The operation is simple and convenient, and the working efficiency of clamping and fixing the control panel is improved.

[0030] The other end of the short shaft 15 is provided with a gear 14;

[0031] An electric push rod 32 is provided in the workbench 1, and the movable end of the electric push rod 32 is provided with a driving assembly that first acts on gear 14 and then acts on gear 2 30; through the use of the driving assembly, it is convenient to first move the placement plate 8 into the placement groove 4 to avoid the placement plate 8 affecting the rotation of the control plate, which is beneficial to the rotation of the control plate; then the clamping mechanism is driven to rotate, thereby driving the control plate to rotate, which is convenient for detecting the front, back and sides of the control plate, avoiding the phenomenon of missed inspection of the control plate, and improving the practicality of the visual inspection device; wherein, when the placement plate 8 moves downward, the rectangular groove 28 causes the fixing rod 7 to separate from the connecting shaft 6, thereby releasing the fixation of the connecting shaft 6.

[0032] In the present invention, the drive assembly includes a rectangular block 24 fixed to the movable end of the electric push rod 32 by a connecting frame 16, a strip groove 34 provided in the rectangular block 24, a movable block 25 slidably set in the strip groove 34, and a return spring 31, and the return spring 31 is located at one end of the fixed end of the electric push rod 32. The use of the return spring 31 facilitates the movement of the movable block 25; the movable block 25 is provided with a strip tooth plate 26 meshing with the gear 1 14;

[0033] A strip-shaped opening 33 is provided on the workbench 1, and a connecting rod 23 fixed to the rectangular block 24 is slidably provided in the strip-shaped opening 33.

[0035] In the present invention, the limiting member includes a connecting plate 18 slidably arranged in a rectangular groove 28 and a fixing rod 7 arranged on the connecting plate 18. By using the rectangular groove 28, it can be achieved that the movable block 9 does not drive the fixing rod 7 to move downward when descending. When it moves to a certain position, it will cause the fixing rod 7 to move downward, thereby unlocking the connecting shaft 6; a fixing hole (not shown in the figure) is provided on the outer wall of the connecting shaft 6 to cooperate with the fixing rod 7, and the top of the fixing rod 7 is movable through the workbench 1 and extends into the fixing hole. A support member acting on the connecting plate 18 is provided in the workbench 1; by using the support member, it is convenient to support the connecting plate 18, thereby facilitating the support of the fixing rod 7.

[0036] In the present invention, the support member includes an L-shaped plate 19 arranged on the inner top surface of the workbench 1 and a guide rod 21 fixed to the bottom surface of the connecting plate 18, and the bottom of the guide rod 21 is movable and extends to the bottom of the L-shaped plate 19. Through the use of the guide rod 21, it is convenient to support the connecting plate 18, thereby facilitating the up and down movement of the connecting plate 18; an extrusion spring 20 is provided on the outer wall of the guide rod 21 between the connecting plate 18 and the L-shaped plate 19. Through the use of the extrusion spring 20, the automatic reset of the fixing rod 7 is facilitated, thereby facilitating the fixation of the connecting shaft 6.

[0037] In the present invention, the clamping assembly includes a rectangular plate 10 fixed to the end of the connecting shaft 6, a threaded hole opened on the rectangular plate 10 and a screw rod 29 threadedly connected to the threaded hole. A clamping plate 11 is rotatably provided at one end of the screw rod 29. By using the screw rod 29, it is convenient to adjust the position of the clamping plate 11, thereby facilitating the clamping and fixing of the control panel; a guide rod 5 is provided at one end of the clamping plate 11, and one end of the guide rod 5 is movable through the rectangular plate 10; by using the guide rod 5, it is convenient to limit the clamping plate 11, thereby facilitating the clamping and fixing of the control panel.

[0038] Working principle: When the present invention is used, the control board is placed on the placement plate 8, and then the screw rod 29 is rotated. The rotation of the screw rod 29 drives the clamping plate 11 to move, and the control board is fixed by the clamping force between the two clamping plates 11;

[0039] Then open the visual detector body 3 and detect the surface defects of the control board through the visual detector body 3;

[0040] Then, the electric push rod 32 is turned on, and the movable end of the electric push rod 32 extends to drive the connecting frame 16 to move, thereby driving the rectangular block 24 to move. The movement of the rectangular block 24 is divided into the following steps:

[0041] Process 1: Under the action of the return spring 31, the rectangular block 24 will drive the movable block 2 25 to move, and then drive the gear 1 14 and the short shaft 15 to rotate, thereby driving the winch wheel 13 to rotate, and further causing the traction rope 27 to be wound around the winch wheel 13, realizing the movement of the traction rope 27, thereby driving the movable block 1 9 and the placement plate 8 to move downward;

[0042] When the rectangular block 24 moves, the strip tooth plate 1 22 moves along with the rectangular block 24 under the action of the connecting rod 23;

[0043] Among them, under the action of the rectangular groove 28, the downward movement of the movable block 9 will not drive the connecting plate 18 to move downward. When the connecting plate 18 moves to the top of the rectangular groove 28, as the movable block 9 continues to move downward, it will drive the connecting plate 18 to move downward, thereby driving the fixing rod 7 to move downward;

[0044] When the placement plate 8 enters the placement slot 4, the bar-shaped tooth plate 1 22 meshes with the gear 2 30, and the fixing rod 7 is separated from the fixing hole on the connecting shaft 6;

[0045] Process 2: As the rectangular block 24 continues to move, the bar-shaped toothed plate 26 and the gear 1 14 are relatively stationary. The bar-shaped toothed plate 1 22 moves with the rectangular block 24, driving the gear 2 30 to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting shaft 6 to rotate, thereby driving the clamping mechanism to rotate, and further driving the control board to rotate. While the control board rotates, the visual detector body 3 will continue to detect defects on the control board, thereby achieving inspection of the control board.

[0046] Among them, when the bar-shaped tooth plate 1 22 moves from one end to the other, at this time, the gear 2 30 rotates exactly 360 degrees, thereby causing the control board to rotate 360 ​​degrees, which is conducive to the detection of the control board;

[0047] When the control panel inspection is completed, the rectangular block 24 is reset by contracting the movable end of the electric push rod 32. Under the action of the reset spring 31, the bar tooth plate 1 22 is reset first, thereby driving the clamping mechanism to reset, and further driving the control panel to reset, and then the gear 1 14 and the winch wheel 13 are rotated to reset the placement plate 8. After the bar tooth plate 1 22 is separated from the gear 2 30, the fixing rod 7 is inserted into the fixing hole of the connecting shaft 6 to fix the connecting shaft 6. Finally, the placement plate 8 is reset to support the control panel, and the clamping of the control panel is manually released.

[0048] The above description of the embodiments is intended to enable one skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments shown herein but is intended to conform to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
