[0017] The technical solution of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0018] The embodiment of the present application discloses a sponge quality detection device and a detection method thereof.

[0019] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The quality inspection device of the sponge may include a test bench 10, a press 20, an adsorption assembly, a curtain wall assembly 40, an imaging assembly 50 and a fill light assembly 60. A test bench 10 is formed with a test bench 11 for placing the sponge block to be inspected, and a bottom cavity 12 is formed at the bottom of the test bench 10, and an adsorption assembly 30 is installed in the bottom cavity 12. The adsorption assembly 30 can be used to fix the sponge block on the test bench 11 by negative pressure adsorption, and then the press 20 installed on the top of the test bench 10 can press the sponge block on the test bench 11 to deform it. The curtain wall assembly 40 is arranged on one side of the test bench 10, and the imaging assembly 50 and the fill light assembly 60 are arranged on the other side opposite to the curtain wall assembly 40. The curtain wall assembly 40 has a background cloth 44 that can be rolled up or unfolded, and the background cloth 44 can form an imaging background of the sponge block on the test bench 11 after being unfolded, and the background cloth 44 can be a color with a large contrast with the color of the sponge block. The imaging component 50 is provided with a visual sensor 54 facing the sponge block on the test table 11, and the visual sensor 54 is used to image, capture and output an image of the elastic recovery state of the sponge block. The fill light component 60 is arranged at a position close to the imaging component 50, and the fill light component 60 is provided with a fill light 61 whose position state can be adjusted. The fill light 61 is used to adjust the lighting state when the sponge block on the test table 11 is imaged, so that the imaging effect of the visual sensor 54 is better.

[0020] In this embodiment, the press 20 can use existing equipment in the prior art, and when the press 20 applies pressure, a constant squeezing force is applied to the sponge sample at a certain speed until the sponge reaches a predetermined compression amount, such as 50% or 75% of the original height. Sponge, as a porous material, has good elasticity and compressibility. When the sponge is squeezed by an external force, the pores inside it will be compressed, resulting in a change in shape. The recovery ability of the sponge mainly comes from its internal pore structure and material properties. By recording the time from the sponge being squeezed and deformed to completely recovering to its original state, the quality of its elastic recovery performance can be intuitively evaluated. If the sponge can recover to its original shape and size in a relatively short time, it means that its elastic recovery performance is good; conversely, if the recovery time is longer, it means that its elastic recovery performance is poor. In addition to the elastic recovery performance, this test process can also be used to evaluate the shape memory performance of the sponge. Shape memory performance refers to the ability of the material to maintain a certain shape memory effect after being subjected to an external force, that is, the material can recover to its original shape after the external force is removed. For sponges, if they can quickly and accurately return to their original shape after being squeezed, then they can be considered to have good shape memory properties. In the fields of furniture, mattresses, cushions, etc., sponges are the main filling materials, and their elastic recovery and shape memory properties will directly affect the comfort and service life of the product. If the elastic recovery of the sponge is poor, then after long-term use, its shape may change, causing the product to lose its original comfort and support.

[0027] The quality inspection method of the sponge comprises the following steps: Step 1: Place the sponge block to be tested on the test table 11, use the adsorption component 30 to absorb the sponge block on the test table 11 with negative pressure or use a clamp to clamp the sponge block on the test table 11, and fix the position of the sponge block on the test table 11.

[0028] Step 2: unfold the background cloth 44 in the curtain wall assembly 40 , and use the magnetic attraction between the magnetic block 45 and the slot 47 to flatten and fix the background cloth 44 .

[0029] Step 3, start the press 20, and use the press 20 to apply a constant squeezing force to the sponge sample at a certain speed until the sponge block reaches a predetermined compression amount, and record the time points of the start and end of the squeezing, as well as the height of the compressed sponge block.

[0030] Step 4, after the press 20 is reset, the visual sensor 54 in the imaging assembly 50 is used to capture the recovery of the sponge block, and the elastic recovery performance of the sponge block is evaluated in combination with the recovery time and recovery height of the sponge block. The visual sensor 54 can capture the recovery of the sponge block in the following two ways: Imaging method 1, imaging capture of the sponge block recovering to the initial height or close to the initial height, recording the time required for the sponge block to recover to the initial height or close to the initial height, and obtaining the basic coefficient of the recovery time; Imaging method 2, presetting an initial time period of a fixed length, and capturing the height state of the sponge block recovery after the initial time period. In the process of the visual sensor 54 imaging and capturing the recovery of the sponge block, the imaging method 2 is used for each sponge block passing through the test table 11 to capture and output the sponge block image to shorten the detection time. And the imaging method 1 is used to capture and output the sponge block image periodically for the sponge block passing through the test table 11 to correct the estimation of the elastic recovery ability of the sponge block.

[0031] In this embodiment, the sponge block images output by the visual sensor 54 in both imaging mode 1 and imaging mode 2 need to be preprocessed by a computer system so that the computer system can obtain the sponge block features in the sponge block images. For example, the following calculation process can be performed when the sponge block images are preprocessed: in, is the pixel value of the image after filtering; is the original image pixel value; For The neighborhood window centered at ; For Window The total number of pixels in ; This formula is used to remove noise from an image by calculating the average value of the pixel values ​​within the neighborhood window to replace the central pixel value.

[0032] ; in, is the gray value after equalization; is the original gray value; Grayscale The number of pixels; is the total number of pixels in the image; This formula is used to enhance the contrast of an image by redistributing the grayscale values ​​so that the pixel values ​​in the image are more evenly distributed.

[0033] After image preprocessing of the sponge block image, a grayscale image of the sponge block image can be obtained. According to the difference in grayscale values ​​between the sponge block part and the image background part, the size of the image area occupied by the sponge block can be counted, thereby measuring the area and height of the sponge block.

[0034] After processing the image of the sponge block and measuring the area and height of the sponge block, the overall recovery time of the sponge can be estimated using a computer system. The estimated calculation process is as follows: in, is the estimated overall recovery time; The recovery time basic coefficient represents the reference value of the time required for the sponge to fully recover from deformation under standard conditions. It can be obtained based on the time required by imaging method 1 or by fitting experimental data in advance. The consistency of experimental conditions needs to be ensured. is the initial recovery rate, which indicates the proportion of sponge recovery in the initial time period. It can be calculated by analyzing the sponge block image obtained by imaging mode 2 or imaging mode 2, comparing the deformed image with the restored image, and calculating the recovery proportion; is the nonlinear factor of the recovery rate, which is used to indicate the nonlinear degree of the recovery rate changing with time. It can be obtained by fitting experimental data in combination with nonlinear regression. For example, it can be described by the following nonlinear function: ,in, For in time The recovery rate (i.e. the proportion of recovery) when is the final recovery rate, that is, the maximum proportion to which the sponge block can recover when time tends to infinity (theoretically it should be 1, but in practice it may deviate slightly due to material properties or measurement errors), is the effective recovery time constant, which indicates the time required for the sponge block to recover to a certain proportion. is the parameter we hope to obtain through nonlinear regression fitting. For recovery time; is the recovery rate, which indicates the proportion of sponge recovery per unit time and can be measured through experimental data; It is the recovery rate adjustment factor, which is used to represent the impact of external environmental conditions on the recovery rate. It can also be obtained by recording the recovery rate data under different environmental conditions (temperature, humidity), and then fitting these data using a nonlinear regression method. In an ideal state, it can also be set to 1; It is the recovery time-recovery rate relationship index, which is used to express the nonlinear relationship between recovery time and recovery rate. It can be obtained by combining the following calculation formula with experimental data: ,in, For in time The recovery rate, is the initial recovery rate, i.e., at time The recovery rate, is the characteristic time constant, which indicates the time required for the recovery rate to drop to a certain ratio; is the initial recovery time, i.e., the time period corresponding to the measurement of the initial recovery rate; The additional recovery time is used to indicate the time that the sponge continues to slowly recover after the initial recovery stage. The recovery degree of the sponge block at different time points can be recorded according to the preliminary experiment, and then the recovery degree of the sponge block in the second imaging method is compared with the recovery degree of the sponge block at different time points recorded in the preliminary experiment to obtain the corresponding remaining recovery time.
