DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to fully understand the present invention, and the embodiments described are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the art without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used in the specification of the present invention herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0036] Example: like Figure 1-17 As shown, a table tennis ball quality inspection device is provided in this embodiment, including: an equipment frame 1, on which a loading component 2, a quality inspection component 3 and a unloading component 4 are arranged.

[0037] See also Figure 2-6 , wherein the feeding assembly 2 includes a feeding box 201, a first feeding guide 202, a second feeding guide 203, a feeding guide driving device 204, a first feeding bracket 205 and a second feeding bracket 206; The feeding box 201 is arranged at the equipment frame 1 of the table tennis quality inspection equipment through the first feeding bracket 205, and the first feeding guide 202 is arranged at the equipment frame 1 of the table tennis quality inspection equipment through the second feeding bracket 206; One end of the feeding guide driving device 204 is connected to the first feeding guide 202, and the driving end of the feeding guide driving device 204 is connected to the second feeding guide 203; The feeding box 201 is provided with a feeding port 2011, the position of the first feeding guide 202 corresponds to the position of the feeding port 2011, the first feeding guide 202 is provided with a first guiding port 2021, and the second feeding guide 203 is provided with a second guiding port 2031; The feeding guide driving device 204 drives the second feeding guide 203 to move relative to the first feeding guide 202 , and can make the position of the second feeding opening 2031 correspond to the position of the first feeding opening 2021 .

[0038] The feeding assembly of the table tennis quality inspection equipment of the present embodiment, its feeding box 201 is used for placing the table tennis balls to be inspected, and the feeding port 2011 of the feeding box 201 is arranged toward the quality inspection placement area of ​​the table tennis quality inspection equipment. Because the number of table tennis balls to be inspected is large and the size is small, a first feeding guide 202 and a second feeding guide 203 are arranged to perform multiple guiding on the table tennis balls. Specifically, the first guiding is performed through the first guide port 2021, and then the feeding guide driving device 204 acts on the second feeding guide 203 to move relative to the first feeding guide 202, so that the position of the second guide port 2031 corresponds to the position of the first guide port 2021, thereby performing a second guiding, so as to facilitate the automatic introduction of the table tennis balls into the quality inspection placement area of ​​the table tennis quality inspection equipment, facilitate subsequent inspection processes, reduce the participation of manual placement operations, and improve overall production efficiency.

[0039] The specific structure of the feeding box 201 of this embodiment is as follows: It includes a loading box cavity, and a feeding port 2011 is arranged at the bottom of the loading box cavity.

[0040] Specifically, the bottom of the loading box cavity includes a plurality of loading box cavity bottom plates 2012 . The loading box cavity bottom plates 2012 are arranged around the feeding port 2011 and are inclined relative to the feeding port 2011 .

[0041] At the same time, an outwardly convex external loading cavity 2013 is provided on the side of the loading box 201, and the external loading cavity 2013 is communicated with the loading box cavity.

[0042] Specifically, the bottom plate of the external loading cavity 2013 is tilted relative to the feeding port 2011 .

[0043] In the above structure, the external loading cavity 2013 is convexly arranged to facilitate the operator to guide the table tennis ball to be tested from this position to the loading box cavity. At the same time, the loading box cavity bottom plate 2012 and the external loading cavity bottom plate are inclined relative to the feeding port 2011, which can make the table tennis ball enter the position of the feeding port 2011 more smoothly.

[0044] The specific structure of the first feeding guide 202 of this embodiment is as follows: The first feeding guide 202 is a columnar structure and cooperates with the feeding port 2011. A concave first feeding guide portion 2022 is provided on one end face of the first feeding guide 202. The inner wall surface of the first feeding guide portion 2022 is arc-shaped. The number of the first guide ports 2021 is more than two and they are independently arranged on the first feeding guide portion 2022.

[0045] Specifically, the number of the second material guiding openings 2031 corresponds to the number of the first material guiding openings 2021 , and the cross-sections of the first material guiding openings 2021 and the second material guiding openings 2031 are circular.

[0046] In the above structure, the first loading guide portion 2022 is arranged in the direction of the loading box cavity. According to the concave structure of the first loading guide portion 2022 and the arc-shaped structure of the inner wall surface of the first loading guide portion 2022, which matches the spherical structure of the table tennis ball, the table tennis ball can pass through the first loading guide portion 2022 more smoothly and enter the first guide port 2021. According to the usage scenario of the embodiment, the number of the first guide port 2021 and the second guide port 2031 of this embodiment is twelve, and the overall arrangement is in a triangular shape. A plurality of table tennis balls to be inspected can be grouped as twelve into the quality inspection placement area of ​​the table tennis quality inspection equipment. When a group of twelve table tennis balls to be inspected enter the quality inspection placement area, the second loading guide 203 can be moved again relative to the first loading guide 202, and the position of the second guide port 2031 is staggered from the position of the first guide port 2021 to prevent other table tennis balls to be inspected from entering the quality inspection placement area.

[0047] In this embodiment, a first loading guide track 2023 is provided on the outer wall surface of the first loading guide 202 , and a second loading guide seat 2032 is provided on the second loading guide 203 . The first loading guide track 2023 cooperates with the second loading guide seat 2032 .

[0048] Specifically, the first feeding guide rails 2023 are symmetrically arranged on the outer wall surfaces on both sides of the first feeding guide member 202; The second feeding guide bending parts 2033 are provided at both ends of the second feeding guide 203 , and the second feeding guide seat 2032 is provided on the second feeding guide bending parts 2033 .

[0049] Through the above structure, specifically, the first loading guide rail 2023 cooperates with the second loading guide seat 2032 to ensure the stability of the second loading guide 203 during the movement relative to the first loading guide 202.

[0050] It should also be noted that the feeding guide driving device 204 of this embodiment is a cylinder.

[0051] See also Figure 1 The quality inspection component 3 of this embodiment includes a quality inspection turntable mechanism 301, a flip mechanism 302 and a detection camera mechanism 303, and the specific structure is as follows: See also Fig.10 The quality inspection turntable mechanism 301 includes a rotation drive device 3011 and a quality inspection turntable member 3012. The driving end of the rotation drive device 3011 is connected to the quality inspection turntable member 3012. The rotation drive device 3011 drives the quality inspection turntable member 3012 to rotate relative to the equipment frame 1. The quality inspection turntable member 3012 is provided with a quality inspection placement area 30121, and a hollow portion is provided in the quality inspection placement area 30121; See also Figure 7-9 The flipping mechanism 302 includes a flipping drive device and a flipping drive member. The flipping drive device includes a longitudinal flipping drive device 3021 and a transverse flipping drive device 3022. The flipping drive member includes a longitudinal flipping drive member 3023 and a transverse flipping drive member 3024. The longitudinal flipping drive member 3023 and the transverse flipping drive member 3024 are respectively connected to the driving ends of the longitudinal flipping drive device 3021 and the transverse flipping drive device 3022. The longitudinal flipping drive device 3021 drives the longitudinal flipping drive member 3023 to move in the longitudinal direction relative to the end face of the equipment frame 1, and the transverse flipping drive device 3022 drives the transverse flipping drive member 3024 to move in the transverse direction relative to the end face of the equipment frame 1. The flipping drive member is relatively arranged below the quality inspection turntable member 3012.

[0052] The batch fixed-angle flipping device of the table tennis quality inspection equipment of the present embodiment has a quality inspection placement area 30121 for placing the table tennis balls 5 to be inspected. The inspection camera mechanism 303 in the table tennis quality inspection equipment adopts a shooting camera for shooting the appearance of the table tennis balls. Because the quality inspection placement area 30121 has a hollow portion, the table tennis balls cooperate with the hollow portion, so a part of the table tennis balls is below the bottom end surface of the quality inspection turntable 3012. The flipping drive device can respectively act on the longitudinal flipping drive member 3023 and the transverse flipping drive member 3024 to move in the longitudinal direction and the transverse direction relative to the end surface of the equipment frame 1. Therefore, the longitudinal flipping drive member 3023 and the transverse flipping drive member 3024 can contact the table tennis balls and act to flip the table tennis balls in the quality inspection placement area 30121, thereby ensuring that the inspection camera mechanism 303 in the table tennis quality inspection equipment can take all-round pictures of the table tennis balls and ensure the accuracy of the inspection.

[0053] The specific structure of the flipping mechanism 302 of this embodiment is as follows: The longitudinal flip driving device 3021 includes a longitudinal rotating motor 30211, a longitudinal guide rail 30212 and a longitudinal screw rod. The driving end of the longitudinal rotating motor 30211 is connected to the longitudinal screw rod. The longitudinal flip driving member 3023 is threadedly matched with the longitudinal screw rod. The longitudinal flip driving member 3023 is slidably matched with the longitudinal guide rail 30212. The lateral flipping driving device 3022 includes a lateral rotating motor, a lateral guide rail and a lateral screw rod. The driving end of the lateral rotating motor is connected to the lateral screw rod. The lateral flipping driving member 3024 is threadedly matched with the lateral screw rod. The lateral flipping driving member 3024 is slidably matched with the lateral guide rail.

[0054] The above screw rod structure, in combination with the structure of the guide rail, can ensure the stability of the movement of the longitudinal flip driving member 3023 and the transverse flip driving member 3024.

[0055] At the same time, the longitudinal flip driving member 3023 and the transverse flip driving member 3024 of this embodiment are both long strip plate structures. It should be noted that the longitudinal flip driving member 3023 and the transverse flip driving member 3024 of this embodiment move independently. When the longitudinal flip driving member 3023 moves, the transverse flip driving member 3024 needs to be restored to the initial position, that is, back to one side of the quality inspection placement area 30121, to avoid mutual interference between the longitudinal flip driving member 3023 and the transverse flip driving member 3024, which affects the flipping effect on the table tennis ball.

[0056] The quality inspection turntable 3012 of this embodiment is circular in shape, and the driving end of the rotating driving device 3011 is connected to the central axis of the quality inspection turntable 3012. The number of quality inspection placement areas 30121 is more than two and is evenly distributed around the central axis of the quality inspection turntable 3012. At the same time, the quality inspection turntable 3012 is arranged parallel to the end face of the equipment frame 1.

[0057] When the rotation driving device 3011 drives the quality inspection turntable 3012 to rotate relative to the equipment frame 1, the position of one of the quality inspection placement areas 30121 corresponds to the position of the flip mechanism 302. The rotation driving device 3011 of the present application can be a rotation motor.

[0058] Specifically, the quality inspection placement area 30121 is fan-shaped, and a plurality of placement holes 30122 for placing table tennis balls are provided in the quality inspection placement area 30121, and the plurality of placement holes 30122 form a hollow portion.

[0059] In the above structure, when the position of one of the quality inspection placement areas 30121 corresponds to the position of the flipping mechanism 302, the longitudinal flipping driving component 3023 and the transverse flipping driving component 3024 of the flipping mechanism 302 act on the ping-pong ball at that position to rotate, and the ping-pong balls in the quality inspection placement areas 30121 at other positions are in a state to be tested. After the test is completed, the rotating driving device 3011 acts on the quality inspection turntable component 3012 to rotate, so that the adjacent quality inspection placement area 30121 enters the position of the flipping mechanism 302 for the next flipping and testing process.

[0060] See also Figure 11-13 The detection camera mechanism 303 of this embodiment includes a side detection camera mechanism 3031, a top detection camera mechanism 3032 and a detection lighting mechanism 3033. The number of the side detection camera mechanism 3031 and the detection lighting mechanism 3033 is more than two and they are arranged on the periphery of the quality inspection placement area 30121 of the quality inspection turntable 3012. The top detection camera mechanism 3032 is relatively arranged above the quality inspection placement area 30121 of the quality inspection turntable 3012.
