[0028] In one embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figures 3-5The adjustment module includes:
[0029] A stepless adjustment box 13 is located on the image acquisition platform 10;
[0030] Support plate 18, which is connected to the inner wall of the stepless adjustment box 13;

[0037] The guiding unit includes an arc-shaped guide block A23, which is connected to the support plate 18.
[0038] Adjustable guide ball 22, wherein the adjustable guide ball 22 is slidably connected to the arc-shaped guide block A23 via an annular groove B26; and

The annular groove A24 and the annular groove B26 are vertically distributed on the adjustment guide ball 22.
[0040] During image acquisition, a stepless adjustment box 13 is installed. The upper part of the stepless adjustment box 13 has an open structure to protect the adjustment equipment. It is activated by drive components A12 and B27, which can be low-speed motors and are controlled by the control mechanism 5. After the drive components A12 and B27 are activated, they can drive the rotating shafts B28 and A19 to rotate, and at the same time drive the adjustment drive components B21 and A20 to rotate. The adjustment drive components A20 and B21 are both arc-shaped plates with a sliding groove in the middle. The direction adjustment rod 14 It can be inserted into the slot at the overlapping part of the adjustment drive component A20 and the adjustment drive component B21. When the adjustment drive component A20 and the adjustment drive component B21 rotate, the direction adjustment rod 14 can rotate to any position within a certain angle range, thereby driving the acquisition platform 15 to rotate synchronously, so as to realize stepless adjustment of the acquisition platform 15. During the rotation of the direction adjustment rod 14, the arc-shaped guide block B25 can slide in the annular groove A24, and the adjustment guide ball 22 can slide on the arc-shaped guide block A23 through the annular groove B26. Since the annular grooves A24 and B26 are set perpendicular to each other, the angle of the direction adjustment rod 14 can be adjusted to adjust the position of the acquisition platform 15.
[0041] In one embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 It also includes: a telescopic component 2, which is located on the support platform 1, and the output end of the telescopic component 2 is connected to the lifting platform 4; and
[0042] A protective component is located between the lifting platform 4 and the image acquisition platform 10, and is slidably connected to the lifting platform 4 and the image acquisition platform 10.
[0043] The protective component includes: a protective cover 6, which is located between the lifting platform 4 and the image acquisition platform 10, and the bottom of the protective cover 6 is connected to the support platform 1 via a support rod 3;
[0044] Sliding slots 7 are evenly distributed on the side wall of the protective cover 6;
[0045] A connecting slide plate 9 is provided, with its two ends connected to the lifting platform 4 and the image acquisition platform 10 respectively. The connecting slide plate 9 is fitted into the sliding groove 7 and slidably connected to the sliding groove 7.
[0046] The protective cover 8 is detachably connected to the top of the protective cover 6.
[0047] The protective cover 6 protects the marking system when the equipment is not in operation. When marking work is required, the protective cover 8 on the protective cover 6 can be removed, and the telescopic component 2 can be activated. The telescopic component 2 can be in the form of a telescopic cylinder, which can drive the lifting platform 4 to move upward. Through the sliding slot 7 and the connecting slide plate 9, the sliding slot 7 can slide upward in the connecting slide plate 9, thereby driving the image acquisition platform 10 to move upward synchronously, so as to move the entire equipment upward until it is above the protective cover 6. The image acquisition platform 10 is also provided with several heat dissipation holes 11, which can ensure ventilation and heat dissipation of the equipment inside the protective cover 6 when the entire equipment is inside or outside the protective cover 6.
[0048] In one embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 The control mechanism 5 includes a main control module, a coordinate conversion module, and an automatic annotation module. The main control module, the coordinate conversion module, and the automatic annotation module are all connected to the lifting platform 4. The automatic annotation module and the coordinate conversion module are also connected to the main control module. The main control module is also connected to the image acquisition module 17 and the adjustment module.
[0049] Once the target object is placed on the acquisition platform 15, the image acquisition module 17 can acquire its image. At the same time, by cooperating with the adjustment module, the accuracy and comprehensiveness of the image acquisition data can be ensured. Then, the acquired image can be transmitted to the main control module for analysis. The coordinate transformation module performs image algorithms on the outline of the target object to convert the coordinates of each pixel into the real coordinates of the position to be marked. The real coordinates are then fed back to the main control module, and the target object and pattern are automatically marked by the automatic annotation module.
