Definitions
- the present invention relates to a lens layout 'block device.
- a prescription lens is selected from stock lenses (mass-manufactured products in stock) and the If there are no lenses (custom-made items that are out of stock), they will be manufactured at the factory according to the order.
- Stock lenses have a lens surface (convex lens surface) and a back surface (concave lens surface) with a specified lens curvature (carp) based on optical design so as to achieve a specified lens power.
- the process is performed up to the final process up to the surface treatment of a coat and an anti-reflection coat.
- the lens material is prepared in advance as a semi-finished product (semi-lens), which is roughly cut and polished according to the prescribed prescription frequency, and then subjected to surface treatment to provide a prescription lens. It is used as
- the lens When the prescription lens is manufactured, the lens is stored horizontally with the concave lens surface down in the lens storage tray along with the processing instruction sheet, and transported to the edging line. Then, the operator removes the prescription lens from the tray and places it on the inspection table of a predetermined inspection device such as a lens meter to check the lens power and astigmatism axis of the prescription lens.
- Processing center and lens from data and wearer's prescription data Determine the mounting angle of the processing jig (lens holder) for the laser beam (optical rate).
- the lens holder is attached to the processing center of the lens (block). Then, this lens holder is mounted together with the lens on a rimping device, and the lens is rimmed with a grindstone or a cutter to have a shape that matches the frame shape of the eyeglass frame.
- lens holders used for edging eyeglass lenses include those disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Utility Model Publication No. Hei 6-024852, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-225798, and the like. It has been known.
- This lens holder is usually formed of a cylindrical body and has a concave spherical lens holding surface on the distal end surface.
- a thin elastic seal is attached to the lens holding surface in advance, Press the elastic seal against the convex lens surface of the lens and attach it.
- On the lens holding surface a large number of small protrusions with a triangular cross section are formed radially around the entire circumference to increase the tight bonding force with the elastic seal and prevent rotation of the elastic seal. Have been.
- this lens When a lens is mounted on a conventionally known lens holder, this lens is Attach it to the edging machine together with the rim, and edging the outer peripheral surface of the lens with a grindstone or a force cutter to make the shape match the frame shape of the spectacle frame.
- a lens holder that holds the lens is attached to one of the two coaxially arranged clamp shafts, and both sides of the lens are clamped to this lens holder with the other clamp shaft.
- the two clamp shafts are rotated in the same direction, and at the same time, the movement is controlled in a direction orthogonal to the axis based on the lens frame shape data, and the fringing is performed with a grindstone or a power cutter.
- the type of lens is infinite due to the combination of convex and concave carp for one lens power D (diopter), but it is actually determined in consideration of optical aberration and inventory control. More specifically, by adopting a lens design that reduces the types of convex curves and increases concave curves, for example, progressive multifocal lenses are available in 8 types from 2 to 9 carps, In general, the corresponding frequency range is wide, so for example, there are 12 types of curves from 0 curve to 11 curve.
- the lens power D is represented by the difference in curvature between the convex curve D 1 and the concave carp D 2 .
- the lens power is calculated using only the convex curve D 1. They are classified.
- D (N-1) X100O / R (mm).
- N is the refractive index of the lens, which is 1.50 in the case of diethylene darico rebisaryl carbonate, which is the most general-purpose plastic lens material.
- R is the radius of curvature of the convex lens surface.
- lens holders Conventionally, two types of lens holders have been used for stable holding: a force that uses a dedicated lens for each lens with a different lens power for each power, or a shallow curve and a deep curve. .
- several types of lens holders with different curvatures of the lens holding surface are prepared, and according to the curvature of the convex lens surface of the lens to be held.
- two types of holders are used, one for shallow carp and the other for deep curve.
- the method of using the holder is flexible (for example, plastic). There were challenges.
- the holder is conventionally identified by an identification symbol or a number displayed on the outer periphery of the lens holder by engraving or the like. The type was identified. However, in that case, there is a problem that the operator has to display an identification symbol or a number by engraving or the like, which is troublesome. In addition, the operator must pick up the lens holder and check it.If the identification symbol or number becomes unclear due to dirt, wear, improper engraving, etc. on the surface of the lens holder itself, the operator must remove it. It is difficult to read and requires careful handling. In particular, when applied to the layout block device described above, it is required that the operator and the sensor can easily and reliably identify the type of the lens holder.
