Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of new material detection, and in particular to a detection assembly line. Background Art

[0002] New materials refer to those materials that have newly emerged or are being developed and have excellent performance and special functions; these materials are usually based on traditional materials by improving their performance or giving them new functions by improving their composition, structure, design and process.

[0003] The classification of new materials is very broad. For example, they can be divided according to their properties and uses, specifically into metal materials, inorganic non-metallic materials and polymer materials. These new materials can be made into various shapes to adapt to different usage requirements. When making bottles with new materials, they need to be inspected for defects before filling with liquid, and foreign matter detection must be carried out after filling with liquid.

[0004] When inspecting bottles made of new materials, a flip light inspection machine is needed. In the related art, for example, Chinese patent application CN117630028A discloses a light inspection machine. When the light inspection machine is in use, the bottle body enters the inspection turntable from the feed dial, and the inspection turntable limits and rotates the bottle body from the top and bottom of the bottle body. At least one detection component is provided on the inspection turntable. The detection component is used to detect foreign matter in the liquid in the bottle body at the periphery of the bottle body, but it cannot detect floating objects in the liquid in the bottle body well because the floating objects are not easy to detect. The object is on the upper surface of the liquid, and the upper and lower parts of the bottle body are limited by the limiting mechanism on the detection turntable. The detection component is on the side of the bottle body, and the detection angle of the floating object is small. Therefore, the floating object in the bottle body cannot be well detected. To solve this problem, a reversing mechanism is provided on the discharging dial so that the vertical bottle body coming out of the detection turntable is turned into a horizontal one, and a liquid level detection unit is provided above the horizontal bottle body. When the bottle body is in the horizontal position, the liquid surface where the floating object is located can be completely exposed to the detection range of the liquid level detection unit, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the floating object.

[0005] Although the existing flip light inspection machine can realize the inspection of bottles made of new materials, it is found in actual use that due to the limitation of bottle size, the distance between adjacent bottles is large, resulting in fewer inspection stations on the flip light inspection machine, affecting the inspection efficiency.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the detection line provided by the embodiment of the present invention is used to detect defects of bottles made of new materials, and is configured to include a machine base 1, on which a lamp post 2 and a detection mechanism are arranged, the machine base 1 has a clamping station 101 and a loosening station 102, and the clamping station 101 and the loosening station 102 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the lamp post 2; a rotating ring 3 is sleeved on the lamp post 2, and the rotating ring 3 can rotate on its own, and a first tooth groove 301 and a second tooth groove 302 are opened on the outer peripheral wall of the rotating ring 3; the number of the first tooth groove 301 and the second tooth groove 302 are both multiple, and they are alternately arranged along the circumference; a first clamping block 4 is inserted in each first tooth groove 301, and a second clamping block 5 is inserted in each second tooth groove 302, and the length of the first clamping block 4 is greater than that of the second clamping block 5. The length of the block 5; two clamping claws 6 are arranged at the ends of the first clamping block 4 and the second clamping block 5, and the two clamping claws 6 are configured to be able to move synchronously in a direction close to each other at the clamping station 101 to clamp the bottle, and to move synchronously in a direction away from each other at the release station 102 to release the bottle; the clamping claws 6 on the first clamping block 4 and the clamping claws 6 on the second clamping block 5 are located in the same circumferential direction before clamping the bottle; the first clamping block 4 can rotate around a first axis to drive the bottle to turn 180 degrees through the two clamping claws 6, and the first axis is perpendicular to the axis of the rotating ring 3; the second clamping block 5 can rotate around a second axis to drive the bottle to turn 180 degrees through the two clamping claws 6, and the second axis is perpendicular to the axis of the rotating ring 3; the detection mechanism is used to detect defects of the bottle.

[0039] Specifically in this embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the base 1 is configured as an L-shaped table structure, and has a first table section and a second table section, wherein the table surface of the first table section is higher than the table surface of the second table section; the lamp post 2 is vertically placed on the table surface of the second table section when installed; the clamping station 101 and the releasing station 102 are both arranged on the table surface of the first table section, and are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the first table section, wherein the releasing station 102 is located on the left side of the clamping station 101.

[0040] like Figure 4As shown, the first tooth groove 301 and the second tooth groove 302 are both arranged as U-shaped structures, and the openings are both arranged outward, and the first tooth groove 301 and the second tooth groove 302 both extend along the radial direction of the rotating ring 3; the first clamping block 4 is arranged as a rectangular parallelepiped structure, and is inserted in parallel in the first tooth groove 301 during installation; in order to facilitate the first clamping block 4 to rotate around the first axis, first rotating rods are vertically arranged on the left and right side walls of the first clamping block 4, and the two first rotating rods are symmetrically arranged, and are respectively vertically inserted in the two side walls of the first tooth groove 301 during installation, and can rotate on their own, and the first axis and the axis of the first rotating rod coincide. , so that the first clamping block 4 can rotate around the first axis; the second clamping block 5 is set as a rectangular structure, and is inserted in parallel in the second tooth groove 302 during installation; second rotating rods are vertically arranged on the left and right side walls of the second clamping block 5, and the two second rotating rods are symmetrically arranged, and are respectively vertically inserted in the two side walls of the second tooth groove 302 during installation, and can rotate on their own, and the second axis and the axis of the second rotating rod coincide, so that the second clamping block 5 can rotate around the second axis; in order to avoid interference between the first clamping block 4 and the rotating ring 3 when rotating, the length of the first tooth groove 301 is set to be greater than the length of the second tooth groove 302.

[0041] Exemplarily, the number of first tooth grooves 301 can be set to twenty-four, and the twenty-four first tooth grooves 301 are evenly and spaced apart along the circumference; the number of second tooth grooves 302 can be set to twenty-four, and the twenty-four second tooth grooves 302 are evenly and spaced apart along the circumference; accordingly, the number of first clamping blocks 4 and second clamping blocks 5 are both set to twenty-four.

[0042] It can be understood that in order to facilitate the provision of driving force for the rotation of the first clamp 4 and the second clamp 5, the detection assembly line is configured to also include multiple first drive motors. The first drive motor is inserted into the rotating ring 3 during installation, and the motor shaft of the first drive motor is coaxial and fixed with the first rotating rod or the second rotating rod, so as to drive the first clamp 4 to rotate through the first rotating rod, or drive the second clamp 5 to rotate through the second rotating rod.

[0043] like Figure 5 As shown, the clamping jaw 6 is configured as an arc-shaped plate-like structure; Figure 4 As shown, the arc surface of the clamping jaw 6 is extended in the vertical direction when installed, and the two clamping jaws 6 are opened opposite to each other when installed, and are simultaneously arranged at the end of the first clamping block 4 or the second clamping block 5 away from the end of the rotating ring 3; the two clamping jaws 6 can swing toward each other synchronously to achieve opening or closing.

[0044] The inspection agency can be set up to adopt the 3D inspection technology launched by Seidenader, which can identify particulate matter in highly viscous products through high-precision processing, interaction of high-resolution cameras and innovative calculation methods; it can also be set up to adopt a fully automatic light inspection machine image acquisition system based on machine vision, which adopts an LED / laser combination lighting system and a high-speed camera. Through a five-station, dual-head mode, it can achieve high-speed acquisition and processing of dynamic images of visible foreign matter in rotating preparation bottles, and simultaneously complete the inspection of items such as liquid level in rotating preparation bottles, cracks in bottle caps and bottle walls.

[0045] During use, first start the lamp post 2 so that the lamp post 2 emits a detection light; then drive the rotating ring 3 to rotate in the counterclockwise direction, and the rotating ring 3 synchronously drives the first clamping block 4 and the second clamping block 5 to revolve in the counterclockwise direction around the axis of the rotating ring 3, and then transport the bottles one by one to the clamping station 101 with the bottle mouth facing upward; as the rotating ring 3 rotates, when the first clamping block 4 moves to the clamping station 101, the two clamping claws 6 on the first clamping block 4 synchronously move in a direction close to each other to clamp the bottle, and then start the first driving motor corresponding to the first clamping block 4, and the first driving motor drives the first clamping block 4 to revolve around the second clamping block 5 through the first rotating rod. An axis rotates 180 degrees, and the bottle is turned over 180 degrees with the bottle mouth facing downward; when the second clamping block 5 moves to the clamping station 101, the two clamping claws 6 on the second clamping block 5 move synchronously in a direction close to each other to clamp the bottle, and then the first driving motor corresponding to the second clamping block 5 is started, and the first driving motor drives the second clamping block 5 to rotate 180 degrees around the second axis through the second rotating rod, and the bottle is turned over 180 degrees with the bottle mouth facing downward; as the rotating ring 3 rotates, the bottle synchronously revolves around the axis of the rotating ring 3 under the clamping of the first clamping block 4 or the second clamping block 5, and the defects of the bottle are detected by the detection mechanism.

[0046] Because the clamping claws 6 on the first clamping block 4 and the clamping claws 6 on the second clamping block 5 are located in the same circumferential direction before clamping the bottle, and the length of the first clamping block 4 is greater than that of the second clamping block 5, after the first clamping block 4 and the second clamping block 5 are turned over, the bottle clamped by the first clamping block 4 is arranged closer to the axis of the rotating ring 3 than the bottle clamped by the second clamping block 5, so as to realize the staggered arrangement of adjacent bottles, thereby reducing the distance between adjacent bottles, so that more inspection stations can be added, which is conducive to improving the inspection efficiency.

[0047] As the rotating ring 3 rotates, when the first clamping block 4 moves to the releasing station 102, the first driving motor corresponding to the first clamping block 4 is started, and the first driving motor drives the first clamping block 4 to flip 180 degrees around the first axis through the first rotating rod, and at the same time, the bottle is flipped 180 degrees with the bottle mouth facing upward, and then the two clamping claws 6 on the first clamping block 4 move synchronously in directions away from each other to release the bottle; when the second clamping block 5 moves to the releasing station 102, the first driving motor corresponding to the second clamping block 5 is started, and the first driving motor drives the second clamping block 5 to flip 180 degrees around the second axis through the second rotating rod, and at the same time, the bottle is flipped 180 degrees with the bottle mouth facing upward, and the two clamping claws 6 on the second clamping block 5 move synchronously in directions away from each other to release the bottle.

[0048] The above process is repeated to continuously perform defect inspection on bottles made of new materials.

[0049] In some embodiments, in order to improve the degree of automation, the inspection assembly line is configured to also include a bottle feeding mechanism 7, which is configured to be able to transport bottles to the clamping station 101, so that when in use, the bottle feeding mechanism 7 can be used to automatically load bottles, thereby reducing manual participation and helping to reduce labor costs.

[0050] In a further embodiment, the bottle feeding mechanism 7 is arranged on the machine base 1, and is arranged to include a bottle feeding tray 71 and a first guide rail 72. The bottle feeding tray 71 can rotate, and a plurality of third tooth grooves 7101 are arranged on the circumferential side wall of the bottle feeding tray 71. The plurality of third tooth grooves 7101 are arranged along the circumferential direction and are all configured to clamp bottles; the first guide rail 72 is arranged as an arc-shaped structure and is coaxially arranged on the outer periphery of the bottle feeding tray 71. An arc-shaped first conveying channel is formed between the first guide rail 72 and the bottle feeding tray 71, and the outlet of the first conveying channel corresponds to the clamping station 101.

[0051] Specifically in this embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bottle feeding tray 71 and the first guide rail 72 are installed on the table surface of the first table section of the machine base 1, and are both suspended horizontally and arranged close to the clamping station 101; the first guide rail 72 is located on the left side of the bottle feeding tray 71, so that the opening of the first conveying channel is set to the right, and the entrance of the first conveying channel is formed at the bottom, and the exit of the first conveying channel is formed at the top; the third tooth groove 7101 is set as a U-shaped structure, and the opening is set outward.

[0052] Exemplary, such as Figure 2 As shown, the number of the third tooth grooves 7101 can be eleven, and the eleven third tooth grooves 7101 are evenly arranged along the circumferential direction.

[0053] It can be understood that, in order to facilitate the provision of driving force for the bottle feeding tray 71 to rotate, the detection assembly line is configured to also include a second driving motor, which is inserted into the first stage section of the machine base 1 during installation, and the motor shaft of the second driving motor is vertically upward and coaxially fixedly inserted into the bottle feeding tray 71 to drive the bottle feeding tray 71 to rotate.

[0054] During use, the second drive motor is started, and the second drive motor drives the bottle feeding plate 71 to rotate in the clockwise direction; then the bottles with the bottle mouths facing upward are transported one by one to the entrance of the first conveying channel; as the bottle feeding plate 71 rotates, the bottles are clamped into different third tooth grooves 7101 one by one, and move along the first conveying channel to the clamping station 101.

[0055] It is understandable that the bottles with their mouths facing upwards can be transported one by one to the entrance of the first conveying channel by a conveyor belt or other conveying devices.

[0056] In a further embodiment, in order to further improve the degree of automation, the bottle feeding mechanism 7 is configured to also include a screw rod 73, which is disposed on the machine base 1 and located at the entrance of the first conveying channel. The screw rod 73 and the first guide rail 72 are disposed tangentially and can rotate on their own so as to convey the bottle to the entrance of the first conveying channel.

[0057] Specifically in this embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the screw rod 73 is horizontally placed on the table surface of the first section of the machine base 1 during installation, and the left end of the screw rod 73 is rotatably arranged on the lower end of the first guide rail 72 and is tangent to the lower end of the first guide rail 72; to facilitate supporting the screw rod 73, a mounting block 12 is also fixedly arranged on the table surface of the first section of the machine base 1, and the mounting block 12 is located on the right side of the lower end of the first guide rail 72. When installed, the right end of the screw rod 73 can be rotatably inserted into the mounting block 12.

[0058] It can be understood that in order to facilitate the provision of driving force for the self-rotation of the screw rod 73, the detection assembly line is configured to also include a third drive motor. The third drive motor is arranged on the table surface of the first table section of the machine base 1 during installation, and is located on the right side of the mounting block 12. The motor shaft of the third drive motor is horizontally facing left and is coaxially fixed to the right end of the screw rod 73 to facilitate driving the screw rod 73 to rotate.

[0059] During use, the third drive motor is started, and the third drive motor drives the screw rod 73 to rotate. The screw rod 73 conveys the bottles with the bottle mouths facing upward one by one to the entrance of the first conveying channel through the spiral groove thereon. When the bottle arrives at the entrance of the first conveying channel, the bottle is pushed into the third tooth groove 7101 as the screw rod 73 rotates, and at the same time drives the bottle feeding plate 71 to rotate a certain angle in the clockwise direction, so that the next third tooth groove 7101 is correspondingly arranged with the next bottle, and the above process is repeated to drive the bottle to gradually move along the first conveying channel to the clamping station 101 through the rotation of the bottle feeding plate 71.

[0060] In other embodiments, in order to improve the degree of automation, the inspection assembly line is configured to also include a bottle receiving mechanism 8, which is configured to receive bottles at the release station 102, so that automatic bottle collection can be achieved through the bottle receiving mechanism 8 when in use, which reduces manual participation and helps to reduce labor costs.

[0061] In a further embodiment, the bottle receiving mechanism 8 is arranged on the machine base 1, and is arranged to include a bottle receiving tray 81 and a second guide rail 82. The bottle receiving tray 81 can rotate, and a plurality of fourth tooth grooves 8101 are arranged on the circumferential side wall of the bottle receiving tray 81. The plurality of fourth tooth grooves 8101 are arranged along the circumferential direction and are all configured to clamp the bottle; the second guide rail 82 is arranged as an arc-shaped structure and is coaxially arranged on the outer periphery of the bottle receiving tray 81. An arc-shaped second conveying channel is formed between the second guide rail 82 and the bottle receiving tray 81, and the entrance of the second conveying channel corresponds to the release station 102.

[0062] Specifically in this embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bottle receiving tray 81 and the second guide rail 82 are installed on the table surface of the first table section of the machine base 1, and are both suspended horizontally and are both arranged close to the loosening station 102; the second guide rail 82 is located on the right side of the bottle receiving tray 81, so that the opening of the second conveying channel is arranged to the left, and the entrance of the second conveying channel is formed at the top, and the exit of the second conveying channel is formed at the bottom; the fourth tooth groove 8101 is arranged as a U-shaped structure, and the opening faces outward.

[0063] Exemplary, such as Figure 2 As shown, the number of the fourth tooth grooves 8101 can be eleven, and the eleven fourth tooth grooves 8101 are evenly arranged along the circumferential direction.

[0064] During use, if Figure 4As shown, when the latter bottle is stuck in the fourth tooth groove 8101, with the rotation of the rotating ring 3, the bottle synchronously drives the bottle receiving plate 81 to rotate in the clockwise direction; at the same time, the clamping claw 6 corresponding to the previous bottle gradually opens, so that the bottle can enter the second conveying channel from the entrance of the second conveying channel; the above process is repeated to drive the bottle to gradually move away from the releasing station 102 along the second conveying channel through the rotation of the bottle receiving plate 81.

[0065] In other embodiments, when both the bottle feeding mechanism 7 and the bottle receiving mechanism 8 are provided, Figure 2 As shown, the first guide rail 72 and the second guide rail 82 are integrally arranged and together form an "I"-shaped structure, and the opening side wall of the structure is arranged as an arc surface to form a first conveying channel with the bottle feeding tray 71 and a second conveying channel with the bottle receiving tray 81.

[0066] In other embodiments, in order to achieve the opening or closing of the two jaws 6 on the same first clamping block 4 or second clamping block 5, the detection assembly line is configured to also include a synchronization mechanism 9, and the synchronization mechanism 9 is configured to be able to synchronously drive the two jaws 6 to open or close.

[0067] Specifically in this embodiment, the synchronization mechanism 9 is configured to include two connecting rods 91 and two partial gear rings 92, such as Figure 5 As shown, the connecting rod 91 is set to an L-shaped structure, the suspended end of the horizontal section of the connecting rod 91 is fixedly installed on the outer arc surface of the clamping jaw 6, and the two connecting rods 91 are parallel and closely arranged; the partial toothed ring 92 is fixedly sleeved on the suspended end of the vertical section of the connecting rod 91 during installation, and the teeth on the two partial toothed rings 92 are meshed with each other; Figure 4 As shown, the connecting rod 91 is inserted into the first clamp block 4 or the second clamp block 5 during installation, and the vertical section of the connecting rod 91 is extended in the vertical direction and can rotate, and the horizontal section of the connecting rod 91 is extended along the extension direction of the first tooth groove 301 or the second tooth groove 302, and the horizontal section of the connecting rod 91 is arranged outward.

[0068] It can be understood that in order to facilitate the provision of driving force for the rotation of the connecting rod 91, circular chambers are opened in the first clamping block 4 and the second clamping block 5, and the circular chambers are filled with gas or hydraulic oil. One of the connecting rods 91 is coaxial and penetrates the circular chamber during installation, and a partition is fixedly sleeved on the connecting rod 91. The partition is also inserted in the circular chamber and divides the circular chamber into two unconnected sub-chambers; the detection assembly line is configured to also include an air pump or a liquid pump, the air pump is connected to one of the sub-chambers through an air path, and the liquid pump is connected to both sub-chambers through a liquid path.

[0069] During use, take the detection line setting that also includes an air pump as an example; when it is necessary to change the working state of the clamp 6, the air pump is used to inflate the sub-chamber, the gas in the sub-chamber increases, the pressure increases, and then a pressure difference occurs between the sub-chamber and the other sub-chamber. Under the action of the pressure difference, the partition is driven to rotate, so that the volume of the other sub-chamber is reduced, and the vertical section of the connecting rod 91 is synchronously driven to rotate. On the one hand, the vertical section drives the clamp 6 to swing through the horizontal section, and on the other hand, the engagement between the partial tooth ring 92 thereon and the other partial tooth ring 92 drives the vertical section of the other connecting rod 91 to rotate. The vertical section of the other connecting rod 91 drives the other clamp 6 to swing through the horizontal section to change the working state of the clamp 6.

[0070] In other embodiments, in order to avoid damage to the bottle due to rigid clamping, an elastic portion is provided on the clamping surface of the clamping jaw 6, and the clamping jaw 6 is configured to be able to elastically clamp the bottle through the elastic portion.

[0071] Specifically in this embodiment, the elastic part can be set as an arc-shaped rubber pad, which fits on the inner arc surface of the clamping jaw 6 during installation, so that when clamping the bottle, the elastic clamping of the bottle is achieved through the elastic deformation of the arc-shaped rubber pad.

[0072] In other embodiments, in order to reduce the detection cost, the illumination range of the lamp post 2 is set to cover the fan-shaped area between the clamping station 101 and the releasing station 102, and the fan-shaped area is a major arc.

[0073] Specifically in this embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the fan-shaped annular area between the clamping station 101 and the releasing station 102 has two parts, one of which is located above the clamping station 101, the arc shape of the fan-shaped annular area is a major arc, and the first clamp block 4 and the second clamp block 5 located in the fan-shaped annular area both clamp the bottle, so the illumination of the lamp post 2 is required; the other part of the fan-shaped annular area is located below the clamping station 101, the arc shape of the fan-shaped annular area is a minor arc, and the first clamp block 4 and the second clamp block 5 located in the fan-shaped annular area do not clamp the bottle, so the illumination of the lamp post 2 is not required.

[0074] In other embodiments, the detection pipeline is configured to further include a driving component, and the driving component is configured to provide a driving force for the rotating ring 3 to rotate.

[0075] Specifically in this embodiment, the driving assembly can be configured to include a fourth driving motor, a gear and a gear ring. The fourth driving motor is installed on the table surface of the second table section of the machine base 1, and the motor shaft is arranged upward in the vertical direction; the gear is fixedly sleeved on the motor shaft of the fourth driving motor; the gear ring is coaxially and fixedly installed at the bottom of the rotating ring 3, and meshes with the gear.

[0076] During use, the fourth drive motor is started, and the fourth drive motor drives the rotating ring 3 to rotate through the meshing between the gear and the gear ring.

[0077] In other embodiments, to facilitate the placement of other tools, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a placing table 11 is further provided on the table surface of the second table section of the machine base 1 . The placing table 11 is configured as an arc-shaped plate structure and is coaxially sleeved on the outer periphery of the rotating ring 3 and is located below the rotating ring 3 .

[0078] The technical features of the above embodiments may be combined arbitrarily. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0079] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
