubber.
  • the base 140 is provided to house the rear ends 162 of the movable rods 160.
  • This base 140 is more particularly represented on the Figures 4 and 5 .
  • It comprises a cylindrical block 141 of revolution about the axis A1, bordered at the rear by an annular flange 142 and flat, of revolution about this axis A1.
  • This flange 142 is pierced with six openings 143 regularly distributed around the axis A1. These six openings are screw passages, to hold together the flange 142 and the sleeve 130, in particular during disassembly of the other parts of the blocking support 1, so that the springs do not come out of their housing.
  • the cylindrical block 141 is pierced with fourteen blind holes 144 of axes parallel to the axis A1, which open only to the flat front face of the cylindrical block 141.
  • blind holes 144 can accommodate the rear ends 162 of the movable rods 161, so that they remain free to slide parallel to the axis A1.
  • These blind holes 144 have a diameter strictly greater than that of the mobile rods 160. They thus house compression springs 179 in which are threaded the rear ends 162 of the movable rods 160 and which interpose between the bottoms of the blind holes 144 and the Circlips mounted in the peripheral grooves 163 movable rods 160. These compression springs 179 form mechanical return means of the movable rods 160 forwards, that is to say against the optical lens 300.
  • the cylindrical block 141 of the base 140 is provided to be engaged inside the sleeve 130.
  • This sleeve 130 is more particularly represented on the Figures 6 and 7 .
  • the rear block 131 has a diameter equal to that of the flange 142 of the base 140, so that their side faces extend in the extension of one another.
  • the rear block 131 of the sleeve 130 has a cavity 135 recessed in its rear face, of cylindrical shape of revolution about the axis A1 and of equal diameter, the mounting clearance, to the diameter of the cylindrical block 141 of the base 140.
  • This cavity 135 has a depth greater than the height of the cylindrical block 141 of the base 140, so that once it is mounted inside thereof, the base 140 and the sleeve 130 together define a compression chamber 190.
  • the sleeve 130 is traversed by fourteen through holes 134, axes coinciding with the axes of the blind holes 144 of the base 140, for the passage of the movable rods 160.
  • These through holes 134 have shapes cylindrical revolution of equal diameter, the operating clearance, the diameter of the movable rods 160.
  • These through holes 134 also open on the front face of the front disc 132 of the sleeve 130. They are flared at this front face to receive annular seals 139 ( figure 1 ).
  • the sleeve 130 is also provided to accommodate the rear ends 152 of the fixed rods 150.
  • Its front disc 132 is for this purpose pierced with three blind holes 136 of axes parallel to the axis A1, which open only on the flat front face of the disc before 132 (see figure 6 ).
  • blind holes 136 have diameters equal to the mounting clearance, the diameter of the fixed rods 150, so that the latter can be engaged by force in the blind holes 136 to be locked in a fixed position.
  • the rear block 131 has two notches 137 recessed in its side face, located diametrically opposite to the axis A1.
  • the sleeve 130 delimits two ducts 181, 191 of air circulation, which respectively take birth at these two notches 137 and which open, one in the bottom of the cavity 135, and the other, on the front face of the front disc 132.
  • One of these ducts 191 is thus adapted to be connected to a booster pump fitted to the surfacing machine, while the other duct 181 is adapted to be connected to a vacuum pump also equipping the surfacing machine.
  • the suppression pump makes it possible to increase the pressure of the air present in the booster chamber 190, which has the effect of pushing the movable rods 160 forward to recall them in contact with the optical lens 300.
  • This pressure chamber thus forms a pneumatic return means of the movable rods 160 to the front.
  • the vacuum pump makes it possible to reduce the pressure of the air present in the vacuum chamber 180, which has the effect of pressing the optical lens 300 against the seal 170 and against the front ends 151, 161 of the movable rods 160 and fixed rods 150.
  • the two ducts 181, 191 of air circulation are here each equipped with a stop valve 182, 192 allowing, when the hoses are disconnected, to automatically block the air flow.
  • These shutoff valves 182, 192 make it possible to maintain a pressure greater than 2 bar in the overpressure chamber 190 and a pressure of less than 0.1 bar in the vacuum chamber 180 after the hoses have been disconnected.
  • blind holes 133 located in the axis of the openings 143 of the base 140.
  • These blind holes 133 are threads in which the screws are screwed in. screws that pass through the holes 143 of the base 140 to maintain the sleeve 130 and the base 140 together and ensure the mounting of the springs and rods.
  • the lateral face of the front disk 132 of the sleeve 130 has a peripheral groove 137.
  • this peripheral groove 137 is provided to lock the seal 170.
  • This seal 170 is here in the form of a bellows seal. It has a front edge on which the optical lens 300 rests, and a rear edge internally provided with a peripheral rib engaged in the peripheral groove 137 of the sleeve.
  • the sleeve 130 is provided to come into contact, by the front face of its front disc 132, of the piston 120.
  • This piston 120 is more particularly represented on the Figures 8 and 9 .
  • It comprises a disc 121 of revolution about the axis A1 and of diameter equal to that of the front disc 132 of the sleeve 130, so that their side faces extend respectively in the extension of one another.
  • It also comprises a shaft 122 of revolution about the axis A1 which extends from the center of the rear face of the disk 121, towards the rear.
  • the disc 121 has seventeen through holes 124 of axes coinciding with the through holes 134 and the blind holes 136 of the sleeve 130, for the passage of the movable rods 160 and the fixed rods 150.
  • These through holes 124 have cylindrical shapes of revolution of equal diameters, the operating clearance, the diameter of the movable rods 160 and fixed rods 150.
  • the shaft 122 passes through central holes 138, 148 provided through the sleeve 130 and the base 140. It has a diameter equal to the operating clearance, to the diameter of these central holes 138, 148. In this way, the piston 120 remains mobile in translation relative to the sleeve 130 along the axis A1.
  • the shaft 122 has two peripheral grooves 123 of revolution about the axis A1 which are located in such a way that they are placed respectively at the height of these two central holes 138, 148. They accommodate O-rings which prevent air located in the booster chamber 190 to evacuate.
  • the shaft 122 is provided to protrude from the rear of the base 140 by its rear end.
  • One of these parts 125 receives the aforementioned clamping ring 101, while the other portion 126 is screwed into a threaded bore by force provided in correspondence in the rings 11, 12 of the gripping portion 10.
  • the clamping ring 101 has a disk-like shape, with a tapped central hole which is screwed onto the threaded portion 125 of the shaft 122 of the piston 120.
  • the clamping ring 101 further comprises two notches 103, here formed by two coaxial blind holes 103 which open on either side of its lateral face. These two notches 103 allow the clamping ring 101 to be screwed or unscrewed in force on the piston 120, with a key with pins.
  • This clamping ring 101 thus forms an operating means adapted to push the piston 120 against the sleeve 130.
  • the elasticity of the O-rings 139 makes it possible to move the piston 120 away from the sleeve 130, which allows said O-rings 139 to expand in a so-called release state, in which they leave the movable rods 160 free to slide forwards or backwards.
