However, in such a conventional method, the lens material 52 is adsorbed from the container 54 on the transfer device 53 by the adsorption pad 57 of the transfer robot 56 provided separately, and the lens material 52 is transferred to the polishing holder 51 by the transfer robot 56. However, it takes a long time to transfer the lens material 52 to the polishing holder 51, and the lens material 52 is transferred to the container 54.
From the suction pad 57 to the suction pad 57, the suction pad 57 and the suction pad 57 are transferred to the polishing holder 51 twice. Therefore, when the conventional spherical surface processing apparatus is an automatic machine, a large amount of lens material 52 is processed, so that an apparatus for conveying the lens material 52 has disadvantages such as a long loading time and defective suction. Since the lens material 52 is transferred in a large number, it becomes complicated both mechanically and softly, and the apparatus itself becomes large and a large space is required.

1. A polishing plate or a polishing holder is rotated and oscillated to press an object to be processed such as an optical lens and a mirror against a surface of the polishing plate on a spherical axis, thereby spherically processing the object to be processed. A method of transporting optical lenses, mirrors, etc. in a spherical surface processing apparatus, wherein a first step of storing unpolished lens material in a required number of containers and placing it on a supply belt conveyor, and rotating the supply belt conveyor. Second step of transporting and fixing the container to a fixed position, and moving the axis of the polishing holder to the position of the first position passing through the axis of the lens material housed in the container via the supply belt conveyor. In the third step, the polishing holder is lowered to adsorb and fix the lens material in the container and the polishing holder having the lens material is moved up, and then the supply belt conveyor is moved to the right.
