Steel ball precision counting and size identification device and method

Abstract

The invention discloses a steel ball precision counting and size identification device and method and belongs to the steel ball manufacture technical field. The invention aims to solve the problems of low counting precision and incapability of identifying the sizes of steel balls in the prior art. The steel ball precision counting and size identification device of the present invention comprises a material storage unit, a pre-counting unit, a precise counting unit, an image acquisition unit, a computer control system and a single compensation system; the pre-counting unit is arranged at the outlet end of a material storage disk and comprises a pre-counting disk of which two sides are provided with protruding edges, an area adjusting mechanism which adjusts the working area of the pre-counting disk, and a first lifting mechanism which drives the pre-counting disk to move up and down; the precise counting unit is arranged at the outlet end of the pre-counting disk; the image acquisition unit is arranged above the precise counting unit and acquires the images of steel balls on a precise counting disk; the computer control system is connected with the image acquisition unit; the computer control system controls each moving unit to move and performs data processing on the images of the steel balls so as to obtain steel ball quantity and steel ball size information; the single compensation system performs step compensation on the steel balls on the precise counting disk; and the material storage disk, the pre-counting disk and the precise counting disk tilt entirely.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of steel ball manufacturing, and in particular relates to a device and method for precise counting and size identification of steel balls. Background technique [0002] At present, most of the counting of steel balls at home and abroad adopts the method of weighing and counting. This method uses electronic scales to weigh the weight of steel balls, and the method of manual reading to calculate the number of steel balls. Due to the error of manual reading and the anti-rust oil coated on the surface of the steel ball, the weighing and counting is inaccurate, the counting efficiency is low, and the work intensity is high. At the same time, manual counting will also bring problems such as ball scratches and mixed balls. Mixed balls refer to the mixing of steel balls of other specifications and sizes due to operational errors during manual operation. Once steel balls of different specifications and sizes are lo...
