The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0049] In the description of the present invention, if there is a description of first, second, etc., it is only for the purpose of distinguishing technical features, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the sequence of the indicated technical features.

[0050] The embodiment of the present invention provides a visual inspection system, referring to Figure 1 The visual inspection system of the embodiment of the present invention includes a first image acquisition device 120, a conveying device 110, a workpiece sensing device 130 and a control device (not shown in the figure). The first image acquisition device, the conveying device and the workpiece sensing device are all connected to the control device. The first image acquisition device is arranged above the conveying device. The first image acquisition device includes a plurality of posture-adjustable cameras. The workpiece sensing device is arranged at the workpiece entrance side of the first image acquisition device.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first image acquisition device can be placed on the conveying device in the form of a gantry. Multiple cameras and multiple lighting panels are arranged on the top and side of the inner side of the first image acquisition device. The angles and postures of the multiple cameras are adjusted by a pan-tilt platform, which can be adjusted and controlled by a computer program. The camera can use an electric zoom lens. Compared with traditional lenses, it can be used normally without any debugging after replacing the detection head. There is no tedious work of adjusting the focal length and aperture of the lens for traditional lenses, ensuring the stability of the workstation operation; multiple angle-adjustable lighting panels are used to provide a uniform shooting light source. The conveying device is provided with an encoder, which can be installed at the position of the conveying drive motor, and can convert the transmitted linear displacement into a periodic electrical signal, and then convert this electrical signal into a counting pulse, and the number of pulses is used to represent the size of the displacement.

[0052] In this embodiment, the workpiece sensing device may be an infrared sensor, which is composed of an infrared transmitter, an infrared receiver and a processor. Figure 1As shown, the infrared transmitter and the infrared receiver are respectively arranged on both sides of the workpiece entrance side of the first image acquisition device. In the absence of shielding, the infrared receiver always receives the infrared rays emitted by the infrared transmitter. At this time, the processor does not generate a sensing signal. When the workpiece passes through the infrared sensor in the direction shown in the figure, the infrared rays are blocked and the infrared receiver cannot receive the infrared rays. At this time, the processor generates a sensing signal. It can be understood that the workpiece sensor can also be other types of position sensors that can sense the position of the workpiece.

[0053] Reference Figure 2 , the control device is used to perform the following steps:

[0054] Step S201, obtaining a code trigger value, a code lock value and a camera control program according to the current workpiece type;

[0055] Step S202, monitoring the sensing signal from the workpiece sensing device through the signal receiving port;

[0056] Step S203, when the sensing signal is received, the signal receiving port is locked, and the encoder of the transmission device is reset to zero and counted again;

[0057] Step S204, when the encoder count reaches the encoding trigger value, the first image acquisition device is controlled to acquire a workpiece image for detection according to the camera control program;

[0058] Step S205: when the encoder count reaches the encoder lock value, the signal receiving port is unlocked.

[0059] In this embodiment, the port of the control device receiving the sensing signal from the workpiece sensor device is the signal receiving port, and the control device can configure the signal receiving port to be locked or unlocked. When the signal receiving port is locked, the control device does not monitor the sensing signal of the workpiece sensor device.

[0060] In this embodiment, when the workpiece passes through the workpiece sensing device, the workpiece sensing device generates a sensing signal. After the control device detects the sensing signal, it resets the encoder value to zero and recounts, and locks the signal receiving port at the same time to avoid multiple triggering of the same workpiece in the future. When the encoder counts to the preset encoding trigger value, it indicates that the workpiece has been transported to a position that meets the shooting of the first image acquisition device. Then, the first image acquisition device is controlled to capture a workpiece image with a suitable viewing angle according to the camera control program to perform visual inspection of the workpiece. When the encoder counts to the preset encoding lock value, it indicates that the current workpiece has completely passed through the workpiece sensing device, and the signal receiving end can be unlocked to monitor the next workpiece entering the first image acquisition device. It can be understood that the camera control program in this embodiment is used to control multiple cameras in the first image acquisition device to shoot at preset time intervals and points (or angles).

[0061] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the coding trigger value is pre-stored in the control device, and the coding trigger value is determined by the following steps:

[0062] Step S301, starting from receiving the sensing signal from the workpiece sensing device, controlling the first image acquisition device to shoot according to the initial point position of the camera control program at every encoder value to obtain multiple first pictures;

[0063] Step S302 , displaying a plurality of first pictures to select a first picture that meets the requirements, and using the encoder value corresponding to the selected first picture as the encoding trigger value.

[0064] In this embodiment, during the actual visual inspection process, the workpiece moves with the conveyor, and it is necessary to configure corresponding shooting angles and shooting times for different types of workpieces to obtain workpiece images with the best shooting angle. After starting the camera control program, the camera can start shooting according to the initial point position of the camera control program, thereby automatically controlling the shooting angle and shooting time, and the timing of starting the camera control program can be determined by whether the encoder value reaches the encoding trigger value, and the preset encoding trigger value can be determined by the following method:

[0065] Starting from receiving the sensing signal from the workpiece sensing device, the first image acquisition device is controlled to shoot at the initial point of the camera control program at every encoder value to obtain multiple workpiece images with the same camera angle but different workpiece positions, namely, the first images. Multiple first images are displayed on the terminal so that the staff can select the image with the best viewing angle at the initial point from the multiple first images, and use the encoder value corresponding to the selected first image as the encoding trigger value, and then store the encoding trigger value in association with the workpiece type in the control device.

[0066] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the code lock value is pre-stored in the control device, and the code lock value is determined by the following steps:

[0067] Step S401, converting the encoder value into a unit distance according to the running speed of the conveying device;

[0068] Step S402, obtaining the workpiece length of the corresponding workpiece type;

[0069] Step S403, determining the encoding locking value according to the workpiece length and the unit distance.

[0070] In this embodiment, the workpiece sensor device is installed at a certain height. The principle is that when a workpiece blocks the sensor's radiation, it will send a signal to the system. Due to the irregular shape of the workpiece and the height fluctuations of the workpiece, the workpiece is triggered multiple times, causing the system to mistakenly identify that multiple different workpieces have entered, resulting in an abnormality. In this embodiment, the encoder value at the scene is converted into a unit distance in millimeters according to the transmission speed, and then the workpiece length is divided by the unit distance to obtain the encoding lock value. In the actual visual inspection process, the code can be counted from 0 when the workpiece is sensed. During the period of the encoding lock value, the infrared sensor signal is no longer received, forming a signal interlock.

[0071] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the visual inspection system further includes a second image acquisition device and a robotic arm, the first image acquisition device, the conveying device and the workpiece sensing device are all arranged on the first station, and the second image acquisition device is arranged on the second station. The second image acquisition device is used to acquire an image of the upper surface of the workpiece, the first image acquisition device is used to acquire an image of the side surface of the workpiece, the robotic arm is arranged between the first station and the second station, and the robotic arm is used to transport the workpiece on the second station to the first station.

[0072] After the workpiece enters the second station, the second image acquisition device above the second station captures the image of the upper surface of the workpiece. After the capture is completed, the robot arm grabs the workpiece on the second station and places it on the conveying device of the first station. The workpiece is transported by the conveying device, passes through the workpiece sensing device, and enters the first image acquisition device. The camera in the first image acquisition device captures the side image of the workpiece. Through the cooperation of the first image acquisition device and the second image acquisition device, the image acquisition work of each surface of the workpiece can be completed efficiently.

[0073] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the control device of the embodiment of the present application is also used for:

[0074] Step S501, acquiring an image of the upper surface of the workpiece by a second image acquisition device;

[0075] Step S502, determining the type of the workpiece according to the upper surface image of the workpiece.

[0076] In this embodiment, when visual inspection control is performed at the first workstation, it is necessary to first obtain the corresponding coding trigger value, coding lock value and camera control program according to the type of workpiece currently on the first workstation, and the workpiece type can be obtained by classifying and identifying the upper surface image captured by the second image acquisition device using an image classification model based on a convolutional neural network.

[0077] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the control device verifies the camera control program through the following steps:

[0078] Step S601, controlling the first image acquisition device to acquire images of the calibration workpiece according to the camera control program to obtain a plurality of second images, wherein the joint inflection points of the calibration workpiece are provided with labels;

[0079] Step S602, performing label recognition on the plurality of second images respectively to obtain label recognition results;

[0080] Step S603, verifying the camera control program according to the tag recognition result, and when each tag in the tag recognition result is complete, the camera control program passes the verification.

[0081] In this embodiment, the station personnel configure each camera in the first image acquisition device at multiple points according to the workpiece shooting requirements, and form a camera control program according to the data of each point of each configured camera. After the camera control program is generated, the camera control program needs to be verified to ensure that the full coverage of each workpiece can be achieved through the control of the camera control program. When verifying the camera control program, a label (such as a QR code) can be pasted at the joint inflection point of the corresponding type of workpiece, and then the workpiece is used as a calibration workpiece. After the calibration workpiece is sent into the conveying device, the first image acquisition device is controlled to perform image acquisition on the calibration workpiece according to the camera control program to obtain multiple second pictures of each camera at each point. The labels in the multiple second pictures are extracted by image processing technology to obtain label recognition results. When the label recognition results contain all the labels on the calibration workpiece, and each label is complete, the camera control program passes the verification. Otherwise, the camera control program fails the verification and the camera control program needs to be readjusted.

[0082] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the control device verifies the mechanical state of the camera in the visual inspection system through the following steps:

[0083] Step S701, adjusting the camera posture according to the self-checking point, and controlling the camera to shoot the calibration plate to obtain a calibration picture;

[0084] Step S702, determining calibration point search data according to the calibration image;

[0085] Step S703, comparing the calibration point data with the template data. When the calibration point data and the template data are identical, the mechanical state of the camera passes the verification.

[0086] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 3 , the process of the visual inspection system self-checking the camera is as follows:

[0087] It is determined by the IO signal whether the system self-check instruction is set. If the system self-check instruction is not set, the normal visual inspection process is entered; if the system self-check instruction is set, the visual system adjusts the camera posture according to the self-check point, and controls the camera to shoot the calibration plate to obtain a calibration picture; for example, refer to Figure 4 , the calibration plate consists of five reference dots, and the dot area is inversely colored to the background color; four of the five reference dots are located at the four corners of the center of the calibration plate, and the fifth reference point is located next to the lower reference dot; the lowest reference point in the center of the calibration plate is set as the coordinate origin; the direction of the coordinate origin pointing to the adjacent reference point is set as the X direction; the direction of the coordinate origin pointing to the uppermost reference point is set as the Y direction;

[0088] Determine the calibration point search data according to the calibration image, and compare the calibration point data with the template data;

[0089] When the calibration point data and the template data are different, it can be determined that the camera has mechanical abnormalities such as being loose or moving. Among them, the calibration point data and the template data can be used to first determine whether the shooting angle is offset. If the shooting angle offset indicates that the camera is loose, a pop-up alarm will be issued. If the shooting angle is not offset, indicating that the camera is not loose, further determine whether the camera is shifted. If the camera is shifted, translate the search box of all detection points.

The control method for a visual inspection system in the embodiment of the present invention is the same as the method performed by the above control device, and is specifically as follows:

[0093] When receiving the induction signal, the signal receiving port is locked, and the encoder of the transmission device is reset to zero and counted again;

[0094] When the encoder count reaches the encoding trigger value, the first image acquisition device is controlled to acquire a workpiece image for detection according to the camera control program;
