  • Purpose: To design and fabricate the auto pattern maker for the development. Methods: we got the necessary data, needed in design, by using CAD. Based on the these data, we fabricated the trial product for the development of the auto pattern maker. Results: The auto pattern maker were composed with combinations of many elements; pattern making assembly, control panel, frame attachment and prober unit. The pattern making assembly was comprised of the cutter, the pattern holder, pattern remover and silence cover which could minimize the sound during the cutting process. The control panel was designed to be connected and operated with the main printed circuit board. The prober could get the eye shape data by scanning of 1.8 degrees around the groove of the frame through the encoding data according to the address. After starting, scanning was carried out in two passes, i.e. one right-handed and one left-handed. Communication connector could send the eye shape data from auto pattern maker to outer system with the RS232C transmission system. By using the one-way analysis of variance, we got the error rate of cut pattern size for ${\Phi}22mm$, ${\Phi}55mm$ and ${\Phi}62mm$. Because F-value was 0.510 and p-value was 0.601, no statistically significant differences were found. Also, the mean cutting error of the auto pattern maker was 0.0274 mm. Conclusions: we could succeed in making the trial product by applying it to the development of the auto pattern maker. The role of this auto pattern maker is to find a exact required size of lens to fit the frame by measuring the frame. The acquired data are transferred to outer system for grinding and finishing with patternless process. Also, the trial product can produce pattern to fit the frame. Therefore, it was confidently expected that the optometrists could handily produce pattern to fit the frame with this trial product and dispense the ophthalmic lens because of its efficiency and convenience compared to the past.

  • 안경을 제작하기 위하여 안경테 혹은 렌즈의 사이즈를 측정하는 기계를 취형기라 하며, 측정된 데이터를 사용하여 렌즈를 절삭하는 기계를 옥습기라 한다. 본 논문에서는 취형기를 통해 획득한 데이터를 3D 시각화 하는 방법에 대하여 서술한다. 취형기의 탐침자에서 획득된 데이터는 1024개, 즉 데이터당 약 $0.352^{\circ}$에 해당하는 각도로 획득한 데이터로 구성되며, 각 데이터는 취형기 중심에서 경계까지의 거리와 렌즈 혹은 안경테의 높이 데이터를 포함한다. 해당 데이터는 취형기에서 얻은 원통좌표계 형식의 원시 데이터 형태에서 OpenGL에서 사용하기 좋은 3차원 데이터 형식으로 나타낼 수 있도록 재가공하여 X, Y, Z 축 기반의 3차원 직교좌표계 형식으로 변환한다. 그 후, OpenGL을 사용하여 3D로 시각화하였다. 해당 데이터를 회전할 수 있도록 하기 위하여 쿼터니언 기반의 ArcBall을 사용하여 회전 가능하게 하였으며, 3D 시각화 된 결과를 확대/축소할 수 있게 하였다. 디스플레이에서 실제와 같은 크기로 출력하기 위하여 DPI를 활용한 축척 계산법을 사용하였고, 출력결과의 더 나은 시각화를 위하여 평균보간법을 사용하였다.
