Abstract

The invention discloses a method and device for detecting a liquid level of a PET bottle based on machine vision. The device comprises a camera, two area light sources, five reflection mirrors, an industrial control computer and a PLC control unit, wherein multi-angle images of the PET bottle are obtained through matched use of the five mirrors. The device has the advantages of a simple structure, convenient debugging, low cost and a rapid speed. The detection method is characterized in that a simple and efficient projection gradient method is used to obtain liquid level information, so that the liquid level of the PET bottle can be detected. The detection method disclosed by the invention has the advantages that accuracy is high; computation is quick and the liquid level of the PET bottle can be detected rapidly and accurately.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of industrial automatic detection, and in particular relates to a method and device for detecting the liquid level of PET bottles based on machine vision. Background technique

[0002] In the process of beverage filling, because the filling machine cannot guarantee the same filling volume each time, the filling volume may be too large or too small. If the filling volume is too large, the profit of the enterprise will be reduced, and if the filling volume is too small, the It affects the image of the enterprise, so it is a necessary link to detect the filling volume after the beverage is filled. At present, the filling volume detection methods in the beverage production line are usually human eye detection and ray detection. At present, ray detection and infrared detection are mostly used in the field , sonic detection, infrared heat detection and naked eye detection methods. Radiation detection is greatly a...
