[0022] See also Figures 1 to 6 , embodiments of the present invention include:

[0023] A five-axis CCD small hole detection machine includes: a computer 2, an automatic detection module and a control cabinet 3, a protective cover 4 is installed on the top of the control cabinet 3, a detection platform 301 and a back plate 302 are provided on the top of the control cabinet 3 inside the protective cover 4, the back plate 302 and the detection platform 301 are perpendicular to each other, a Y-axis adjustment screw is installed on the detection platform 301, which can drive the detection platform 301 to translate along the Y-axis direction as a whole, and the maximum translation distance is 150mm, the automatic detection module is installed on the detection platform 301 and the back plate 302, the computer 2 is installed on the outside of the control cabinet 3, and the signal of the automatic detection module is connected to the computer 2.

The CCD camera 508 is installed vertically downward on the camera frame. The Z-axis screw drive mechanism can drive the camera moving seat 5016 to drive the CCD camera 508 to move up and down through the camera frame, and the maximum movement distance is 250mm; the workpiece driving submodule includes an angle table 502, an X-axis screw motor 501, a mounting bracket 503 and a workpiece clamping seat. The angle table 502 is installed on the surface of the detection platform 301, and the X-axis screw motor 501 is installed at the bottom of the angle table 502, which can drive the angle table 502 reciprocates along the X-axis of the table top of the detection platform 301, and the maximum distance of the reciprocating motion is 500mm. The mounting bracket 503 is installed on the angle table 502. The mounting bracket 503 is a right-angled trapezoidal structure. The side of the right-angled trapezoidal structure facing the back plate 302 is an inclined surface, and the bottom angle corresponding to the inclined surface is 75°. The workpiece clamping seat is fixed on the inclined surface of the mounting bracket 503. The workpiece clamping seat includes a rotating motor 506 and an internal support clamp 507. The power output end of the rotating motor 506 is provided with a clamp fixing position 5063, and the internal support clamp 507 can be installed on the clamp fixing position 5063.Through this structure, after the circular workpiece 1 is mounted on the internal support fixture 507, the angle of the angle table 502 can be adjusted according to the required inclination angle of the small hole in the workpiece 1, and the X-axis screw motor 501 can be adjusted at the same time, so that the optical path 509 of the CCD camera 508 can be aligned with the inclined hole on the workpiece 1 so that the optical path 509 can enter the inclined hole, and then the focal length of the CCD camera 508 is adjusted by the Z-axis drive motor 5014 to make the image of the CCD camera 508 clearer.

[0024] The CCD camera 508 is mounted with a 45° beam splitter lens. This 45° beam splitter lens has two optical paths 509: a horizontal optical path 509 and a vertical optical path 509. The split ratio of these two optical paths 509 is 5:5. Each optical path 509 corresponds to a backlight source. The horizontal optical path 509 corresponds to an upper backlight source 504, which is mounted on top of the mounting bracket 503. The vertical optical path 509 corresponds to a lower backlight source 505, which is mounted on the surface of the detection platform 301 directly below the Z-axis screw drive mechanism. The camera moving base 5016 is also equipped with two NG marking mechanisms: a first NG marking mechanism and a second NG marking mechanism. The first NG marking mechanism aligns with the horizontal optical path 509 and includes a first NG cylinder 5011 and a first NG marker 5012, which is secured to a pen holder at the top of the telescopic rod of the first NG cylinder 5012.

In this manner, during actual inspection, the computer 2 can switch the optical paths 509 of the 45° beam splitter lens as needed to capture image information of the workpiece 1. Each optical path 509 is equipped with a corresponding backlight source to open up its corresponding field of view, reducing the impact of external light on image acquisition and improving inspection accuracy. Furthermore, the two NG marking mechanisms can promptly mark problematic locations based on the image detection results, facilitating subsequent repairs.

[0025] The rotary motor 506 is a DD motor. A fixture fixing portion 5063 is mounted on the top of the power output shaft of the DD motor. The fixture fixing portion 5063 is capable of rotating with the power output shaft. Eight positioning bolt holes are evenly distributed around the fixture fixing portion 5063. The internal support fixture 507 is available in various sizes. Each size of internal support fixture 507 includes an internal support head 5071 and a support plate 5072. The internal support head 5071 is fixed to the center of the support plate 5072. Bolt holes are provided in the middle of the support plate 5072, surrounding the fixed position of the internal support head 5071 and corresponding to the positioning bolt holes on the fixture fixing portion 5063. A positioning sleeve 5062 is also mounted on the housing 5061 of the DD motor. The positioning sleeve 5062 is sleeved around the outside of the fixture fixing portion 5063. The DD motor is used because it has high torque and does not require a speed reducer. This allows the internal support fixture 507 to be directly mounted on the fixture fixing portion 5063 of the DD motor. Computer 2 can conveniently control the rotation of the DD motor to precisely position and photograph the workpiece at different locations. Positioning sleeve 5062, mounted outside fixture fixing portion 5063, improves the stability of fixture fixing portion 5063's rotation and reduces radial vibration.

[0026] The present invention adds two rotating axes based on the angle table 502 and the DD motor position on the basis of the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis of the conventional small hole detection machine. These two rotating axes, combined with the original X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis motion modes, can significantly improve the posture adjustment range of the workpiece 1 to be inspected, thereby meeting the requirements of small hole detection on different types of circular workpieces 1. The workpiece 1 can be tilted in the corresponding direction as needed, so that the small hole at the detection position can be aligned with the optical path 509 of the CCD camera 508 lens, which is convenient for the CCD camera 508 to collect the detection image. Moreover, in actual use, the high-resolution black and white CCD camera 508 used is combined with an ultra-long focal length spectroscopic dual-field customized lens and two backlight sources at different angles to switch the camera's field of view at any time as needed. The taken photos are immediately sent to the computer 2 for judgment, and the computer 2 can control the corresponding NG marker according to the judgment result to automatically mark the position where the small hole diameter is NG or there are burrs. Moreover, as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the present invention has a plurality of different specifications of internal support fixtures 507, which can be matched with different internal support fixtures according to the type of workpiece 1 to be measured. When the internal support fixture 507 is switched, only the hexagonal wrench 6 is needed to complete all disassembly and installation actions.
