[0021] The present application will be further illustrated below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments, and these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present application and not used to limit the scope of the present application.
[0022] A hot-rolled medium plate surface defect detection system, as shown in Figure 1 , 2As shown, it includes a detection roller conveyor 1, an upper surface inspection device 2, a lower surface inspection device 3, glass 4, a counter 5, a laser sensor 6, a brush 7, and a control system.
[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the inspection roller conveyor 1 has an observation channel 1a that runs vertically through it, and a driven roller 1b located between the upper inspection plate 2 and the lower inspection plate 3. The inspection roller conveyor 1 is connected to the steel rolling roller conveyor so that after the steel plate is rolled, it can be directly transported to the inspection roller conveyor for online inspection.
[0024] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the upper surface inspection 2 includes an upper surface inspection chamber 2a arranged above the inspection roller conveyor 1, an upper sealed box 2b disposed within the upper surface inspection chamber 2a, a first camera 2c and a first light source 2d disposed within the upper sealed box 2b, and a light-transmitting opening at the bottom of the upper surface inspection chamber 2a. The first camera 2c and the first light source 2d are used to acquire images of the upper surface of the steel plate through the light-transmitting opening of the upper surface inspection chamber 2a.
[0025] The lower inspection unit 3 includes a lower inspection chamber 31 arranged below the inspection roller conveyor 1, and a lower observation box 32, a second camera 33, a second light source 34, a dust removal device 35, and a sliding device 36 arranged in the lower inspection chamber 31.
[0026] The lower inspection chamber 31 has an observation port at the top that is aligned with the observation channel. The lower observation box 32 has an opening at the top and is covered over the observation port to form a seal. It has a light-transmitting opening at the bottom. The second camera 33 and the second light source 34 are located below the lower observation box 32. The second camera 33 and the second light source 34 are used to collect images of the lower surface of the steel plate through the light-transmitting opening, the observation port, and the observation channel 1a of the lower observation box 32 in sequence.
[0027] In this embodiment, to achieve a good sealing and heat insulation effect, such as Figure 4 As shown, the light-transmitting openings on the upper inspection chamber 2a and the lower observation box 32 are both sealed with glass 4.
[0028] In this embodiment, a dust removal structure is provided to prevent dust accumulation from covering the light-transmitting glass of the lower inspection surface. For example... Figures 3-5 As shown, the dust removal device includes a dust removal pipe 35a and a suction gun 35b. A notch is provided on the side of the lower observation box 32. One end of the dust removal pipe 35a is connected to an external dust collector, and the other end is connected to the suction gun 35b. The suction gun 35b extends through the notch to above the light-transmitting opening of the lower observation box 32. Simultaneously, to prevent dust from entering the lower inspection chamber from the lower observation box, a brush 7 is installed on the notch of the lower observation box 32.
[0029] In this embodiment, to facilitate the simultaneous acquisition of images of the lower surface of steel plates of different widths, multiple second cameras 33 are arranged vertically side by side, and each second camera 33 acquires images of the lower surface of the steel plate through a light-transmitting port of the lower observation box 32. Specifically, in this embodiment, four second cameras are set up, and a strip light source is used as the second light source 34.
[0030] In addition, to ensure the dust removal device meets usage requirements, a longitudinal reciprocating motion mechanism is incorporated: such as... Figure 3 , 6 As shown, the sliding device 36 includes a bracket 36a, a cylinder 36b, a connecting plate 36c, a base plate 36d, a fixing block 36e, a sliding rod 36f, and a slider 36g. The number of the dust removal device 35, the notch in the lower observation box 32, and the fixing blocks 36e correspond one-to-one. The bracket 36a is fixed inside the lower inspection chamber 31. The fixed end of the cylinder 36b is connected to the bracket 36a, and the output end is connected to the connecting plate 36c. The sliding rod 36f is fixed to the bracket 36a, and the slider 36g is mounted on the sliding rod 36f. The top of the connecting plate 36c is fixed to the slider 36g, the side wall is fixed to the cylinder 36b, and the bottom is connected to the base plate 36d. Fixing blocks 36e are fixed on the base plate 36d, and each fixing block 36e is fixed to a suction gun 35b. The cylinder 36b drives the base plate 36d to move longitudinally through the connecting plate 36c, causing the suction gun 35b to reciprocate and suction dust above the light-transmitting opening of the lower observation box 32.
[0031] The first camera 2c, the first light source 2d, the second camera 33, the second light source 34, the suction gun 35b, the cylinder 36b, the counter 5, and the laser sensor 6 are respectively associated with the control system signals.
[0032] In this embodiment, in order to precisely control the camera's startup, such as Figure 2 As shown, a camera start-up structure is set up: the counter 5 is connected to the driven roller 1b by a signal. When the steel plate passes through the driven roller 1b and drives it to rotate, the driven roller sends a signal to the counter, and the counter feeds back the start signal to the control system.
[0033] In this embodiment, in order to shut down the camera during the transmission gap between the two steel plates and avoid invalid photos from occupying storage and computing power, a camera shut-off structure is set up: the laser sensor 6 is set between the upper inspection 2 and the lower inspection 3, and is located on the side of the inspection roller 1. The height of the laser sensor 6 corresponds to the steel plate on the inspection roller 1, so as to detect whether there is a steel plate between the upper inspection 2 and the lower inspection 3.
[0034] When the detection system of the embodiment is used, the steel plate is directly conveyed to the detection roller way through the rolling roller way after rolling, and when reaching the driven roller 1b, the driven roller 1b is driven to rotate, the starting signal is received by the counter, and the synchronous feedback is given to the control system, and the control system signal controls the first camera 2c, the first light source 2d, the second camera 33, the second light source 34, the suction gun 35b and the cylinder 36b to start.
[0035] When the image of the upper surface of the steel plate is collected, the first camera 2c and the first light source 2d are started, and the image of the upper surface of the steel plate is collected directly through the light transmission port of the upper surface detection chamber 2a.
[0036] When the image of the upper surface of the steel plate is collected, the second camera 33 and the second light source 34 are started, and the image of the lower surface of the steel plate is collected through the light transmission port, the observation port and the observation channel on the detection roller way of the lower observation box in sequence.
[0037] When the dust is cleaned, the suction gun 35b and the cylinder 36b are started synchronously, the cylinder 36b drives the suction gun 35b on the fixed block 36e to reciprocate on the glass 4 of the lower observation box 32 through the longitudinal reciprocating motion of the bottom plate 36d, so as to prevent the glass 4 from being covered by dust and affecting the image collection of the second camera 33 and the second light source 34.
[0038] When the system needs to be closed, that is, a group of steel plates complete image collection or reach the gap position between two steel plates, the laser sensor 6 identifies whether there is a steel plate in the detection position and feeds back the signal to the control system, so as to close the system in time.
[0039] The detection system of the embodiment synchronously realizes the image recognition of the upper and lower surfaces of the steel plate, realizes the online detection of the steel plate in the motion state, and significantly improves the recognition efficiency. At the same time, the sealing, heat insulation and dust removal structure is added, which greatly reduces the influence of the harsh environment under the hot rolling condition on the system.
