Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for processing the edge of spectacle lenses according to the preamble of claim 1.
- This known device for processing the edge of spectacle lenses has (at least) a tool which can be brought into engagement with the peripheral edge of a spectacle lens to be edged and which is arranged on a tool holder, and a clamping unit for the spectacle lens which holds the spectacle lens rotates about an axis of rotation which is approximately perpendicular to the apex of the spectacle lens, so that the entire peripheral edge can be brought into engagement with the tool in succession. Furthermore, a control unit is provided which controls the distance between the tool holder and the clamping unit (infeed) as a function of the angle of rotation ⁇ of the clamping unit about its axis of rotation.
- the tool is generally a grinding wheel.
- the known devices have a control unit that determines the distance between the tool holder and the clamping unit —also referred to as “infeed” - as a function of the turning angle kel ⁇ controls the clamping unit about its axis of rotation.
- This control unit can be, for example, a so-called copy control, in which a shaped disk is scanned, the shape of which corresponds to the desired edge shape.
- control unit which is a microcomputer, for example having.
- the invention is based on the object of developing a device for processing the edge of spectacle lenses in accordance with the preamble of claim 1 such that the determination of the actual value of the spectacle glass dimensions is not disturbed by the current processing operation.
- the first sensor detects an edge region of the spectacle lens opposite it, which has an angular distance ⁇ > 0 ° from the location of the tool engagement with respect to the axis of rotation and / or a linear distance in the direction of the axis of rotation.
- the clamping unit for the spectacle lens or the tool holder is moved during processing and / or before finishing is finished in such a way that the sensor detects the distance from the edge region just processed.
- This arrangement of the first sensor largely prevents disturbances in the measuring process due to the machining process, that is to say, for example, a grinding process with grinding liquid. It is thus possible to use non-contact sensors which, for example, measure the area of the edge opposite them with a laser beam (claim 8). Above all, however, tactile sensors can also be used in accordance with claim 4, since the point currently being worked on is exposed due to the rotation of the clamping unit and / or the relative displacement between the clamping unit and the tool holder. Tactile sensors have particularly small measurement errors in the present application and are also particularly robust.
- the output signal of the sensor or sensors on the control unit is the actual value for the momentary egg.
- Spectacle lens dimension The control unit can thus regulate the distance or the infeed on the basis of a target / actual comparison. This means that deviations in the dimensions of the tool, for example the grinding wheel, no longer lead to errors in the edge dimensions, since the edge dimensions are measured continuously, compared with the predetermined, stored values and, based on the comparison, the manufacturing process is regulated and no longer only is controlled.
- the configuration according to the invention can be implemented both in devices with a so-called copy control and in devices with a numerical control:
- the output signal of the sensor can cause an adjustment of the "transmission linkage", which can be constructed in particular in the manner of a "cranesbill".
- the embodiment according to the invention is particularly advantageous for devices with a numerical control unit.
- the additional effort is limited to the sensor and an interface to the microprocessor, which in particular can have an A / D converter.
- the calculation of the correction of the infeed based on the sensor output signal can then be performed by the microprocessor which is already present. Due to the numerical control, the correction itself does not require any additional control effort.
- the first sensor which detects the distance r of the edge region of the spectacle lens opposite it from the axis of rotation as a function of the angle of rotation ⁇ , has an angular distance ⁇ > 0 ° from the location of the tool engagement Has axis of rotation.
- the clamping unit is then rotated at least once by the angle ⁇ during the machining process of an edge region, so that the sensor detects the distance from the edge region just processed.
- the clamping unit or the tool carrier is shifted at least once by the distance "first sensor / tool" during the machining process of an edge region, so that the edge region just machined is detected by the first sensor.
- the first sensor or sensors each have a finger which rests on the edge region of the spectacle lens to be detected.
- An encoder detects the deflection of the finger from its rest position.
- the control unit determines the actual value of r ( ⁇ ) from the output signal of the encoder.
- the first sensor has a stationary measuring shoe or a roller as a support for the spectacle lens.
- the spectacle lens is then moved in a direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation as it rotates about the axis of rotation of the clamping unit, the measuring shoe or the roller or the clamping unit.
- An encoder detects the relative shift between the measuring shoe or roller and the axis of rotation of the tensioning unit as a function of the rotary winkeis ⁇ .
- the roller can in particular be arranged on the tool carrier.
- the control unit determines the value r ( ⁇ ) at least over a certain area of the circumference of the spectacle lens and to carry out the target / actual comparison with the values determined in this area. In this way, local measurement errors etc. are averaged out.
- the inventive concept of regulating the machining process it is possible, according to claim 11, to provide at least one second sensor which is at an angular distance ⁇ ⁇ > 0 ° from the tool with respect to the axis of rotation.
- the angle ⁇ can in particular be equal to the angle ⁇ .
- this sensor detects the position of the edge region or position opposite it in the direction of the axis of rotation. From the deviation of the measured position c. -r facet from the predetermined position of the facet can at least corrective values for the processing of the next processed lens can be determined.
- control unit determines the predetermined position of the facet from measured values of a so-called tracer, which in addition to the values r (jeattach) of the respective lens ring of the frame and its height variation z ( ⁇ ) determined.
- the second sensor or sensors can be non-contact sensors (claim 13) or touch sensors (claim 14).
- the first second sensor (s) has a finger which has a spherical or cylindrical front part (claim 16) and that on the edge region of the spectacle lens and in particular the facet to be detected of the spectacle lens.
- a displacement sensor detects the displacement of the finger in the direction of the axis of rotation. This design enables accurate measurement with gentle scanning.
- a particularly simple combination of the first and second sensors is characterized in claim 17, according to which the first sensor has an element which can be displaced perpendicular to the axis of rotation, the displacement of which is detected by a displacement sensor and which carries the second sensor.
- the first measuring process takes place after the second rotation of the fine grinding has ended (claim 19).
- the glass can be rotated via a hysteresis clutch or an actuator (claim 20).
- the concept according to the invention can be used in devices with any tools, such as turning or milling tools, and not only in grinding devices (claim 21).
- the figure shows a device for processing the edge of spectacle lenses.
- the device has a number of tools 1 'and 1 "which in the exemplary embodiment shown are grinding tools and which are arranged on a tool carrier 2 which can be displaced in the z direction, so that the individual tools can be carried out one after the other, for example of the preliminary and fine grinding can be brought into engagement with the peripheral edge of an eyeglass lens 3.
- the spectacle lens 3 is arranged in a clamping unit 4 which rotates the spectacle lens 3 about an axis of rotation 4 'which is approximately perpendicular to the apex of the spectacle glasses, so that the entire peripheral edge can be brought into engagement with the respective tool 1 in succession is.
- a control unit 5 controls the distance x tool carrier / clamping unit (infeed) as a function of the angle of rotation ⁇ of the clamping unit 4 about its axis of rotation 4 '. For this purpose, it moves the tool carrier 2 in the x direction in the exemplary embodiment shown.
- a sensor unit with a first sensor is also provided.
- the sensor has a roller 6, which is arranged on the tool carrier 2, as a support for the spectacle lens.
- the tool carrier 2 is first shifted in the direction of its axis of rotation, so that the spectacle lens 3 comes into contact with the roller 6.
- the spectacle lens then moves the roller 6 relative to the clamping unit 4 in the direction x perpendicular to the axis of rotation as it rotates about the axis of rotation 4 'of the clamping unit 4.
- An encoder 7 for detecting the spectacle lens dimension r ( ⁇ ) detects the displacement of the tool carrier 2 and thus the relative displacement between the roller 6 and the axis of rotation 4 'of the clamping unit 4 as a function of the angle of rotation ⁇ .
- the output signal of the encoder is applied to the control unit 5, which determines the actual value of r ( ⁇ ) from the output signal of the encoder, and controls the relative shift between the tool holder and the clamping unit accordingly.
- a sensor 7 'can also be provided, which detects an edge region of the spectacle lens lying opposite it and which has an angular distance ⁇ ⁇ > 0 ° from the location of the tool engagement with respect to the axis of rotation 4 1 of the clamping unit 4.
