The silicon rod conveying controller and the visual controller are connected via a network cable or a switch, and communication is achieved through a communication protocol.

[0072] It is understandable that the silicon rod carrying platform 322 is always outside the sensing range of the photoelectric sensor switch 6, so the production line will not be disturbed during the silicon rod end face measurement. The first support frame, the second support frame and the gantry support are all placed on the ground, or fixed on the ground by some conventional fixing methods.

[0073] The working mode of the square silicon rod end face size detection device of the present invention is:

[0074] When the photoelectric sensor switch 6 senses the presence of the silicon rod 7 to be detected, the first silicon rod arrival signal is sent to the silicon rod conveying controller; the silicon rod conveying controller controls the second drive motor 226 to drive the second one-way screw 227, so that the bidirectional screw assembly and the silicon rod clamp 204 move downward to the silicon rod grabbing area; the silicon rod conveying controller controls the clamping drive motor 233 to rotate, and drives the bidirectional screw to rotate so that the two silicon rod clamps 204 clamp the silicon rod 7, and the second drive motor 226 rotates in the opposite direction, and drives the second one-way screw 227 to drive the silicon rod 7 to move downward. The silicon rod clamp 204 lifts the silicon rod 7 and moves upward to a specified translation height; the first drive motor 218 rotates, and drives the first one-way screw 219 to move the silicon rod 7 horizontally to above the silicon rod carrying platform 322, and then the second screw assembly drives the silicon rod clamp 204 downward to place the silicon rod 7 on the silicon rod carrying platform 322, and the clamping drive motor 233 rotates in the opposite direction to release the silicon rod clamp 204 and leave the silicon rod 7, and the second screw assembly rises to a specified height; wherein the lifting height of the second screw assembly is adjusted according to the actual site;

[0075] The third driving motor 315 drives the third one-way screw 316 to move the third slide 312 in the direction of the grating ruler 504. The end face of the silicon rod 7 contacts the grating ruler 504 and the two limit switches 503 are triggered to reach the collection position. The third driving motor 315 stops driving, triggering the cameras 401-404 to collect images. The visual controller performs algorithm processing and calculation to obtain the size of one side of the end face of the silicon rod. After the measurement is completed, the third driving motor 315 drives the third one-way screw 316 in the reverse direction to make the silicon rod 7 leave the grating ruler 504 and reach the rotation position. The rotary reducer driving motor 323 drives the rotary reducer 321 to rotate, so that the silicon rod 7 rotates 180°. The third one-way screw assembly sends the silicon rod 7 to the collection position again. After image collection and obtaining the size of the end face on the other side, the cross-sectional size detection of a single silicon rod is completed.

[0076] The third unidirectional screw assembly moves the silicon rod 7 to the bottom of the bidirectional screw assembly, and the silicon rod transporting mechanism 2 transfers the silicon rod 7 to the initial position. During the transport process, when the photoelectric sensor switch 6 senses the silicon rod 7 again, it sends a second silicon rod arrival signal to the silicon rod conveying controller. After a delay of x2 seconds, the silicon rod 7 arrives at the initial position on the silicon rod industrial production line 1.

[0077] In the prior art, directly photographing the end face of the silicon rod and then performing dimensional analysis will be affected by the focal length and lens, resulting in possible deviations in image size recognition. The solution of the present invention is to directly photograph a picture with a low-gradient scale, establish a coordinate system based on the scale scale for data analysis, which can improve the calculation accuracy and the accuracy of error analysis.

[0163]

[0164]

[0165] A specific implementation method is given below: Taking the standard size silicon rod (182mm*182mm) as an example, the calculation method of the end face size of the square silicon rod is explained. First, the grating ruler size is set to 200mm*200mm, and the camera position should be as perpendicular to the grating ruler as possible. In the actual measurement process, Aθ, Bθ, Cθ, and Dθ can be measured directly, and α1, α2, α3, and α4 can be further obtained according to the geometric relationship. H1, H2, H3, and H4 can be obtained through geometric calculation. The remaining parameter measurement methods are explained below.

[0166] The working distance of cameras (401) to (404) is 200 mm, and the focal length of the lens is 50 mm. Figure 6 As shown, A, B, C, and D are the imaging areas of cameras ①, ②, ③, and ④ respectively. The actual imaging range of each area is set to 50*50mm, and the actual detection accuracy is set to 0.02mm. Therefore, the actual size represented by a single pixel is 0.02*0.02mm, and 50*50mm corresponds to a pixel of 2500*2500ppi. In order to improve the detection accuracy, the value is enlarged by 2-3 times the theoretical calculation value, and the pixel of the selected industrial camera needs to be above 18.75 million pixels.

[0167] refer to Figure 8The grating ruler is designed in a square shape, and its side length is adjusted according to the different specifications of the silicon rod end face to be measured. For example, if a silicon rod with an end face size of 182mm*182mm needs to be measured, the grating ruler scale side length can be designed to be 200mm (i.e. Z=200). In addition to the rectangular coordinate system axis, the figure also designs a scale axis for measuring the chamfer length of the silicon rod, and the minimum scale is designed to be 0.02mm.

[0168] The purpose of designing the grating ruler is to provide a reference for visual measurement of dimensions. The designed grating ruler has the following characteristics: (1) The grating ruler simulates the manual measurement method, avoiding distortion errors caused by poor imaging conditions and further ensuring the authenticity of the measured data; (2) The grating ruler is laser engraved and is tightly attached to the end face of the silicon rod during measurement, which can further ensure the measurement accuracy.

[0169] The edge line of the silicon rod end face under the grating ruler and the schematic diagram of the grating ruler imaging are shown in the figure below. Fig. 9 Take the image of area C captured by camera ③ as an example, the areas captured by cameras ①, ② and ④ can be rotated clockwise by 270°, 180° and 90° respectively to obtain Fig.10 As shown in the schematic diagram, the four area images all use the same data reading method. The following takes the data collection of the C area image as an example:

[0170] The silicon rod edge lines a, b and c in the figure are the pictures collected by the image acquisition module. The silicon rod edge lines are obtained by digital image processing technology. The edge lines represent the actual boundaries of the silicon rods and serve as the basis for measuring the size of the silicon rods. The x-axis, y-axis and m-axis in the figure are rulers engraved by laser, and their measurement accuracy is 0.02mm, where the x-axis is perpendicular to the y-axis, and the m-axis is the line segment of the point (20, 0) on the x-axis and the point (0, 20) on the y-axis (i.e. P0=20). Only the minimum accuracy of 1mm is drawn in the figure to facilitate the explanation of the calculation process. In the actual detection process, the ruler measurement accuracy is 0.02mm. The calculation process is explained below.
