Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of appearance detection light sources, and in particular to a light source for detecting the appearance of the sides of products to be detected that is compatible with products of different sizes. Background Art
[0002] In the field of machine vision, there are two ways to detect the side appearance of a product:
[0003] 1. Step-by-step light source detection, that is, the appearance detection light source device first performs light source detection on one side of the product under test, and then rotates the product under test through the rotating device under the product under test, and then performs light source detection on the next side of the product under test;
[0004] 2. Integral light source detection, that is, the appearance detection light source device performs light source detection on the overall plane of the product being tested, and then detects and processes each side of the overall plane in the machine image program.
[0005] Compared with step-by-step light source detection, integrated light source detection is more efficient and can save a lot of time in automated detection. The industry usually adopts the integrated light source detection method.
[0006] However, the integrated light source detection has the following disadvantages:
[0007] 1. The light source is set inside the reflector, and the light source cannot be adjusted or the light source device needs to be removed before adjustment, which makes the adjustment of the light source difficult;
[0008] 2. The reflectors of this integrated light source detection need to be adjusted one by one, which is complicated to debug and has poor efficiency;
[0009] Therefore, because of the above two shortcomings, after the integrated light source detection is debugged, it is generally used to detect products of a certain size, which is not universal. If the detection is forced on products of different sizes, the debugging will be very complicated and cumbersome, which will seriously affect the detection efficiency. Summary of the invention
[0010] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned defects in the prior art and provide a light source for detecting the appearance of the sides of the tested products of different sizes, which is used to solve the following two problems:
[0011] First, the adjustable light source module is located outside the first reflector of the light source channel, and the angle can be adjusted easily;
[0012] Second, the adjustment ring plate of the linkage adjustment reflection module only needs to adjust the height of the adjustment ring plate to adjust the angle of the second reflectors of the four adjustment reflection components at one time. The angle adjustment of the second reflector is simple, which greatly saves the detection efficiency.
[0013] In summary, the first and second aspects facilitate user adjustment, so that the device can be compatible with tested products of different sizes for use.
[0014] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides a light source for side appearance inspection of products under test of different sizes, comprising a base, a light source channel being opened in the middle of the base, first reflectors being respectively installed around the light source channel, an adjustable light source module being installed on the outer side of each of the first reflectors, the adjustable light source module being rotatably disposed on the base, a linkage adjustment reflection module being installed on the top or above the light source channel, the linkage adjustment reflection module comprising an adjustment annular plate, a height adjustment component installed on at least one side of the adjustment annular plate, and an adjustment reflection component installed around the adjustment annular plate, the height adjustment component comprising a sliding part for facilitating the sliding of the adjustment annular plate and a height positioning part for fixing the adjustment annular plate, the adjustment reflection component comprising a hinge seat installed on the adjustment annular plate, a rotating connecting rod rotatably connected to the hinge seat, a supporting rod installed on the base, and a second reflector rotatably connected to the rotating connecting rod and the supporting rod, respectively.
[0015] Preferably, an outer cover is installed on the top of the base, and the outer cover covers the linkage adjustment reflection module.
[0016] Preferably, a shooting station for placing a camera lens is provided directly above the light source channel, and a placement station for placing products is provided at the bottom or directly below the light source channel.
[0017] Preferably, placement grooves for placing and adjusting the angle of the adjustable light source module are respectively provided on the outer sides of the base.
[0018] Preferably, a first rotating shaft groove is respectively provided at both ends of the placement groove, and an arc-shaped mounting groove is installed on one side of the first rotating shaft groove. The rotating shaft is inserted through the first rotating shaft groove so that the adjustable light source module can be rotatably set on the placement groove, and the bolt is screwed into the arc-shaped mounting groove so that the adjustable light source module is fixedly set on the placement groove.
[0019] Preferably, the sliding part of the height adjustment assembly includes a guide column inserted on the base and a bushing mounted on one side of the adjusting annular plate, the bushing is slidably connected to the guide column, and the height positioning part includes a positioning column inserted on the base and a positioning bolt threadedly connected to one side of the adjusting annular plate, when the height of the adjusting annular plate is fixed, the positioning bolt abuts against one end of the positioning column.
[0020] Preferably, the number of the hinge seat, the rotating connecting rod and the supporting rod of the adjustable reflection component are two each.
[0021] Preferably, it also includes an annular convex wall arranged on the top of the light source channel, the adjustment annular plate is slidably connected to the annular convex wall, the hinge seat includes a mounting groove for one end of the rotating connecting rod to be placed in, a mounting bolt inserted into the mounting groove and rotatably connected to one end of the rotating connecting rod, and a retaining spring clamped at one end of the mounting bolt, and an adjustment window is opened on one side of the casing to facilitate height adjustment of the height adjustment component.
[0022] Preferably, the angle adjustment range of the adjustable light source module is 0 degrees to 90 degrees.
[0023] Preferably, the angle adjustment range of the second reflector is 0 degrees to 90 degrees.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0025] 1. The present invention is provided with an adjustable light source module, which is arranged on the outside of the first reflector of the light source channel. It has the advantage of convenient angle adjustment. At the same time, the adjustable light source module with a certain angle on all sides is adopted to meet the lighting requirements of the sides of the tested product.
[0026] 2. The present invention is provided with a linkage adjustment reflection module, which can adjust the height of the adjusting annular plate up and down, thereby linking the second reflectors of the four reflection components at one time to adjust the angles, which makes debugging simple and the use and detection efficiency fast.
[0027] 3. The optical path layout of the present invention adjusts the angle of the adjustable light source module so that the adjustable light source module illuminates the side of the product under test. Then, the side of the product under test is reflected onto the first reflector. Then, the light on the first reflector is reflected onto the second reflector with a certain angle. Finally, the light on the plane of the product under test and the second reflector is photographed by the camera lens. This optical path layout can greatly improve the light contrast, so that the camera lens can clearly capture the plane of the product under test on the one hand, and on the other hand, the four sides of the product under test have good light contrast.
[0028] 4. In summary, the present invention is a light source for side appearance inspection that is compatible with products of different sizes. The above points 1 and 2 make it easier for users to adjust and find the most suitable brightness, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of appearance inspection, and effectively being compatible with products of different sizes for use, avoiding wasting too much angle debugging and measurement design costs, and greatly saving test time.
[0029] The optical path layout of the third point above makes the appearance inspection quality of the surrounding side appearance inspection light source higher, and is further effectively compatible with the appearance inspection of products of different sizes. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
