Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for thermoforming a plastic film.
- thermoforming device which may comprise:
- a chamber with variable internal pressure which comprises an opening in one face of this chamber
- a film fixing system around the opening, which is adapted to firmly hold a peripheral edge of the film so that the film forms a tight closure of the enclosure;
- this measuring system being disposed outside the enclosure and in front of the opening thereof; this ;
- a film heating system which is adapted to heat the film held by the fastening system, and which itself comprises a hot air blowing unit arranged to produce a flow of hot air flowing through the wall; outside the enclosure in contact with the film.
- the film which is held by the fixing system has, in the opening of the enclosure, a deformation which is variable depending on the pressure that is created in the enclosure. In this way, the plastic film can be hot deformed, with an amplitude of deformation which is controlled by measuring the deflection of the film in the opening of the enclosure.
- thermoforming device also performs the application of the film on the substrate, which is particularly advantageous compared to the number of manipulations of the film that are necessary to assemble the film and the substrate together.
- the measurement system of this arrow must be located substantially to the right of the center of the opening of the enclosure. For this reason, and when the internal volume of the enclosure is already occupied by the substrate, this system of measurement of the arrow is placed outside the enclosure.
- thermoforming devices of the type under consideration which are already used, the heating system of the film is also located outside the enclosure, next to the system for measuring the arrow of the film.
- This heating system is commonly of the type infrared radiation or hot air blowing. But the resulting congestion, in the space that is located in front of the opening of the enclosure, outside of it, disrupts the heating of the film. The temperature of the heated film then varies between points of it which are separated. The deformation of the film produced by the thermoforming then has a distribution that no longer corresponds to the shape that is desired.
- the distribution of this deformation is no longer invariant by rotation around an axis which is perpendicular to the face of the enclosure which comprises the opening, and which passes through the center of this opening.
- thermoforming devices are used to preform a plastic film which is intended to be applied to an optical lens.
- the quality requirements of the final optical component are then particularly high, especially when it is a component Ophthalmic lens type eyeglass or lens glass blank. Indeed, for this field of applications, the final product is rejected when stretching, creasing, tearing, crushing or scratching of the film are visible to the naked eye.
- the thermoforming devices that are currently used are not satisfactory.
- An object of the present invention is then to provide a thermoforming device which does not have the above disadvantages, and which is compatible with the quality requirements of optical or ophthalmic products.
- the invention proposes the improvement of a thermoforming device as described above, according to which the blowing unit is adapted so that the flow of hot air flows parallel to the plastic film from a first side side of the opening of the enclosure to a second lateral side of this opening, which is opposite the first side.
- the hot air that is used to heat the plastic film can be fed to the latter from a lateral side of the enclosure, which reduces the space requirement which is located at outside the enclosure in front of the opening.
- the film arrow measuring system can then be disposed in this space to the right of the film, correctly to provide accurate film arrow measurements.
- the flow of hot air flows parallel to the film between two opposing sides thereof, the flow of this hot air can be particularly stable, and with a distribution which is constant at contact with the plastic film.
- the temperature of the heated film is then more uniform, so that the thermoforming gives the film a deformation which is distributed in the desired manner.
- the subsequent application of the film on the substrate no longer produces defects that are prohibitive for the final product, even when it is an optical or ophthalmic product such as a lens or a spectacle lens.
- the thermoforming device is adapted so that the flow of hot air forms a laminar flow, in particular without turbulence, parallel to and in contact with the film, between the first and the second lateral side of the opening of the enclosure.
- a tangential laminar flow of the hot air flow on the plastic film prevents the deformed plastic film from being pushed back by the hot air flow towards the second lateral side.
- the deformation of the film is distributed more isotropically around the central axis which is perpendicular to the opening.
- the following improvements of the invention make it possible to further improve the distribution of the hot air flow on the film, and therefore the distribution of the deformation which is imparted to the film by thermoforming.
- the device may comprise a ring which extends around the opening of the chamber, outside thereof, with a slanted face in a meridian plane of the opening, and a lower inner edge of this inclined face which is arranged to come into contact with or near the film held by the fastening system, along at least part of the peripheral edge of the film.
- the blowing unit is then arranged to produce the flow of hot air from an upper outer edge of the inclined face, on the first lateral side of the opening of the enclosure.
- the flow of hot air is guided by the inclined face of the crown to the plastic film, or to a proximity of the plastic film, avoiding a stationary air zone is present in an angle that would be set back between the crown and the plastic film.
- the hot air blowing unit may comprise a nozzle which has a hot air outlet section oriented towards the opening of the chamber, on the first lateral side. of the opening, and the nozzle may itself comprise a deflector with an oblique deflection face, which is arranged to fold the flow of hot air to the film held by the fastening system.
- the flow of hot air is further guided upstream of its arrival on the plastic film, to further establish a flow of air that is stable and laminar.
- an angle of the inclined face of the crown on the one hand and an angle of the deflection face on the other hand can have a difference which is less than 20 °, preferably less than 10 °, these two angles being measured from an axis perpendicular to the face of the enclosure, and in a meridian plane of its opening which connects the two lateral sides.
- the nozzle may comprise internal partitions which are arranged longitudinally, to form a partition of the nozzle into separate channels which are intended to guide the hot air to the outlet section of the nozzle.

- the shape of the face of the spectacle lens blank can be likened to a portion of a sphere, even if it is a complex surface without an axis of symmetry, for example example for a progressive spectacle lens.
- the plastic film can also be of any kind, consisting of one or more materials that can be hot deformed.
- the plastic film may have any function, or several functions such as antireflection, anti-fouling, anti-scratch, anti-shock, anti-fog, photochromic, etc.
- the plastic film may have a complex structure, multilayer or cellular.
- film means the element which is initially planar and which is intended to be preformed and then applied globally to the eyeglass lens blank, whatever its internal structure.
- a plastic film thermoforming device comprises:
- a system for varying and controlling the pressure inside the enclosure 100 which may consist of a pump 101, denoted P, and a pressure detector in the enclosure 100, not shown;

- the latter is designated by the reference 400 in FIG.
- the spectacle lens blank 400 may be placed on the support 102 so as to present towards the film 200, the face S 4 oo of the blank on which the film 200 is intended to be applied.
- the face S 4 oo may be the convex face of the spectacle lens.
- the support 102 may be adapted to move the eyeglass lens blank 400 to the film 200, in particular to mount the blank until it comes into contact with the film 200.
- the support 102 can be provided with a cylinder 103 which can be mounted inside a piston 104, in a controlled manner, for example with hydraulic means 105.
- the fixing system of the plastic film 200 in the opening O can be combined with one of the improvements of the invention, as will be described in detail below.
- the film 200 Since the film 200 is plastic when it has been previously heated, it acquires a deformation through the opening O, towards the outside or towards the inside of the enclosure 100, depending on whether it is placed under an overpressure or under a vacuum relative to the outside, by means of the pump 101.
- the amplitude of this deformation can be characterized by the arrow f of the film 200 at a central point of the opening O. This arrow f is marked with respect to the initial position of the film 200, before the pressure in the chamber 100 be varied. For most applications, the initial shape of the film 200 is flat.
- the system 300 for measuring the deformation of the plastic film 200 is disposed above the center of the opening O, outside the enclosure 100. In this position, it allows measurements of the arrow f which are accurate.
- the system 300 may include itself: a detection head 301, which is adapted to receive a signal R coming from a central part of the film 200 held by the fixing system;
- a system 303 for moving the detection head 301 which is adapted to move the head 301 towards or away from the central portion of the film 200;
- a system 304 for controlling the displacement system 303 which is adapted to activate the system 303 so as to maintain a constant amplitude of the signal R received by the detection head 301;
- a system 305 for reading a position of the detection head 301 is a system 305 for reading a position of the detection head 301.
- Such a measurement system 300 makes it possible to measure the arrow f of the film 200 at any moment, in particular in a continuous manner while the film is heated. It also makes it possible to measure the arrow f by using a signal that has a constant amplitude, when this signal is received by the detection head 301. The measurement of the arrow f then corresponds to the displacement that is produced by the system 303. It is read on the system 305. Particularly accurate measurements of the arrow f can thus be obtained.
- the signal R which is received by the detection head 301 can be produced by a separate transmission head 302. In this case, the two transmission 302 and detection 301 heads are moved simultaneously by the system 303. Detection head 301 can also have the transmission function, depending on the measurement technology that is used.
