[0085] As another embodiment, the wine bottle monitoring system includes an image acquisition unit, a data processing and analysis unit, a fault diagnosis and early warning unit, and a control and execution unit.

[0086] In this embodiment, the image acquisition unit includes a mounting frame 2003 fixedly connected to the outside of the fixing frame 200 and a plurality of industrial cameras 2004 fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting frame 2003, and according to the height h and the conveying speed v of the wine bottle, the installation angle θ of the camera and the width w of the shooting area, the following relationship is satisfied:

[0087] w=h×tanθ

[0088] The camera exposure time t exp It should be adjusted according to the conveying speed of the belt conveyor to meet the following requirements:

[0089]

[0090] For the inspection of the mouth and bottom of the wine bottle, an area array camera is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixed plate to shoot the mouth and bottom of the bottle without blind spots. The focal length f of the camera lens is selected according to the size of the shooting area and the working distance d to meet the following requirements:

[0091]

[0092] In this embodiment, a fill light is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixing plate. For bottle body crack detection, a high-brightness strip light source is used to illuminate the bottle body at an angle of 45° to enhance the contrast between the crack and the bottle body surface.

[0093] Assume the reflectivity of the bottle is R b , the luminous intensity of the light source is I s , the reflectivity at the crack is R c ,

[0094] According to Lambert's cosine law, the reflected light intensity I b and I c They are: I b =I s ×R b ×cos45°

[0095] I c =I s ×R c ×cos45°

[0096] In this embodiment, by adjusting the intensity and angle of the light source, I b and I cThe difference is obvious enough to facilitate image acquisition and subsequent defect identification. For the flatness inspection of the bottle mouth, a ring light source is used to provide uniform frontal illumination to avoid the influence of shadows on the inspection results. The inner diameter D of the ring light source i n and outer diameter D o ut according to the diameter D of the bottle mouth n Designed to meet:

[0100] In this embodiment, the data processing and analysis unit includes the following:

[0101] Image preprocessing:

[0102] In this embodiment, the collected wine bottle image is first grayed out to convert the color image into a gray image to simplify subsequent calculations and analysis. The weighted average method is used for graying, and the formula is:

[0103] Gray(x,y)=0.299×R(x,y)+0.587×G(x,y)+0.114×B(x,y)

The Gaussian filtering algorithm is used, and its filtering kernel function is:

[0105]

[0106] Among them, σ is the standard deviation. The appropriate σ value is selected according to the characteristics of the noise and the detail requirements of the image; it is generally between 0.5 and 2. By performing convolution operations on each pixel in the image and the filter kernel, noise smoothing is achieved to improve the quality of the image.

[0107] Defect feature extraction and identification:

[0108] In this embodiment, the preprocessed image is analyzed by a target detection algorithm based on deep learning to identify various defect features of the wine bottle. For cracks on the bottle body, a convolutional neural network (CNN) model is trained to automatically learn the texture, shape and grayscale change features of the cracks.

[0109] Assume that the input image of the CNN model is I. After multiple layers of convolution and pooling operations, the feature map F is obtained. Through the fully connected layer and classifier, the output is whether there are cracks in the image and the location and size of the cracks.

[0110] The model training process uses the back propagation algorithm to continuously adjust the weights and biases of the network to minimize the loss function L between the predicted results and the true labels. The commonly used loss function is the cross entropy loss function.

[0111]

[0112] Where N is the number of samples, y i is the true label (0 means no crack, 1 means crack), is the prediction output of the model;

[0113] For the flatness detection of the bottle mouth, the contour information of the bottle mouth edge is extracted to calculate its roundness error ΔC and flatness error ΔP. Assume that the coordinates of the actual contour point of the bottle mouth edge are (x i ,y i ), the ideal circle equation obtained by least squares fitting is (xa) 2 +(yb) 2 =r 2 , then the roundness error ΔC can be calculated by the following formula:

[0114]

[0115] The flatness error ΔP is determined by analyzing the height difference of the bottle mouth edge in the vertical direction. The bottle mouth edge is divided into m equal intervals, and the average height h of each interval is calculated. j , then the flatness error ΔP is:

[0116] ΔP=max(h j )-min(h j )

[0117] According to the preset threshold T C and T P , judge whether the bottle mouth is qualified. If ΔC>T C or ΔP>T P , then it is determined that there is a defect in the bottle mouth;

[0118] In this embodiment, the fault diagnosis and early warning unit includes the following:

[0119] Fault classification and evaluation:

[0120] Based on the results of defect feature extraction and recognition, the wine bottle faults are classified and evaluated, and the wine bottle defects are divided into serious defects (such as large cracks on the bottle body, serious deformation of the bottle mouth, etc.), moderate defects (such as small cracks on the bottle body, bubbles at the bottom of the bottle, etc.) and minor defects (such as scratches on the bottle surface, uneven labeling, etc.);

[0121] For each defect type, a corresponding fault assessment model is established;

[0122] For the cracks on the bottle, let the length of the crack be l, the width be w, and the depth be d. According to the principles of material mechanics and fluid mechanics, the influence of the crack on the strength and sealing of the wine bottle is evaluated. The formula is:

[0123] S=k1×l×w×d+k2×f(l,w,d)

[0124] Among them, k1 and k2 are empirical coefficients, and f(l,w,d) is a function related to the crack shape and distribution, and its specific form is determined by experimental data and simulation analysis;

[0125] According to the value of S, the bottle body crack failure is divided into different levels so that corresponding treatment measures can be taken;

[0126] Early warning mechanism and information transmission:

[0127] When the fault diagnosis unit detects a defect in a wine bottle, the early warning mechanism is immediately activated. Depending on the severity of the fault, the operator is notified through sound and light alarms, display screen prompts, and by sending alarm information to the production management system.

[0128] In this embodiment, for serious defects, a high-pitched alarm and red flashing light are used, and the position and image information of the defective wine bottle are highlighted on the display screen, and the belt conveyor is stopped at the same time to prevent unqualified products from continuing to flow into the subsequent production links; for moderate defects, a medium-pitched alarm and yellow light are issued to prompt operators to focus on and review; for minor defects, text information is displayed on the display screen, and the type and number of defects are recorded for statistical analysis and quality improvement in the subsequent production process. The early warning information also includes detailed data such as the time of the failure, the batch number of the wine bottle, and the location on the production line, which facilitates enterprises to trace quality and troubleshoot problems.

[0129] Among them, the control and execution unit includes the following:

[0130] Belt conveyor speed adjustment:

[0131] According to the working state of the image acquisition unit and the processing speed of the data processing and analysis unit, the speed v of the wine bottle belt conveyor is adjusted in real time;

[0132] Assume that the total time of image acquisition and processing is ttotal , the safe distance between two adjacent bottles of wine is s safe ,In order to ensure that there will be no missed detection or misjudgment during the detection process, the speed of the belt conveyor meets:

[0133]

[0134] By adjusting the frequency converter of the conveying motor of the belt conveyor, the speed of the belt conveyor is controlled to match the working rhythm of the detection system;

[0135] Removal of unqualified wine bottles:

[0136] When the fault diagnosis and early warning unit sends a signal of an unqualified wine bottle, the control and execution unit starts the clamping and transfer component to remove the unqualified wine bottle from the belt conveyor.

[0137] In summary, the wine bottle monitoring system uses high-resolution industrial cameras, multi-light source combinations and deep learning algorithms to conduct comprehensive and high-precision inspections of the body, mouth and bottom of the wine bottle, and accurately identify various types of defects, including tiny cracks, bubbles, deformations, scratches and label sticking problems. Compared with traditional inspection methods, the inspection accuracy is improved, missed inspections and misjudgments are avoided, and the stability and consistency of product quality are ensured.

[0138] In order for those skilled in the art to fully understand the technical solution, the method of using this embodiment is as follows:

[0139] First, the distance between the two protection plates 1007 is adjusted according to the size of the wine bottle, so that the wine bottle can be stably transported on the belt conveyor 100, as follows:

[0140] The cylinder 10017 drives the connecting frame 1002 to slide, the connecting frame 1002 drives the slider to slide, the slider drives the connecting rod 1004 to work, and the connecting rod 1004 can push the protective plate 1007 to slide left and right to adjust the distance;

[0141] Subsequently, the appearance defects of the wine bottles are inspected through the wine bottle monitoring system. When an unqualified wine bottle is encountered, the first electric push rod 2006 pushes the sliding sleeve 2007 to move downward, and the second electric push rod 2009 pushes downward synchronously. When the clamping arm 20011 is located outside the wine bottle, the first electric push rod 2006 stops moving, and the second electric push rod 2009 pushes downward, so that the clamping arm 20011 clamps the outside of the wine bottle under the push of the hinged rod 20010. Subsequently, the first electric push rod 2006 and the second electric push rod 2009 move upward synchronously. After the wine bottle is taken out, the motor 2001 drives the threaded rod 2002 to rotate, and the wine bottle is moved to the outside of the belt conveyor 100 to complete the removal.
