DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following: Example 1 like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present application provides a fully automatic inspection device, including a detection mechanism 1, a first pressing mechanism 2, a second pressing mechanism 3, a material picking mechanism 4 and a material discharge tray 5. The detection mechanism 1 is used to detect the material to be detected to realize the detection of the length dimension of the material to be detected, for example. The first pressing mechanism 2 and the second pressing mechanism 3 can press and fix the material to be detected from different directions to prevent it from displacement during the detection process. For example, the material to be detected can be in the shape of an axle. The first pressing mechanism 2 can press the material to be detected in the radial direction, and the second pressing mechanism 3 can press the material to be detected in the axial direction. When the detection mechanism 1 completes the detection of the material to be detected 10, the material picking mechanism 4 can transfer the detected material to the material discharge tray 5.

[0021] Specifically, the detection mechanism 1 includes a detection table 1a and a detection station 1b arranged on the detection table 1a. The material to be detected can be placed on the detection station 1b. The detection station 1b includes a positioning table 1b-1 and a detection component 1b-2 arranged on the detection table 1a. The detection component 1b-2 includes at least an infrared transmitter for measuring length, and other detectors can also be additionally arranged on the positioning table 1b-1 according to actual detection needs. A V-shaped groove can be provided on the positioning table 1b-1, so that the material to be detected in the shape of a shaft rod can be placed in the V-shaped groove without basically causing lateral displacement. The detection station 1b can be detachably connected to the detection table 1a by screws. For example, threaded holes can be provided on the detection station 1b and the detection table 1a, and screwing screws into the threaded holes can achieve detachable connection between the detection station and the detection table.

[0022] Preferably, the first pressing mechanism 2 and the second pressing mechanism 3 are both arranged on the detection platform 1a. Specifically, the first pressing mechanism 2 includes a support column 2a, a first push rod motor 2b and a first pressing block 2c. The support column 2a can be detachably arranged on the detection platform 1a by bolts. The first pressing block 2c is located directly above the detection station 1b, and then when the first pressing block 2c moves downward, the first pressing block 2c can press and fix the material to be detected placed on the detection station. The first push rod motor 2b is arranged on the support column 2a and connected to the first pressing block 2c, thereby providing a driving force for the movement of the first pressing block 2c. The second pressing mechanism 3 includes a cylinder 3a and a second pressing block 3b. The cylinder 3a is arranged on the detection platform 1a, and the second pressing block 3b is connected to the cylinder 3a, so that the cylinder 3a can provide a driving force for the movement of the second pressing block 3b. The cylinder 3a is located on the side of the positioning platform 1b-1, so that the second pressing block 3b can move along the axial direction of the material to be detected, thereby pressing and fixing it. Through the double pressing and fixing of the first pressing mechanism and the second pressing mechanism, the position stability of the material to be detected during the detection process can be further improved, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the detection accuracy.

[0023] Preferably, the fully automatic inspection equipment further comprises a base 6, on which the inspection mechanism 1, the material taking mechanism 4 and the material discharging tray 5 are all arranged. The material discharging tray 5 has an inclined surface, and when the inspected material is placed on the material discharging tray 5, it can roll to the plane on the material discharging tray 5 based on its own gravity. The material taking mechanism 4 comprises a driving motor 4a, a rotating shaft 4b, a supporting arm 4c and a mechanical claw 4d. The rotating shaft 4a is rotatably arranged on the base 6, and the driving motor 4a is arranged on the base 6 and connected to the rotating shaft 4a, so that the rotating shaft 4a can be rotated under the drive of the driving motor 4a. One end of the support arm 4c is connected to the rotating shaft 4a, and a mechanical gripper 4d is arranged on the other end of the support arm 4c. When the rotating shaft 4a rotates, the mechanical gripper 4d can also move to the designated position accordingly. The designated position includes a first designated position and a second designated position. The first designated position can be located at the detection mechanism 1, so that the mechanical gripper 4d can clamp the material that has been detected. The second designated position can be the material discharge tray 5, so that the mechanical gripper 4d can place the clamped material on the material discharge tray 5.

[0024] Example 2 This embodiment is a further improvement on Embodiment 1, and the repeated contents will not be repeated here.

[0025] Preferably, the first pressing mechanism 2 and the second pressing mechanism 3 are interlocked with each other, so that the movement of the first pressing mechanism 2 can drive the movement of the second pressing mechanism 3, wherein, after the second pressing mechanism 3 completes the pressing and fixing of the material to be detected, the first pressing mechanism 2 completes the pressing and fixing of the material to be detected. Specifically, the first push rod motor 2b and the cylinder 3a can be connected through a ventilation hose, and when the external gas enters the first push rod motor 2b and pushes its piston to move, the external gas can also enter the cylinder 3a through the ventilation hose to push its piston to move. The inner diameter of the inner cavity of the first push rod motor 2b can be larger than the inner diameter of the inner cavity of the cylinder 3a, so that the moving speed of the piston of the first push rod motor 2b can be smaller than the moving speed of the piston of the cylinder 3b, and the stroke of the first push rod motor and the cylinder can be the same, so that the second pressing block 3b pushed by the cylinder 3a can press and fix the material to be detected before the first pressing block 2c pushed by the first push rod motor 2b. In the prior art, the first push rod motor 2b and the cylinder 3a work and are controlled independently, and the control logic is relatively complex. The present application only needs to control the first push rod motor 2b to synchronously control the cylinder 3a, thereby reducing the difficulty of designing the control logic.

[0026] Preferably, a first placement station 7 is provided on one side of the detection station 1b, and a second placement station 8 is provided on the other side of the detection station 1b. The first placement station 7 and the detection station 1b are both used to place materials to be detected, and the second placement station 8 is used to place materials that have been detected. The first placement station 7 includes a material receiving seat 7a, a material ejecting rod 7b, and a second push rod motor 7c. The material receiving seat 7a can be detachably arranged on the detection platform 1a by screws, and the second push rod motor 7c is arranged on the detection platform 1a. The material ejecting rod 7b is connected to the second push rod motor 7c, and the material ejecting rod 7b can move up and down under the drive of the second push rod motor 7c. The material receiving seat 7a includes an inclined first placement surface 7a-1 and a V-shaped second placement surface 7a-2. Several materials to be tested can be laid on the first placement surface 7a-1, and one material to be tested can be placed on the second placement surface 7a-2. When the materials to be tested in the second placement surface 7a-2 are removed by the ejector rod 7b, the materials to be tested on the first placement surface 7a-1 can roll along the inclined first placement surface and move to the second placement surface. An ejector rod 7b can be separately provided at the two ends of the material to be tested, and an inclined support plate 9 is provided on the end of the ejector rod 7b. When the ejector rod 7b moves upward so that the support plate 9 contacts the material to be tested, the material to be tested can roll along the inclined support plate 9 and enter the V-groove provided on the positioning platform 1b-1. Through the above-mentioned setting method, the materials to be tested can be continuously placed on the first placement station, and continuous loading can be achieved through the ejector rod 7b, thereby improving the detection efficiency of the fully automatic inspection equipment. The material receiving seat is provided with a placement hole, in which an electro-hydraulic telescopic rod is provided. When the ejecting rod moves upward, the electro-hydraulic telescopic rod can extend out of the placement hole to block the material to be detected on the first placement surface. When the ejecting rod moves downward, the electro-hydraulic telescopic rod can retract into the placement hole to cancel the blocking of the material to be detected. At this time, the material to be detected on the first placement surface 7a-1 can roll to the second placement surface 7a-2.

[0027] Preferably, a material taking block 11 is slidably provided on both ends of the first material pressing block 2c. For example, a slide rail and a small cylinder may be provided on the first material pressing block 2c, and the material taking block 11 is provided on the slide rail and connected to the small cylinder, so that the small cylinder can realize the movement of the material taking block 11 along the slide rail, and the extension direction of the slide rail is perpendicular to the axial direction of the material to be detected. An inclined material trough 12 is provided on the material taking block 11. Inclined means that the extension direction of the material trough 12 is not perpendicular to the detection platform 1a. A limit hole 13 is provided in the material trough 12, and a spring 14, a limit pin 15 and an electromagnet 16 are provided in the limit hole 13. The spring 14 is sleeved on the limit pin 15, and the limit pin 15 can slide along the limit hole 13. When the electromagnet is powered on, the limit pin 13 can be completely retracted into the limit hole 13, and the spring 14 is stretched. When the electromagnet 16 is powered off, the limit pin 13 re-extends from the limit hole 13 under the elastic force of the spring 14. When in use, when the first pressing block 2c presses and fixes the material to be detected, the material block 11 moves toward the material to be detected, so that the two ends of the material to be detected can be respectively embedded in two different material troughs 12. Then, the electromagnet is powered off, and the limit pin 15 extends out of the limit hole 13 to limit the material to be detected. When the first pressing block 2c2c moves upward, the material in the material trough that has been tested can move upward synchronously. When the first pressing block 2c moves to a certain height, the electromagnet 16 is powered on again, and the material that has been tested can be released from the limit and roll to the second placement station 8 based on its own gravity. Through the above-mentioned setting, the material on the detection station 1b does not need to be separately set up with other unloading mechanisms to realize unloading, and the first pressing block can realize the pressing and fixing function and the unloading function at the same time, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost and structural complexity of the equipment. In addition, during the upward movement of the first pressing block, the material is simultaneously moved out of the detection station at the first time, which can facilitate the entry of new materials to be detected into the detection station, thereby helping to improve the detection efficiency.

[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein by equivalents.
