Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field related to brake disc defect detection, and in particular to a brake disc defect detection device for an automated production line. Background Art

[0002] The brake disc is a key component in the braking system of modern vehicles. It is responsible for converting the kinetic energy of the vehicle when it is driving into heat energy, thereby achieving deceleration or stopping. Brake discs are usually made of cast iron or composite materials, with high thermal conductivity and wear resistance. The working principle of the brake disc is similar to the brake system on a bicycle or skateboard, but more complicated. When the driver steps on the brake pedal, the hydraulic or pneumatic force in the brake system is transmitted to the brake caliper through the brake fluid or air. The brake pads in the brake caliper will press tightly against the brake disc, generating friction to slow down or stop the vehicle. When detecting defects in brake discs, it is necessary to detect their edges and flatness. Defects such as warping and bending of the brake disc edge may affect the braking performance, causing brake failure or increased braking distance. By detecting the edge of the brake disc, defective brake discs can be discovered and replaced in time to avoid safety accidents caused by brake disc failure. The flatness of the brake disc directly affects the wear uniformity of the brake pads. Uneven brake discs will cause local wear of the brake pads to increase, thereby affecting the braking effect. By testing the flatness of the brake disc, you can ensure uniform wear of the brake pads and improve the stability and reliability of the brake system.

[0003] Existing defect detection devices, such as the Chinese patent with publication number CN112033271B, disclose a vehicle brake disc flatness detection device, wherein two groups of measuring screws are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper part of the brake disc, the middle part of the measuring screw passes through the second threaded sleeve, the second threaded sleeve is threadedly matched with the measuring screw, the front end of the measuring screw is fixed with a rotating sleeve, the rear part of the rotating sleeve is covered on the outside of the front part of the second threaded sleeve, the outer surface of the second threaded sleeve is provided with a scale, the outer side of the rotating sleeve is provided with a scale value, the two groups of second threaded sleeves are symmetrically fixed to the lower end of the fixing frame, the lower end of the lifting screw is inserted into the bearing, the bearing is fixed at the center of the top of the fixing frame, the lifting screw is threadedly matched with the first threaded sleeve, the first threaded sleeve is fixed on the top fixing platform, the center positioning column is adapted to the center hole of the brake disc, and the first positioning pin and the first fixing bolt pass through the fixing bolt hole of the brake disc. The present invention has the advantages of high detection accuracy, low cost and strong adaptability.

[0004] In the above technology, the flat thickness of the brake disc is mainly measured by a measuring screw, and then the thickness of the brake disc at different radial positions is measured by lowering the height of the measuring screw multiple times, so as to determine whether the flatness of the brake disc can meet the use requirements. However, the uneven position of the brake disc is different and cannot be predicted. The thickness measurement of the measuring screw after multiple displacements may be misaligned with the uneven position, resulting in errors in the measurement structure. In addition, the measurement of the above technology is not suitable for assembly line production, and the uneven areas are not marked. Subsequent personnel need to conduct further inspections on the brake disc, and the inspection efficiency is low.

[0005] Based on this, there is still room for improvement on existing technologies. Summary of the invention

At this time, the electric drive turntable 5 is energized to drive the positioning member 6 and the brake disc to rotate at a low speed, and the edge area of ​​the brake disc is detected by the edge detection module 8 (check the edge The flatness detection module 9 detects the flatness of the lower surface of the brake disc through the flatness detection module 9. When it reaches the uneven area, the flatness detection module 9 undergoes structural changes inside, causing the electric drive turntable 5 to be short-circuited, so that the brake disc stops rotating. At this time, the pointing member 10 directly above the flatness detection module 9 points to the uneven position, and the unqualified position is determined. The present application can also perform airtightness detection on the automobile vacuum booster through the airtightness detection module 3 of the prior art.

The trigger unit 53, the motor 52 and the power supply built into the insulating shell 54 are electrically connected.

[0028] Reference Figure 6 As shown, the trigger unit 53 includes a conductive member 1 531, an insulating block 532, a contact member 533, and a conductive member 2 534. The conductive member 1 531 is installed at the left end position of the opening slot opened at the upper end of the insulating shell 54, and the insulating block 532 is horizontally slidably arranged at the right end position of the opening slot, and the insulating block 532 and the opening slot are elastically connected. The insulating block 532 always maintains a tendency to push to the left under the action of elasticity. The contact member 533 is installed in the middle of the insulating block 532, and the conductive member 2 534 is fixedly installed inside the insulating shell 54. The contact member 533 in the initial position is located at the leftmost side, thereby forming a separated and disconnected state with the conductive member 2 534.

[0029] In the actual operation process, the electric push rod 71 drives the pushing member 7 to move to the right until the edge detection module 8 arrives at the work station. At this time, the edge detection module 8 pushes the contact member 533 to the far right to contact the conductive member 2 534. The conductive member 1 531, the conductive member 2 534 and the edge detection module 8 are connected, and a passage is formed inside the electric drive turntable 5. After the motor 52 is energized, it drives the rotating disk 51 to rotate, thereby rotating the positioned brake disc at a low speed.

[0030] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 As shown, the edge detection module 8 includes a movable frame 81, a connecting rod 82, a connecting cylinder 83, a fixed plate 84, an intermediate cavity 831, a cavity 1 832, a cavity 2 833, a rotating cylinder 85, a detection member 86, an elastic telescopic rod 87, a conveying unit 88, a hose 1 89, and a hose 2 90. The movable frame 81 is slidably mounted in the connecting rod 82, and the connecting rod 82 is installed in a sliding groove opened in the middle of the pusher 7. The movable frame 81 is elastically connected to the sliding groove. The connecting cylinder 83 is connected to the movable frame 81 through the fixed plate 84.

[0031] In the actual edge detection process, the electric push rod 71 drives the push member 7 to move to the right until the edge of the brake disc enters the interior of the detection member 86, and the edge position of the low-speed rotating brake disc is detected by the detection member 86. If the edge is bent or deformed (warped up or down), the detection member 86 follows the position change (the movable frame 81 rises and falls, and the rotating cylinder 85 rotates), so that the paint in one of the conveying unit 88, output unit 1, and output unit 2 is sprayed from the spray head 861, thereby performing color marking (different marking colors indicate different bending and deformation situations).

[0032] Reference Figure 7As shown, in order to preliminarily judge whether the edge of the brake disc is tilted upward or downward, the present application makes a preliminary judgment based on the different colors of the sprayed marks. The specific structure is as follows: the right side of the connecting cylinder 83 is provided with an output port 1 834 and an output port 2 835 from top to bottom, the right end of the rotating cylinder 85 is provided with an alignment port 851, and the middle part of the detection member 86 is provided with a spray head 861, and the spray head 861 is connected to the alignment port 851; the left end of the connecting cylinder 83 is provided with an inlet port 834 and an outlet port 835. 36, and the entrance port 836 is connected to the middle cavity 831, a docking port 852 is opened at the left end of the rotating cylinder 85, a straight groove 811 is opened in the middle of the movable frame 81, and a connecting pipe 901 is connected between the right end of the straight groove 811 and the docking port 852, and a telescopic pipe 902 is connected between the left end of the straight groove 811 and the conveying unit 88; an alignment groove 821 is opened symmetrically in the middle of the connecting rod 82, and the position of the alignment groove 821 corresponds to the position of the straight groove 811.

[0033] In the actual operation process, the edge of the brake disc is deformed, and the structure of the detection member 86 may have the following situations (the detection member 86 is lifted and lowered in a straight line or the detection member 86 is adjusted and lifted and lowered at an angle). When the detection member 86 maintains the current angle and is lifted and lowered in a straight line, the movable frame 81 is lifted and lowered synchronously at this time, and the straight-through groove 811 opened therein is aligned with the alignment groove 821 in the connecting rod 82, and the angles of the connecting cylinder 83 and the rotating cylinder 85 are not changed (the right end of the middle cavity 831 is aligned with the alignment port 851 and the spray head 861), and the coating liquid in the liquid storage frame 881 in the conveying unit 88 is conveyed by pressure in sequence through the telescopic tube 902, the alignment groove 821, the straight-through groove 811, the connecting tube 901, and the middle cavity 831, and then sprayed from the spray head 861, thereby marking the coating liquid. When the edge of the brake disc is tilted upward, the detection member 86 is adjusted clockwise downward, and the movable frame 81 is lifted and lowered (although the straight-through groove 811 in the lifted movable frame 81 and the alignment groove 821 in the connecting rod 82 may be aligned, However, the right end of the intermediate cavity 831 is not aligned with the alignment port 851, so that the coating liquid in the conveying unit 88 will not be pressurized and sprayed out). At this time, the angle of the rotating cylinder 85 changes so that the alignment port 851 is aligned with the output port 2 835. At this time, the coating liquid is pressurized through the output unit 2 and passes through the hose 2 90 and the cavity 2 833 in sequence, and then is sprayed out from the spray head 861, thereby marking the coating liquid. When the edge of the brake disc tilts downward, the detection member 86 is adjusted counterclockwise and upward, and the movable frame 81 rises downward. At this time, the angle of the rotating cylinder 85 changes so that the alignment port 851 is aligned with the output port 1 834. At this time, the coating liquid is pressurized through the output unit 1 and passes through the hose 1 89 and the cavity 1 832 in sequence, and then is sprayed out from the spray head 861, thereby marking the coating liquid. According to different situations encountered during the brake disc detection process, the conveying unit 88, the output unit 1, the output unit 2 and the spray head 861 are aligned and connected, so that three different colors of marks are sprayed out, and the edge situation is preliminarily judged by the different colors of the marks.

[0034] Reference Figure 4 As shown, the conveying unit 88 is a unit with the same structure and size as the output unit 1 and the output unit 2.

A telescopic tube 902 is connected between the liquid storage frame 881 and the left end of the straight groove 811. The liquid storage frame 881 in the output unit 1 is connected to the cavity 1 832 through the hose 1 89, and the liquid storage frame 881 in the output unit 2 is connected to the cavity 2 833 through the hose 2 90.

[0035] During the actual operation, the coating liquid is injected into the liquid storage frame 881 and covered with a pressure cover 882. The coating liquid in the liquid storage frame 881 is pressed downward by gravity so as to always maintain a downward output trend. When one of the conveying unit 88, output unit 1, and output unit 2 is aligned and connected with the spray head 861, the corresponding coating liquid can be pressurized and sprayed out.

[0036] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 8 As shown, after the brake disc is positioned, the present application triggers the electric drive turntable 5 to rotate after pushing the flatness detection module 9 to the right to the work station. At this time, the flatness detection module 9 is not working. The flatness detection module 9 is triggered only when the edge detection module 8 detects an unqualified area. The flatness detection module 9 is detected by the rising flatness detection module 9 on the lower surface of the brake disc. When an uneven position is detected, the electric drive turntable 5 can be powered off to stop rotating. At this time, the pointing member 10 is located directly above the uneven area of ​​the brake disc. The specific structure of the flatness detection module 9 is as follows: the flatness detection module 9 includes an insulating frame 91, an insulating plate 92, a conductive plate 93, a detection unit 94, a conductive block 95, a conductive frame 96, and a lifting unit 97. The insulating frame 91 is installed on the right side of the lower end of the pusher 7, and the insulating plate 92 is slidably arranged inside the insulating frame 91. The interlayer of the insulating plate 92 is from left to right. On the right, conductive plates 93 are arranged in sequence, a detection unit 94 is arranged between adjacent conductive plates 93, a wire is connected between the conductive block 95 and the leftmost conductive plate 93, the conductive block 95 corresponds to the position between the conductive member 1 531, a conductive frame 96 is installed at the lower end of the rightmost conductive plate 93, and the position between the conductive frame 96 and the contact member 533 corresponds (the push member 7 is driven to move to the right by the electric push rod 71 until the edge detection module 8 arrives at the work station, at this time, the conductive frame 96 contacts the contact member 533 and pushes the contact member 533 to the rightmost side so as to contact the conductive member 2 534, the contact area between the conductive frame 96 and the contact member 533 is large, even if the conductive frame 96 rises to a certain height with the conductive plate 93, the two will not be separated), and a lifting unit 97 is installed in the built-in cavity opened by the push member 7, and the lifting unit 97 is connected to the insulating plate 92.

[0037] In the actual operation process, the electric push rod 71 drives the push member 7 to move to the right until the edge detection module 8 arrives at the work station. At this time, the conductive block 95 in the flatness detection module 9 contacts the conductive member 1 531 in the electric drive turntable 5, and the conductive frame 96 pushes the contact member 533 to the rightmost side so as to contact the conductive member 2 534 (conductive frame 96, contact member 533, conductive member 2 534 contact), and a passage is formed inside the electric drive turntable 5. After the motor 52 is energized, it drives the rotating disk 51 to rotate, thereby rotating the positioned brake disc at a low speed, and then the edge of the brake disc is detected by the edge detection module 8. The flatness detection module 9 is triggered when an unqualified edge is detected. At this time, the movable frame 81 is lifted and lowered, thereby triggering the lifting unit 97 to drive the insulating plate 92 and the conductive plate 93 to rise synchronously until the detection unit 94 rises to the detection height. At this time, the detection unit 94 is used to detect the flatness of the lower surface of the brake disc. When concave or convex conditions occur, the detection unit 94 corresponding to its position changes in height, thereby forming a short-circuit state at this position, so that the electric drive turntable 5 is powered off as a whole, and the electric drive turntable 5 can stop rotating. At this time, the pointing member 10 is located directly above the uneven area of ​​the brake disc.

[0038] Reference Figure 8 As shown, the present application further improves the structure of the detection unit 94 and the lifting unit 97. Specifically, the detection unit 94 includes an insulating head 941, a conductive head 942, an empty slot 943, and a conductive joint 944. The insulating head 941 is slidably arranged in the insulating frame 91, and the conductive head 942 is installed at the lower end of the insulating head 941. The empty slots 943 are symmetrically opened at the upper and lower ends of the conductive head 942. The conductive head 942 at the initial height is in contact with the conductive joint 944, and the insulating layer arranged at the lower end of the conductive head 942 is elastically connected to the insulating frame 91. The conductive joint 944 is installed at the side end of the conductive plate 93, and the conductive head 942 is located between the conductive joints 944.

[0039] Reference Figure 4 , Fig. 9 As shown, the lifting unit 97 includes an electric push rod 971 and a control switch 972. The electric push rod 971 is installed in the built-in cavity, and the ejection end of the electric push rod 971 is connected to the insulating plate 92. The control switch 972 is installed in the built-in cavity, and the electric push rod 971, the control switch 972 and the battery in the built-in cavity are electrically connected.

[0040] Reference Fig. 9As shown, the control switch 972 includes an insulating box 9721, which is installed in the built-in cavity. A control member 9722 made of conductive material is provided inside the insulating box 9721 for sliding up and down. The control member 9722 is a "mountain"-shaped structure. An insulating rod 9723 is connected between the upper end of the control member 9722 and the movable frame 81. A conductive contact 9724 corresponding to the position of the control member 9722 is fixedly installed in the insulating box 9721. The control member 9722 at an initial height is not in contact with the conductive contact 9724. The conductive contact 9724, the electric push rod 971, and the battery are electrically connected.

[0041] During the actual operation, when an unqualified edge is detected, the flatness detection module 9 is triggered. At this time, the movable frame 81 is lifted and lowered, thereby driving the insulating rod 9723 to lift and lower. The synchronously lifted control member 9722 will contact the conductive contact 9724 to energize the electric push rod 971, thereby driving the insulating plate 92 and the conductive plate 93 to rise synchronously until the detection unit 94 rises to the detection height. At this time, the flatness of the lower surface of the brake disc is detected by the detection unit 94. When concave or convex conditions occur, the insulating head 941 in contact with its lower surface is lifted and lowered synchronously. At this time, the vacant slot 943 in the synchronously lifted conductive head 942 is aligned with the conductive joint 944, so that its current position is in an open circuit state. At this time, the electric drive turntable 5 is powered off as a whole, and the electric drive turntable 5 can stop rotating.

[0042] Working principle: Brake disc inspection: Step 1: The multi-degree-of-freedom manipulator 12 is driven by the electric slider to move to the upper position of the existing conveyor belt, the brake disc is grabbed by the multi-degree-of-freedom manipulator 12 and placed on the placement plate 4 under the conveyance of the electric slider, and the brake disc is centrally positioned by the positioning member 6; Step 2: The electric push rod 71 drives the push member 7 to move rightward until the edge detection module 8 reaches the working position. At this time, the electric drive turntable 5 is energized to drive the positioning member 6 and the brake disc to rotate at a low speed; Step 3: The edge area of ​​the brake disc is detected by the edge detection module 8. When the detection is unqualified, the edge detection module 8 marks the unqualified edge with a color, and the edge detection module 8 triggers the flatness detection module 9 to rise and make it abut against the lower end surface of the brake disc. The flatness of the lower surface of the brake disc is detected by the flatness detection module 9. When it reaches the uneven area, the flatness detection module 9 has a structural change inside so that the electric drive turntable 5 is disconnected, so that the brake disc can stop rotating. At this time, the pointing member 10 located directly above the flatness detection module 9 points to the uneven position, and the unqualified position is determined; Air tightness test: The air tightness detection module 3 of the prior art is used to detect the air tightness of the automobile vacuum booster.
