[0032] The transformer feeding monitoring method includes:

[0033] S100: Obtain the front-end image of the transformer.

[0034] In this embodiment, the front-end placement image is the image of the transformer being placed before loading; that is, the front-end placement image is the image of the transformer before loading, specifically the image of the transformer's placement posture before being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring this front-end placement image, it is easy to determine the transformer's conveying posture before being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220, thereby facilitating the determination of the transformer's transmission placement before visual inspection, and further facilitating the determination of the transformer's placement posture before being transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220.

By acquiring the front-end placement image, it is easy to determine the transformer's conveying posture before being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220, thus facilitating the determination of the transformer's placement status before visual inspection, and further facilitating the determination of the transformer's placement status before being transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the transformer's posture features in the front-end placement image, the placement state of the transformer before being transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220 can be determined, facilitating the determination of the transformer's loading state.

[0037] S300: Perform a resting-direction process on the transformer resting state parameters and the preset resting state parameters to obtain the transformer resting-direction difference component.

[0038] In this embodiment, the transformer placement state parameters are obtained by sampling from the front-end placement image, which is the image of the transformer before loading, specifically the image of the transformer's placement posture before being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the front-end placement image, it is easy to determine the transformer's conveying posture before being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220, thus facilitating the determination of the transformer's placement status before visual inspection, and further facilitating the determination of the transformer's placement status before being transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the transformer's posture features in the front-end placement image, the placement state of the transformer before being transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220 can be determined, facilitating the determination of the transformer's loading state. The preset placement state parameter is the standard placement image of the transformer before loading, that is, the preset placement state parameter is the reference placement image of the transformer before loading, and also the specified placement posture image of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. The placement reversal processing of the transformer placement state parameter and the preset placement state parameter facilitates the determination of the difference between the current loading placement posture of the transformer and the standard posture, thereby facilitating the determination of the degree of posture difference of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220.

[0039] S400: Send a loading adjustment signal to the transformer optical inspection system according to the transformer slip differential component to adjust the loading and visual inspection placement posture of the transformer.

[0040] In this embodiment, the transformer slip component is obtained based on the transformer placement state parameters and the preset placement state parameters. The transformer placement state parameters are sampled from the front-end placement image, which is the image of the transformer being placed before loading, i.e., the image of the transformer's placement posture before being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the front-end placement image, it is easy to determine the transformer's conveying posture before being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220, thereby facilitating the determination of the transformer's transmission placement status before visual inspection, and further facilitating the determination of the transformer's placement status before being transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the transformer posture features in the front-end placement image, the placement state of the transformer before being transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220 can be determined, facilitating the determination of the transformer's loading state. The preset placement state parameter is the standard placement image of the transformer before loading, that is, the preset placement state parameter is the reference placement image of the transformer before loading, and also the specified placement posture image of the transformer before being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. The placement reversal processing of the transformer placement state parameter and the preset placement state parameter facilitates the determination of the difference between the current loading posture and the standard posture of the transformer, thereby facilitating the determination of the degree of posture difference of the transformer before being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. After determining the transformer placement difference component, the degree of posture difference of the transformer before loading can be obtained, facilitating the determination of the difference between the transformer's loading posture and the standard loading posture. By sending a loading reversal signal to the transformer optical inspection system, the loading posture of the transformer is adjusted so that the transformer is placed in a posture matching the loading conveyor belt 220, thereby facilitating visual inspection of the transformer's surface defects, effectively improving the visual inspection efficiency of the transformer, and thus effectively improving the production efficiency of the transformer.

[0041] In the above embodiment, the current material placement of the transformer is collected by acquiring the transformer placement status parameters. Then, the transformer placement status parameters are compared with the preset placement status parameters to obtain the degree of difference in the material placement posture between the two. Finally, according to the difference in the material placement posture, a corresponding material reversal signal is sent to adjust the posture of the transformer placed on the material conveyor belt 220, so that the transformer is placed on the material conveyor belt 220 in the correct visual inspection posture, thereby facilitating the visual inspection of the transformer and effectively improving the production efficiency of the transformer.

[0042] In one embodiment, acquiring the front-end placement image of the transformer includes: acquiring a vertical image of the front-end pins of the transformer. In this embodiment, the front-end placement image is a loading and placement image of the transformer, that is, the front-end placement image is a placement image of the transformer before loading, or the placement posture image of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the front-end placement image, it is easy to determine the transmission posture of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220, thereby facilitating the determination of the transmission placement status of the transformer before visual inspection, and further facilitating the determination of the placement status of the transformer before it is transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220. The front-end placement image includes a vertical image of the front-end pins of the transformer, which is an image showing the vertical direction of the transformer pins, that is, the vertical image of the front-end pins of the transformer before it is transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220, and the vertical image of the front-end pins corresponds to the vertical position of the transformer pins before it is transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the vertical image of the front-end pins, it is convenient to acquire the pin placement and arrangement of the transformer at the front end of the feeding conveyor belt 220.

[0043] Further, obtaining the transformer placement status parameters based on the front-end placement image includes: obtaining the front-end pin sag based on the front-end pin vertical image. In this embodiment, the transformer placement status parameters are obtained by upsampling from the front-end placement image, which is the image of the transformer being placed before loading, i.e., the image of the transformer being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the front-end placement image, it is easy to determine the transmission posture of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220, thereby facilitating the determination of the transformer's transmission placement status before visual inspection, and further facilitating the determination of the transformer's placement status before it is transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the transformer posture features in the front-end placement image, the placement status of the transformer before it is transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220 can be determined, facilitating the determination of the transformer's loading status. The front-end placement image includes a vertical image of the transformer's front-end pins. This front-end pin vertical image is an image showing the vertical direction of the transformer's pins; specifically, it represents the vertical position of the transformer's pins before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. In other words, the front-end pin vertical image corresponds to the vertical position of the transformer's pins before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. Acquiring this front-end pin vertical image facilitates the assessment of the pin placement at the front end of the feeding conveyor belt 220. The shape of the pins in the front-end pin vertical image indicates the downward verticality of the transformer's pins, i.e., the sag of the front-end pins, which helps determine the degree of downward verticality of the transformer's pins before transfer.

[0044] Furthermore, the step of performing a rotational processing on the transformer placement state parameters and preset placement state parameters to obtain the transformer rotational difference component includes: calculating the difference between the front-end pin sag and the preset sag to obtain the transformer placement rotational sag. In this embodiment, the transformer placement state parameters are obtained by sampling from the front-end placement image, which is the image of the transformer being placed before loading, i.e., the image of the transformer being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the front-end placement image, it is easy to determine the transmission posture of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220, thereby facilitating the determination of the transformer's transmission placement status before visual inspection, and further facilitating the determination of the transformer's placement status before it is transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the transformer's posture features from the front-end placement image, the placement state of the transformer before it is conveyed onto the loading conveyor belt 220 can be determined, facilitating the determination of the transformer's loading state. The preset placement state parameter is the standard loading placement image of the transformer, that is, the preset placement state parameter is the reference placement image of the transformer before loading, or the specified placement posture image of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. The placement reversal processing of the transformer placement state parameter and the preset placement state parameter facilitates the determination of the difference between the transformer's current loading placement posture and the standard posture, thereby facilitating the determination of the degree of posture difference of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. The front-end placement image includes a vertical image of the transformer's front-end pins. This front-end pin vertical image is an image showing the vertical direction of the transformer's pins; specifically, it represents the vertical position of the transformer's pins before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. In other words, the front-end pin vertical image corresponds to the vertical position of the transformer's pins before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. Acquiring this front-end pin vertical image facilitates the assessment of the pin placement at the front end of the feeding conveyor belt 220. The shape of the pins in the front-end pin vertical image indicates the downward verticality of the transformer's pins, i.e., the sag of the front-end pins, which helps determine the degree of downward verticality of the transformer's pins before transfer. By calculating the difference between the sag of the front-end pin and the preset sag, the current downward verticality of the pin of the transformer before transfer can be determined. This facilitates the determination of the difference between the downward verticality of the pin of the transformer before transfer and the standard sag, thereby facilitating the determination of the verticality difference of the pin of the transformer before transfer.

[0045] Furthermore, the step of sending a loading adjustment signal to the transformer optical inspection system based on the transformer slip difference component to adjust the loading visual inspection placement posture of the transformer includes: detecting whether the transformer placement rotational sag matches a preset rotational sag; when the transformer placement rotational sag matches the preset rotational sag, sending a loading flip signal to the transformer optical inspection system to flip the transformer and place it on the loading conveyor belt 220. In this embodiment, the transformer slip difference component is obtained based on the transformer placement state parameters and the preset placement state parameters. The transformer placement state parameters are obtained by sampling from the front-end placement image, which is the loading placement image of the transformer, that is, the placement image of the transformer before loading, or the placement posture image of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the front-end placement image, it is easy to determine the transmission posture of the transformer before it is placed on the feeding conveyor belt 220, thereby facilitating the determination of the transformer's transmission placement before visual inspection, and further facilitating the determination of the transformer's placement before being transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the transformer's posture features in the front-end placement image, the placement state of the transformer before being transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220 can be determined, facilitating the determination of the transformer's feeding state. The preset placement state parameter is the standard feeding placement image of the transformer, that is, the preset placement state parameter is the reference placement image of the transformer before feeding, and also the specified placement posture image of the transformer before being placed on the feeding conveyor belt 220. The placement reversal processing of the transformer placement state parameter and the preset placement state parameter facilitates the determination of the difference between the transformer's current feeding placement posture and the standard posture, thereby facilitating the determination of the degree of posture difference of the transformer before being placed on the feeding conveyor belt 220. After determining the transformer slip component, the degree of posture difference of the transformer before loading can be obtained, which facilitates the determination of the difference between the loading posture of the transformer and the standard loading posture. By sending a loading adjustment signal to the transformer optical inspection system, the loading posture of the transformer is adjusted so that the transformer is placed in a posture that matches the loading conveyor belt 220, thereby facilitating visual inspection of the surface defects of the transformer, effectively improving the visual inspection efficiency of the transformer, and thus effectively improving the production efficiency of the transformer.The front-end placement image includes a vertical image of the transformer's front-end pins. This front-end pin vertical image is an image showing the vertical direction of the transformer's pins; specifically, it represents the vertical position of the transformer's pins before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. In other words, the front-end pin vertical image corresponds to the vertical position of the transformer's pins before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. Acquiring this front-end pin vertical image facilitates the assessment of the pin placement at the front end of the feeding conveyor belt 220. The shape of the pins in the front-end pin vertical image indicates the downward verticality of the transformer's pins, i.e., the sag of the front-end pins, which helps determine the degree of downward verticality of the transformer's pins before transfer. By calculating the difference between the sag of the front-end pin and the preset sag, the current downward verticality of the transformer pin before transfer is determined. This facilitates the determination of the difference between the downward verticality of the transformer pin before transfer and the standard sag, thereby facilitating the determination of the verticality difference of the transformer pin before transfer. The matching of the transformer placement rotation sag difference with the preset rotation sag difference indicates that the sag direction and angle of the transformer pin conform to the standard, meaning that the sag of the transformer pin before transfer to the feeding conveyor belt 220 is the same as the standard sag, and that the transformer pin is in the correct placement state. At this time, a loading and flipping signal is sent to the transformer optical inspection system to cause the transformer to flip and rest on the loading conveyor belt 220. Specifically, the loading rotating component 230 flips the transformer 180 degrees, changing the vertical direction of the transformer's pins. That is, the transformer's pins are flipped from being vertically facing down to being vertically facing up, making it easier to place the transformer's pins facing upwards. This avoids the transformer's pins coming into contact with the loading conveyor belt 220 and being damaged. Moreover, it also facilitates rapid visual inspection of the transformer, effectively improving the transformer's production efficiency.

[0046] Furthermore, the step of detecting whether the transformer placement rotational droop difference matches the preset rotational droop difference further includes: when the transformer placement rotational droop difference does not match the preset rotational droop difference, sending a loading and rotation signal to the transformer optical detection system to cause the transformer to be moved and rotated onto the loading conveyor belt 220. In this embodiment, the mismatch between the transformer placement rotational droop difference and the preset rotational droop difference indicates that the drooping direction and angle of the transformer pins do not conform to the standard, that is, it indicates that the degree of drooping of the transformer pins before being transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220 differs from the standard drooping degree, and that the transformer pins are in a non-vertical downward state, for example, vertical upward. At this time, a loading and rotation signal is sent to the transformer optical inspection system to cause the transformer to be moved and rotated to rest on the loading conveyor belt 220. Specifically, the loading rotating component 230 performs a loading and rotation operation on the transformer to rotate the transformer 180 degrees in parallel, so that the orientation of the transformer pins remains unchanged, that is, the orientation of the transformer pins is maintained, avoiding the situation where the transformer pins come into contact with the loading conveyor belt 220 and are damaged. Moreover, it can also facilitate rapid visual inspection of the transformer, effectively improving the production efficiency of the transformer.

[0047] In one embodiment, acquiring the front-end placement image of the transformer includes: acquiring an image of the number of pins hanging at the front end of the transformer. In this embodiment, the front-end placement image is an image of the transformer being placed before loading, that is, an image of the transformer's placement posture before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the front-end placement image, it is easy to determine the transformer's conveying posture before being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220, thereby facilitating the determination of the transformer's transmission placement before visual inspection, and further facilitating the determination of the transformer's placement posture before being transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220. The front-end placement image includes an image showing the vertical number of the transformer's front-end pins. This image represents the number of pins vertically arranged on the transformer before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. In other words, the front-end pin count image corresponds to the vertical number of pins on the transformer before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. Acquiring this front-end pin count image facilitates the acquisition of the pin arrangement at the front end of the transformer on the feeding conveyor belt 220.

[0048] Further, obtaining the transformer placement status parameters based on the front-end placement image includes: obtaining the front-end pin verticality number based on the front-end pin verticality image. In this embodiment, the transformer placement status parameters are obtained by upsampling from the front-end placement image, which is the image of the transformer being placed before loading, i.e., the image of the transformer being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the front-end placement image, it is easy to determine the transmission posture of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220, thereby facilitating the determination of the transformer's transmission placement status before visual inspection, and further facilitating the determination of the transformer's placement status before it is transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the transformer posture features in the front-end placement image, the placement status of the transformer before it is transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220 can be determined, facilitating the determination of the transformer's loading status. The front-end placement image includes an image showing the vertical number of the transformer's front-end pins. This image represents the number of pins vertically arranged on the transformer before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. In other words, the front-end pin count image corresponds to the vertical number of pins on the transformer before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. Acquiring this image facilitates the assessment of the pin arrangement at the front end of the transformer on the feeding conveyor belt 220. By analyzing the number of pins in the front-end pin count image, the distribution of the transformer's pins can be determined, i.e., the vertical count of the front-end pins, which helps in identifying the pin distribution of the transformer before transfer.

[0049] Furthermore, the step of performing a resting-rotation processing on the transformer resting state parameters and the preset resting state parameters to obtain the transformer resting-rotation difference component includes: calculating the difference between the vertical number of the front-end pins and the preset drooping number to obtain the transformer resting rotation pin number difference. In this embodiment, the transformer resting state parameters are obtained by upsampling from the front-end resting image, which is the image of the transformer being placed before loading, i.e., the image of the transformer being placed before being placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the front-end resting image, it is easy to determine the transmission posture of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220, thereby facilitating the determination of the transmission resting status of the transformer before visual inspection, and further facilitating the determination of the placement status of the transformer before it is transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the transformer's posture features from the front-end placement image, the placement state of the transformer before it is conveyed onto the loading conveyor belt 220 can be determined, facilitating the determination of the transformer's loading state. The preset placement state parameter is the standard loading placement image of the transformer, that is, the preset placement state parameter is the reference placement image of the transformer before loading, or the specified placement posture image of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. The placement reversal processing of the transformer placement state parameter and the preset placement state parameter facilitates the determination of the difference between the transformer's current loading placement posture and the standard posture, thereby facilitating the determination of the degree of posture difference of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. The front-end placement image includes an image showing the vertical number of the transformer's front-end pins. This image represents the number of pins vertically arranged on the transformer before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. In other words, the front-end pin count image corresponds to the vertical number of pins on the transformer before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. Acquiring this image facilitates the assessment of the pin arrangement at the front end of the transformer on the feeding conveyor belt 220. By analyzing the number of pins in the front-end pin count image, the distribution of the transformer's pins can be determined, i.e., the vertical count of the front-end pins, which helps in identifying the pin distribution of the transformer before transfer. By calculating the difference between the vertical number of the front-end pins and the preset drooping number, the current distribution of the pins of the transformer before transfer can be determined. This facilitates the determination of the difference between the pin distribution of the transformer before transfer and the standard distribution, thereby facilitating the determination of the difference in the number of pins distributed in the transformer before transfer.

[0050] Furthermore, the step of sending a loading adjustment signal to the transformer optical inspection system based on the transformer slip difference component to adjust the loading visual inspection placement posture of the transformer includes: detecting whether the transformer placement rotation needle count difference matches a preset rotation needle count difference; when the transformer placement rotation needle count difference matches the preset rotation needle count difference, sending a loading flip signal to the transformer optical inspection system to flip the transformer and place it on the loading conveyor belt 220. In this embodiment, the transformer slip difference component is obtained based on the transformer placement state parameters and the preset placement state parameters. The transformer placement state parameters are obtained by sampling from the front-end placement image, which is the loading placement image of the transformer, that is, the placement image of the transformer before loading, or the placement posture image of the transformer before it is placed on the loading conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the front-end placement image, it is easy to determine the transmission posture of the transformer before it is placed on the feeding conveyor belt 220, thereby facilitating the determination of the transformer's transmission placement before visual inspection, and further facilitating the determination of the transformer's placement before being transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. By acquiring the transformer's posture features in the front-end placement image, the placement state of the transformer before being transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220 can be determined, facilitating the determination of the transformer's feeding state. The preset placement state parameter is the standard feeding placement image of the transformer, that is, the preset placement state parameter is the reference placement image of the transformer before feeding, and also the specified placement posture image of the transformer before being placed on the feeding conveyor belt 220. The placement reversal processing of the transformer placement state parameter and the preset placement state parameter facilitates the determination of the difference between the transformer's current feeding placement posture and the standard posture, thereby facilitating the determination of the degree of posture difference of the transformer before being placed on the feeding conveyor belt 220. After determining the transformer slip component, the degree of posture difference of the transformer before loading can be obtained, which facilitates the determination of the difference between the loading posture of the transformer and the standard loading posture. By sending a loading adjustment signal to the transformer optical inspection system, the loading posture of the transformer is adjusted so that the transformer is placed in a posture that matches the loading conveyor belt 220, thereby facilitating visual inspection of the surface defects of the transformer, effectively improving the visual inspection efficiency of the transformer, and thus effectively improving the production efficiency of the transformer.The front-end placement image includes an image showing the vertical number of the transformer's front-end pins. This image represents the number of pins vertically arranged on the transformer before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. In other words, the front-end pin count image corresponds to the vertical number of pins on the transformer before it is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. Acquiring this image facilitates the assessment of the pin arrangement at the front end of the transformer on the feeding conveyor belt 220. By analyzing the number of pins in the front-end pin count image, the distribution of the transformer's pins can be determined, i.e., the vertical count of the front-end pins, which helps in identifying the pin distribution of the transformer before transfer. The difference between the vertical number of the front-end pins and the preset drooping number determines the current pin distribution of the transformer before transfer. This facilitates the determination of the difference between the pin distribution before transfer and the standard distribution, thereby facilitating the determination of the difference in the number of pins before transfer. The matching of the difference in the number of rotating pins on the transformer resting position with the preset difference in the number of rotating pins indicates that the number and direction of the transformer pins conform to the standard. This means that the pin distribution of the transformer before transfer to the feeding conveyor belt 220 is the same as the standard distribution, and that the transformer pins are in the correct resting position. At this time, a loading and flipping signal is sent to the transformer optical inspection system to cause the transformer to flip and rest on the loading conveyor belt 220. Specifically, the loading rotating component 230 flips the transformer 180 degrees, changing the orientation of the transformer's pins. That is, the pins of the transformer are flipped from their original downward distribution to an upward distribution, making it easier to place the transformer's pins upward and avoiding damage caused by contact between the transformer's pins and the loading conveyor belt 220. Moreover, it also facilitates rapid visual inspection of the transformer, effectively improving the transformer's production efficiency.

[0051] In another embodiment, when the difference in the number of rotating pins of the transformer resting does not match the preset difference in the number of rotating pins, a feeding and rotating signal is sent to the transformer optical detection system so that the transformer is moved and rotated to rest on the feeding conveyor belt 220.

[0052] During the actual material handling process of the transformer, i.e., the transfer from the production station to the inspection station, the loading conveyor belt 220 serves as the transport belt for the inspection station. After the transformer is transferred to the loading conveyor belt 220, the optical detectors at the inspection station visually inspect all sides of the transformer, especially requiring a comprehensive inspection of defects at the transformer's pins. However, as the transformer is transferred by the loading rotating component 230, its placement on the loading conveyor belt 220 is prone to shifting. The optical detectors on both sides of the loading conveyor belt 220 cannot completely capture a single side of the transformer, thus affecting the accuracy of the visual inspection.

[0053] To improve the accuracy of the transformer's orientation after transfer, the process of sending a loading adjustment signal to the transformer optical inspection system based on the transformer slip component to adjust the transformer's loading and visual inspection orientation further includes:

[0054] Obtain the pin spacing of the transformer;

[0055] Detect whether the spacing between the pins is less than a first preset spacing;

[0056] When the spacing between the pins is less than the first preset spacing, a flattening signal is sent to the transformer optical inspection system to flatten the pin surface of the transformer so that the pin surface of the transformer is parallel to the side of the feeding conveyor belt 220.

[0057] In this embodiment, the pin arrangement spacing is the pin spacing of the transformer on the feeding conveyor belt 220, that is, the pin arrangement spacing is the interval distance between each pin after the transformer is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220, or the distance between any two adjacent pins on the pin surface after the transformer is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt 220. Specifically, referring to Figure 3, the feeding assembly 200 also includes a ranging probe 240, which is located on the side of the feeding conveyor belt 220 and is used to face the pin surface of the transformer to collect the pin arrangement spacing of the transformer. The first preset spacing is the standard pin spacing of the transformer on the feeding conveyor belt 220, that is, the first preset spacing corresponds to the posture of the transformer after it is correctly placed on the feeding conveyor belt 220. The fact that the pin spacing is less than the first preset spacing indicates that the pin spacing of the transformer pin surface, as collected from the side of the feeding conveyor belt 220, is too small. This indicates that the transformer's placement posture on the feeding conveyor belt 220 is deviated, meaning that the transformer pin surface is not parallel to the side of the feeding conveyor belt 220. In this case, a flattening signal is sent to the transformer optical inspection system to flatten the transformer pin surface, making it parallel to the side of the feeding conveyor belt 220. This adjustment ensures that the transformer maintains the required placement posture for visual inspection on the feeding conveyor belt 220, thereby ensuring that the transformer pin surface is parallel to the side of the feeding conveyor belt 220 and improving the accuracy of the transformer's placement posture after transfer. The transformer has a rectangular structure, as shown in Figure 3. The feeding assembly 200 also includes a flattener 250, which is located on the same side of the feeding conveyor belt 220 as the ranging probe 240. The flattener 250 is used to flatten the pin surface of the transformer.

[0058] In another embodiment, there are two ranging probes and two leveling devices, with the two ranging probes arranged opposite each other and the two leveling devices also arranged opposite each other, in order to improve the parallelism between the transformer and the feeding conveyor belt.

[0059] Further, when the spacing between the pins is less than the first preset spacing, a flattening signal is sent to the transformer optical inspection system to flatten the pin surface of the transformer so that the pin surface of the transformer is parallel to the side of the feeding conveyor belt 220. This further includes:

[0060] Obtain the push-side spacing of the transformer;

[0061] Detect whether the push-edge spacing is greater than or equal to the second preset spacing;

[0062] When the push-edge spacing is greater than or equal to the second preset spacing, a negative suction signal is sent to the transformer optical detection system so that the pin surface of the transformer is attracted to the pusher 250.

[0063] In this embodiment, the pushing edge spacing is the distance between the transformer and the pusher 250, that is, the pushing edge spacing is the boundary distance of the transformer on the feeding conveyor belt 220, and also the boundary distance between the transformer and the side where the pusher 250 of the feeding conveyor belt 220 is located. The fact that the pushing distance is greater than or equal to the second preset distance indicates that the boundary distance between the transformer and the side where the pusher 250 of the feeding conveyor belt 220 is located is too large, that is, the transformer is too close to the other side of the feeding conveyor belt 220. At this time, starting the pusher to push the transformer flat will easily push the transformer off the feeding conveyor belt 220. By sending a negative suction signal to the transformer photodetector system, the pin surface of the transformer is attracted to the pusher 250. Specifically, please refer to Figure 3. The pusher 250 has a negative pressure suction hole 202. The opening of the negative pressure suction hole 202 faces the transformer to provide negative pressure suction force, so as to attract the transformer to the pusher 250, so that the pin surface of the transformer abuts against the pushing surface of the pusher 250, thereby making the transformer parallel to the side of the feeding conveyor belt 220 and preventing the transformer from falling off the feeding conveyor belt 220.

[0064] In another embodiment, when the push-edge spacing is less than the second preset spacing, a push-down signal is sent to the transformer optical detection system to reduce the pushing speed of the pusher and avoid pushing the transformer off due to excessive speed.

[0065] In another embodiment, the transformer optical inspection system includes the transformer feeding device described in the above embodiments.
