[0008] As a further improvement of the present invention, in order to effectively prevent the guide from accidentally slipping, ensure the stability and safety of the guide during transportation, and reduce the risks of equipment damage and inaccurate detection results caused by the slipping of the guide; an adjustable retaining edge is installed on the outside of the detection and sorting platform in a matching manner, and the adjustable retaining edge is used to prevent the guide from slipping during transportation.

[0009] As a further improvement of the present invention, in order to make the unqualified guide enter the unqualified product conveying platform more smoothly, reduce jamming or blockage; at the same time, the 90° direction change is convenient for the collection and transfer of unqualified products, avoids direct interference with the production line, and improves the overall efficiency of the production line; the upper end of the unqualified product conveying platform is arc-shaped, and the conveying direction of the unqualified product conveying platform is 90° to the conveying direction of the product conveying platform.

[0010] As a further improvement of the present invention, in order to increase the friction between the guide and the conveying platform, effectively prevent the guide from sliding, and ensure the stability and accuracy of the guide during transportation; an anti-slip layer is provided on the surface of the product conveying platform.

[0011] As a further improvement of the present invention, in order to continuously obtain the external arc data of the guide during the continuous transportation of the guide, without the guide stopping or being positioned multiple times, and improve the detection efficiency and accuracy; a non-contact laser scanning chuck is provided inside the external arc detection device, and the non-contact laser scanning chuck can rotate and the rotation direction is the same as the conveying direction of the product conveying platform.

[0012] One beneficial effect of the present invention is that through the integrated design, the automation of the continuous operation of the guide from feeding to detection and then to sorting is realized, greatly improving the production efficiency, reducing the manual intervention, and lowering the production cost; the optimized layout of the conveying mechanism simplifies the production process, and the reasonable setting and connection mode of the product conveying platform, the detection and sorting platform, and the non-conforming product conveying platform enhance the flexibility and accuracy of conveying. The cooperation of the blocking block and the pushing device ensures the precise positioning and transfer of the guide; the coordination of the cylinder devices and the pushing blocks at different positions in the pushing device realizes the rapid and accurate pushing of the guide, improving the automation and precise control capabilities of the equipment; in the detection and sorting mechanism, the product surface defect detection device with the cooperation of the slide rail and the slider can flexibly detect different models of guides, and the product external arc detection device can obtain data during continuous conveying, improving the detection accuracy and efficiency, and enhancing the versatility and adaptability of the equipment; the adjustable edge effectively prevents the guide from slipping, ensuring the stability and safety of the conveying process; the arc design and specific direction change of the non-conforming product conveying platform make the transfer of non-conforming guides smoother, avoiding interfering with the production line and realizing the effective diversion of products; the anti-slip layer on the product conveying platform increases the friction force, further ensuring the stability and accuracy of the guide conveying.

[0013] The present invention also provides a detection and sorting process for automotive guides, and the detection and sorting process includes the following steps:

[0014] Step 1: Check and ensure that the stable support is firmly installed, the electrical cabinet is normally powered, and the electrical connection ports are reliably connected to ensure that the equipment is in an operable state; start the equipment self-check program through the control buttons on the control box, observe the status information of each component of the equipment displayed on the display screen, and enter the next step after confirming that the equipment is normal;

[0015] Step 2: Place the guide to be detected at the starting end of the product conveying platform, and avoid the guide from sliding due to its own gravity or slight external force during the conveying process through the anti-slip layer;

[0016] Step 3: The product conveying platform starts and conveys the guide towards the detection and sorting platform at a set speed. During the conveying process, the non-contact laser scanning chuck in the product external arc detection device starts to rotate simultaneously, and the rotation direction is the same as the conveying direction of the product conveying platform to scan and detect the external arc of the guide; the scanned data is transmitted to the control box in real time for analysis and processing, and compared with the preset arc standard to determine whether the external arc of the guide is qualified;

[0017] Step 4: The product conveying platform continues to convey until the guide is intercepted and positioned by the blocking block. At this time, the first cylinder device, the second cylinder device, and the third cylinder device are ready to act according to the detection program. When the guide reaches the appropriate position, the third cylinder device drives the push block at its output end to push the guide from the product conveying platform to the detection and sorting platform below the product surface defect detection device.

[0018] Step 5: The product surface defect detection device slides downward on the slide rail through the slider, approaches the surface of the guide, and uses the detection technology inside it to detect the surface defects of the guide, such as scratches, cracks, sand holes, burrs, etc. The detection results are also transmitted to the control box for analysis and judgment of whether the surface of the guide is qualified.

[0019] Step 6: According to the detection results of the product external curvature detection device and the product surface defect detection device, if both detections of the guide are qualified, the second cylinder device drives its push block to push the qualified guide. The qualified guide can stay briefly on the detection and sorting platform, and the adjustable edge guard set at the edge effectively prevents the guide from slipping. Then, the qualified guide is pushed back onto the product conveying platform, and the product conveying platform continues to convey it to the next process.

[0020] Step 7: If any one of the two detections of the guide is unqualified, the second cylinder device drives its push block to push the unqualified guide to the corresponding position of the unqualified product conveying inlet. Then, the first cylinder device starts, and pulls the guide into the unqualified product conveying inlet through the push block. The unqualified guide slides into the unqualified product conveying platform with an arc-shaped upper end through the unqualified product conveying inlet and is conveyed to the designated unqualified product collection area for centralized processing. The conveying direction of the unqualified product conveying platform is set at 90° to the conveying direction of the product conveying platform, which is convenient for realizing the diversion of unqualified products.

[0021] Step 8: During the whole detection and sorting process, the control box continuously records various detection data of the guide, including external curvature data, surface defect conditions, detection time, action time of each component, etc. When a batch of guides are detected, the control box generates a detailed detection report based on the recorded data. The report can be stored, printed, or transmitted to other production management systems as needed, so as to trace and analyze the product quality, and at the same time provide data support for the improvement of the production process.

[0022] Another beneficial effect of the present invention lies in that: through rigorous and efficient step design, the detection and sorting process realizes precise detection and automatic sorting of the external arc and surface defects of the guide; in the process, a comprehensive self-check before the equipment starts ensures the stability and reliability of the detection process, and the application of the anti-slip layer effectively prevents the guide from sliding during transportation, improving the accuracy of detection; the continuous scanning detection of the non-contact laser scanning chuck not only improves the detection efficiency but also ensures the accuracy of the arc data; through the precise control of the cylinder device, the guide is stably pushed during the detection and sorting process, avoiding errors in manual operation; the flexible sliding design of the product surface defect detection device makes it more adaptable to different types of guides; the setting of the adjustable edge guard and the ingenious design of the unqualified product conveying platform not only ensure the stable output of qualified products but also realize the rapid diversion of unqualified products, improving the overall efficiency of the production line; in addition, the comprehensive recording and data analysis of the entire detection and sorting process by the control box provide strong data support for product quality traceability and production process improvement, significantly enhancing the intelligent level of production management.

[0023] When the present invention works, first, after checking that the stable support is installed firmly, the electrical cabinet is normally powered, and the electrical connection ports are reliably connected, the equipment self-check program is started through the control buttons on the control box, and it is confirmed that the equipment is normal according to the information displayed on the display screen; then, the guide is placed at the starting end of the product conveying platform, and the anti-slip layer can effectively prevent sliding. Subsequently, the product conveying platform conveys the guide to the detection and sorting platform at a set speed. During this period, the non-contact laser scanning chuck in the product external arc detection device rotates synchronously to detect the external arc of the guide, and the data is transmitted to the control box for comparison and judgment; then, the product conveying platform continues to convey until the guide is intercepted and positioned by the blocking block. At the same time, the first cylinder device, the second cylinder device, and the third cylinder device are ready to act. After the guide reaches the appropriate position, the third cylinder device drives the push block to push it to the detection and sorting platform below the product surface defect detection device. Then, the product surface defect detection device slides on the slide rail through the slider to approach the surface of the guide to detect defects, and the result is transmitted to the control box for analysis; if both detections of the guide are qualified, the second cylinder device drives the push block to push, and after being protected by the adjustable edge guard and staying briefly, it returns to the product conveying platform and is conveyed to the next process; if it is unqualified, the second cylinder device first pushes it to the position corresponding to the unqualified product conveying inlet, and then the first cylinder device starts the push block to pull it into the unqualified product conveying inlet. The unqualified guide is conveyed to the collection area through the unqualified product conveying platform at the upper end of the arc, and it is at a 90° angle to the product conveying platform for easy diversion; during the whole process, the control box continuously records various detection data of the guide. After a batch of detections is completed, a report is generated for storage, printing output, or transmission to other systems for quality traceability analysis and production process improvement.

At this time, the first cylinder device 14, the second cylinder device 15, and the third cylinder device 16 are ready to act according to the detection program; when the guide 1 reaches the appropriate position, the third cylinder device 16 drives the push block 17 at its output end to push the guide 1 from the product conveying platform 4 to the detection and sorting platform 20 below the product surface defect detection device 13;

[0037] Step 5: The product surface defect detection device 13 slides down along the slide rail 11 through the slider 12, approaches the surface of the guide 1, and uses the detection technology inside it to detect the surface of the guide 1 for defects such as scratches, cracks, sand holes, burrs, etc.; the detection results are also transmitted to the control box 8 for analysis and judgment of whether the surface of the guide 1 is qualified;

[0038] Step 6: According to the detection results of the product external arc detection device 10 and the product surface defect detection device 13, if both detections of the guide 1 are qualified, the second cylinder device 15 drives its push block 17 to push the qualified guide 1.

At this time, the first cylinder device (14), the second cylinder device (15) and the third cylinder device (16) are ready to act according to the detection program; when the guide (1) reaches the appropriate position, the third cylinder device (16) drives the push block (17) at its output end to push the guide (1) from the product conveying platform (4) to the detection and sorting platform (20) below the product surface defect detection device (13); Step 5: The product surface defect detection device (13) slides downward on the slide rail (11) through the slider (12) and approaches the surface of the guide (1), and uses its internal detection technology to detect defects on the surface of the guide (1), such as scratches, cracks, sand holes, burrs, etc.; the detection results are also transmitted to the control box (8) for analysis to determine whether the surface of the guide (1) is qualified; Step 6: Based on the test results of the product external curvature detection device (10) and the product surface defect detection device (13), if the guide (1) passes both tests, the second cylinder device (15) drives its push block (17) to push the qualified guide (1). The qualified guide (1) can stay on the detection and sorting platform (20) for a short time, and the adjustment edge (22) arranged at the edge effectively prevents the guide (1) from sliding off. After that, the qualified guide (1) is pushed back onto the product conveying platform (4), and the product conveying platform (4) continues to convey it to the next process. Step 7: If the guide (1) fails any of the two tests, the second cylinder device (15) drives its push block (17) to push the unqualified guide (1) to a position corresponding to the unqualified product delivery entrance (18), and then the first cylinder device (14) is started to pull the guide (1) into the unqualified product delivery entrance (18) through the push block (17); the unqualified guide (1) slides into the unqualified product delivery platform (5) with an arc-shaped upper end through the unqualified product delivery entrance (18), and is delivered to a designated unqualified product collection area for centralized processing; the delivery direction of the unqualified product delivery platform (5) is set at 90 degrees to the delivery direction of the product delivery platform (4), so as to facilitate the diversion of unqualified products; Step 8: During the entire inspection and sorting process, the control box (8) continuously records various inspection data of the guide (1), including external curvature data, surface defect conditions, inspection time, operation time of each component, and other information; when a batch of guides (1) are inspected, the control box (8) generates a detailed inspection report based on the recorded data. The report can be stored, printed out, or transmitted to other production management systems as needed, so as to trace and analyze product quality and provide data support for production process improvement.
