Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] Defects in the transparent paper packaging of cigarettes (such as loose packs, wrinkles, breaks, foreign objects, etc.) directly affect the brand appearance consistency and material consumption. The traditional method mostly uses multi-stage industrial cameras to take images of the six sides of the cigarette pack respectively. However, the visual windows on the end faces (the narrow left and right sides) are severely blocked by mechanisms such as guard plates and scraping tables, and imaging must be performed at close range in a narrow gap, which is prone to strong reflections and uneven exposure, resulting in frequent missed detections and false detections. In severe cases, manual sampling and review are required, reducing production capacity and quality control levels. At the same time, existing six-sided detection systems often require adding large optical machine structures to the packaging machine, which occupy a large space, have a long debugging cycle, and interfere with the original machine production rhythm and the operator's work station. Therefore, the industry urgently needs a new vision detection solution that occupies a small space, minimally modifies the host machine, and can stably complete end face defect detection at high production rhythms.

The "in one embodiment" that appears in different places in this specification does not all refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an individual or selectively mutually exclusive embodiment with other embodiments.
[0020] Thirdly, the present invention is described in detail in conjunction with schematic diagrams. When detailing the embodiments of the present invention, for the convenience of explanation, the cross-sectional views showing the device structure will be locally enlarged out of the general proportion, and the schematic diagrams are only examples and should not limit the scope of protection of the present invention herein. In addition, in actual production, three-dimensional spatial dimensions including length, width and depth should be included.
[0021] Embodiment 1 Referring to Figures 1 to 7 , this embodiment provides a full six-sided detection system for the appearance packaging quality of cigarette pack transparent paper, including a conveying platform 100. The conveying platform 100 includes a straight rail 101 and a disc 102. Guard plates 103 are arranged on both sides of the straight rail 101. A grasping disc 104 is arranged in the disc 102. The cigarette pack 300 is conveyed to the disc 102 through the straight rail 101, and the cigarette pack 300 is driven by the grasping disc 104 to move circumferentially on the disc. A transparent frame plate 101a is arranged on the straight rail 101, and a transparent enclosing plate 102a is arranged on the outer side surface of the disc 102; A detection module 200, the detection module 200 includes a first camera assembly 201 arranged obliquely above the transparent frame plate 101a, a second camera assembly 202 arranged obliquely below the transparent frame plate 101a, a third camera assembly 203 and a fourth camera assembly 204 arranged on both sides of the connection between the straight rail 101 and the disc 102, a fifth camera assembly 205 arranged above the disc 102 and facing the connection between the straight rail 101 and the disc 102, and a sixth camera assembly 206 arranged on the outer side of the disc 102 and facing the transparent enclosing plate 102a; A control module, the control module includes a programmable logic controller and a vision industrial control host. The programmable logic controller is connected to each camera assembly of the detection module 200 and controls the work to collect images. The vision industrial control host is connected to each camera assembly of the detection module 200 and receives the collected graphics for further processing and analysis.
[0022] The transparent enclosing plate 102a is a high-transparency quartz glass sheet fixed on the disc through a metal frame.
[0023] It should be noted that both the first camera assembly 201 and the second camera assembly 202 are arranged facing the transparent frame plate 101a. The first camera assembly 201 is used to take pictures and perform identification and detection on the top surface of the cigarette pack passing through the transparent frame plate 101a, and the second camera assembly 202 is used to take pictures and perform identification and detection on the bottom surface of the cigarette pack through the transparent frame plate 101a. The third camera assembly 203 and the fourth camera assembly 204 use the narrow-line scanning imaging vision detection method to detect the left and right end faces of the cigarette pack. The fifth camera assembly 205 is used to detect the front side of the cigarette pack. When the cigarette pack enters the disk 102 and is driven by the grasping disk 104 to the transparent enclosure 102a, the rear side of the cigarette pack faces the transparent enclosure 102a. At this time, the sixth camera assembly 206 is used to detect the rear side of the cigarette pack.
[0024] This system further includes a rejection component. The rejection component includes an electrically controlled lever arranged on the moving path of the cigarette pack. Specifically, the electrically controlled lever can be arranged on the disk, beside the transparent enclosure 102a.
[0025] A transparent paper packaging runner is arranged at the left end of the straight rail 101. The conveying system of the transparent paper packaging runner and the straight rail is a prior art, so the structure of the transparent paper packaging runner is not shown in the figure. The transparent paper packaging runner moves to push the cigarette pack from one end of the straight rail 101 to the other end and onto the disk 102.
[0026] Specifically, the transparent paper packaging runner periodically places the cigarette packs one by one at the end of the straight rail, pushes the cigarette packs intermittently to the right. A conveyor belt is arranged on the straight rail 101 to convey the cigarette packs to the right. A photoelectric sensor is arranged on the side at the intersection of the straight rail 101 and the disk 102 to detect whether a cigarette pack arrives at the edge part. After a cigarette pack arrives, the pressing rod 107 arranged above the straight rail 101 is triggered to press down to hold the cigarette pack at the edge, and at the same time, the transmission of the cigarette pack is stopped, and the fifth camera assembly 205 is used to take pictures and detect its front side.
[0027] One end of the pressing rod 107 is pivotally connected and fixed to the frame above the straight rail 101. The right side of the pressing rod 107 can be pressed down. A spring is arranged above the pressing rod 107 so that it can move up and return to its original position after being pressed down. The control of the pressing down of the pressing rod 107 can be achieved by the pressing down of an electrically controlled push rod.
[0028] Furthermore, the pressing rod 107 is in a horizontal state in its initial state, arranged above the cigarette pack, and used to limit the position of the top of the cigarette pack.
[0029] This system allows each cigarette pack to stay at its position for a short time, so as to have sufficient time to perform image acquisition on its six sides.
[0030] A circular groove is provided on the disc 102, and the turntable 102b is arranged in the circular groove. The turntable 102b is controlled by a motor to rotate. The motor, the electric control lever, and the push rod are all connected to the programmable controller to control the movement of the cigarette packs. At the same time, when an abnormality is detected, the programmable controller controls the electric control lever to act when the defective cigarette pack moves to the corresponding position on the disc 102, and the defective cigarette pack is removed.
[0031] Refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 , and the specific working principle is as follows: When the conveying channel of the cigarette packs conveys the cigarette packs into the imaging field of view of the intelligent vision probe; then the intelligent vision imaging and image acquisition module collects the images into the internal of the vision industrial control computer; the collected original images are preprocessed by using image processing technology to improve the image quality, and the required feature quantities are extracted from them; finally, the intelligent vision algorithm tool is used to classify and sort the extracted feature quantities to complete the detection of the system; the programmable signal control module outputs the detection result signal of the defective cigarette packs to the servo host to perform automatic removal.
[0032] Through the programmable signal control module, the internal phase signal of the main machine system of the packaging machine is used to execute triggering and photographing. The signal triggering is not interfered by various external signals, and the signal triggering is stable and accurate; the installation positions, structures, etc. of each vision component are reasonably designed and easy to install; it does not interfere with the production operations of the machine operators and will not cause the detection device to fail due to accidental contact by human actions.
[0033] On one side of the straight rail 101, there is a side wall 105 inside the machine. The first camera assembly 201 is fixed on the side wall 105 inside the machine. The first camera assembly 201 is arranged facing the transparent frame plate 101a. On the side wall 105 inside the machine, there are also a first lighting lamp 105a and a second lighting lamp 105b. The first lighting lamp 105a illuminates the position above the transparent frame plate 101a, that is, the upper surface of the cigarette pack, and the second lighting lamp 105b illuminates the position below the transparent frame plate 101a, that is, the bottom surface of the cigarette pack.
[0034] The first camera assembly 201 is rotatably fixed on the side wall 105 inside the machine through a support rod to facilitate adjusting the angle of the first camera assembly 201 and aligning it with the upper side of the cigarette pack.
[0035] The second camera assembly 202 is fixed obliquely below the transparent frame plate 101a through a fixing frame. The fixing frame is also a structure that can adjust the angle of the second camera assembly 202. The fixing structure of the fourth camera assembly 204 can be referred to.
[0036] On the other side of the straight rail 101, there is a cross frame 106. On one side of the cross frame 106, there is a first side plate 106a, and a vertical plate 106b is fixed on the first side plate 106a.
[0037] The vertical plate 106b is on the first side plate 106a through bolts.
[0038] On one side of the vertical plate 106b, a first extension plate 106c is fixed by bolts. On the other side of the vertical plate 106b, a second extension plate 106d is provided. Both the first extension plate 106c and the second extension plate 106d are "L"-shaped plates.
[0039] The third camera assembly 203 is also fixed on the other side of the narrow slit opposite to the fourth camera assembly 204 through a connecting plate with an adjustable angle.
[0040] The fourth camera assembly 204 includes a fixed frame plate 204a. On the fixed frame plate 204a, a first round hole 204b and a first arc notch 204c are provided. The center of the first arc notch 204c coincides with the center of the first round hole 204b.
[0041] Two fixing holes are provided on the first extension plate 106c. One of the fixing holes coincides with the first round hole 204b and is connected by bolts. The other fixing hole corresponds to the first arc notch 204c and is fixed by bolts. In this way, by adjusting the position of the fixing hole in the first arc notch 204c, the orientation of the fourth camera assembly 204 is adjusted. During the adjustment process, the fourth camera assembly 204 rotates around the first round hole 204b.
[0042] The sixth camera assembly 206 is fixed on the second extension plate 106d in the same fixing manner.
[0043] The fourth camera assembly 204 further includes a camera body 204d. A gusset plate 204e is fixed to the back of the camera body 204d by bolts. The gusset plate 204e is also fixed to the side of the fixed frame plate 204a by bolts.
[0044] The gusset plate 204e is also an "L"-shaped plate.
[0045] Two threaded holes are provided on the side of the fifth camera assembly 205. Bolts 205a are provided in the threaded holes. Above the disc 102, a hanging plate 108 is provided. Two second arc notches 108a with the same center are provided on the hanging plate 108. The bolts 205a pass through the second arc notches 108a to connect the fifth camera assembly 205 and the hanging plate 108.
[0046] It should be noted that the hanging plate 108 is connected to the device provided on the top of the disc 102. On the existing cigarette pack packaging line, a frame is also provided on the top of the disc 102. The hanging plate 108 is connected to it, and the fifth camera assembly 205 is suspended at the connection of the straight rail 101 and the disc 102 facing the disc 102.
[0047] A triangular stop block 103a is provided at the end of the guard plate 103. A turntable 102b is provided on the disc 102. Fixed plates 102c are arranged in an array around the turntable 102b. A scraping table 102d extends outward from the fixed plate 102c. A clamping groove 102e is formed between the scraping tables 102d. The cigarette pack is placed in the clamping groove 102e and moves. The distance between the end of the scraping table 102d and the triangular stop block 103a forms a narrow slit. The third camera assembly 203 and the fourth camera assembly 204 are arranged facing the narrow slit.
[0048] The present invention can facilitate the transformation of existing packaging equipment, add detection devices such as cameras and lighting lamps to achieve six-sided detection. In particular, the narrow-line line-scanning imaging vision detection method is used to detect the left and right end faces of the cigarette pack, so that there is no need to separately establish a detection line to detect the end of the cigarette pack alone.
[0049] The first camera assembly 201, the second camera assembly 202, the third camera assembly 203, the fourth camera assembly 204, the fifth camera assembly 205 and the sixth camera assembly 206 all adopt intelligent vision imaging probes and can integrate lighting sources.
