An abrasive article is provided which comprises a backing; and at least one three-dimensional abrasive coating comprising diamond particles dispersed within a binder bonded to a surface of the backing, the binder comprising a cured binder precursor including a urethane acrylate oligomer. The abrasive article is capable of rapid glass stock removal coupled with reducing the surface finish as indicated by reduced Ra values using an RPP test procedure.

A process and apparatus for edging and polishing an ophthalmic lens is provided whereby an edge of a polycarbonate ophthalmic lens is polished to a high luster finish substantially equal to the finish on the optical surface of the lens. The process allows the use of one machine for processing of all common ophthalmic lens materials such as polycarbonate, CR 39 or glass, whereby the lens may be edged and polished with one machine. The process of the invention comprises the steps of roughing a polycarbonate lens substantially without coolant and passing a polishing wheel of the present invention over the surface of the lens substantially without coolant and then passing the polishing wheel over the surface of the lens with the use of coolant for at least one pass over the portion of the lens edge to be polished. A single abrasive wheel is used for machine polishing of the lens edge. The wheel is an impregnated wheel of from about 2 to about 60 micron diamond hardness abrasive particles in a concentration of from about 10 to about 200 concentration. The wheel may be used for conventional wet finishing of lens, blank materials other than polycarbonates.

An abrasive article is provided which comprises a substrate having a surface bearing and abrasive layer and an opposite surface having a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive and a protective liner covering the layer of pressure sensitive adhesive. The liner includes a lift flap secured thereto which does not extend beyond the perimeter of the liner and has a free portion accessible to finger grip. A method of making an abrasive article is also provided which comprises providing a web having an abrasive layer on one side and a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive on an opposite side and a protective liner covering the layer of pressure sensitive adhesive, providing a strip of lift material having a region bearing an adhesive layer and a non-adhesive region, applying the strip to the liner of the web, and cutting the web and strip to form the abrasive article such that the liner of the abrasive material has a lift flap which does not extend beyond the perimeter of the liner and has a free portion accessible to finger grip.

In a contact lens (1) provided with a front curve (2) formed with a plurality of distance portion curved surfaces (F.sub.1, F.sub.2, . . . ) for seeing a distant place . . . )and a plurality of near portion curved surfaces (N.sub.1, N.sub.2, for seeing a near place arranged alternately and repeatedly in concentric zone shape, the distance portion curved surfaces formed at least a central zone of the front curve have respective curvature centers (O.sub.F1, O.sub.F2, . . . ) positioned increasing distance away from an optical axis and the front curve of the contact lens respectively, as the distance portion curved surfaces are located increasing distance away from the optical axis, and further the curvature centers of the distance portion curved surfaces are so arranged that light rays parallel do the optical axis and allowed to be incident upon the distance portion curved surfaces are focused at roughly the same point on the optical axis; and the near portion curved surfaces formed at least the central zone of the front curve have respective curvature centers (O.sub.N1, O.sub.N2, . . . ) positioned increasing distance away from the optical axis and decreasing distance close to the front curve of the contact lens respectively, as the near portion curved surfaces are located increasing distance away from the optical axis, and further the curvature centers of the near portion curved surfaces are so arranged that light rays parallel to the optical axis and allowed to be incident upon the near portion curved surfaces are focused at roughly the same point on the optical axis. Therefore, it is possible to realize a contact lens provided with a front curve formed with a plurality of distance portion curved surfaces and a plurality of near portion curved surfaces arranged alternately and repeatedly in concentric zone shape, from which spherical aberration can be removed.

A lens surface former and polishing tool of one-piece construction and made, for example, of aluminium, aluminium alloy or a zinc-based alloy with one side surface of the block being of convex form and the other side surface of the block being of concave form, in which, projecting radially from the cylindrical peripheral surface of the main part of the block, is an annular flange or ledge which is interrupted at equi-distant points by four tapered location grooves or slots extending longitudinally of the tool so as to be parallel to the longitudinal axis of the tool, the flange or ledge with its tapered grooves or slots thereby permitting the tool to be quickly mounted on holding means forming part of a lens-grinding or lens-generating machine.
摘要:
A lap used for the grinding, fining and polishing of glass and plastic lenses is constructed of a one-piece injection-molded reinforced polymer body. The front surface of the lap is curved and adapted to receive an abrasive pad. The rear of the lap has a skeletal rib structure of projecting interconnected ribs. Polymers suitable for forming the lap include various crystalline polymers and copolymers having adequate chemical resistance, strength, rigidity and thermal resistance.
摘要:
A cloth for polishing a prescription, plastic lens is mounted on a resilient pad having a curvature generally corresponding to that of the lens curvature. The polishing cloth clings to the pad during a vibratory polishing operation, performed with a liquid slurry. The pad is adhesively mounted on the conventional lap.

Quick-change methods and apparatus enable the cutting tool of a lens cutting machine to be exchanged with minimal down time of the machine. A replacement cutting tool is gauged in an off-machine gauging mechanism while the machine is able to continue an on-going lens cutting operation. A stop surface of the replacement tool is adjusted in the gauging mechanism in order to reset the cutting edge, whereby subsequent insertion of the replacement tool in the machine assures that the cutting edge will be located in a predetermined reference plane of the machine.
摘要:
A rosette shaped polishing pad includes a tough, flexible substrate, which is coated on one side with a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive for securing the pad to a polishing lap or the like, and on its opposite side with a flexible, water soluble matrix containing polishing particles such as cerium oxide, zirconium oxide, iron oxide, or the like, having a particle size in the range of approximately 0.5 to 15 microns. The polishing layer is produced by mixing a water soluble polyalkylene oxide/phenolic complex with an acrylic latex, and an alcohol slurry containing polishing particles in the form of, for example, cerium oxide particles. In use, water at any desired flow rate is applied to the interface between the lens which is being polished and the layer of polishing material on the pad. During the polishing operation the polyalkylene oxide/phenolic/acrylic binder or matrix slowly dissolves to release the polishing particles in a controlled manner thus providing a glass removal rate necessary to achieve an optical quality polished surface.
