[0063] As shown in Figures 1 to 12 , the present application provides a lens module EOL detection device for comprehensive performance detection of the completed assembled lens module at the end of the production line to ensure its stable and reliable quality.

[0064] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the lens module EOL detection device of the present embodiment mainly includes a base plate 1, a four-station turntable mechanism 2, a Y-axis warehouse mechanism 3, an upper and lower material manipulator 4, a face light test module 5, a white field detection assembly 6, a cutting assembly 7, a collimator test module 8 and a black field test assembly 9.

[0065] The base plate 1 serves as the supporting foundation of the device. The four-station turntable mechanism 2 is arranged at the center of the base plate 1, and its periphery is sequentially arranged with the Y-axis warehouse mechanism 3, the upper and lower material manipulator 4, the face light test module 5, the white field detection assembly 6, the cutting assembly 7, the collimator test module 8 and the black field test assembly 9. The Y-axis warehouse mechanism 3 is connected to the upper and lower material manipulator 4, and the upper and lower material manipulator 4 is connected to the four-station turntable mechanism 2 at the first station. The face light test module 5 is connected to the four-station turntable mechanism 2 at the second station. The white field detection assembly 6 and the cutting assembly 7 are both connected to the four-station turntable mechanism 2 at the third station. The collimator test module 8 and the black field test assembly 9 are both connected to the four-station turntable mechanism 2 at the fourth station.

[0066] The seven functional units of the Y-axis hopper mechanism 3, the feeding and discharging manipulator 4, the face light test module 5, the white field detection assembly 6, the cutting assembly 7, the collimator test module 8 and the black field test assembly 9 are arranged in a ring around the four-station turntable mechanism 2. The complete EOL detection process from automatic feeding and discharging, multi-functional optical detection to qualified product sorting and output is integrated in one device, realizing "one-stop" full inspection, ensuring the comprehensive quality of the products for shipment, and avoiding the problems of high cost, large occupation and low efficiency caused by the series connection of multiple devices. The white field detection assembly 6 and the cutting assembly 7 are shared in the third station, and the collimator test module 8 and the black field test assembly 9 are shared in the fourth station. Only four physical stations are used to complete six main functions, making the device structure extremely compact and the occupation area small, greatly improving the space utilization and the compactness of the device, reducing the total number of stations required by the four-station turntable mechanism 2, simplifying the driving and control system, and reducing the manufacturing cost.

[0067] The specific working process is as follows: when the device is used as a single machine, the operator manually loads the lens module to be tested into the tray 33 of the Y-axis hopper mechanism 3. The Y-axis hopper mechanism 3 conveys the tray 33 containing the lens module to the lower side of the feeding and discharging manipulator 4. The feeding and discharging manipulator 4 clamps the lens module from the tray 33 and conveys it to the carrying test seat 23 of the four-station turntable mechanism 2 at the first station. Then, the four-station turntable mechanism 2 is driven by the servo motor 22 to sequentially transfer the lens module to the second, third and fourth stations.

[0068] At the second station, the lens module is connected with the face light test module 5 to perform tests such as sharpness, 0C, color gray scale, SNR and rotation. The sharpness test at this station is for small field angle lenses. At the third station, the lens module is connected with the white field detection assembly 6 to perform tests such as bright and dark spots, stains, white balance, dark angle and AWB. At the fourth station, the lens module is first connected with the collimator test module 8 to perform tests such as sharpness, FOV and COD. The sharpness test at this station is for large field angle lenses. Then, the black field test assembly 9 is actuated to perform black field test on the same lens module. After all the tests are completed, the turntable 21 returns to the first station, and the feeding and discharging manipulator 4 puts the qualified products back into the tray 33 and the unqualified products into the NG tray 34 according to the test results.

[0069] When the device is combined with the up and down process into a line body, the cutting component 7 of the last process will deliver the lens module to be tested to the lower part of the up and down mechanical arm 4. The up and down mechanical arm 4 will clamp and place it on the bearing test seat 23 of the four-station turntable mechanism 2. The four-station turntable mechanism 2 is provided with four buffer seats 24. The four-station turntable mechanism 2 will sequentially dock with the face light test module 5 at the second station, with the white field detection component 6 at the third station, with the collimator test module 8 at the fourth station, and with the black field test component 9 at the fourth station. Then it will return to the first station, the up and down mechanical arm 4 will place the qualified products on the buffer seat 24, the unqualified products will be placed in the NG tray 34, and the new lens module to be tested will be placed on the empty bearing test seat 23 or the fourth-station turntable mechanism 2. The qualified products on the buffer seat 24 will flow with the turntable 21, and when they reach the third station, they will be clamped by the parallel cylinder clamping jaw 73 of the cutting component 7 and delivered to the next process device.

[0070] As shown in Figure 3 , the Y-axis bin mechanism 3 includes a bin 31 and a tray Y-axis carrying module 32. The bin 31 can accommodate multiple layers of trays 33, and the tray Y-axis carrying module 32 is connected to the bin 31 and used to take and place the trays 33 from the bin 31 and move the trays 33 in the Y direction.

[0071] The bin 31 is designed as a multi-layer structure and can stack and store multiple trays 33 containing lens modules to be tested, solving the problem of frequent manual feeding and providing material support for automatic detection. The bottom of the bin 31 is connected to a bin lifting mechanism 35, which can drive the entire bin 31 to lift in the Z-axis direction, so that a certain layer of trays 33 in the bin 31 can be connected to the tray Y-axis carrying module 32. The bin lifting mechanism 35 is composed of a bin lead screw 351, an optical shaft 352, a support plate 354, etc. The bottom of the bin 31 is connected to a hanging plate 353 through four optical shafts 352, forming a lifting unit with the bin 31. The bin lead screw 351 is rotatably arranged at the bottom of the bin 31 and the hanging plate 353, and moves up and down with the bin 31 and the hanging plate 353. The power source is arranged on the hanging plate 353 and connected to the bin lead screw 351 through a transmission structure to drive the bin lead screw 351 to rotate and lift the bin 31.

[0072] Preferably, the bin 31 is a box with openings on both sides along the Y-axis, and the two side walls along the X-axis direction are provided with a plurality of limiting strips to support the trays 33. Adjacent trays 33 are provided with gaps to facilitate the taking and placing of the trays 33.

[0073] The Y-axis material bin mechanism 3 constructs an efficient and stable automatic feeding system through the innovative multi-layer stacking design and precise lifting feeding mechanism, has stable structure, strong bearing capacity, greatly increases the material reserve of single feeding, significantly reduces the feeding frequency of the operator, completely replaces the traditional manual disc taking, disc placing and carrying physical labor, and realizes the full automation of the feeding link.

[0074] The bottom of the equipment base plate 1 is fixedly connected with a supporting plate 354 through four vertical rods 355. The material bin lead screw 351 and the light shaft 352 pass through the equipment base plate 1 and the supporting plate 354 and can move along the Z-axis direction. The screw sleeve of the material bin lead screw 351 is fixed at the bottom of the supporting plate 354. When the material bin lead screw 351 rotates, the relative displacement between the material bin lead screw 351 and the screw sleeve occurs along the Z-axis direction, so as to drive the material bin 31 and the material disc 33 to perform the lifting action, that is, the relative displacement between the material bin 31 and the equipment base plate 1 occurs along the Z-axis direction, so as to realize the lifting of the material bin 31. The light shaft 352 is further provided with a guide sleeve 356 fixed on the supporting plate 354, which can precisely guide the light shaft 352 and effectively limit the radial movement of the light shaft 352, so as to ensure that the material bin 31 can only move linearly along the Z-axis during the lifting process, prevent shaking and deflection, and greatly improve the stability and repeat positioning accuracy of the movement.

[0075] Preferably, the supporting plate 354 is provided with a avoiding part for avoiding the power device and the transmission device of the material bin lifting mechanism 35.

[0076] Preferably, gaps are arranged between the material bin lead screw 351 and the light shaft 352 and the base plate 1 and the supporting plate 354, so as to facilitate the movement of the material bin lead screw 351 and the light shaft 352.

[0077] The equipment base plate 1 is further provided with a position sensor 357 for positioning the lifting position of the material bin 31. The photoelectric sensor cooperates with the through hole on the material bin 31. When the photoelectric sensor is aligned with the corresponding through hole, the surface grain bin moves to the corresponding position. The equipment base plate 1 is further provided with a protective cover 358 for protecting the material bin 31.

[0078] The material disc Y-axis carrying module 32 is driven by a synchronous belt electric sliding table 43 structure.

[0089] As shown in Figure 6 The face light test module 5 includes a card lifting mechanism 51 and a relay mirror module 52, both of which are fixed on the equipment base plate 1. The relay mirror module 52 is located directly below the card lifting mechanism 51, so as to adjust the positions of the relay mirror 524 and the card 54 according to the parameters of the lens module, customer requirements, and the parameters of the relay mirror module 52.

[0090] The figure card lifting mechanism 51 comprises four mounting seats 511, three optical shafts 352, a figure card mounting plate 519, a figure card 54, a top plate 514, a motorized lead screw 515, a driven lead screw 516, a synchronous belt assembly 517 and a light shield 53.

The connecting plate 512 of the other group of mounting seats 511 is provided with the driven lead screw 516, the top end of the driven lead screw 516 is also arranged on the top plate 514, and the lead screw sleeve of the driven lead screw 516 is fixed with the figure card mounting plate 519, so that when the figure card mounting plate 519 and the figure card 54 move up and down along the optical shaft 352 driven by the motorized lead screw 515, the lead screw sleeve of the driven lead screw 516 moves synchronously, so that the whole driving structure is more stable and smooth. The synchronous belt assembly 517 is arranged on the top of the top plate 514, and the power is transmitted between the motorized lead screw 515 and the driven lead screw 516 through the synchronous belt assembly 517. The structure of the synchronous belt assembly 517 can drive at least one driven lead screw 516 to move through only one synchronous belt, which is simple and reliable, and the tension of the synchronous belt is maintained through multiple tensioning wheels. The connecting plate 512 and the top plate 514 are also provided with a scale 518, which is convenient for observing the position of the figure card mounting plate 519. The top of the light shield 53 is connected with the top plate 514, and the middle and lower part of the light shield 53 is connected with the adapter plate 513, so as to realize stable installation of the light shield 53.

[0091] Preferably, the adapter plate 513 is a V-shaped structure, and the two side walls are respectively screwed with the two connecting plates 512. By arranging the adapter plate 513, the adapter plate 513 can not only install the optical shaft 352, but also install the light shield 53. In the case of ensuring that the figure card mounting plate 519 can stably move up and down along the optical shaft 352, the number of optical shafts 352 is reduced from four to three, which reduces the cost.

[0093] The face light test module 5 is integrated with the relay mirror module 52 through the integrated picture card lifting mechanism 51, and high-precision and multifunctional optical detection is realized. The picture card lifting mechanism 51 adopts a double-screw rod structure in which a driving screw rod 515 is driven and a driven screw rod 516 is synchronously connected through a synchronous belt assembly 517, and three optical axes 352 are guided to ensure the stability and high precision of the movement of the picture card 54 in the Z axis direction, and a scale 518 is combined to facilitate real-time observation of the position. The innovative V-shaped adapter plate 513 not only realizes the integrated installation of the optical axis 352 and the light shield plate 53, but also reduces the number of optical axes from four to three, thereby reducing the cost. The relay mirror module 52 realizes multi-dimensional fine adjustment of the relay mirror 524 through the XY axis and Z axis precision adjustment tables, thereby ensuring accurate alignment of the optical path. At the same time, the light shield plate 53 effectively isolates the light interference from the adjacent collimator test module 8. Through the precise mechanical structure and ingenious integrated layout, the design not only ensures the accuracy and repeatability of the tests of clarity, C, color gray scale, SNR and rotation, but also improves the universality and reliability of the equipment, thereby providing a solid foundation for comprehensive evaluation of the imaging quality of the lens module.

[0094] As shown in Figure 7 , the picture card mounting plate 519 is a plate body with a square hole, the picture card 54 is mounted at the square hole, one side of the picture card 54 is hinged to one side of the square hole through a hinge, the picture card mounting plate 519 is hinged to a nitrogen spring 543, the other end of the nitrogen spring 543 is hinged to the picture card 54, and then the angle of the picture card 54 can be adjusted through the nitrogen spring 543, so that more angle images of the picture card 54 are obtained, and calibration is more accurate. The working medium of the nitrogen spring 543 is gas, and compared with the adjusting rod such as the hydraulic rod with a liquid working medium, the nitrogen spring 543 has the advantages of no pollution.

The chart 54 has a closed state, in which the second hinge seat 542 is in contact with the chart mounting plate 519, and the hinged position of the nitrogen spring 543 with the first hinge seat 541 is higher than the hinged position of the nitrogen spring 543 with the second hinge seat 542, so that the chart 54 can be self-locked in the closed state, facilitating accurate adjustment of the working pressure of the nitrogen spring 543, and eliminating the need for an external limiting mechanism when adjusting the working pressure of the nitrogen spring 543. The chart 54 is also provided with a handle 544 to facilitate manual opening of the chart 54 from the self-locked state.

[0096] When the lens module flows to the second station, it is directly below the relay lens module 52, and the lens module captures the image of the chart 54 through the relay lens 524. The control and test module in the test box 234 analyzes the obtained image to complete the clarity test (small field angle lens module test), OC test, color gray scale test, SNR test and rotation test. The specific test method can be realized by using the existing technology.

[0097] By providing a hinge structure with a square hole on the chart mounting plate 519 and connecting the first hinge seat 541 and the second hinge seat 542 with the nitrogen spring 543, flexible adjustment and reliable self-locking of the angle of the chart 54 are achieved. When the chart 54 is closed, the hinged points of the nitrogen spring 543 form a high position constraint, and under the action of gas pressure, natural self-locking is achieved, eliminating the need for an additional limiting mechanism to stably maintain the closed state and facilitating accurate adjustment of the working pressure. The design of the handle 544 facilitates manual opening. The structure utilizes the characteristics of the nitrogen spring, such as no pollution and long service life, not only supports multi-angle expansion of the chart 54 to meet different calibration needs and improve test accuracy, but also takes into account the convenience of operation and the reliability of maintenance, effectively ensuring the flexibility and stability of key optical parameter tests such as clarity, OC, color gray scale, SNR and rotation.

The specific test method can be realized by using the prior art.

[0100] By sharing the third station by the cutting material assembly 7 and the white field detection assembly 6, the functional integration and the efficient use of space are realized. The transfer X-axis linear motor 71 and the transfer Z-axis linear motor 72 constitute a high-precision two-dimensional moving platform, the parallel cylinder clamp jaw 73 drives the qualified product on the buffer seat 24 to be accurately clamped and placed on the cutting material seat 75, and the automatic transfer to the next process is completed. At the same time, the layout of the cutting material X-axis synchronous belt electric sliding table 74 provides installation space for the white field detection assembly 6, and the two work cooperatively.

The Y-axis stock bin mechanism 3 automatically sends the whole tray of lens modules to be tested to the material taking position, and the loading and unloading manipulator 4 automatically completes all actions of material taking, loading, unloading and sorting, completely replacing the traditional manual loading, manual testing and manual sorting and other tedious and error-prone operations. Not only the labor cost is greatly reduced, but more importantly, the influence of human factors such as fatigue and negligence on the detection process is eliminated, ensuring that each product undergoes a completely consistent standardized process, greatly improving the reliability and repeatability of the detection result. The method completes the four key detections of face light testing, white field detection, parallel light tube testing and black field testing in a compact device through the orderly circulation of the four-station turntable mechanism 2. This “one-stop” detection mode ensures the comprehensive quality of the products leaving the factory and avoids the quality risks caused by missed detection.

[0112] The third object of the application is to disclose a lens module EOL detection method using the lens module EOL detection device of any one of the above. The method comprises the following steps:

[0113] T1. The cutting assembly of the previous process transmits the lens module to be tested to the lower side of the loading and unloading manipulator 4; T2. The loading and unloading manipulator 4 clamps the lens module to be tested and places it on the bearing test seat 23 of the four-station turntable mechanism 2 at the first station, while the qualified products detected in the previous cycle are moved from the bearing test seat 23 to the buffer seat 24; T3. The four-station turntable mechanism 2 drives the lens module to be tested to sequentially circulate to the second station, the third station and the fourth station, respectively, to perform face light testing, white field detection, parallel light tube testing and black field testing, and when the qualified products detected in the previous cycle on the buffer seat 24 circulate to the third station together with the lens module to be tested, the cutting assembly 7 clamps the qualified products on the buffer seat 24 and transmits them to the next process equipment; T4. The four-station turntable mechanism 2 returns to the first station, the loading and unloading manipulator 4 places the newly detected qualified products on the empty buffer seat 24, transports the unqualified products back to the designated position of the Y-axis stock bin mechanism 3, and places the new lens module to be tested on the empty bearing test seat 23, entering the next detection cycle.

[0114] The method discards the traditional material disc loading and unloading mode, and directly transmits the lens module to be tested by the cutting assembly of the previous process, and directly transmits the qualified products to the next process equipment by the cutting assembly 7 after detection, realizing online detection. The lens module continuously flows between the stations, eliminating the interruption of production rhythm caused by disc changing and waiting, greatly improving the smoothness and overall efficiency of the whole production line. The buffer seat 24 is used to realize parallel operation of detection and transmission, eliminating waiting time.

[0115] The above merely provides the preferred embodiment of the present application and not intended to limit the present application. Accordingly, any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall fall within the scope of the present application.
