Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of food packaging and detection, and in particular to a dual-camera multi-viewing angle material analyzer. Background Art
[0002] In the field of food packaging and testing, after the materials are vacuum-sealed, they need to be inspected for leaks, damage, or foreign matter impurities. X-ray detection technology can detect foreign matter such as metal, glass, ceramics, stone, bone, plastic, etc. in food, but foreign matter similar to the material of the food cannot be detected and can only rely on visual camera detection technology.
[0003] For small or flat materials, in general, one visual camera can basically collect and obtain their key feature information. However, for larger materials, especially packaged food materials, which are generally three-dimensional, only one visual camera cannot obtain their complete feature information. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to install multiple visual cameras, capture image information of different positions of the material from multiple angles, and then transmit it to the data processing system for identification and analysis. The more visual cameras are installed, the more complex the system is, the higher the installation accuracy requirements and the greater the difficulty of adjustment, and the more difficult the image data processing is.
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a material detection and analysis system that can obtain relatively complete image information of the material using only two sets of cameras. Summary of the invention
[0005] In order to solve the technical problems raised in the background technology, the present invention provides a dual-camera multi-viewing angle material analyzer.
[0006] The present invention is implemented by the following technical scheme: a dual-camera multi-view material analyzer, including a material input module, a main frame, a camera module, a lighting and reflector module, a material slide, a finished material conveying module, an abnormal material conveying module,
[0007] The material input module is used to receive the material, separate the material at a differential speed, and then input it into the material chute;
[0008] The camera module includes two sets of camera components fixed to the main frame;
[0009] The lighting and reflector module includes a reflector, a lampshade shell and a lamp group; two groups of reflectors are provided, and each group of reflectors cooperates with a group of camera components to form an imaging system to realize the collection of material image information within the vertical central axis field of view; the lamp group is arranged and installed on the lampshade shell to form an approximately arc-shaped lighting to increase lighting uniformity, eliminate reflections and reduce material shadows;
[0010] The finished material conveying module is used to convey the finished material, and when the system identifies and sends an abnormal material rejection signal, the abnormal material is rejected to the abnormal material conveying module.
[0011] As a further improvement of the above scheme, the material slide includes a slide support and a material slide track, wherein: the slide support is installed on the main frame, and the material slide track can be adjusted in height according to the material conditions to control the speed of entering the image acquisition area.
[0012] As a further improvement of the above scheme, the material input module includes a support frame and a material conveying module. The material conveying module is mainly composed of a conveyor belt assembly and a drive motor. The front of the conveyor belt assembly is connected to the material slide track of the material slideway, and the rear is connected to the material delivery port. After the material falls into the belt, it is accelerated, thereby separating the intervals.
[0013] As a further improvement of the above scheme, the finished material conveying module is mainly composed of a conveyor belt assembly, a drive motor, and a rejection mechanism. The front of the conveyor belt assembly is connected to a receiving hopper or a receiving basket, and the rear of the conveyor belt assembly is connected to a material sliding track. The rejection mechanism is installed on one side of the conveyor belt. When the system identifies and sends an abnormal material rejection signal, the rejection mechanism pushes the abnormal material into the abnormal material conveying module.
[0014] As a further improvement of the above solution, the abnormal material conveying module is mainly composed of a conveyor belt assembly and a drive motor. The abnormal materials enter the conveyor belt through the conveyor disc of the rejection mechanism and are then conveyed to the abnormal material hopper or abnormal material basket.
[0015] The dual-camera multi-view material analyzer of the present invention includes an analyzer body and a material conveying line body. The analyzer body is provided with a main frame for installing a material slide, a lighting and reflector module, a camera module, and a rejection module. The lighting and reflector module and the camera module constitute an image acquisition system. By combining two groups of cameras and multiple groups of reflectors arranged at different angles, the complete key image information of the material surrounding the upper circle can be obtained, and the function of obtaining the complete image information of the surrounding circle in the original scheme that requires more groups of cameras is realized. At the same time, the design of the lighting module effectively eliminates reflections and shadows, making the imaging effect better. When the material enters the material slide from the conveying line body one after another and passes through the camera field of view, the system obtains the material image information and forms a processing signal after processing and judgment. When the material passes through the lower rejection module, it is processed according to the processing signal, and the abnormal material is rejected to the foreign material conveying line body, and the normal material is transmitted along the original conveying line body. That is, the analyzer realizes the image acquisition and recognition of the material, the rejection of the abnormal material, and has a high degree of automation, which is suitable for a variety of material sampling and detection occasions.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] The present invention can obtain complete image information around a large material by using only two groups of cameras and a reflector group, and the system configuration and adjustment are simple; the arc light source arrangement proposed in the present invention makes the illumination more uniform, eliminates reflections and imaging shadows, and enables accurate material identification and removal.
