[0060] The fixing component is arranged on the base 1 and is used to fix the gear to be detected;
[0061] The controller is electrically connected to the driving component and the detection component.
[0062] It should be noted that:
[0063] One end of the swing rod 16 is rotatably connected to the annular frame 5, and the other end is slidably arranged in the preset annular groove 501 of the annular frame 5. In order to facilitate determining the angle between the two swing rods 16, scale lines can be arranged on the circumference of the annular frame 5. Further, in order to ensure that the swing rod 16 will not move after adjustment, a fixing member should be provided, for example, a bolt can be used. It is also possible to provide a certain frictional force between the annular groove 501 and the swing rod 16, as long as it can ensure that it will not move easily.
[0064] When the gear detection device of the present invention is in use, the gear to be detected is placed on the base 1; the fixing component is used to fix the gear to be detected; the controller controls the height adjustment unit 3, the rotation adjustment unit, and the radial adjustment unit in the driving component to cooperate with the tooth surface detection unit, the tooth pitch detection unit, and the end face detection unit in the detection component to complete the tooth surface detection, tooth pitch detection, and end face detection of the gear. By providing the detection component, the driving component, the fixing component, and the controller, and with the cooperation of each component, the tooth surface detection, tooth pitch detection, and end face detection are integrated into a set of detection devices, simplifying the detection process and improving the detection efficiency and accuracy.
[0065] Please combine Figures 1-7 , and specifically describe each component of the present invention;
[0066] First of all, the base 1 is a rectangular platform, made of high-strength steel, with anti-slip pads at the bottom for stabilizing the device; the bottom plate is a rectangular steel plate with a thickness of 10 mm, and the surface is treated with rust prevention; the anti-slip pads are made of rubber and are pasted on the bottom of the bottom plate for increasing friction; the adjusting feet are adjustable bolts installed at the four corners of the bottom plate for adjusting the levelness of the base 1.
[0067] Secondly, the support frame 2 includes columns and crossbeams; the columns are vertically fixed on the base 1, and the crossbeams are perpendicular to the tops of the columns; the lifting plate 4 is installed at one end of the crossbeam away from the column through the height adjustment component.
[0068] Furthermore, the tooth surface detection unit includes two tooth profile templates 8 and an image collector I.
[0069] Two tooth profile templates 8; the two side surfaces of the tooth profile template 8 match the tooth profile surfaces of the gear to be detected, and coating cotton is installed on both side surfaces; the two tooth profile templates 8 are respectively detachably installed on the two swing rods 16; the coating cotton of one of the tooth profile templates 8 is infiltrated with a dyeing agent, and the coating cotton of the other tooth profile template 8 is infiltrated with a cleaning agent;
[0070] The image collector I is installed on the tooth profile template 8 where the cleaning agent is located for collecting images of the tooth surface.
[0071] It should be noted that:
[0072] The detachable connection method between the tooth profile template 8 and the swing rod 16 is not limited. For example, it can be connected by snap fasteners, bolts, bonding, etc., as long as detachable connection can be achieved, and it will not be elaborated here.
[0073] The staining agent and cleaning agent used in the present invention are used in combination; the staining agent is mainly used to stain the tooth surface to magnify the defects on the tooth surface, such as depressions or protrusions. Through the attachment of the staining agent, the subsequent image comparison results will be more obvious; the cleaning agent is used to eliminate the color of the staining agent and restore the tooth surface to normal. When there is a crack on the tooth surface, the staining agent will enter the crack, and at this time, the cleaning agent cannot decompose the staining agent in the crack. Therefore, it can be judged whether there is a crack during image acquisition.
[0074] When detecting the tooth surface, the staining agent is attached to the tooth surface through a coating cotton, and then the tooth surface image is collected. By comparing the collected image with the standard image, through color difference analysis and similarity analysis, the tooth surface condition can be judged; for example, if there is a depression, there may be a place on the image where the color is not attached. If there is a protrusion, there will also be an obvious difference between the image and the standard image. If the tooth surface is uneven and tilted, there will also be an obvious difference between the image and the standard image. The cleaning agent is attached to the tooth surface through the coating cotton to decompose the color, and it can be judged whether there is a crack on the tooth surface in the image.
[0075] In addition, the tooth pitch detection unit includes a distance sensor; the distance sensor is installed on the tooth profile template 8 where the graphic collector is located and is used to measure the distance from the tooth surface.
[0076] Secondly, please combine Figures 5-6 , the end face detection unit includes an end face template 15; the end face template 15 is horizontally arranged, and the upper end face is installed at the bottom of the annular frame 5, and the lower end face is attached with pigment; an image collector II is arranged on one side of the end face template 15; the image collector II is used to collect the end face image of the gear to be detected.
[0077] It should be noted that there should be no interference between the end face template 15 in the end face detection unit and the swing rod 16. In specific operations, an L-shaped swing rod 16 can be used to avoid interference.
[0078] As the core structure in the present invention, the controller is used for:
[0079] Ⅰ. Control the height adjustment unit 3 to work, drive the lifting plate 4 to descend a preset height one;
[0080] Control the rotation adjustment unit to work, drive the annular frame 5 to rotate a preset number of turns; then control the height adjustment unit 3 to reset, and control the image collector II to collect the first end face image;
[0081] Control the height adjustment unit 3 to work, driving the lifting plate 4 to descend by a preset height two; then control the rotation adjustment unit to work, driving the annular frame 5 to rotate by a preset number of turns; then control the height adjustment unit 3 to reset, and control the image collector two to collect the end face image two; where; the preset height one is less than the preset height two, and the preset height two is the distance between the end face template 15 and the end face of the gear to be detected;
[0082] Judge whether there are parts with pigment color in the end face image one and / or whether there are parts without attached pigment in the end face image two. If so, it is determined that there are defects on the gear end face, and the end face detection is completed.
[0083] It should be noted that the preset number of turns can be one turn, two turns, etc., without special requirements; the difference between the preset height one and the preset height two is set according to the allowable error of the end face of the gear to be detected. For example, if the flatness error of the end face of the gear to be detected can be 0.1 cm, then the difference between the preset height one and the preset height two is 0.1 cm.
[0084] Ⅱ. Control the radial adjustment unit to work, so that the two tooth profile templates 8 enter the tooth grooves of the gear to be detected; then control the rotation adjustment unit to work, driving the annular frame 5 to rotate in one direction by a preset angle, so that the dye on the coating cotton adheres to the tooth surface; then control the rotation adjustment unit to reset first and then rotate in the reverse direction by the preset angle so that the dye on the coating cotton adheres to the other tooth surface of the tooth groove; finally, control the rotation adjustment unit to reset first, and then control the radial adjustment unit to reset;
[0085] Control the rotation adjustment unit to work. After driving the annular frame 5 to rotate by a tooth groove angle, control the radial adjustment unit to work, so that the two tooth profile templates 8 enter the next tooth groove; control the image collector one to collect the images of the two tooth surfaces after dyeing in the tooth groove respectively, and compare the images with the preset standard images. If the similarity is lower than the preset value, it is determined that there are defects on the corresponding tooth surface;
[0086] Among them, when controlling the rotation adjustment unit to work for tooth surface dyeing in a new tooth groove, the coating cotton coated with cleaning agent will clean and decompose the color on the dyed tooth surface, and before the tooth profile template 8 disengages from the tooth groove, control the image collector one to collect the tooth surface image again, and judge whether there is a color aggregation area in the image. If so, it is judged that there is a risk of crack defect on the tooth surface, and the tooth surface detection is completed.
[0087] It should be noted that the preset angle is determined according to the gear to be detected and the rack template, and it is sufficient to satisfy the attachment of the coating cotton to the tooth surface.
[0088] Ⅲ. During the tooth surface detection process, when the tooth profile template 8 first enters the tooth groove, control the distance sensor to detect the distance between it and the tooth surface of the tooth groove; compare the detected distances in each tooth groove to form a data set. If there is a difference in the data set that exceeds a preset difference, it is determined that there is an uneven flaw in the tooth pitch, and the tooth pitch detection is completed.
[0089] It should be noted that the preset difference is determined based on empirical values.
[0090] Furthermore, in order to avoid collisions between the rack template and the base 1, please refer to Figure 5 , an auxiliary groove 101 is provided on the base 1 to prevent interference between the rack template and the base 1. At the same time, the auxiliary groove 101 can also collect the staining agent and the cleaning agent.
[0091] Of course, in some embodiments of the present invention, the detection component may further include a tooth top circle detection unit; the tooth top circle detection unit includes a top circle template, which is installed at one end of the tooth profile template 8 close to the center of the annular frame 5, and a pigment is attached to the top circle template;
[0092] The controller is further configured to:
[0093] Ⅳ. Control the radial adjustment unit to work so that the two tooth profile templates 8 move a preset distance one;
[0094] Control the rotation adjustment unit to work to drive the annular frame 5 to rotate a preset number of turns; then control the radial adjustment unit to reset, and observe whether there is color on the tooth top circle of the gear;
[0095] Control the radial adjustment unit to work so that the two tooth profile templates 8 move a preset distance two; then control the rotation adjustment unit to work to drive the annular frame 5 to rotate a preset number of turns; then control the radial adjustment unit to reset, and observe whether there is color on the entire tooth top circle of the gear; where; the preset distance one is less than the preset distance two, and the preset distance two is the distance between the top circle template and the tooth top circle of the gear to be detected;
[0096] If there is color on the tooth top circle when the radial adjustment unit is reset for the first time and / or there is not color on the entire tooth top circle when the radial adjustment unit is reset for the second time, if so, it is determined that there is a flaw in the tooth top circle of the gear, and the tooth top circle detection is completed.
[0097] It should be noted that the detection of the tooth top circle is similar to the end face detection. For example, the setting of the preset distance one and the preset distance two is also similar to the above.
[0098] The height adjustment unit 3 and the radial adjustment unit in the present invention are hydraulic cylinders or hydraulic push rods, and it is sufficient to be able to achieve the adjustment. Please refer to Figures 1-2 , the height adjustment unit 3 is located between the cross beam and the lifting plate 4. Please refer to Figure 7, the radial adjustment unit is located within the chute 1601 of the swing rod 16 and is connected to the slide rod 17.
[0099] Please refer to Figures 1-6 , the rotation adjustment unit includes a stepper motor 18; the stepper motor 18 is installed on the lifting plate 4, and its output shaft is drivingly connected to the annular frame 5. Specifically, a cross-shaped connecting frame 7 is installed at the upper end of the annular frame 5, and the output shaft of the stepper motor 18 is drivingly connected to the connecting frame 7. Considering stability, connecting rods 6 can also be installed at the four corners of the connecting frame 7, and the upper ends of the connecting rods 6 are slidably arranged within the preset rotation slots 401 on the bottom surface of the lifting plate 4.
[0100] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the fixing component of the present invention includes a pressing block 9 and a receiving block 10. The pressing block 9 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the end face template 15. The receiving block 10 is located directly below the pressing block 9 and is installed on the base 1 through a return spring 14. A plurality of connecting rods 11 are hinged to the side wall of the receiving block 10, and the other ends of the connecting rods 11 are all hinged to an adjusting block 12; the adjusting block 12 is slidably installed within the preset adjusting slot 102 on the base 1. A clamping plate 13 for clamping the gear is installed on the top of each adjusting block 12. During use, the shaft hole of the spur gear is sleeved outside the plurality of clamping plates 13. When the height adjustment component drives the lifting plate 4 and the end face template 15 to descend, the pressing block 9 presses the receiving block 10, thereby driving the adjusting block 12 to move within the adjusting slot 102, causing the clamping plates 13 to expand outward, realizing the centering fixation of the shaft hole of the spur gear.
[0101] In one embodiment of the present invention, a gear detection method is also disclosed, including the following steps:
[0102] Place the gear to be detected on the base 1;

[0105] This detection method has the same beneficial effects as the above detection device and will not be elaborated here.
[0106] The above has described a detailed description of an embodiment of the present invention, but the content described is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention and cannot be considered as limiting the scope of implementation of the present invention. Any equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the application of the present invention should still fall within the scope covered by the claims of the present invention.
