[0014] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0015] Example 1 Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the principle diagram of the automatic clasp intelligent identification system of the embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. The system framework of the automatic clasp intelligent identification system 1 of the present invention is composed of the following data acquisition module, automatic clasp button detection module, automatic clasp button detection module, state determination module, and alarm module: 1. Data acquisition module: ① Camera type: According to the operating environment and lighting conditions of the factory where the silicon steel roller shop disassembly and assembly machine is located, select the appropriate camera type and the pixel requirements that meet the standards, such as an industrial ball camera with more than 4 million pixels.

[0016] ② Number of cameras: Determine the number and position of cameras 1.1 according to the monitoring range of the automatic inspection station of the roller shop disassembly and assembly machine.

[0017] ③Data transmission method: Select appropriate network protocol and data transmission method, such as TCP / IP, Ethernet, etc., to ensure the stability and real-time performance of data transmission. Generally, independent TCP / IP protocol Ethernet is used.

[0018] 2. Automatic snap ring button detection model training module: ① Model training: Use the clasp image data with strong generalization for annotation and train the YOLOV5-SEG model to improve the accuracy and robustness of the model.

[0019] ② Model iteration and optimization: Optimize the parameters of the YOLOV5-SEG model, such as learning rate, number of iterations, etc., to improve the convergence speed and performance of the model.

[0020] ③ Image segmentation: Use OPENCV traditional algorithms such as perspective transformation and opening and closing operations to filter the mask image, and use post-processing operations such as Hough transformation to determine the accuracy and stability of the automatic clamping ring 3.

[0021] 3. Automatic snap ring button detection module: ①Trigger image acquisition: collect pictures through industrial ball camera.

[0022] ② Model reasoning: The collected real-time images are passed into the segmentation algorithm model for reasoning. The deep learning algorithm model identifies the mask area and two-dimensional coordinate information of the automatic snap ring button component, and obtains the world coordinate information of the automatic snap ring button component through the two-dimensional image calibration method.

[0023] 4. Status determination module: ① Automatic snap button position judgment: The system judges based on the position and distance of the automatic snap button fitting circle. If the automatic snap button fitting circle, the world coordinate system position, and the distance between the two buttons are greater than the set threshold, the automatic snap button is judged to be not fully opened.

[0024] ② Dynamic threshold: According to different working conditions, the threshold is adjusted dynamically. For different types of round sticks, the threshold can be adjusted appropriately.

[0025] 5. Alarm module: ① Sound and light alarm: When the automatic snap ring button is not fastened (when the position change of the "button" component is greater than the threshold), the system can issue an sound and light alarm, send a text message or email to notify the operator that the equipment is stopped or in an abnormal state.

[0026] The working process of the automatic clasp intelligent identification system of the present invention is as follows: This system uses a 4-megapixel 20x zoom dome camera with a focal length of 4mm. The dome camera can be rotated 360 degrees up and down, left and right, and the field of view of the dome camera can be adjusted within the range of 0 to 10m. The installation position of a dome camera can capture 4 rollers. The dome camera rotates at 4 angles, and captures a roller at each rotation angle. The installation range of the dome camera from the roller is estimated to be between 3 and 5m, depending on the specific situation on site. Each dome camera is equipped with an LED light source, and the light source switch is on the console in the central control room. The staff determines whether to turn on the light according to the on-site environment.

[0027] The automatic snap ring image captured by the ball camera is transmitted to the visual computing server 1.2, the image is analyzed by the visual detection algorithm, and combined with the image recognition algorithm, it is determined whether the automatic snap ring is in an open state or a closed state.

[0028] The targets are calibrated on different inner ring areas of the roller, and through the visual algorithm processing part, four targets of different diameters are calibrated on the side of the roller.

[0029] The final result is displayed through the HMI1.3 terminal and voice prompts are given.
