Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of detection equipment, and in particular to a device and method for detecting the along-edge of symmetrical parts based on air pressure detection. Background Art
[0002] In fields such as mechanical assembly and product manufacturing, due to the geometric symmetry of parts (such as bilateral symmetry or central symmetry), it is easy to misjudge the direction during the assembly process, resulting in the incorrect installation of parts, which in turn affects the product's function, appearance, or performance. This is especially true for symmetrical workpieces such as air duct panels, which are prone to side-to-side reversal issues. Two parts that should be installed symmetrically (such as the left and right parts) are incorrectly installed in the same direction. The later the problem is discovered, the higher the cost of rework, disassembly, and replacement of parts, which affects production efficiency. In the current context, most small and medium-sized enterprises use manual visual inspection for inspection and judgment, which is not only inefficient but also carries the risk of misjudgment.

A pressure equalizing cavity 7 is provided in the centralized control main board 5. There is only one group of pressure equalizing cavity 7. A main flow channel 8 is provided in the centralized control distribution board 6. Figure 6 As shown in , the main channel 8 is provided with several groups, which correspond one to one with the detection air nozzle 4. An electromagnetic air valve 9 is provided between the main channel 8 and the pressure equalizing chamber 7, and the on-off control is performed by the electromagnetic air valve 9. The other end of the main channel 8 is connected to the detection air nozzle 4 through a pipeline.

[0051] When the synchronous coupling 808 moves axially toward the direction of the pressure plug 807 , the loop contact disc 809 contacts the contact spring 811 , and the contact spring 811 forms a loop through the loop contact disc 809 , thereby detecting the movement of the synchronous coupling 808 .
[0052] A transverse groove 601 is provided in the centralized control panel 6, which cross-sections the main channel 8. A self-inspection slide 602 is provided in the transverse groove 601.

[0058] A synchronous back plate 716 is fixedly provided at the end of the blocking shaft 713, and the synchronous back plate 716 is fixedly installed with the self-inspection slide 602. A magnetic plate 717 is fixedly provided on the synchronous back plate 716, and a permanent magnet 718 is fixedly provided on the centralized control panel 6. The permanent magnet 718 and the magnetic plate 717 are magnetically engaged, so that the blocking shaft 713 has a movement tendency to move toward the inside of the pressure relief socket 712.
[0059] A detection method for a symmetrical part along-edge detection device based on air pressure detection, the method comprising the following steps:
[0060] Step 1: Position and place the assembled parts on the platform substrate 1;
[0061] Step 2: Control the detection nozzle 4 downward through the cylinder 2;
[0062] Step 3: After the detection air nozzle 4 moves down to its proper position, the detection air nozzle 4 is controlled to eject air. When the detection air nozzle 4 ejects air smoothly, the positions of the detection air nozzle 4 and the detected hole 3 correspond to each other, and the parts are installed in the positive direction.
[0063] When the detection air nozzle 4 is blocked, the detection air nozzle 4 and the detected hole 3 are dislocated up and down, and the parts are installed in reverse.
[0064] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the part product 10 is placed above the platform substrate 1 for inspection. The upper surface of the platform substrate 1 is inserted with positioning pins 101, and the part product 10 is positioned and limited by the positioning pins 101, so that the position of the part product 10 can be determined when the part product 10 is placed.
[0065] like Figure 1 As shown in FIG, an adjustment rail 102 is fixedly provided above the platform base plate 1, and a rail slide 103 is slidably provided above the adjustment rail 102. The rail slide 103 has a locking function and can be locked in position relative to the adjustment rail 102. A cylinder bracket 104 is fixedly provided on the rail slide 103, and the cylinder 2 is mounted on the cylinder bracket 104.
[0066] like Figure 3 As shown in FIG, a rubber ring 401 is fixedly provided at the lower portion of the detection air nozzle 4 , and the detection air nozzle 4 is in sealing contact with the surface of the component product 10 through the rubber ring 401 .
[0067] like Figure 6 As shown in FIG, a gas source input screw hole 719 is provided on one side of the pressure equalizing chamber 7, through which the pressure equalizing chamber 7 is connected to the external gas source. A centralized control output screw hole 812 is provided at the end of the main channel 8, through which a pipe is installed, so that the main channel 8 is connected to the detection gas nozzle 4 in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0068] The present invention performs detection through the detection hole 3 opened on the part product 10. The detection hole 3 adopts an asymmetric design, so that when the installation direction of the part product 10 is correct, the detection air nozzle 4 moves downward to form an unobstructed air path through the detection hole 3. Otherwise, the lower part of the detection air nozzle 4 is blocked by the upper surface of the part product 10.
[0069] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown in the figure, the gas source is connected to the interior of the pressure equalizing chamber 7 through the gas source input screw hole 719, so that the interior of the pressure equalizing chamber 7 is in a positive pressure state, and the gas pressure acts on the pressure plug disk 807 through the docking tube 805. At this time, the circuit contact disk 809 and the contact spring 811 are in a separated state.
[0070] When the gas nozzle 4 needs to be tested for air flow, the electromagnetic valve 9 is controlled to open, and the positive pressure gas in the pressure equalizing chamber 7 enters the main channel 8 through the electromagnetic valve 9, and is input into the test gas nozzle 4 through the centralized control output screw hole 812. At this time, if a smooth air path is formed below the test gas nozzle 4, the gas is directly ejected into the outside atmosphere through the test gas nozzle 4. Since the main channel 8 is connected to the outside atmosphere through the test gas nozzle 4, the gas pressure in the main channel 8 is extremely low, much lower than the gas pressure in the pressure equalizing chamber 7. Figure 7 As shown in the figure, the main channel 8 is connected to the pressure-sensing chamber 802 through the branch channel 801, and the pressure-equalizing chamber 7 is connected to the pressure-applying chamber 804 through the docking tube 805. At this time, the gas pressure acting on the pressure-sensing plug disc 806 is much smaller than the gas pressure on the pressure-applying plug disc 807, and the circuit contact disc 809 does not move.
[0071] When the detection nozzle 4 is blocked due to misalignment with the detected hole 3, the gas in the main channel 8 cannot be discharged to the outside atmosphere through the detection nozzle 4. At this time, the pressure equalizing chamber 7 forms a stable gas connection circuit with the pressure sensing chamber 802 through the main channel 8 and the branch channel 801 in turn. The gas pressure acting on the pressure sensing plug 806 is the same as the gas pressure acting on the pressure plug 807. According to the pressure formula, when the gas pressure is constant, the force generated is proportional to the area. Since the diameter of the pressure sensing plug 806 is large, the pressure applied to the pressure plug 807 is proportional to the area. The pressure-applying plug disc 807 and the pressure-sensing plug disc 806 have a larger area. When the force is unbalanced, the driving circuit contact disc 809 moves toward the contact spring 811, so that the circuit contact disc 809 and the contact spring 811 contact to form a circuit. After the pin block 810 detects that the circuit of the contact spring 811 is closed, the movement state of the circuit contact disc 809 is known, and it is judged that a blockage is formed below the detection air nozzle 4, the detection air nozzle 4 is misaligned with the detected hole 3, and the component product 10 is installed in reverse, and an audible and visual alarm prompt is given.
[0072] In the above process, when a blockage is formed below the detection air nozzle 4, the present invention achieves this by utilizing the area difference to make the forces on the pressure-sensing plug disc 806 and the pressure-applying plug disc 807 unbalanced under the condition of the same air pressure. It can adapt to lower air pressure conditions, and the difference in the unbalanced forces only needs to overcome the friction between the pistons of the pressure-sensing plug disc 806 and the pressure-applying plug disc 807. By ensuring that the working friction between the pressure-sensing plug disc 806 and the pressure-applying plug disc 807 is small enough, triggering can be guaranteed when the air pressure is extremely low. Compared with the traditional method of directly setting an air pressure sensor to detect a fixed trigger threshold, it can avoid the situation where it is difficult to trigger when the air source pressure is lower than the threshold; and if the threshold is set too low, when the air source pressure is high, there will still be a certain proportion of positive pressure in the main channel 8 when the lower part of the detection air nozzle 4 is unobstructed, which is prone to false alarm triggering.
[0073] When the electromagnetic valve 9 is opened and closed, the pressure in the pressure equalizing chamber 7 will fluctuate greatly. When the gas in the pressure equalizing chamber 7 suddenly flows out through the electromagnetic valve 9, Figure 7 As shown in the figure, the stabilizing plug disc 707 is driven to move right under the elastic force of the stabilizing spring 720, so that the gas in the stabilizing chamber 701 enters the pressure equalizing chamber 7. When a large amount of gas suddenly flows into the pressure equalizing chamber 7, causing the air pressure to rise, the stabilizing plug disc 707 can elastically move left to accommodate it, thereby achieving a certain degree of pressure stabilization effect.
[0074] During the pressure stabilization process, the stabilizing plug 707 moves back and forth, and the reciprocating movement of the stabilizing plug 707 drives the high-pressure piston 705 to move back and forth. The high-pressure piston 705 and the high-pressure pipe 703 cooperate to form a pump body structure, and cooperate with the one-way air inlet valve 710 and the one-way air delivery valve 709 to absorb the external air pressure and pump it into the air storage tank 708. Figure 7 As shown in , the piston area of the stabilizing plug 707 is much larger than the piston area of the high-pressure piston 705, which can proportionally enhance the pumping pressure of the high-pressure piston 705.
[0075] As the usage time increases, the gas pressure in the gas tank 708 gradually increases, and the air pressure in the gas tank 708 acts on the end face of the blocking plug shaft 713. At this time, the blocking plug shaft 713 is locked in position by the attraction magnetic force between the magnetic plate 717 and the permanent magnet 718, and the magnetic plate 717 and the permanent magnet 718 are in direct contact. At this time, the attraction magnetic force is the largest. Once the gas pressure in the gas tank 708 can push the blocking plug shaft 713 to move to the left, the magnetic plate 717 and the permanent magnet 718 will begin to separate, and due to the distance between the magnetic plate 717 and the permanent magnet 718, as the distance increases, the magnetic attraction force is greatly attenuated, so that once the blocking plug shaft 713 moves to the left under the drive of air pressure, it can directly move significantly to the left. Because the side locking shaft 714 tends to extend under the pressure of the gas in the gas tank 708, when the end of the blocking plug 713 moves leftward and passes through the side locking shaft 714, the side locking shaft 714 will extend into the pressure relief socket 712, preventing the blocking plug 713 from returning to its original position. At this time, the gas in the gas tank 708 continues to be discharged to the outside through the pressure relief socket 712.
[0076] At the same time, due to the leftward movement of the blocking plug shaft 713, the synchronous back plate 716, and the self-inspection slide plate 602 and other structures, the normally open hole 603 and the main channel 8 will be misaligned, and the end of the main channel 8 will be blocked. At this time, the main channel 8 is no longer connected to the detection air nozzle 4, and the electromagnetic air valve 9 is controlled to open. Similarly, the pressure equalizing chamber 7 is directly and stably connected to the pressure sensing chamber 802 through the main channel 8. The device performs regular self-inspections according to the usage time, and can promptly detect any stuck problems in the blocking detection structure.
[0077] When the gas pressure in the gas tank 708 is discharged to below a certain threshold, the pressure of the gas pressure in the gas tank 708 acting on the end face of the lateral lock shaft 714 is less than the elastic tension of the lock shaft spring piece 715, so that the lateral lock shaft 714 resets and moves under the elastic tension of the lock shaft spring piece 715. At this time, the lateral lock shaft 714 is pulled out from the pressure relief socket 712 and no longer blocks the blocking plug shaft 713. Under the action of the magnetic attraction between the magnetic attraction plate 717 and the permanent magnet 718, the blocking plug shaft 713 is reinserted and locked into the pressure relief socket 712, thereby realizing automatic reset of the device.
[0078] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and that the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
