[0002] Industrial intelligent visual inspection is a detection method that integrates computer vision, artificial intelligence and image processing technology. It plays an increasingly important role in modern industrial production. First of all, industrial intelligent visual inspection uses computer vision algorithms to automatically analyze and identify products in the industrial manufacturing process.

Since the two clamping plates 24 are fixedly connected to the support plate 20, the support plate 20 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 18 through two adapter blocks, thereby driving the two clamping plates 24 and the clamped workpiece to rotate counterclockwise, it is convenient for the industrial camera 5 to take a picture of the outer wall of the other end of the workpiece, and then the pictures taken at both ends are compared with the image standard values of both ends preset in the controller.
[0046] Reference Figures 1 to 8As shown, the grabbing assembly includes a support plate 20, a micro motor 21, a bidirectional screw 22, two slide rails 23 and two clamps 24.

When the distance sensor 7 detects that the defective workpiece is grabbed to the top of the flat groove 31 inside the collection box 6, the signal is sent to the controller, so that the two clamps 24 are released by the controller, and the defective workpiece is placed horizontally on the top of the flat groove 31, and then the servo motor 25 is started by the controller, so that its output end drives the turntable 26 to rotate counterclockwise.

When the defective workpiece placed on the top of the flat groove 31 is pushed from the flat groove 31 to the inclined groove 30, since a plurality of accommodating cavities are evenly spaced on the top of the inclined groove 30 through a plurality of partitions 32, the defective workpiece is pushed into one of the accommodating cavities. The plurality of accommodating cavities can prevent a plurality of rows of defective workpieces, and thus prevent them from colliding and being damaged by subsequently placed defective workpieces, causing secondary damage, aggravating the degree of defects and affecting subsequent rework or even causing damage, thereby avoiding further losses. Here, it should be noted that the rotating shaft 3 cooperates with the telescopic assembly to drive the two clamps 24 to place all detected defective workpieces one by one into the plurality of accommodating cavities.
[0050] Reference Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the driving assembly includes a DC motor 33, a first gear 34 and a second gear 35.

When it is determined that there is no defect in the workpiece, that is, when it is determined to be a good workpiece, the DC motor 33 is started by the controller, so that the first gear 34 on the output end thereof rotates clockwise. Since the first gear 34 It is meshed with the second gear 35, and the second gear 35 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 3, and then the rotating shaft 3 is driven to rotate counterclockwise through the second gear 35. Since the top of the rotating shaft 3 is fixedly connected to the support plate 4, the screening mechanism is arranged on the support plate 4, and then the clamped good workpiece is driven to rotate toward the end close to the second conveyor 40. When the two rotating clamps 24 drive the clamped good workpiece to rotate between the two baffles 37 above the second conveyor 40, the two clamps 24 are loosened through the controller to prevent the good workpiece from passing through the passage between the two baffles 37, and the good workpiece is discharged through the second conveyor 40.

[0053] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the first conveyor 39 is used to convey workpieces, and the second conveyor 40 is used to discharge good workpieces that meet the inspection requirements. When performing defect inspection on the workpiece, the workpiece is first placed between the two baffles 37 on the first conveyor 39. The channel between the two baffles 37 forms a conveying path, thereby ensuring that the workpieces are conveyed to the screening mechanism in a line-up state for easy grasping. The two baffles 37 play a limiting role.
[0054] When the workpiece is transported to and close to the collection box 6, the first electric push rod 9 is started by the controller, so that its output end extends to the end away from the support arm 10. Since one of the support arms 10 and the two second articulated arms 12 are respectively connected to the two ends of the first electric push rod 9, the two support arms 10 are fixedly connected to the support plate 4, and each support arm 10 and one second articulated arm 12 are respectively connected to the two ends of a first articulated arm 11, thereby driving the first articulated arm 11 and the second articulated arm 12 to expand obliquely downward toward the end close to the workpiece, that is, to approach the workpiece.
[0055] When the two second articulated arms 12 drive the two clamps 24 to approach the workpiece, the micromotor 21 is started through the controller, so that its output end drives the bidirectional screw 22 fixedly connected to it to rotate, and two ends of the bidirectional screw 22 are symmetrically provided with two threaded sections with different rotation directions. Since one end of each clamp 24 is slidably connected to a slide rail 23, one end of each clamp 24 is threadedly connected to one end of the bidirectional screw 22, and the bidirectional screw 22 is rotatably connected to the two limit blocks, the two clamps 24 are driven to approach each other and clamp the workpiece. Several anti-slip strips 38 play a role in increasing friction, thereby ensuring that the two clamps 24 can clamp the workpiece tighter, prevent slipping during detection, and improve detection efficiency.
[0056] When the two clamps 24 clamp the workpiece, the industrial camera 5 is started through the controller to take a picture of the outer wall of one end of the workpiece, and the diffuse scattering light source 19 is started to illuminate the workpiece to improve the clarity of the picture and prevent blurry pictures caused by insufficient light. When one side is taken, the second electric push rod 15 is started through the controller, so that it extends to the end close to the cover 2 through the push block 16 on its output end. Since its output end is fixedly connected to the rack 13 through the push block 16 and the connecting rod, the rack 13 is slidably connected to the guide rail 17, the bevel gear 14 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 18, and the bevel gear 14 is meshed with the rack 13, thereby driving the rotating rod 18 to rotate counterclockwise. Since the two clamps 24 are fixedly connected to the support plate 20, the support plate 20 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 18 through two adapter blocks, thereby driving the two clamps 24 and the clamped workpiece to rotate counterclockwise, so that the industrial camera 5 can take pictures of the outer wall of the other end of the workpiece, and then the pictures taken at both ends are compared with the image standard values of both ends preset in the controller.
[0057] When a workpiece is determined to be free of defects, that is, when it is determined to be a good workpiece, the DC motor 33 is started by the controller, so that the first gear 34 on its output end rotates clockwise. Since the first gear 34 is meshed with the second gear 35, the second gear 35 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 3, and then the rotating shaft 3 is driven to rotate counterclockwise through the second gear 35. Since the top of the rotating shaft 3 is fixedly connected to the support plate 4, the screening mechanism is arranged on the support plate 4, and then the clamped good workpiece is driven to rotate toward the end close to the second conveyor 40. When the two rotating clamps 24 drive the clamped good workpiece to rotate between the two baffles 37 above the second conveyor 40, the two clamps 24 are loosened by the controller to prevent the good workpiece from passing through the passage between the two baffles 37, and the good workpiece is discharged through the second conveyor 40.
[0058] When it is determined that the workpiece has defects, that is, it is a defective product, the workpiece is first rotated to a horizontal clamping state through the angle adjustment component, and then the two clamping plates 24 and the clamped defective workpiece are driven to grab the end close to the collection box 6 through the telescopic component. When the distance sensor 7 detects that the defective workpiece is grabbed to the top of the flat groove 31 inside the collection box 6, the signal is sent to the controller, so that the two clamping plates 24 are loosened through the controller, and the defective workpiece is placed horizontally on the top of the flat groove 31. Then, the servo motor 25 is started through the controller, so that its output end drives the turntable 26 to rotate counterclockwise. Since the connecting rod 27 is hinged to the top of the turntable 26, the connecting rod 27 is driven to rotate counterclockwise.
[0059] When the connecting rod 27 rotates counterclockwise, since the outer wall of the end of the collecting box 6 away from the cover shell 2 is symmetrically designed with two slide grooves, the end of the connecting rod 27 away from the turntable 26 is hinged to the top of one of the sliders 29, and each slider 29 is slidably connected to a slide groove. The two ends of the push plate 28 are respectively fixedly connected to the two sliders 29, thereby pushing the defective workpiece placed on the top of the flat groove 31 from the flat groove 31 to the inclined groove 30.
[0060] When the defective workpiece placed on the top of the flat groove 31 is pushed from the flat groove 31 to the inclined groove 30, since the top of the inclined groove 30 is designed with several accommodating cavities at equal intervals through several partitions 32, the defective workpiece is pushed into the inside of one of the accommodating cavities. Several accommodating cavities can prevent several rows of defective workpieces, and thus prevent them from colliding and being damaged by subsequently placed defective workpieces, causing secondary damage, aggravating the degree of defects and affecting subsequent rework or even causing damage, thereby avoiding further losses. Here, it should be noted that the rotating shaft 3 cooperates with the telescopic assembly to drive the two clamps 24 to place all detected defective workpieces one by one into several accommodating cavities.
