Description

With consumers' increasing demands for vehicle quality and the automotive industry's increasingly stringent quality control measures, higher standards are being set for the inspection of appearance defects of automotive luminous logos. This requires not only the detection of physical defects such as surface damage and scratches, but also the precise detection of optical defects such as uneven brightness and abnormal luminous areas.

[0003] To improve inspection efficiency, some companies have introduced simple automated inspection equipment. However, existing equipment still has significant limitations. For example, traditional inspection equipment often uses a single inspection method and can only complete single-item inspections for surface scratches or brightness. It cannot simultaneously detect multi-dimensional defects, requiring multiple handling and inspections, which increases process complexity and inspection time. The positioning mechanism of some equipment has poor adaptability, and the socket cannot be accurately inserted during brightness inspection. In addition, the sorting function of existing equipment is imperfect, and qualified and unqualified products need to be manually sorted after inspection. This fails to achieve integrated inspection and sorting, increasing labor costs and the risk of errors.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0029] 1. The coordination of an industrial camera, a damage detection mechanism, and a brightness detection mechanism facilitates comprehensive detection of logo appearance, damage, and brightness defects, improving the comprehensiveness and accuracy of detection and enabling multi-dimensional defect detection. Furthermore, the coordination of a sorting mechanism, a turntable, and a second conveyor belt facilitates classification, marking, and transportation of logos with different test results, improving sorting efficiency and enabling automatic sorting. Furthermore, the installation of a positioning mechanism facilitates securing the plug within the limiting ring and facilitating insertion into the power socket for power supply.

[0030] 2. The analysis module processes grayscale blocks, draws outlines, and marks anomalies to accurately locate areas on the logo surface where defects may exist. The location information of these areas is then passed to the execution module.

This makes laser detection more targeted and improves the accuracy of defect detection.

[0031] 3. By performing a cleaning operation before laser scanning, it is possible to effectively distinguish whether the protrusion is caused by an attached object or a protrusion formed by the logo's own material. If the protrusion disappears after cleaning, it indicates that it is a protrusion caused by the attached object, avoiding misjudgment of it as a quality defect of the logo itself. If the protrusion still exists after cleaning, it can be determined to be a protrusion of the same material as the logo, ensuring the accuracy of the protrusion defect judgment and reducing unnecessary losses caused by misjudgment.

[0049] Example 2: See Figure 12 , the cabinet 1 is provided with an intelligent control component, which includes an acquisition module, an analysis module and an execution module;

[0050] An acquisition module acquires the image data acquired by the industrial camera 5 and the distance data acquired by the laser scanner 17, and transmits the acquired data to the analysis module;

[0051] The analysis module receives the collected data, analyzes the image data, obtains an analysis image based on the abnormal grayscale blocks, compares the grayscale values ​​in the analysis image, draws the outline of the logo, and analyzes the abnormalities within the logo outline. If it is dirty, a cleaning signal is generated and transmitted to the execution module; if it is a concave defect, a concave warning signal is generated and transmitted to the execution module; if it is a convex defect, it is cleaned and tested again. If it is still determined to be abnormal, a convex warning signal is generated and transmitted to the execution module;

[0052] The image data collected by industrial camera 5 are arranged in the order of collection time, and the images collected at the same time are sorted. The image data is gray-scale processed and divided into several gray-scale blocks of the same size according to the size of the pixel block. The gray-scale blocks are numbered according to the number of rows and columns where the image blocks are located after segmentation. The gray-scale value data of each gray-scale block is obtained and calculated. The mean grayscale value of the corresponding grayscale block in the image data and standard deviation , to calculate the mean and standard deviation Detect the fluctuation range of gray value data The setting of the grayscale value data that is not within the fluctuation range is marked as abnormal grayscale, and the number of abnormal grayscales detected is Perform statistics, if , then it is determined that the image detected at the corresponding moment is abnormal, and the acquisition moment is marked as an abnormal moment. is the preset proportional coefficient; after removing abnormal grayscale, the remaining grayscale value data is averaged Calculation of the mean value As the grayscale value data corresponding to the grayscale block;

[0053] In practical applications, It is usually set between 0.3 and 0.5. The specific value needs to be calibrated according to the logo type and the detection environment. For example, for a metal logo with a smooth surface, the local abnormal grayscale caused by reflection is less. It can be set to 0.3; for plastic logos, the surface is easily contaminated with dust, and the abnormal grayscale ratio may be higher. It can be increased to 0.4-0.5; the setting is based on a large number of sample statistics: by analyzing the image data of thousands of qualified logos, it is found that under normal circumstances, the proportion of abnormal grayscale rarely exceeds 30%, so " The judgment criteria of " can effectively filter out a small amount of anomalies caused by accidental noise (such as camera sensor error, ambient light interference); if If the value is too low (such as 0.2), a normal image with slight noise may be misjudged as abnormal; if the value is too high (such as 0.6), a large number of abnormal grayscales caused by severe dirt or defects may be missed, affecting the accuracy of subsequent detection. The number of images to be collected Linkage adjustment, when Increase (such as from 5 to 10), can be appropriately reduced To balance detection efficiency and avoid triggering overall judgment due to accidental anomalies in a single image;

[0054] Collected at the corresponding time The image with the least abnormal grayscale is selected from the image data as the analysis image, and the grayscale value of the corresponding numbered grayscale block in the analysis image is compared with the preset logo grayscale value fluctuation range. If the grayscale value of the corresponding numbered grayscale block is within the preset logo grayscale value fluctuation range, the corresponding grayscale block is determined to be the logo grayscale block; the grayscale value of the logo grayscale block is Grayscale values ​​of adjacent grayscale blocks For comparison, if , then the corresponding logo grayscale block is determined to be the logo boundary grayscale block, and the grayscale difference dividing line between the logo boundary grayscale block and the adjacent grayscale block is the logo contour line. is a preset difference threshold; the logo outline is connected and the drawn outline is compared with the logo outline. If the two are proportional, the outline is determined to be accurate;

[0055] The grayscale value fluctuation range of the preset logo is determined through strict sample statistics and calibration. Image data of at least 500 qualified logos are collected, and through grayscale value distribution analysis, the grayscale mean of all samples is taken as the basic range ± 3 times the standard deviation. For example, if the grayscale mean of a certain type of chrome-plated logo is 180 and the standard deviation is 20, the fluctuation range is set to 120-240.

[0056] The range needs to be dynamically adjusted for different materials: Metal logos have a higher grayscale range (e.g., 150-255) due to their strong reflectivity; matte plastic logos have a lower grayscale range (e.g., 80-180); logos with patterns require region-specific range settings (e.g., 60-100 for a red patterned area, 150-220 for a silver bordered area). Furthermore, changes in ambient light can affect grayscale values, so the system requires adaptive calibration: the fluctuation range is automatically updated after every 100 logos are inspected to avoid biased judgments due to light source attenuation. For new logo types, a "learning mode" is used to collect 100 samples and recalculate the range to ensure coverage of their grayscale characteristics.

[0057] Preset difference threshold Used to distinguish the logo boundary and non-border area. Its value must match the grayscale characteristics of the logo and background. For example, the grayscale difference at the boundary of a metal logo on a white background can reach 60-80, so It can be set to 40; while the black plastic logo has a smaller grayscale difference (about 30-40) against a dark background. The threshold value needs to be reduced to 25-30. The core function of this threshold is to capture "grayscale mutation": the grayscale value of the logo boundary will change dramatically due to material or color differences, while the grayscale value of internal defects (such as scratches) will change more slowly (usually less than 20). By setting The maximum grayscale difference of the internal defects can be greater than that of the internal defects to avoid misjudging the internal defects as boundaries. For example, if the maximum grayscale difference of the surface scratches on a certain car model logo is 15, then Setting it to 20 can effectively distinguish; in addition, Need to adapt to the image resolution: The grayscale changes in high-resolution images are more delicate. It can be appropriately reduced (e.g. from 40 to 30) to ensure the accuracy of boundary recognition; low-resolution images need to be increased To reduce misjudgments;

[0058] Mark the grayscale blocks with abnormal grayscale values ​​inside the contour line, randomly select a marked grayscale block, and calculate the distance data between the marked grayscale block and the nearest contour line , and the distance data and the number of its nearest contour are passed to the execution module, is the number of the corresponding marked grayscale block;

[0059] When executing module control for laser detection, the distance data transmitted is given priority. Scan the logo surface at the corresponding position and the number of its nearest contour line, and use the distance data fed back by the scan Passed to the analysis module; the analysis module feeds back the distance data Distance data at the corresponding position with the standard part If the comparison , it is determined that there is an abnormality at the detection position, is the preset difference threshold; if , it is determined that the grayscale abnormality at the detection position is caused by dirt, a cleaning signal is generated, and the cleaning signal is transmitted to the execution module;

[0060] The value of needs to be combined with the accuracy of the laser scanner and the critical size of the logo defect; the typical accuracy of the laser scanner is ±0.05mm, so It needs to be greater than twice the precision value (i.e. 0.1mm) to filter out equipment errors; for different defect types, Different settings are required: the depth of the scratch is usually small (0.05-0.2mm), Set to 0.1mm; if the depth of the concave defect is large (above 0.2mm), It can be set to 0.2mm; the setting is based on industry standards: the allowable depth of surface defects of car logos is usually 0.15mm, so Setting it to 0.15mm can be directly associated with qualified judgment; for example, when the difference between the scanning distance and the standard value exceeds 0.15mm, it is judged as an excessive defect; in addition, Part of the logo that needs to be adapted: A slight deviation in the edge area (such as 0.2mm) may not affect the appearance. It can be relaxed to 0.25mm; the central pattern area has strict requirements. Maintain 0.15mm; the system also needs to have temperature compensation function, because the metal logo will expand and contract due to temperature (about 0.03mm / ℃), and needs to be adjusted according to the real-time temperature , avoid misjudgment caused by environmental factors;

[0061] After receiving the cleaning signal, the execution module controls the cleaning robot arm provided in the detection device to clean the logo according to the corresponding position of the abnormality on the logo;

[0062] like , it is determined that there is a depression at the abnormal detection position; otherwise, it is determined that there is a bulge; when the laser scans the grayscale block with abnormal grayscale value inside the contour line, the laser moves the position within the corresponding range of the grayscale block until Stop moving and store the distance data detected during the movement Record; divide the defect location area into several laser-sized columns and record the number of columns corresponding to the defect , according to the recorded distance data Calculate the defect volume data of the defect location ;

[0063] The total number of bars corresponding to defects on the logo and total defect volume data Calculate (the total number of convexities and concavities). If the defect is a concavity, compare the corresponding data of the defect. If or , it is determined that the dent defect affects the normal use of the logo, a dent warning signal is generated, and the dent warning signal is transmitted to the execution module;

[0064] It is a counting standard based on the defect "column unit", where "laser-sized column" refers to a cylinder with a diameter equal to the laser spot (usually 0.5mm), and each column corresponds to a single scanning point of the laser; The setting should be combined with the logo size and defect visibility: small logos (such as 50mm diameter) have a small surface area, Set to 3 (i.e. the total defect coverage area does not exceed 3×0.5²×π≈2.35mm²); for large logos (e.g. 100mm in diameter), this limit can be relaxed to 5-6. The setting logic is based on the visual characteristics of the human eye: studies have shown that when the total defect area exceeds 0.5% of the logo surface area, it can be clearly perceived by the naked eye, so The total columnar area must be less than or equal to 0.5% of the logo area. For example, if the logo area is 1000mm², 0.5% is 5mm². 5÷(0.5²×π)≈6; In addition, the defect distribution also affects : Concentrated defects (such as three columns in one place) are more noticeable than scattered defects (such as one in three locations). Therefore, the system needs to give additional weight to concentrated defects (for example, two concentrated defects are equivalent to three scattered defects) to ensure that the judgment is consistent with visual perception;

[0065] (First detection) and The difference in (secondary inspection) reflects the flexibility of the inspection strategy; the volume is calculated as "single column volume × number", where single column volume = π × (0.25mm)² × defect depth (determined by the difference in laser scanning distance); Need to be slightly larger (such as 0.12mm³), because the secondary inspection is for unmarked areas, most of which are minor defects, appropriate relaxation can reduce unnecessary rework; for key areas, The threshold should be strictly 0.05mm³, and can be relaxed to 0.15mm³ in non-critical areas. In addition, the volume weights of different defect types are different: convex defects are easy to wear, and the volume threshold is 20% lower than that of concave defects (such as convex 0.08, concave 0.1), ensuring key control of high-risk defects;

[0066] After receiving the dent warning signal, the execution module controls the buzzer module in the intelligent control component to sound a buzzer warning, and displays "dent warning" on the display screen 9, and displays the number of dents, the corresponding location of the dents, and the corresponding volume of the dents, so that the staff can accurately conduct manual inspection again;

[0067] If the defect is a bulge, perform a cleaning operation first, then perform laser scanning again, and then compare the corresponding data of the defect after the scanning is completed; if or , it is determined that the concave defect affects the normal use of the logo, a raised warning signal is generated, and the raised warning signal is transmitted to the execution module. is the preset defect quantity threshold, is the preset defect volume threshold;

[0068] After receiving the dent warning signal, the execution module controls the buzzer module in the intelligent control component to sound a buzzer warning, and displays "protrusion warning" on the display screen 9, and displays the number of protrusions, the corresponding protrusion positions and the corresponding protrusion volumes, so that the staff can accurately conduct manual inspection again;

[0069] like and , then perform laser scanning on the position of the logo that is not marked with abnormalities, and then compare the total number and total volume of the corresponding columns of convex and concave again. If or or , it is determined that the concave defect affects the normal use of the logo, a raised warning signal is generated, and the raised warning signal is transmitted to the execution module. is the total volume of the secondary detection bulge, is the preset secondary detection volume threshold.

[0070] Working principle: When the present invention is used, the car luminous logo to be detected is transported to the entrance of the cabinet 1 through the first conveyor belt 2, and the mechanical arm 4 drives the grabbing mechanism to move to the top of the logo. The position sensor in the grabbing mechanism assists in positioning to ensure accurate identification of the logo position. The second motor 14 is started to drive the first bidirectional screw rod 15 to rotate, so that the two clamping rods 16 approach each other and clamp the logo. The mechanical arm 4 transfers the clamped logo to the positioning mechanism of the turntable 10. In the positioning mechanism, the third motor 22 drives the unidirectional screw rod 23 to rotate, driving the second The positioning plate 20 moves along the guide rod, adjusts the distance with the first positioning plate 19, and pulls the logo power cord. At this time, the socket at one end of the power cord contacts the limit ring 27 under the action of the guide groove. At this time, the pressure sensor 28 senses the signal, the third motor 22 stops, and the fourth motor 24 drives the second bidirectional screw 25 to rotate, so that the two clamps 26 clamp the logo. In the rotating mechanism, the first motor 11 starts, driving the first gear 12 to rotate, and through the meshing transmission with the second gear 13, the turntable 10 rotates. The turntable 10 transmits the positioned logo to the industrial camera 5, the damage detection mechanism, the brightness detection mechanism and the sorting mechanism in sequence. The industrial camera 5 captures the image of the logo appearance and preliminarily detects surface defects. The two laser scanners 17, in cooperation with the light source 18, scan the logo from top and bottom to detect physical defects such as surface damage and scratches. The first electric push rod 31 pushes the mounting block 29 to move along the slide groove, so that the power socket 30 is connected to the logo for power supply. The industrial camera 5 captures the brightness data in the illuminated state to detect optical defects such as uneven brightness and abnormal luminous area. After the detection is completed The turntable 10 sends the logo to the sorting mechanism, the pressure pump 33 pressurizes the paint in the paint bucket 32, and atomizes it through the atomizer 34. The second electric push rod 36 pushes the spray plate 35 to slide, so that the corresponding digital slot is aligned with the atomizer 34, and the number is sprayed on the logo to mark different test results. The robotic arm 4 grabs the marked logo to the second conveyor belt 3 and sends it out of the cabinet 1. The display screen 9 displays the test process and results in real time to facilitate operator monitoring. If a serious defect or equipment failure is detected, the alarm 8 will sound an alarm to remind timely processing.
