Plastic cleansing using thermoplastic resin is
Manufactured using injection compression molding method (Plastics
Age Encyclopedia 1981, p148-163). Using this injection compression molding method, when measuring the lens surface accuracy of a plastic lens molded using a normal injection compression mold with high precision on the micron order, molding shape distortions such as "warpage" and "sink marks" are always observed. There were problems with the lens surface precision, and the axial symmetry of the lens surface shape. According to this conventional injection compression molding method, the heat distortion temperature of the resin (approximately 110℃ for PMMA resin and approximately 130℃ for PC resin)
After injecting high-temperature molten resin at about 190 to 250 degrees Celsius into the injection compression mold, which is maintained at a constant temperature of about 40 to 90 degrees Celsius, it is A plastic lens was molded by applying compressive force to the resin filled inside and cooling and solidifying the resin.

In such conventional injection compression molding methods, there is a large temperature difference between the injection compression mold and the resin injected into the cavity, and the high temperature molten resin injected into the cavity is heated at a temperature of about 50 to 10°C/min. It is cooled at a rapid cooling rate of . Therefore, large temperature non-uniformity occurs in the resin within the cavity, and the resin is cooled and solidified while having large temperature non-uniformity. As a result, the shrinkage of the resin (plastic lens) after molding is large and uneven in each part of the resin, so "sink marks" occur in thick parts that were hot inside the resin, and the temperature of the entire resin is uneven. It is thought that thermal stress caused by this occurs, resulting in "warping" deformation. This can be achieved by traditional injection compression molding methods.
This is believed to be the reason why a high precision plastic lens with a lens surface precision on the micron order cannot be obtained by molding using a normal injection compression mold.

As a prior art related to the molding of plastic lenses, there is Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 187232/1983. The plastic lens molding method described in the same publication compresses the resin in the mold, and when the temperature of the resin in the mold reaches a predetermined temperature, the specific volume of the resin in the mold is reduced by at least a predetermined temperature. In order to keep the mold temperature constant, the compression force and the cavity volume are controlled to keep the cavity volume constant.However, regarding mold temperature control,
``One guideline for the temperature at which the cavity volume begins to remain constant is the glass transition point,'' and ``transition conditions that are mainly based on temperature changes are selected as necessary.'' There is no specific description of the mold temperature conditions necessary to obtain a plastic lens molded product without leaving any residue.

This loss of axial symmetry occurs not only in concave lenses but also in convex lenses, and the larger the lens diameter, the worse the axial symmetry of the lens surface shape. Furthermore, in the case of multi-cavity molding, the axial symmetry of the lens surface shape was even worse than in single-cavity molding.

In the conventional injection compression molding mold 7 shown in FIG. Alternatively, the distance l' between the cooling hole 3) and point C (or point C') of the cavity side surface 8 is different from each other. The distance l' between the cooling hole 2 and the point C of the cavity side surface 8 is the distance between the cooling hole 2 and the cavity side surface 8.
is larger than the distance l between points B in . Therefore, when cooling the injection compression molding mold 7 by passing a cooling medium through the cooling holes 2 and 3 to cool the resin in the cavity 1, the resin near point C is more sensitive to the cooling holes 2 and 3 than the resin near point B. Cooling is delayed due to the long distance to 3.
Therefore, the resin near point C is cooled at a more or less high temperature than the resin near point B. Therefore, even when the resin cools and solidifies, the temperature of the resin near point C is higher than that of the resin near point B, and the molding shrinkage increases accordingly.
It is thought that a plastic lens having a lens surface shape with poor axial symmetry as shown in the figure is molded.

As described above, the left and right sides of the mold have the same symmetrical configuration, and the same runner gate 6 and cavity 1 on the right side are provided on the left side of the figure. Therefore, when filling a mold with resin and performing injection compression molding, the heat radiated from the resin from the runner gate and cavity on the left (not shown) is transferred to the cavity 1 on the right.
The left side (point C' side) of the cavity side surface 8 becomes hotter than the right side (point C side). This is considered to be the reason why the axial symmetry of the lens surface shape is even worse in the case of multiple molding than in the case of single molding.

Therefore, in the present invention, cooling holes are arranged concentrically with the cavity side surface 8 so that the distances from all points on the cavity side surface 8 of the cavity 1 to the cooling holes are the same, so that The distances from the resin parts located at the same distance from the cavity center axis to the cooling holes are all made the same. Furthermore, a heat insulating layer concentric with the cavity side surface 8 is provided around the cavity 1 to prevent resin heat radiation from the runner and other cavities from being conducted to the cavity 1. By configuring each cavity in this way, the resin temperature distribution in all directions of the cross section of the cavity 1 (all cross sections passing through the cavity center axis) becomes axially symmetrical during the cooling process.
Therefore, the amount of molding shrinkage of all cross sections of the cavity 1 can be made the same in an axially symmetrical manner.

In injection compression molding, in the mold preheating step A, the mold temperature is preheated to the resin flow temperature range prior to the start of injection, and in the next injection step B, the mold temperature is adjusted to the above range. Fill the resin into the cavity while maintaining the flow temperature range. Once the resin is filled into the cavity, pressurization of the resin is started. In the first primary cooling step C, the resin is once rapidly cooled from the flow temperature range to below the heat distortion temperature. After that, in the mold reheating step 2, the mold is heated again to a constant temperature within the heat distortion temperature or the heat distortion temperature + 40°C. After that, while maintaining the resin in Cavity 1 in a state where it can be shaped by compression, the temperature of the resin in Cavity 1 is equalized to minimize molding shrinkage caused by subsequent cooling and to make it uniform in each part of the plastic lens. In the constant temperature process E, the mold temperature is maintained at a constant temperature of the heat distortion temperature or the heat distortion temperature + 40°C so that the mold temperature can be maintained at a constant temperature of 40°C. In this way, the reason why the resin temperature is rapidly cooled to below the heat distortion temperature of the mold in the primary cooling process C before the constant temperature process E is that the resin temperature when filled into the cavity 1 in the injection process B is 230°C. Since the temperature is ~260℃, cavity 1
This is to enable the internal resin temperature to shift to the heat distortion temperature or a constant temperature within the heat distortion temperature +40°C in a short time. That is, by once rapidly cooling the mold temperature to below the thermal deformation temperature in the primary cooling step C, the time of the constant temperature step E can be shortened. In the next slow cooling step, the resin is cooled to a heat distortion temperature of about −20° C., and the pressurization of the resin is finished here. In the next secondary cooling process, the resin (that is, the molded product) is cooled until it can be taken out of the mold, and in the mold release process,
The molded product is taken out of the mold, and one molding cycle is completed.

When the mold is closed and the injection molding machine is turned on,
The band heaters 29, 30, and 31 are energized to heat the fixed mold 37 and the movable mold 38 [mold preheating step A in FIG. 2]. Due to the thermocouple, cavity 1
It is detected that the temperature of the fixed mold insert piece 12, movable mold insert piece 18, and movable bush 19 that make up the mold (hereinafter referred to as mold temperature) has reached the flow temperature range of the resin (175°C or higher for PC resin). Then, the molten resin is injected from the injection molding machine and filled into the cavity 1 via the spool 22, runner 23, and gate 24 [injection process B in FIG. 2]. During this time, the band heaters 29, 30, and 31 are turned ON and OFF to maintain a constant temperature within the above-mentioned flow temperature range, and the weld line that occurs when the molten resin flows inside the cavity 1 (in the case of a concave lens that is thin at the center and thick at the periphery) This weld line can be removed by heat-sealing. When the filling of the resin into the cavity 1 is completed, the hydraulic cylinder 20 is turned on, and the resin in the cavity 1 is pressed with a predetermined pressure via the movable entry piece 18, and the cooling holes 26, 27, 28 are pressed.
A cooling medium flows through the resin, and the mold temperature is once rapidly cooled down to below the thermal deformation temperature of the resin [primary cooling step c in FIG. 2]. Subsequently, the mold is heated to a constant temperature within the heat deformation temperature or the heat deformation temperature + 40° C. [mold reheating step 2 in FIG. 2],
While the mold temperature is maintained for a predetermined period of time, the pressure by the hydraulic cylinder 20 is continued [constant temperature step H in Fig. 2], and then the mold temperature is lowered by -20
Cooled to ℃. As a result, the resin temperature distribution inside the cavity 1 becomes axially symmetrical, and the resin temperature distribution inside the cavity 1 becomes axially symmetrical.
The amount of molding shrinkage of all cross sections of the molding is axially symmetrically the same, achieving extremely similar shrinkage to the cavity 1, which is manufactured with high precision on the order of microns, and molding with a high degree of shape accuracy is achieved. [See the slow cooling process in Figure 2]. And hydraulic cylinder 2
0 turns OFF, pressurization ends, band heaters 29, 30, 31 turn OFF, and cavity 1
The molded product molded inside the mold is cooled until it can be taken out of the mold (secondary cooling step 1 in FIG. 2).
The flow of the cooling medium is stopped, the mold is opened, the movable mold insert piece 18 is pushed up by the hydraulic cylinder 20, and the desired concave lens is taken out from the cavity 1 [mold release step (4) in FIG. )〕. The above also applies to the cavity on the left side of the mold. In this way, highly accurate two-cavity molding of the plastic lens becomes possible.

In addition, using the injection compression mold shown in Figure 1 (however, the cavity is shaped like a cavity for molding a convex lens), a diameter of 43 mm and a minimum thickness of
1.0mm, maximum thickness 14.5mm, radius of curvature 87mm and 30mm
When a convex lens made of PMMA resin was molded, a two-cavity molding was achieved with a lens surface shape deviation from axial symmetry of 0.3 μm and a lens surface accuracy of 0.6 μm. In the case of convex lens molding, unlike in the case of concave lenses, the weld line does not occur, so the mold temperature in the mold preheating process (a) and the injection process (b) may be below the thermal deformation temperature of the resin. Other than this point, the convex lens molding process may be performed by heating and cooling in accordance with the mold temperature pattern similar to the above-described concave lens molding process.
