[0048] Working principle:
[0049] The scheme is a detection device used on an engine production line, all engines are conveyed through a conveying belt mechanism 10, and the engine is manually started after reaching a detection area between a visual detection mechanism 20 and a vibration detection mechanism 30, and then the test can be performed;
[0050] Before detection, the engine is installed on the assembly line, various lines of the engine are connected according to the correct wiring diagram, actuators (such as fuel injectors, ignition coils, etc.) and communication interfaces with the detection device, and the fuel supply system and the air intake system are connected, and it is ensured that the connection is firm and leak-free. In addition, the cooling system and the lubricating system are also connected to ensure normal cooling and lubrication.
[0051] The ignition switch is turned on, but the engine is not started, and the ECU is self-checked. After the self-checking is completed, the engine is started. If the engine cannot be started, it is necessary to check whether the ignition system, the fuel system, the air intake system and the like have faults, such as whether the spark plug sparks, whether the fuel injector sprays oil, whether the air filter is blocked and the like.
[0052] The support vertical rods 101 are arranged on both sides of the conveying belt mechanism 10 in staggered manner, and the screw rod driving motor 102 on each support vertical rod 101 is screwed with the moving block 103 through the threaded rod 104, the threaded rod 104 can drive the moving block 103 to move up and down in the sliding groove, so as to realize the up and down displacement of the components connected with the moving block 103.
[0053] The working principle of the visual detection mechanism 20 is as follows: in the visual detection mechanism 20, the mounting frame 201 is fixed on the moving block 103 of the support vertical rod 101 through the mounting seat 205, and can realize up and down movement. The mounting frame 201 has a track panel on the top and a limiting rod 206 on the right side, and the sliding machine box 202 is slidingly installed on the limiting rod 206. The machine box driving motor 203 is installed on the top left side of the sliding machine box 202, and can drive the sliding machine box 202 to move forward and backward along the track panel. The visual sensor 204 on the right lower side of the sliding machine box 202 is inclined downward and aligned with the conveying belt mechanism 10, so that the visual sensor 204 can not only displace up and down under the driving of the screw rod driving motor 102, but also can displace forward and backward under the driving of the machine box driving motor 203, so as to realize the visual detection of the engine piston in all directions.
[0054] The visual sensor 204 can collect images of the engine piston part and obtain appearance information of the piston, such as whether the surface has wear, crack, scratch, and size precision, shape, etc. of the piston. The collected image data is transmitted to the corresponding processing system, and the image is analyzed and processed through the pre-set algorithm and standard. For example, the edge detection algorithm is used to identify the contour of the piston, and the size of the piston is judged whether it meets the requirements by comparing with the standard model; the image recognition technology is used to detect the defects on the surface of the piston, such as the length, width and other parameters of the crack, so as to realize the detection of the appearance state of the engine piston.
[0055] The working principle of the vibration detection mechanism 30 is as follows: one end of the hydraulic clamp 301 of the vibration detection mechanism 30 is fixed on the rear moving block 103 and can displace up and down with the moving block 103. Two mounting rods 302 are symmetrically arranged on the front side of the hydraulic clamp 301, and track rods 303 are arranged on the upper and lower ends of the front side of the mounting rods 302. The hydraulic clamp 301 can expand to the left and right sides or contract inward, driving the track rods 303 to adjust the clamping distance to adapt to the clamping of engines of different specifications. A plurality of vibration detection heads 304 are sleeved on the track rods 303, the sliding block 304-1 is sleeved on the track rod 303, the sliding block drive motor 304-5 at the top is in contact with the track rod 303 through the driving wheel 304-6, and the sliding block 304-1 can be driven to move along the track rod 303 to change the detection position. The electric telescopic rod 304-2 on the opposite side of the sliding block 304-1 is connected with the detection panel 304-3, and the electric telescopic rod 304-2 can push the detection panel 304-3 to extend or contract to realize secondary clamping adjustment; the vibration sensor 304-4 is arranged in the inner cavity of the detection panel 304-3, and the sound wave sensor 304-7 is arranged on the inner side face above. When detecting, the detection panel 304-3 is tightly attached to the outer wall of the engine piston position, and the vibration and sound information of the engine piston can be detected.
[0056] The vibration sensor 304-4 on the detection panel 304-3 is used for detecting the vibration signal generated when the engine piston operates, and the sound wave sensor 304-7 on the inner side face above can detect the sound wave signal generated when the piston operates. The obtained vibration and sound wave signals are transmitted to the signal processing system, and the signals are processed and analyzed by methods such as frequency spectrum analysis and time domain analysis. For example, the frequency, amplitude and other parameters of the vibration signal are analyzed to determine whether the running state of the piston is normal. When the piston has problems such as wear and excessive gap, the vibration characteristics will change, and by comparing with the vibration signal in the normal state, the potential failure of the piston can be found in time. At the same time, the sound wave signal can also provide some information about the piston operation, such as the friction between the piston and the cylinder wall, to further assist in judging the running state of the piston.
