The height adjustment device of this embodiment adopts a transmission mechanism of the guide rail 20, the cross beam 21 and the screw rod 22, and drives the driving gear 24 through the motor 23 to drive the driven gear 25 fixedly connected to the screw rod 22 to rotate, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering of the bearing device. The guide rail 20 and the screw rod 22 are arranged in parallel to ensure the smoothness of movement. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, in addition to gear transmission, the present embodiment may also adopt other transmission modes such as chain transmission, belt transmission, etc., which may be selected according to the actual installation environment and load requirements.

[0045] In one embodiment, the horizontal adjustment device includes a control member and a plurality of wheels 26 installed at the bottom of the base 1. Specifically, the control member is connected to the wheel 26 to control the wheel 26 to move in the horizontal direction; the control member is connected to the visual recognition unit; and the horizontal direction is perpendicular to the vertical direction. In this embodiment, the control member controls the steering and driving of the wheel 26 to achieve precise movement in the horizontal direction. It is known to those skilled in the art that the number and arrangement of the wheels 26 can be adjusted according to actual needs, and omnidirectional wheels can be used to improve flexibility, or differential drive can be used to achieve steering control.

[0046] In this embodiment, the carrying device includes a platform 30 and a bracket 31. Specifically, the platform 30 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 22 of the height adjustment device and is slidably connected to the guide rail 20 of the height adjustment device; the bracket 31 is installed at one end of the platform 30 and close to the installation target, and is used to carry the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 to be installed; the pressing device is installed on the platform 30; the bracket 31 is located between the pressing device and the installation target.

[0047] In this embodiment, the press-fitting device includes a driving member 40, a pressing head 41 and a power pump 42. More specifically, the fixed end of the driving member 40 is installed on the bearing device, and the movable end is connected to the pressing head 41; the pressing head 41 and the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 are in the same horizontal plane, and under the drive of the driving member 40, the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 located on the bearing device can be pressed into the installation target; the power pump 42 connects the driving member 40 and the visual recognition unit.

[0048] In this embodiment, the visual recognition unit includes an image acquisition device 50 and an image processing unit. Specifically, the image acquisition device 50 is installed on the carrying device, and is used to acquire image data of the installation target; the image processing unit is connected to the image acquisition device 50, and is used to analyze the image data and determine the position of the installation target. The camera of this embodiment is installed on the carrying device, and can adopt a monocular or binocular structure to acquire image information of the installation target. The image processing unit analyzes the image through a feature recognition algorithm to determine the spatial coordinates of the installation position. It is known to those skilled in the art that cameras with different resolutions and field of view angles can be selected according to the actual application scenario, and advanced algorithms such as deep learning can also be used to improve recognition accuracy.

[0049] Furthermore, it also includes a control box 6. Specifically, the control box 6 is connected to the visual recognition unit, the position adjustment device and the press-fitting device.

[0050] In this embodiment, the control box 6 realizes the coordinated control. During the installation process, the visual recognition unit first obtains the installation target position information, and the control box 6 drives the position adjustment device to move the bearing device to a suitable position according to the information. After the position is confirmed, the press-fit device presses the membrane element into the installation target under the drive of the power pump 42. The whole process has a high degree of automation, which greatly improves the installation efficiency and accuracy.

[0051] The installation target is, for example, a membrane shell 8. This device solves the problems of inaccurate positioning and improper control of the pressing force in traditional manual installation by combining visual recognition and automatic control. The multi-degree-of-freedom position adjustment mechanism is used to ensure the coaxiality of the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 and the membrane shell 8, thereby improving the sealing performance. The automatic control of the force during the pressing process effectively avoids damage to the reverse osmosis membrane element 7.

[0052] In addition, if Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment also proposes a method for quickly installing a reverse osmosis membrane assembly, using the reverse osmosis membrane assembly quick installation device as described above, specifically comprising the following steps:

[0053] S1. Identify the installation target and provide location information;

[0054] S2. adjusting the carrying device to a predetermined installation position according to the position information; and

[0055] S3, pressing the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 on the supporting device into the installation target.

[0056] In step S1, the identification of the installation target and the provision of location information specifically include: collecting image data of the installation target through a visual recognition unit, and extracting specific features of the installation target from the image data; identifying and locating the specific features through a feature recognition algorithm; and the control box 6 operates according to the positioning control position adjustment device to adjust the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 to a predetermined installation position.

[0057] In this embodiment, for example, the image acquisition device 50 is a camera (ie, a high-precision camera), the installation target is the membrane shell 8, and the driving member 40 is a hydraulic cylinder.

[0058] Initial positioning stage: When the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 needs to be installed, the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 is first placed on the bracket 31. The high-precision camera collects the position image of the membrane shell 8, and the image processing unit obtains the spatial position information of the membrane shell center tube 9 (installed at the specified position in the initial state) through the feature recognition algorithm. At the same time, the camera also collects the position information of the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 on the bracket 31, and calculates the position deviation between the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 and the target membrane shell 8.

[0059] Position adjustment process: The control box 6 coordinates and controls the adjustment in both horizontal and height directions according to the obtained position deviation information.

[0060] Specifically, horizontal adjustment: the wheels 26 of the control base 1 can be controlled to achieve precise translation and steering through differential rotation, so that the central axis of the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 is aligned with the central tube 9 of the membrane shell on the horizontal plane.

[0061] Height adjustment: The motor 23 drives the driving gear 24 to rotate, and drives the screw 22 to rotate through the meshing with the driven gear 25. Since the platform 30 is threadedly connected to the screw 22 and is limited by the guide rail 20, the rotation of the screw 22 is converted into the lifting movement of the platform 30, so as to realize the precise positioning of the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 in the vertical direction.

[0062] Pressing process: After the position adjustment is completed, the device enters the pressing stage. First, the power pump 42 station provides pressure to the hydraulic cylinder to drive the pressing head 41 to move forward. After the pressing head 41 contacts the reverse osmosis membrane element 7, under the precise control of the hydraulic system, the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 is evenly pushed into the membrane shell 8 with a constant pressure. The device ensures that the force of the entire pressing process is moderate through pressure feedback, which not only ensures that the installation is in place, but also avoids damage to the reverse osmosis membrane element 7.

[0063] Installation verification: After the press-fitting is completed, the visual system collects images again to verify whether the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 has been correctly installed. The installation quality can be confirmed by comparing the actual position of the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 with the preset position.

[0064] Those skilled in the art may know that the specific parameters of each of the above processes may be adjusted according to different specifications of membrane shells 8 and reverse osmosis membrane elements 7: the pressing force may be set according to the size of the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 and the specifications of the membrane shell 8; the accuracy of the position adjustment may be optimized according to the size requirements of the membrane shell center tube 9; the sampling frequency and recognition algorithm of the visual recognition unit may be selected according to the on-site environmental conditions.

[0065] Through the above-mentioned automated positioning-adjustment-pressing process, the device realizes accurate and efficient installation of the reverse osmosis membrane element 7 to the membrane shell 8, significantly improving the installation quality and work efficiency. At the same time, the automated control of the entire process also greatly reduces the labor intensity of the operator.

[0066] In summary, the reverse osmosis membrane assembly rapid installation device and method proposed by the present invention has the following advantages:

[0067] By setting up the coordinated cooperation of the visual recognition unit, the position adjustment device and the pressing device, the automated installation of the reverse osmosis membrane assembly is realized, which greatly improves the installation efficiency; at the same time, the precise positioning function of the visual recognition system ensures the coaxiality of the membrane element and the membrane shell, improving the installation quality.

[0068] In addition, by adopting the two-way adjustment mechanism of the height adjustment device and the horizontal adjustment device, combined with the precise load-bearing of the bracket and the uniform force of the pressing head, the risk of damage to the membrane elements during installation is effectively avoided, and the service life and operating efficiency of the equipment are significantly improved; in addition, the application of the automatic control system greatly reduces the intensity of manual operation and saves installation costs.

[0069] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
