DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The present invention provides an online screw size detection system, comprising two parallel supporting side plates 120, wherein an air nozzle 129 is fixedly installed on the top of one of the supporting side plates 120, and a third detection piece support frame 123 is also fixedly installed between the two supporting side plates 120, and a third detection piece 126 is slidably installed on the third detection piece support frame 123 through two parallel third detection piece support rods 124, which is used to detect the length of the screw; a frame 101, a permanent magnet frame 132 and a support block 133 are also fixedly installed between the two supporting side plates 120, wherein the permanent magnet frame 132 and the support block 133 are fixedly installed between them. The outer rotating sleeve of the permanent magnet frame 132 and the support block 133 is provided with a conveyor belt 134, and a plurality of baffles are equidistantly arranged on the surface of the conveyor belt 134 for moving the screw; two symmetrically arranged first detection sheet support plates 102 are fixedly installed on the frame 101, and a first detection sheet 105 is slidably installed on the first detection sheet support plate 102 through two parallel first detection sheet support rods 103 for detecting the diameter of the screw; a second detection sheet support frame 108 is fixedly installed on the frame 101, and a second detection sheet 117 for detecting the thickness of the screw nut is arranged on the second detection sheet support frame 108. The air nozzle 129 is supplied with gas by the air pump 130, and a slot is provided on a supporting side plate 120 without the air nozzle 129, and a windshield plate 121 is fixedly installed on the slot to block the airflow ejected by the air nozzle 129 and prevent the airflow from blowing onto the pressure plate 131. A third return spring 125 is disposed around each third detection piece support rod 124, and the two ends of the third return spring 125 are fixed to the third detection piece support frame 123 and the third detection piece 126; a first return spring 104 is disposed around each first detection piece support rod 103, and the two ends of the first return spring 104 are fixed to the first detection piece 105 and the first detection piece support plate 102. A second detection piece adjustment bracket 112 is slidably mounted on the second detection piece support frame 108 through two parallel second detection piece support rods 109, and a second detection piece 117 is slidably mounted on the second detection piece adjustment bracket 112 through a second detection piece adjustment slide bar 111 and a second detection piece adjustment screw rod 114, wherein a second detection piece adjustment wheel 115 is threadedly sleeved on the second detection piece adjustment screw rod 114, and the second detection piece adjustment wheel 115 is rotationally matched with the second detection piece adjustment bracket 112. A second reset spring 110 is arranged around each second detection piece support rod 109, and both ends of the second reset spring 110 are fixed to the second detection piece adjustment bracket 112 and the second detection piece support bracket 108; a second grating reading head bracket 116 is slidably installed on the second detection piece adjustment bracket 112 through a slide rail 113, a second grating reading head 118 is fixedly installed on the second grating reading head bracket 116, a second scale grating 119 matched with the second grating reading head 118 is fixedly installed on the second detection piece 117, and the second grating reading head bracket 116 is slidably matched with the second detection piece support bracket 108.The first detection sheet 105 is fixedly mounted with a first scale grating 106, and the first detection sheet support plate 102 is fixedly mounted with a first grating reading head 107 matched with the first scale grating 106; the third detection sheet 126 is fixedly mounted with a third grating reading head 127, and the supporting side plate 120 of the fixed air nozzle 129 is fixedly mounted with a third scale grating 128 matched with the third grating reading head 127. A sunken groove 122 is provided on the permanent magnet frame 132 at the position of the air nozzle 129, and a pressure plate 131 is movably connected to one end of the inner wall of the sunken groove 122, and a force-sensitive resistor bracket 136 is fixedly mounted on the side of the permanent magnet frame 132, and the force-sensitive resistor bracket 136 is in contact with the pressure plate 131, and a force-sensitive resistor 135 is overlapped on the contact surface.

[0021] The working principle of an online screw size detection system disclosed in the present invention is as follows: the screws are placed on a conveyor belt 134 in sequence and equidistantly, so that when the strip contacts the nut of the screw, the screw will be adsorbed on the surface of the conveyor belt 134 under the magnetic force of the permanent magnet frame 132, and then as the conveyor belt 134 rotates, the screws move downward in sequence, first the screw moves to the position of the third detection piece 126, the end point of the screw stud will squeeze the third detection piece 126, so that the third reset spring 125 is compressed, and at the same time, a relative displacement occurs between the third grating reading head 127 and the third scale grating 128, and then the displacement of the third detection piece 126 is detected, and the length of the screw can be known by the displacement of the third detection piece 126.

[0022] When the screw moves to the position of the air nozzle 129, the air pump 130 is started to blow air into the air nozzle 129, causing the air nozzle 129 to eject airflow, which blows toward the stud part of the screw. Since the resistance of the threaded screw and the screw without thread to the flowing air is different, the force conditions of the screw are also different, so the pressure of the nut of the screw on the pressure plate 131 is different. When the screw is subjected to a large force from the airflow, the pressure detected by the force-sensitive resistor 135 will increase. By detecting the change in the resistance value of the force-sensitive resistor 135 itself, the specific condition of the thread on the screw can be known (the flow rate of the airflow needs to be kept constant).

[0023] When the screw moves to the position of the second detection piece 117, the nut will move against the second detection piece 117, causing the second detection piece 117 to be displaced. The displacement is along the axial direction of the screw. At this time, the second reset spring 110 is compressed, and the second scale grating 119 is displaced relative to the second grating reading head 118, thereby detecting the displacement of the second detection piece 117 and then knowing the thickness of the screw nut. At the same time, according to the specific diameter of the screw, the second detection piece adjustment wheel 115 can be rotated. The rotation of the second detection piece adjustment wheel 115 drives the second detection piece adjustment screw 114 to move axially, thereby adjusting the position of the second detection piece 117. Since the second grating reading head bracket 116 is slidably installed on the slide rail 113, it will also drive the second grating reading head 118 to move together, ensuring that the relative position of the second grating reading head 118 and the second scale grating 119 remains unchanged.

[0024] When the screw moves to the position of the two first detection pieces 105, the stud part of the screw will squeeze the two first detection pieces 105, so that the two first detection pieces 105 are separated from each other, and the corresponding first reset spring 104 is compressed, and a relative displacement occurs between the first scale grating 106 and the first grating reading head 107, so that the displacement of the two first detection pieces 105 can be detected. By adding the displacement of the two first detection pieces 105, the diameter of the screw stud can be known. This is because the position of the screw on the conveyor belt 134 cannot guarantee accuracy. By superimposing the values ​​of the two first detection pieces 105, the diameter of the screw stud can be measured regardless of how the screw is placed.

[0025] The screw continues to move downward, so that the screw is separated from the conveyor belt 134. When the screw moves to the support block 133, it will no longer be constrained by the magnetic force of the conveyor belt 134, and thus fall under the action of gravity.
